Keter Springwood 80 Gallon Resin Outdoor Storage Box for Patio Furniture Cushions, Pool Toys, and Garden Tools with Handles, Brown

The storage box was purchased solely for the purpose of storing some lawn chair cushions. The storage box is flimsy and cheaply made, and it bulged when you put a cushion inside, causing the lid to fall off. As a result, when it rained, the cushions became wet. I figured I'd be able to deal with it because it's a large item and I'd already thrown out the Box. When I look at the wet lawn cushions and the money wasted on the box, I can't help but feel disappointed. When looking for a storage box like this, please consider higher-quality options.

I had high expectations for this product, but it is simply not durable enough to withstand everyday use. One of the plastic ridges in the bottom piece (M1) cracked immediately from the pressure required to "click" it into the side pieces (Cl1), and the plastic pieces used to hold the lid in an upright position were damaged/weakened when I had to slightly bend the anchor pieces on the end for insertion, as per the manual's instructions. For the price, it isn't tough enough. A much sturdier preassembled equivalent could be found in the home and garden section of almost any big box store. Except for the lid, the plastic is extremely thin. I can't imagine this item being able to hold anything heavier than 5 pounds without causing damage (and in a storage bin this size, the contents are almost certainly heavier than 5 pounds). Given how flimsy and thin the frame is, the idea that it could be used as a bench seems ridiculous. I'm a little apprehensive about sitting on it. Instead of going through the trouble, go to Lowe's and get something durable.

This item appears to do what it says on the tin. It was very simple to put together, and the instructions were clear. It would have been a 5 if I had only ordered one of these products. The plastic on the second container, on the other hand, was defective due to the manufacturing process. The pieces did not fit together properly, and one of the latches did not click as a result of this. I had to take out my scissors and cut away the excess plastic. Moreover, despite no visible damage to the box, the top of the second one had a large dent in it. Clearly, the company that built the second one did not perform a thorough quality check on their product, but it should still function properly.

It should be fine if you plan on leaving it in a corner of your patio to hold some items you won't use very often, but if you plan on opening and closing it frequently, allow for children jumping on it. Actual seating is desired to be used frequently, particularly by groups of people or those who are particularly heavy. Something else is what I'd buy. It took a lot of effort to put together. We eventually got it, but the pieces barely fit together and one of the end caps was missing. I'm going to leave it in the corner of my patio to store some rarely used items. I'm not going to allow anyone to sit on it. As far as plastic boxes go, this one is quite attractive. But it's a waste of time. Just be aware of what you're getting yourself into and what your requirements are. I decided to give it a shot. It looked like a box to me. It can't be that bad, right? I should've waited and gotten a nicer one. I think I'll have to replace it sooner than I'd like.

At the very least, for our purposes. Because the hinges are made of plastic, we are concerned that they will break. I was also worried that because it was made of plastic, it would appear cheap, but I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on wood. We're using it for storage, and it's exactly what we needed for the price. Much nicer to look at than a clear storage box. The brown color matches our patio and brick wall. If you're undecided, give it a shot and put it together before deciding. We think it's perfect now that it's all put together!.

I was under the impression that this would hold the amount of items shown in the image. Perhaps if the top was a little heavier, it would stay closed. Very let down. I didn't want to enlarge the hole for a lock, so I filled it with books to keep it closed. Which leads me to believe that a lock would not keep the top shut. As shown in Figure 3, the sides continue to rise. Weights on both corners are the only way to keep it completely close. I'm glad I kept the box instead of throwing it away. I'm considering giving it back.

I really like the look of this storage box, and it was probably the simplest assembly I've ever done. One of the panels had a crack, so I didn't give it five stars. It's a little too flimsy for my liking, and when you put something in that's a little too big and it rests on one of the panels, it pushes the panels outward, making it difficult to close. I wish it were a little tougher in that regard, but I keep it under a terrace and am not concerned about water getting into it.

We won't be able to return it because it's armed and the envelope box has been cut open. Please let us know what steps we should take next.
