Was looking for storage for extra linens , was surprise when it arrived it looked better than I thought , this piece fits will in a urban casual environment, it has a look like furniture , even thought it is for outside poolside , I've put it in my living room and it look wonderful / it is very roomy I have several comforters ,sheets sets, rugs, and still have room I love it,,,
A bought a month ago to store my outdoor cushions and pillows. It is well built and very easy to put together. While the top is solid, the sides and bottom are vented. I was under the impression that it was water proof, my mistake. I would say it it sheds water from the sides with the angled slats, not waterproof.
Great alternative to plastic outdoor storage containers but wood has its own set of tradeoffs. This item was delivered with no damage and was easy to assemble. We removed the safety/anti-slam hinge so that it completely closed but you'll want to install it if you have small children to protect their fingers. It actually does keep rain out of the box while allowing air to pass through the slats which is a nice feature. The instructions recommend applying a polyurethane coat annually to preserver the wood and color. After 2 weeks in full sun, we noticed a few a few cracks developed in the top cover which is not unheard of for wood. I was planning to apply clear caulk to avoid rain from leaking into the box. Finally, the stain appeared to be more reddish than showed in the picture. We were able to fit cushions for 4 outdoor chairs (back and bottom pieces totaled 8 cushions of medium depth). I would not let adults sit on top of the box - it will crack given wood is not thick. Overall, I would recommend but be warned that while wooden boxes look nicer than plastic, they require annual maintenance.
box easily assembled with a bit of patience - be cautious and use the manual screw driver as the pre drilled holes feel like they will strip screws easily. but overall box was delivered undamaged and went together without issue. mine is under roof so i do not know how weather would effect.
No problems arose durring assembly. All the parts were there and holes were drilled in the correct spots etc. The wood appears decent in quality. The clearcoat / stain finish seems like it will repell rain water for a season but I'll be brushing on my own at seasons end before snow hits so this very reasonably priced real wood storage box will last more than a year. The slats / louvers the sides are made from are not heavy duty so some care when moving or using the box is a good idea. Not tough enough to trust teen aged folks to touch unless you want broken louvers if that helps.
I like the nice size of this deck box and it can also serve as an additional bench depending on where you place it on the patio. However, it did have some nicks/damage on the corners and on the front bottom portion when it arrived so I was not pleased with that, but otherwise a nice purchase and it holds a lot of pillows or if you have pool toys it would be ideal.
I am giving an average review until I put the bench together. Opened and all parts there; great looking wood, appears to be solid. Got here really quickly. Only con I would give at this point is that the packaging wasn't in good shape and the tape was pulling away from the carton.
