Not entirely the easiest to put together single handedly but it looks good and once constructed it seems robust.
Arrived quickly, easy enough to put together alone and fairly quick. Pretty pleased with this!
I ordered this box to store all my garden furniture cushions – which released extra space in my summer house. It was a doddle to construct with all pieces easily identified and the instructions very clear. Once constructed I stored the cushions and locked the box. I have been and checked a few times after heavy rainfall and all appears fine. However, ensure that you follow their advice and wipe of excess rainwater prior to opening. My only gripe was that I had to take out Prime membership to purchase this product.
Its really sturdy and well made was just a tad complicated to assemble but luckily hubby is a joine
Easy to put together.
Strong enough for children to sit on.
Good capacity for our requirements.
No ingress of wate
This box is a piece of work. Compared to the one I have had for years, it is excellent. Has a part metal frame amp an excellent lid lift mechanism. The instructions LOOK complicated when you first see them but all the pieces are clearly marked with the codes they use in the instructions and if you do exactly what they say, it’s a doddle really. Looks great too. Spend the extra and get this one rather than the cheaper versions.
Arrived today, and I had it together in under 30 minutes. I know many who have reviewed the product have found it difficult or fiddly (and the bits that click together need a little gentle persuasion), but maybe it was my lucky day. Either way, it was smooth sailing and seems sturdy and robust while being remarkably lightweight.
I spoke with Keter today, however, regarding the product description on Amazon: see that picture above about the Piston Assist lid that says ‘Integrated Handle and Wheels’ (or words to that effect) underneath? This model doesn’t, and was never made to have, wheels. Smaller models do, but not this fella. Looks like Amazon just copied the template from other advertised models and didn’t change something. The nice lady at Keter said she’s going to look into it and correct it, so it may not be there when you look.
Now I’m not too upset, because I wanted the larger size regardless, but I’m going to fit wheels to one end because I want it to roll out from under my decking when needed – but that’s purely aftermarket engineering. If you’re up for that, great, knock yourself out. Otherwise, if integral wheels are important to you, look into the next size down.
The package arrived on time, (by a driver who couldn’t read) When I unpacked and checked all was OK.
It took a while to build but the instructions were good and easy to follow. All the parts were there and it fitted together well. Very pleased with the purchase.
Terrible to assemble but good when completed. Took all day
You can’t buy better storage than Keter bought 4, no problems after 4yrs with first purchase kept outdoors through winter. Easy to assemble.
Well made quite light for it’s size. Well played out instructions. Water proof so fa
Very pleased with these (we ordered 2) They accomodated all our camping equipment in one and other odds and ends in the other. Hopefully they are vermin proof!
Easy assembly and delivered on time. Very pleased.
This is brilliant – changed our summer! We keep outside cushions in it and sit out much more now that these are so easily available
This product is a good size and very useful. However it apparently went to a different depot by mistake first. When it arrived it looked like it had been opened and/or returned. The instructions were missing and we had to download and print out to be able to put it togethe
Solid durable product. You can sit on it and easy to assemble.
Quite difficult to put together. My son and I struggled and it took a while. But once up it serves it’s purpose and keeps my cushions dry.
Just what I needed in the garden, to put the black rubbish sacks in to stop the foxes getting at them.
good size storage box can fit lawn mower and garden tools in it just what I was looking fo
good quite strong box. We use it for storing horse rugs and other items. Best for leaving in one place once full as not easy or that strong to move around
Using this for storage of outside furniture cushions and the like. Used Ketter products in the past and are reliable and rain proof.
This is my third! So versatile and hardwearing. Blends into any setting. They were missing a trick when they used to advertise them as pool boxes but how many of us in UK have pools! I stores horse rugs and can sit on them to sort – great!
Ordered this box for the size as we have a nine seater rattan set and all of the cushions fit in it nicely. Easy to put together and very solid when assembled.very pleased with purchase and price.
We’ve used ours for storing the patio furniture cushions over winter. It’s a rattan corner sofa with 6 thick base cushions and 5 thick back cushions; they fit in rather snugly! Only a little bit of moisture at the bottom when we unpacked them this year.
An excellent product which was reasonably priced. Easy assembly and product was as described by seller. We would certainlyly buy Keter products again.
Great product an very useful. It’s at the front, I keep my motorcycle cover in it (and some cardboard until recycle-day). Plus, the postman use it to leave the parcel in it.
Very well made and good quality of plastic. The 4 stars rating is because it could have better finished edges..
The box came with clear instructions of assembling and took me about 15 min to pu all together.
I’m pleased with my purchase..
Good value at price paid and relatively easy to put together. It’s mainly plastic so nothing quite lines up. Eg slight gap under lid on one of two I bought. Therefore may not risk things like storing cushions
Check measurements as quite small
A very good box, sturdy and reasonably easy to assemble. Just make sure you stand it on an even surface when assembled. Would def. Recommend.
It looked good but i sent it back because I didn’t want it … So a 5 star for what I thought of its potential.
Sorry it’s not an in depth review but it’s not negative.
I bought the Keter Glenwood plastic storage box more than 2 years ago. The quality is very good. It has already braved 2 Scottish winters and is still in the original condition. Used to store garden cushions and the box is completely waterproof. Highly recommended
Love this, looks great in the garden & fits the stuff I needed to put into it, however I’m no supermodel & I wouldn’t want to put too much weight on it to sit down, I have perched on the edge but feel it may break if I sit on it with my full weight, easy to put together, took myself & hubby about 15 mins I think it was.
Good capacity, good quality and fits in well in the garden surroundings. Great for the kids to sit on and jump off etc – but not quite up to the job of doubling as a seat for the larger adult, as you can feel the top of the box start to buckle under your weight after a while
Brilliant piece of storage! Holds all my garden cushions, looks good in the garden and Mr. D assured me it was easy to assemble!!! What is not to love? Or yes it was an amazing price — looked at others in the major DIY chains are they cost at least 50% more.
Very pleased easy to fit together and a good size
very good buy. Bought this for my six garden chairs and two sun loungers. This one is bigger than the usual ones that amazon sells. Went together no problem, 15 minutes to build, and is completely waterproof. Would definitely recommend it.
Good size box perfect for cushions bottom part not very strong so don’t think it could take heavy garden stuff.
Canny cushion storage or small outdoor items
Easy put together
Sturdy
Natural wood colour blends into the garden well
Can be used as seating too
Great for smaller gardens
Not the prettiest box ever created but it’s very solid and capacious.
Instructions are clear. It took about 20 mins to construct (I recommend an electric screwdriver).
Easy to put together, did most of it on my own with just a little help to attach the lid. Instruction were pretty good for graphical instruction and easy to follow. Went together easily and is a good fit, looks to be weathertight from the few rainstorms it has survived so far. Roomy and plenty of space for cushions etc. Bought as a deal so great value.
eceived this morning . put it together in about half an hour , seems very strong , have filled it with gardening stuff, plenty of room in there, very happy . just make sure you follow instructions , then you should have no problems with it.
Nowthe o,our is fading on the lid of the box
Arrived today. My husband who is not a DIY expert, put it together in about twenty minutes or so. It seems fine for our purpose of storing rather large cushions and hopefully will be waterproof. Looks very attractive on our patio.
Good an solid.The mechanism of one of them though doesn’t hold the lid when we open it.That takes one star off.
It was 20minutes to snap and screw it together and is pretty solid. You can indeed sit on it if you are so inclined.
It holds around 15bags of 25cm logs so circa 100kg of logs I guess.
I guess I’ll need to see if it does indeed keep the wood dry but no reason to suspect it won’t.
Just right size and quality I required ,would recommend to any one
Arrived in good shape, I managed to put it together quite quickly with a little help. It is strong enough for a man to sit on. It should last for years. No water gets into it either.
Easy to assemble, reasonably robust, though floor would not take heavy weights and I put some thin stone paving slabs under it to prevent any sagging. Looks good against our black fence. Capacity is excellent.
easy ish to put together all my patio cushions for nicely ..it does however lift at one corner ..but in general a good produc
Definatly needed this larger size box , perfect for the cushions from our 2 seater settee with 2 armchairs , fits neatly , was easy to put together , although took some time , and it looks good
I purchased two of these storage boxes and I can`t complain.
They came flat packed but the assembly instructions were clear and easy to follow.
Once complete I was surprised at how much I can store in each box.
I can place all covers and cushions for our garden furniture away in one box while the just holds basic gardening equipment.
Well worth the Money
Great storage box, very good quality love the hydraulic lift, one bit of advise is make sure all panels are together properly, especially the floor part, and you won’t have any problems of the door not closing, overall great product and easy to put together.
Solid bit of kit. Not a drop of water inside, even after a very heavy downpour.
We brought this to replace an earlier one that had weak hinges which got broken with a severe gist of wind. This one is so much sturdier and slightly bigger to which is an advantage. We use it for recycling Paper, Cardboard and bottles.
This arrived well packaged. It was fairly easy to assemble and instructions were clear. It is a large box, and compaired to some others, quite sturdy. The weakest part being the base panel, which is made of fluted plastic, but only if heavy objects are placed inside. For a self assembly garden box it is a very good product and worth the money.
This is a great storage box and very easy to put together. I left it a few days in very heavy rain to make sure there were no leaks and it was fine.
looks far nicer than expected. small crack in lid which was twisted, one lug for the hinge broken off on unpacking. Luckily have a man who knows and was able to re-fuse with a lighter the lug into place. He was able to knock top back gently and close crack. He is very good at more than DIY, and it took him an hour to build. Because of his ability, it looks smart and neat. little bits of plastic left round screw areas meant care needed to put screws in place and get it looking square and solid. Would not trust sitting on it. Does job of holding garden seat cushions which is what I bought it for. Remains to be seen if watertight, but looks promising! As a lay person, doubt if I could have assembled it myself easily though instructions clear. Finished result looks good.
Bought this for the garden for storing pots and bits and pieces like that. I use it all the time and it is robust, waterproof, easy to lift up the lid and so on. It also looks quite elegant compared to some other boxes. Certainly doesn’t stand out in the garden. I would recommend this.
Very spacious & waterproof. Advertised as a seat but think you need to be very light to sit on it without worrying about buckling the lid!
I’m happy with it good quality big enough for a a lawn mower with the handle folded down and plenty of space for over things I would recommend it But it is over priced.
Love this box really easy to put together and looks brilliant,holds plenty all my garden furniture cushions and more are now packed neatly away and will not get damp and musty, would definitely recommend this produc
Good quality making it great value, easily assembled, good size & most important watertight from the weather elements. I want another now but the price has gone up and i’m reluctant to pay more so i’m watching and waiting.
Arrived quickly, was relatively easy to build. I was pleastanly surprised as how robust it feels and the quality of it. It looks better than I had thought and so far has remained water proof.
A servicable storage box. I think that the hinge stile is a little flimsy so may not last as long as I had hoped.
We know that we live in a flatpack world. I had a hope that the assembly Instuctions for something from Israel would be a bit clearer. But no, totally in the Chinese/IKEA mould.
A good point is that the part numbers are included in the part mouldings.
A reasonable buy.
Arrived on time. Its now screwed to wall with a padlock in use in the front garden. So handy to wash the car on the drive and not having to go through the house for the hose, pressure washer and hoover. Made life a lot easie
Amazon stepped in as my first order Yodel failed to deliver. Amazon customer service was great and after re-ordering my item I received it the next day. Box does what it says and went together fairly well and I am happy with my purchase.
Storage box is very satisfactory for its purpose and looks good also. Only 4 stars as some of the predrilled holes were missed on manufacture, making assembly more difficult as I am not able to use a drill.
Fairly simple, instruction wise, to assemble, but some of the holes don’t quite line up and quite difficult to reach. I struggled to get the lid absolutely square on due to the slight mis-alignment of two of the holes. Thus the four stars. However, I did do it on my own and would really recommend two people as you need three hands! But it works and the lid does close fast. We’ve had torrential rain over the past two months and my garden furniture cushions have stayed bone dry, which was my main concern. Obviously still have the winter to go through yet, but for the price, I am so far very pleased. Also the unit looks good.
So far, so good.It does seem waterproof, but the lid does tend to lift slightly. Will see after winter. Goes together easily enough, although the lid keeper took a bit of persuasion to extend at first. Like it very much.
To counter some of the negative reviews. This arrived well packaged and was easy to assemble. Right up until i got to the point of fitting the gas hinge thing. As I removed it from the package it disintegrated which in itself was disappointing. However a quick email to Keter customer services and within a week, a superior design of spare part arrived. The whole thing is now sitting pretty in the garden and doing the job it’s meant to. Good stuff.
No instructions on how to build, but after laying everything out it didn’t take too long.
Good size holds all the garden cushions which are kept dry in all this lovely weather.
Apparently, according to the other reviews, the base is a bit weak, but I have in mine a small lawn mower, a seed sprayer, a shovel, a spade, a fork, a grass edger, a brush, a basket with eight garden hand tools, four cement laying hand tools, a long spirit level, a pair of shears, a branch lopper, a 5ltr bottle of fertiliser, various large packets of Feed & Weed type stuff, a thickly padded garden chair cushion and two bench cushions, yet there doesn’t seem to be any problems with the base falling out; I did attach the base with the screws that came supplied, maybe other people didn’t bother doing this.
It has a hydraulic thing at the back for holding the top up when you open it and the thing the padlock goes through seems quite secure. I use an Abus Marine Grade padlock as this is very waterproof and should last for years. The lid is slightly warped though, so it closes completely on one side and has a slight half inch gap on the other (may be due to the heat of the sun). I usually leave a bag of compost on top to make it shut completely.
I am very happy with this storage box, especially as it looks a bit like wood and fits very nicely in the corner of the patio. It was very easy to build, took me about 15 minutes and seems so far to be completely weatherproof.
Update: August 2015 – If you are as heavy as me, don’t stand on the lid. I was doing some strimming of a hedge, stood on the middle of the lid and heard a loud crack. Opened it up and found one of the vertical supports in the lid had split, though the outside of the lid still seems undamaged and it is still waterproof. Still okay to sit on though.
Very good product. My wife who’s never into DIY put it together on her own in about an hour by following the very clear instructions. She used a hammer to gently knock some of the panels into place when they didn’t ‘click’ as the instructions suggested. The firm tightening required with a screwdriver left a small blister on her hand but other than that she was mighty pleased with herself!
Relatively easy to put together, great sized storage and so far has kept everything bone dry (we’ve had it for about four months). Also looks quite stylish. The only thing missing is a latch to close it. There is space for a padlock, however I’ve just used some garden wire – it doesn’t open up on its own but I’ve put the wire on just in case we get any gale force winds.
A good sized storage box for the garden, sufficient for small tools and bits and pieces. Wood effect looks much better than the plainer versions and the domed top helps with the issue of water getting in when you open the top. Takes a bit of time to assemble, but not too difficul
Took an hour to put together as it wasn’t easy to manipulate some of the pieces to fit into position. Overall though I’m pleased with the product: it’s relatively sturdy and has plenty of room for all my garden bits and pieces.
So far so good, lead stays open – v handy; looks great and holds all garden cushions for 8 seater set, Would recommend
Great box, wish I had gone with the bigger one! When it arrived did not think it would turn out as sturdy as it did, it is great for putting all the bits and pieces in – including the recycling! Good value. Love the support for the lid. Easy to assemble.
Very useful item for the garden. Ideal for storing patio chair cushions and other garden items. Keeps them dry and safe. Padlock can be fitted.
Now it’s assembled and painted, I like it. But you can’t assemble it on your own, you need a friend, a mallet and a rachet screw driver. In it’s original state it looks like a coffin so I have painted it green with white stripes and it looks gr8 and is very useful.
As stated good buy thanks good to put together
better than most self build I am 80 Had no problem
Great storage box for outdoor use – keeps our cushions dry all through winter. It was a bit difficult to put together though!
Arrived in good time and as specified, I knew the quality would be good as I have other Keter products, and very easy to construct. Box come with full instructions and easy to follow diagrams, it provides enough storage for my needs and fits nicely against one of the conservatory walls.
Easy to put together, good size. Reasonably water tight and option of security through lockable lid. Not sure I would leave anything ruin able in there in the winter months tho ( like cushions etc)
