Keter storage

After all the horrible reviews we still decided to buy 2 of these Keter Hudson deck bench/box. It was very easy to follow the instructions in the box which was mostly pictures or diagrams. One of the benches had a small piece chipped out in the back of one of the rear legs. Not very noticeable. They look very nice on our dock with a little table in between. Very nice looking & comfortable. Happy with our purchase.

One piece was broken

I purchased this 2 weeks ago and since then we have had one heavy rain event. Imagine our surprise when we opened the "storage" bench and found about 3 inches of water inside. We had temporarily placed our radio we use when in the yard and forgot about it. Needless to say it is ruined. Otherwise, the bench is sturdy and looks very nice in our yard.

1) Needs a lot of time to fix it. 2) This product is made up of very cheap quality plastic 3) Not at all safe from rain water from storage point of view. All my lawn fertilizers and week control bags worth of $150 got wasted. This is not a recommended product if you want to use it as water proof outdoor storage. Highly dissatisfied with the product.

This bench...I don't know where to begin with this bench. Once I opened it and pieces were already broken off of it, I was a bit weary. Then while building it and realizing that about a third of the instructions are "Click click click" I suspected that I would be right on how bad this bench is. Almost nothing "click click clicked" together correctly, the lock couldn't be put in as it immediately broke off, and I'm pretty sure at one point it had me screwing in screws that literally did NOTHING for the structure, stability...really anything. I'm pretty positive this project took about ten years off of my life. Save yourself time, money, and hassle. Don't buy this.

I own two Keter products. This was the third item I’ve purchased. The previous two were easy to assemble; nevertheless, this purchase was a disappointment. Assembly began smoothly, but I quickly noticed I was missing parts. When I looked closer and cross referenced the manual, I counted 13 missing parts. Some of which should have two identical pieces. If you take that into account, the amount of missing parts is over 20. Disappointing, especially when this was intended as a gift for a family member.

I assembled two of these with my daughters. It took maybe 20 minutes each they appear fairly sturdy. I am concerned about the quality of the hinge. Ultimately, though I took one star off because I would like more storage space in the size maybe by making the bench taller.

Love this bench!! It's beautiful and looks great in person. It's plenty big for two people to sit. I love the curved arm rests. It's really sturdy (which I was kind of surprised by after putting together). The storage area is plenty big for some outdoor stuff, pillows, etc. that I don't want to get hit with weather 24/7. Putting together was quite a chore - some of the plastic was tough to piece together, but all in all, it was so worth it. Just to note - it is more of a gray/brown so would go well with both color schemes!
