I read directions and watched video on assembly. Was extra careful and got it assembled. Did not go together as easy as shown in video, but with help from my wife we managed. I like that it is very solid an well constructed. Seemed very big, but I filled it and got all the bbq stuff off the patio.

We just completed construction of our pool and needed a place to store pool cleaning equipment. This 130 gallon deck box did the job! Quality can't be topped by any other product (we looked around the house & realized we have 5 other Lifetime products). The hinged lid works great and as a bonus provides extra seating. The look is contemporary and it fits in with our furniture & Florida lifestyle. A great buy.

We have had our deck box for 5 years. It sets in our campsite in the middle of our woods in Wisconsin. It’s seen lots of snow, thunderstorms cold and hot weather over the seasons and it’s held up extremely well. We even had a bear “play” with it, overturning it and biting it in several places. Couldn’t be happier with this product.

I LOVE this huge container, I can get so many large patio things stashed in there for winter. I was calling to get a new hinge and shock for one side. Altho I didn't have my receipt and purchase date anymore, the customer service gentleman is sending me the parts free of charge!! yaaay! Thank you so much!! I am a customer forever!

First box arrived but plastic pieces were very warped and would not fit together no matter what we did. My husbands a contractor but this thing frustrated the heck out of him! Second box arrived and plastic pieces fit together. We were pretty happy BUT this was tedious and very time consuming to put together. We would NOT recommend this to anyone. You will need lots of tools to put this thing together such as a mallet, screw driver, open end wrenches, and can’t recall any more at this time. Then there is a book on hoe to put this monster together. Finally, the manufacturers knew what they were doing when they decided to sell products like this unassembled...it’s honestly a pain to put this together and I would never buy anything like this again!!!!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great for keeping your stuff clean and dry! I bought three of them, I store bulk bags of wood pellets for my pellet bar-b-que in one, firewood in another and patio furniture seat pads and covers in the third one. They are well made, heavy duty and go together easily. The hydraulic lid strut is a great touch and keeps the lid open even in a strong wind. I highly recommend these deck boxes for anyone looking for extra outside storage.

Our storage box arrived today via FedEx. After taking it from the box, it was completely assembled and in use within 1 hour. Directions were detailed and easy to follow. Box is extremely sturdy and the support air closures prevent the lid from closing accidentally. I am glad we purchased this and I would definitely order again.

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!!

I bought this storage bin to hold all our outdoor toys. Balls, inflatable pools, Tonka trucks, camping chairs, sand toys, rakes...all these things have been well protected over 3 years in our yard. My kids climb on it and in it, and it is holding strong.

Took me just over 25 minutes to assemble at a relaxed rate, there are other languages in the manual, but that's an easy fix since I can't read chinese, don't know why that is such an obstacle for some ppl. Manual was straight forward, took me longer to find my tools than anything else. Will replace my poor quality Keter deck box.
