I just put my box together. Is there a trick to getting the top to "snap" on?

Hi, mine seems to fit on pretty easily. Try turning it a half turn it sits in place but really doesnt snap on.

Mine snapped on easily... do note that top snap tabs (mating tabs) are only on two sides and must line up with the similar taps on box which likewise are only on two sides... if you rotate the top one quarter turn the tabs do not line up.

No...it does not snap, click or zip into place...that's the problem I addressed in my initial review...bungee cords are my solution sadly.

I have treid everything. I know the ottom hinge pieces are locked in and I still can't get it to stick on top.

It took me one or two tries....undo it and set that side first and push down fairly hard. only when you feel it "click" (and it's subtle) should you move on to the other side. If this doesn't work, definitely let them know and get another one, since once I got my on, it has stayed on beautifully. I remember though that there was a moment or two when I thought one side might not snap, but it did.

The way I figured it out was by watching YouTube videos. It's a little difficult to put them together on your first try though. I hope this helps.

Yes. That is what I did. Snapped the cover off the new box and onto the existing box without changing anything inside.

I struggled with it too (all pieces are heavy). My solution was, instead of trying to screw the poll in, I kept the poll steady and span the marble base the opposite way which snapped on pretty easy. Getting help from someone else should make it easier too. Hope this helps.

Now it's ok? That time after I receive it, at the beginning I can't "snap" the wheels on too. Just use force and knock it to put it on.

Twist (like you would a jar top) and turn it. It will go down and then secure it by turning it into place.

LOL! I'm glad I'm not the only one. I had the same issue....I had someone cut a hole and then screw the top in...it was a pain...

The instructions tell you to assemble the top and botyom base before doing the rest....I can check to see if I still have the assembly instruction.s I threw my Whitmor closet out. What is your email address?

It should just snap right on. I just tried it and with a little force it just went in.

None. I put it together with no problems ; everything snaps together easily.

I had the very same problem but the answer is quite simple. The whole top lifts off. Good luck!

Try switching around the feet and don't tighten anything until you get all the bolts through. If anything, you might have to drill a little, but I didn't have to. Just keep it kinda loose, until you get everything in.

Read the directions slowly!And make sure you assemble it right the 1st time otherwise break out screw diver.Thus, make sure music box orientation is correct AND the divets they tell you about are hard to see make sure those are positioned as displayed in assembly instructions

In mine, the panel sits in the bottom without attaching/or being nailed in place. Once you put the whole thing together, put the bottom panel inside the bench and it should rest on the frame securely-the way a boxspring sits on a frame. I was pretty confused too. Also, I had many leftover hinge parts and screws I couldn't figure out where to put, but it is assembled stably. Hope this helps.

Make sure the tension knob is all the way to the left. If you look at the instructions, in image 8B (step 8 and the image labeled B) pull up on the piece that the #19 is attached to. Don't be scared to give it a little muscle, it wont snap. For me it would've been a lot easier with a 2nd person there, but you can still get it done solo.
