YITAHOME 45 Gallon Deck Box, Outdoor Storage Box for Patio Cushions, Outdoor Tools, Gardening Tools, Sports Equipment, and Throw Pillows, Lockable and Waterproof, Black

Nice! Tool-less and not hard to assembly, although I will add my usual complaint about how manufacturers tend to provide paper directions with diagrams too small for people with not great vision. When it's done, it's sturdy, roomy. Tough plastic which could pass for wood if you don't get TOO close. Would buy another.

Pros - Great Price - Easy to Assemble - Great LooksCons - Not as Sturdy as I would have likedI bought this to replace my pool chemical box that was probably 16 years old and had seen better days (it came with the house). My lawn crew had eaten a couple of holes in the corner with the weed eater, so it was time to replace it. I searched many different products and did not want to spend $300+, so I settled on this container for its price and aesthetics. When I received the box I was surprised by its light weight. All of the parts were there and carefully packaged.I highly recommend studying the instructions COMPLETELY before assembling. The instructions are nothing but pictures with only a few cautionary notes. They kept saying to use a rubber mallet, but I just used my hands to snap/pop it all together. While putting it together I was concerned that the box was not very sturdy, but as I finished up I saw that it was better than I originally believed. Assembly time was less than 45 minutes and I had no help. If you use a drill to drive the screws, make sure that you do NOT over-tighten the screws. I has mine set to release on a scale of 3 out of 10 and still stripped 2 or 3 screws.I found that if it is on a flat surface it is pretty stable and strong. If it is not on a flat surface the box will get wonky and the top not lay flat. I do not recommend sitting on the top hinged lid. The lid is still a little too flexible for my taste, so only lift it from the middle. The piston hinges work very well, but I am sure that eventually the chlorine will corrode them up as was the case with the previous box.Because it needs the flat surface, I bought three 8-foot cedar 2x4's and cut them to build a frame (55-1/2" x 26") with an longitudinal center board to support to bottom of the box. If you are not going to set this on flat cement, then I highly recommend building this frame.After placing it on the ground and leveling (very important), I secured the box to the frame with screws and large washers along the center board at the bottom of the box. The frame raises the box up off the ground and hopefully will protect it from the weed eater. I do plan on mounting aluminum plates to the frame at the corners for protecting the wood from the weed eater.All in all, a good buy.

If you take the assembly slowly and carefully - using your brain - despite the terrible instructions and pictures it is very easy to put together.It would be easier with two, but I did it fine by butting it up to the side of the house to hold the lid up while I attached it.Once together it is quite lovely. Looks fancy and way more expensive than it is. The 120-gallon one is super spacious and watertight. I am going to spray inside and out with natural anti-rodent and wasp spray just to be sure, but I am excited to not have to replace stuff next season because it's been eaten or otherwise ruined by either the weather or living pests.The damper lid hinges are the icing on the cake. It's super sturdy and can be used as extra seating.Highly recommend.

Ordered this box and it was delivered in excellent condition. The assembly instructions leave a LOT to your common sense. The pictures are not clear and the brief, multi-language written instructions with each picture are not easy to understand. (Yes, my husband and I are both college graduates.) During assembly, we had an issue understanding the instructions and I contacted the company directly - not through Amazon. The person I was text-chatting with didn't know the answer, but I got an email within 24 hours with the best solution and we were able to complete assembly.Box is sturdy, strong, comfortable to sit on, looks great and works wonderfully for storing our deck stuff. We've only had it out a few days, so i can't attest to the weatherproof claims. It hasn't rained yet!The only reason I gave it only 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the difficult-to-understand assembly instructions.

Deck box looks amazing and love that you can sit on it; it was easy to put together and is strong; will work well. It came with a broken hinge part, and I contacted the seller, who then contacted the manufacturer, and they sent me a replacement part. So A+ for customer service! Very pleased with this purchase.

I purchased the 120-gallon outdoor storage container and I’m very happy with it. Assembly was manageable solo, but I’d recommend having a second person to make it easier. Once put together, it’s exactly what I needed—plenty of weatherproof storage for my patio. It’s sturdy, spacious, and keeps everything protected from the elements. Great product, just plan for a bit of effort during setup.

It's a nice-looking deck box. It snaps together easily enough, much like other resin storage boxes. A couple of the panels were flimsy, but have more integrity once the box is assembled. I picked this 80 gallon box based on the positive reviews and its ideal size for my space. The downside: screw holes do not match up to the piston hinges. I was only able to sink 1 of 3 screws into the lower bracket once the upper hinge segment was attached to the lid. Seems like it will hold firmly without the additional screws....for now. I also have 2 Keter boxes (120+ gallon) on the property that had precise hinge fittings and snapped together to form a more rigid unit.
