We ordered this to put on our new deck. I'll be honest...even though we knew the measurements, it's really big and roomy!!! Almost too big! But it's perfect for what we need-a place to put things when the weather is bad. The instructions were confusing at first because there were only pictures for most of the steps, but we were able to put it together in about a half hour. It's sturdy and will hopefully last for years. Be warned-it says you can use it for extra seating, but the limit is 250 pounds and the thing is big enough to easily seat two adults. But to keep the weight limit, an adult and a kid would be about it. It's also large enough to use as a serving area...throw on a tablecloth and set out your food. I think this was an excellent purchase and would buy it again!

Put it together fairly easily and quickly. One bolt hole was slightly crooked and that of course was the last bolt. I ended up having to drill it out slightly as no matter what I did I couldn’t get it to go through as there wasn’t enough room for it at the angle the hole was drilled. Other than that everything was smooth sailing. I bought this deck box to store bags of grass seed so mice don’t get into them. I’ve used smaller totes in the past and they’ve worked so I figured this work also work well. I guess we shall see.

I have had this deck box for a while and it has served its purpose well. When the Assembly, Deck Box Gas Springs, went bad I contacted Lifetime for a price quote for two of the Assembly, Deck Box Gas Springs. Too my surprise, these two items were sent to me at no cost. I wasn't aware that the deck box was still in warranty. The product is great and so is the company.

We live near the Gulf of Mexico. I was looking for something to store my outdoor cushions. This box is perfect. My Grandson and his 11 yr. Old daughter assembled it for me, and I am very pleased with how it looks. I also like the feature of the lid not slamming down. A plus in my book. My cushions are now dry and clean when I need them.

Arrived at our residence sooner than projected. Assembly was straight forward; instructions were succinct with sketches which reinforced the assembly process. One person - about a half hour. Massive storage capacity and exactly what was expected and needed for garage storage.

I purchased this for storage on my dock for boat covers and miscellaneous boating "stuff" such as skis, tow ropes, tubes and extra life jackets. Holds a great amount of material. Assembly went well even though just detailed drawings for each step. Took about an hour and a half with no outside help. Be careful not to over tighten the screws when using a socket wrench as you can easily strip the plastic threads cut by the screws. I would stop the second the screws feel pressure of being tight. I did not strip any but could have if not careful. This is a very well made and strong storage unit but bear in mind it is not a steel safe even though it is lockable. A great asset to any deck or dock.

I had bought two of the 130 gallon Outdoor Storage Deck Boxes one year apart and for some unknown reason on one of them the hardware completed rusted (the second box is fine). I called Lifetime customer service, explained my situation and was prepared to pay for new hardware. I was informed that a replacement package would be sent free of charge. Can't say enough about the service I received and am proud to buy American made products. Highly recommend Lifetime Products, Inc. Five Stars all the way!!!

This box wasn't difficult to assemble. It fits together nice and tight. It's a great addition to the back yard where it houses pool floats and chair cushions. I wish we would have bought this years ago. Nice and sturdy, can be used to sit on, too.

Even after having the product for a year before opening as well as not purchasing the product from the manufacture it was quick and painless to get some parts that were missing from the box. They did not have to do that however they did it as a courtesy without cost now that’s service!

In theory this seems like a great buy—it’s a nice size and seems like it would be easy to put together. However, it is not clear which screws go where since they are not labeled and the screw diagram doesn’t distinguish them. Even the YouTube video doesn’t show which screws go where. One of the cylinders would not easily pop on so that’s a problem.
