Before I bought this 130 gallon lifetime product, I did research several reviews which I found to be very good. Once the product arrived it was easy to assemble. It’s important to read the instructions thoroughly before proceeding with the assembly. Make sure you match up the proper screws which are self tapping, a great convenience. I like the way they laid out the tools needed which was very helpful. I did look into third video which was helpful though the instructions also are very good as well. I highly recommend this product and it looks like it will give many years of service and has double wall construction. WG, Oviedo Florida

I have had this deck box for several years now, guessing about 8. It has always been outside on my deck on the south side of the house in direct sunlight. It has stored my kids toys and equipment and kept them dry and well protected. It has also served as extra seating when company is over. This has held up extremely well! The hinge for the top did pull a screw but I’m not sure if that was due to the kids abuse, leaving it open in windy conditions or design. I could fix it myself with some epoxy but decided just to order a new one. I was willing to spend the bit of $ to replace it since it is a much better quality than other products out there. To my surprise, when I called Lifetime they sent me a new one as a courtesy. This company is awesome! I have Several different products made by Lifetime and have been very happy with all of them. I am and will be a loyal customer not just for the quality but also their terrific customer service!!

We received this to replace a Rubbermaid one we had purchased through Sam's Club. The Rubbermaid one was of terrible construction and the top lid would fall down on your head easily. I saw this one and it looked better made so we ended up with two of them. The first one took a lot longer than expected as it was hard to screw in all the parts, but it is well made. The second box which we put together several weeks later went together much easier. Overall since they are outside and contain chair cushions, I have not had any leaks but it still shifts meaning the lid is off which if you put a lock on it should cure that. I haven't gotten around to it yet but plan to prior to the winter.

We have had this item for over 3 yrs and it's been stored outside in the nastiest of Michigan winters. It's withheld storms through & through. It's easily washed up, snaps apart for cleaning & sturdy. Keeps everything clean & dry...even some of the largest lawn items! We love it!

I now have two of the Lifetime storage boxes, a medium size and the 130 gallon size. Both were easy to put together if you can read and study the pictures. Both are weather tight. The 130 gallon size is perfect for our pool toys including the long noodles.

I bought this approx 4 yrs ago. NO FADING. Still stays dry and bug free inside. Very attractive and sturdy. It has weathered many storms. My kids often climb and sit on it, as well as my 225lb husband. Lots of room. We store outdoor toys, a tricycle, Baseball & hockey gear inside. LOVE IT!

This is the perfect place to store all my cushions for the winter to patio table and chairs, and during the summer great place to hide away small gardening equipment for easy access keeping my yard clean and neat just the way I like it! Makes great extra seating also.

I bought this bin and placed it on the dock by our boat. It is very water resistant, sturdy has by far the best hinges and can take a lot of weight on the lid. I had other bins previously for the same application and they barely lasted a season. Had to junk them. I would give this higher stars but they they only allow five.

I just put it together. Beautifully designed and built. Attractive addition to our deck. I wish it was an inch taller as it is a bit tight on the inside, at last for the cushions we have. 140 gallon? My only suggestion are the assembly instructions. They should be more clearly written. Had to redo a couple of steps. One final thoufght: Good to see a great product made in the USA!

Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. Like the other reviews say, it's designed well. However, after sitting on my knees on top of it there are two indentations. It doesn't impair the use, but it was disappointing. You can see the interior structure trying to poke through the surface on the lid.
