Nothing to be negative about,the hydrolic pistons were faulty but thanks to Michalis in customer service this was resolved and now it is perfect.
I would say do not use electric drill. It may be more time consuming but an old fashioned screw driver is better.
Looks good.
Arrived in a timely manner and were easily erected by one person in about thirty minutes a piece.
The instructions, whilst minimal, are easy enough to follow and, unlike previously constructed Keter products, all the holes were where they should be and there was no warping that required a wee bit of “shoogling” to sort out.
An electric screwdriver would be of great use to you during construction as there are quite a few self tapping screws that need firmly screwed through plastic and even though they are easy enough to construct a second pair of hands would not go amiss, especially when you are attaching the lid hinges to the main body.
My only real issue is that the plastic “locking mechanism” supplied does not actually securely clip the lid down unless you use a padlock (unlike the similar Keter product). It will be fine enough during good weather but come a high wind I wouldn`t like the lid to be blown open, exposing the contents to the elements and possibly snapping off the lid and hinges. So padlocks it is – even though I do not require them and not really worth the issue as you could break into these and any other similar product using just harsh language.
Bought for the purpose of keeping plant pots and other growing equipment within and they will easily serve this purpose.
The person I bought it for is over the moon with it job done
A pleasant shopping trip. Changed the color, looks good, worth buying.
This storage container is just what we were after for putting the kids bikes & scooters in. The grey blends in with the grey fence and you don’t really notice it. We thought it was a good price & my husband put it together in about an hour. We haven’t had it long but no water has leaked in. So glad we bought it.
Easy to assemble nice big size holds a good amount . Doors not the sturdiness but good value for the money looks good too .
Would recommend
A good size for storage easy to put together and weatherproof no leaks inside good value item I purchased
Weather proof – I suppose. Waterproof – definitely not. It’s ok-ish.
When closed it is sturdy enough but open it is a bit flimsy. The top hinge on one door came lose and allowed the door to fall, snapping the bottom hinge in the process.
Also allowed wasps to enter and make a nest.
Excellent bit of kit just moved house but no where to put a dryer . So came up with the idea of putting my dryer in the bunker close a window it works perfect with extension lead through the window.
SUPERB
Very easy to assemble. It appears a bit flimsy with the top up and the doors open as there is no cross member to hold it all together. Having said that when the doors are closed and the lid is down it becomes robust.
I am very pleased with it. It will store all 6 garden chairs and a few other bits and bobs. Thoroughly recommend.
Found it very easy to assemble on my own (56yr old woman) using just a hand screwdriver. I also put some drainage holes into the rear channel on the base which the back panel sits in as, having read previous reviews, rain can occasionally ingress there so just added drainage as a precaution.
Took less than one hour to do from start to finish and am very pleased with the sturdy ness and look of the storage.
This shed was very easy to assemble and looks great at the front of my property. However, the doors of the shed are flimsy and last week, when the dustbin men were emptying the bins, one of the locks fell off and has subsequently disappeared which is frustrating, especially when the shed is so new!
I’ve had this outdoor box for nearly a year and overall it’s a good box. We got the 850 size and it holds a good amount of garden stuff if you pack it in well. One thing I would note though is if you don’t have the box on concrete or something perfectly flat the doors won’t all lock in place easily, as the whole of the plastic frame flexes.
It’s kept the water out well, and being plastic it’ll last foreve
Overall we are happy with these. Very easy to assemble. The doors on ours are a little wayward because of the weight we put on it. They distort a little according to where the weight is placed. Not too bad. I have braced across the inside with a fitted wooden shelf. This has made them much sturdier.
It’s a bit of a pain to put together. There are instructions but the pictures are too small to be much help. The back panel is in two pieces and the instructions are really too small. Myself and my wife managed to assemble it in about an hour. I am 74 and blind in one eye and my wife is in a wheel chair so we didn’t do too bad. Once assembled it feels sturdy enough. Won’t know about waterproof until it rains. Delivery was very good it’s very heavy though so you definitely need two people.
I love the fact that it is so spacious, I bought it only 108, but sad to see that the price has gone up. It is worth buying for protecting your lovely cushions on the patio
Parts are missing .HANDLE ,Hinge and hinge bracket ,top cover lock ,Metal rod cant find who to contact .If anyone can help please
We have found the parts that were missing. Panic over.
We are pleased with our with it just what we needed to store the lawnmower in.
Very happy with my purchase. Good value for money and just as described.
Great value and quality item. Amazon mucked up the ordering and took a month to arrive.
It’s waterproof and it took minutes to assemble sits pretty well. Had some strong winds on the coast but was solid
Easy assembly no fuss 15mins to complete and very sturdy
good size,nice color,material looks also good i only worry about doors how long will they work
Nice looking, sturdy (as plastic can be) storage unit. Fairly easy to assemble but note that if you can’t find the ‘metal bars it could be part assembled to the lid already. Make sure you place it on level ground so doors open and close OK. A little pricey for what it is, in my opinion, but nevertheless, competitive.
It is easy to assemble and has good storage space but it is a little flimsier than we thought it would be.
This storage box was very easy to assemble and definitely suits our purpose for story our children’s bikes and scooters.
It does feel a bit flimsy particularly the doors, so I have decided against fitting shelves which was my original plan.
That said it does what we need to it do and provides outside storage for items we don’t have space for inside and it’s easy for the kids to use.
We wanted storage for our garden cushions but it had to fit a certain space which also meant it would be in view so had to look good as well. This fitted both requirements and was very easy to assemble but is very study so very happy
Fitted perfectly in the space I had. I use it to store our cushions in the winter months. Very pleased with it.
Easy assemble
Waterproof
Description is as it states
Great purchase
Written instructions would have been helpful and speeded up assembly Package was not too big on arrival and when assembled looked sturdy
The latches to close the doors missing, as the doors keep opening would it be possible to send some to me not sturdy without latches.
after waiting 3 months for delivery I thought good its here. Box does not hold wheelie bins also it is leaking nor impressed.
Assembly instructions could be clearer and a bit more stability on the doors would enhance this product, but after a couple of weeks I am very happy with the product so far.
I bought on sale. Only use it for recycling so does what I need it for It’s a little flimsy could do with a kick down lock for doors make it more sturdy
I think I might be getting issues because the ground is on a bit of a slant. The doors line up but the bolt mechanism is a little flimsy and also the foot locking bar is a little flimsy. The hinge on one side doesn’t quite engage properly so I have to move the lid to one side when I push it down then it works. Also I find that the hook that connects to the bin lid falls off so it is a matter of lifting the lid slowly otherwise chain will twist and the hook will fall off. It is absolutely fine if the bins are for yourself because it only takes a bit of effort to adapt but I think a sturdier solution is needed if the bins are communal. Otherwise it is an attractive solution, it serves its purpose and it is probably better than I describe.
Doors were a little flimsy other than that it was fit for the purpose it was bought for which was to store garden items like mower etc
Doors were a little flimsy other than that it was fit for the purpose it was bought for which was to store garden items like mower etc
Does what it should although I have found in the last few days that there has been some wanted in the bottom. It is a little flimsy and the locking system could be better – does it’s job though
It looks good but the instructions are absolutely terrible plus they can’t get to shut the lid properly but they are still trying, it needs to be straight forward with the instructions
Easy to assemble if you follow the instructions, good robust materials, did have a slight hiccup with a missing part but couple of emails sorted that out very quickly.
Easy to assemble looks good in the garden sturdy and secure.
It fitted a place I needed but I thought it was a little overpriced
Generally pleased with the purchase as it does exactly what it was bought for – to hide our 2 wheelie bins. I’m not particularly good at DIY and there were some assembly challenges but I got there in the end. No leaks as reported in some reviews, but it wasn’t as sturdy as I’d envisaged but it does the job and actually looks quite good. A wooden bin store would probably have been better, but these are considerably more expensive and so far I’ve no regrets.
Great product at great price!!! Delivery was quick (but second person was needed). Had a small issue with the hinges but the company were very, very swift in resolving! Perfect!
Great size box for storing garden tools etc. Hoods a lot of stuff. Defo a 2-peraon assembly job.
It is just what I wanted to store cushions i

I found this product to be very useful. Quality is excellent and the space inside exactly what I need. Price is very good too.
The delivery was sooner than stated which was excellent. I prefer images for instructions rather than words so that was good. Easy to assemble once organised. Very pleased with my purchase.
Not easy for aged person to erect, needs an able bodied man or me
When I was assembling the shed I noticed that I had two back pieces the same so I could not assemble the rear tried to just return the back pieces only to find out that it have to return the whole shed after I had assembled i
Requires two persons to assemble. Approx 2 hours to erect. Instructions mainly pictures, very little narrative. Over 40 screws to fix and some click assembly.
Not sure if this is a design fault: back panel fixed by a number of screws but no holes on the post of the side panels, therefore screws forced through the plastic. Once this has been achieved, sturdy enough. Fully lockable with two padlocks (not supplied) for extra security.
Overall, better than I at first thought; looks great and a reasonable price.
Easy to assemble, strong and spacious for our needs, there is some flex in the side panels.
Well designed drainage system on lid BUT another rainwater related issue needs to be addressed, namely the channel holding base of rear panel that fills with rainwater and seeps through the join onto base of unit, thus ruining our patio chair cushions.
Drilling five drainage holes in the base of the channel has rectified the problem – this should be done at manufacture stage.
Excellent outside storage,easy assembly with 2 people. Very good price & it looks good.
like that its a cheaper alternative to wood and that it gives the space i need for my allotment tools. was easy to build until the last part – you need to screw in a lot of screws to fix the back panel to the sides – however there are no pre drilled holes which made it difficult for me, even my partner struggled – also it didnt line up as it should which made it even harder. the shed is very light so in exposed places (like my allotment) i have had to put a concrete slab inside and on the lid to keep it weighted down. one other design fault – the loops for a padlock dont stay clicked in place which is frustrating at times. on the whole though i am happy with it and what i need it for.
If you want a waterproof box from the off then this isn’t for you. It says weatherproof yet the rain managed to find its way in through the back of the bottom of the box via the groove the back slots into.
My husband had to take it apart, and simply drilled holes along said groove to allow the water to drain away. 2 days later and 2 days of rain and the box is dry.
Shouldn’t need to do this and it’s no doubt voided the warranty but I’d say we’ve improved the design.
Other than the above issue, the box looks nice and easily stores all of our outdoor furniture cushions (we have bagged them up just in case) are stored securely and tidily in one place.
Excellent product, used it to put the patio furniture cushions in from a corner suite and egg chair with space left over. Kept them all dry even after the horrid storms we’ve had recently. We’ll worth the money and good looking.
Excellent purchase- only downside is closure doesnt close very well- keeps coming open so you will need a padlock to hold it closed
Simple to put together big enough for all our recycling
This storage box is a perfect shape to hold folded up garden sun beds, and recliner chairs.
It is relatively easy to construct (just follow instructions) and feels robust. Waterproof in the recent wind and rain we had. Inside can be modified with shelving if required but I found it best to drill some small holes at the edges (inside, not through the outer shell) which allows me to stretch elastic bungees hooked across and hold the chairs in place. The floor section is a little more flimsy than ideal, so I used a soft floor tile insert at less than a fiver to create a solid none slip base. The lid could be a little more robust, but no sign of any bending or warping so far. Front doors open wide for easy access and can be locked (needs a padlock)
Overall one of the best storage boxes I have in my garden Looks good and very useful.
Excellent storage. Large but NOT large enough for wheelie bins, maybe if you have smaller ones but just not high enough. Easy enough and quick to assemble. Seems fairly weather proof and sturdy.
Good quality. Instructions not as clear as they could be.
Easy to assemble but slightly damaged on outside.
The box itself was sturdy and completely waterproof
Nice size storage box very pleased easy to assemble didn’t take me long i would recommend very fast delivery thanks
Great size and sturdy shed but the lock catch keeps popping out when the door is opened or closed.
Looks good but with no pre drilled holes I found a few of them very hard to get the screws in.
Very easy to assemble. Instructions not very clear but really only 5 parts to it. Looks tidy and sturdy when built water tigh
Product is good for the fact it is plastic it is as sturdy as it can be. Storage is in the back garden bonus is as it’s plastic it won’t get damaged by the weather. Looks good and has.a contemporary look to it.
Nice looking- Not bad for the price easy to build
Excellent product easy to setup does the job stored all my items for my lazy spa
