Rubbermaid Patio Chic Outdoor Storage Cube, Resin, Dark Teak, 57 Gallon

This was a nightmare to assemble. I had intended to put it together myself, but its a two-person job. My much-stronger husband helped me, and he even struggled with it. Is this design the best the Rubbermaid engineers can do?

Overall I am satisfied with the quality and the look of the item. The boxes came in all ripped and opened so I was a little concern of damage. The boxes also smelled like they been in the back of a warehouse for years.

I would never buy this again. The instruction were okay enough. My 12 yo and I figured it out. Words would be nice. There's no locking area like the photo shows. No you cannot lock it if that's what you're looking for, which I was. No hinge. Flimsy. The screws don't tighten as well as Suncast. And well, I'm amazed this one had all its parts. By the time it arrived the box was opened on the bottom and the top...completely. Sad seller.

Do not try to order this if you want to save time and effort. The instructions for this patio storage deck were very bad. There were two of us trying to understand and construct it, but couldn't make sense of it. We gave up after an hour and retuning this. We have another patio storage from Suncast which was easy to set up, have ordered another one from there. Good luck!

I thought it said "Easy Assembly" which is false. It is a solid product but directions have no words only pictures for assembly. When I saw a screwdriver and power drill were required I knew I'd be challenged. A bag full of phillips head screws is included. We got it together and it is a nice useful addition to our deck to keep our chew crazy dog away from cushions. But you should expect to be challenged on assembly.
