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
I needed extra room as my lawnmower took up valuable space, this storage box fitted the bill, very sturdy but fitting instructions were vague, recommend fitting the doors before you lock the sides and rear portion.
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.

We bought this for some extra garden storage and it is just what we are looking for.
Originally we received two left hinges and not a right hinge. Instead of sending it back to amazon I sent an email to Duramax directly. After a couple of questions they sent out the replacement part and we received it through the post around 24 hours later.
Easy to put together.We followed another reviewers advice and drilled a few holes in the channel at the back to let any water out.Looks nice when assembled and holds a fair amount of garden equipme
OK, it is just that, it is not that sturdy but it does its job as long as you treat it gently. I do not mean that it is falling apart easily, maybe I should have thought about spending a little bit more money to get something a bit more sturdy.
Very pleased with what I’ve purchased just what I want to thank you very much

Not very easy to put together, but got there in the end. Good capacity, have stored my lawn mower. Need to check if its waterproof enough. Will update on this.
A bit of a struggle to finish off assembly. Definitely need a drill for final assembly instructions. But it makes a good store for a rollator. Just fits by storing sideways. Has let in a little water on stormy night. Pleased with appearances and finished sturdiness.

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.
The instructions are misleading. Also, the base is not meant to take weight. The ad. showed compost bags stacked beside each other but that makes the base dip in the middle. I stood this on level crazy paving/bricks. Looks good, not sure about the weatherproof bit. Useful for garden tools and small bags of anything, also hanging baskets not in use. Tools have to be stored horizontally. The cats find it a wonderful place to sunbathe! Good size, good colour.
A battery drill is essential for ease of construction as there are blind holes and without the right tools I think it would be hard work. Half hour all was done. Checked for water today and was all good. Another one is on order.
Good for storing prams, gargen chairs kids bikes I recommend when putting the back plate in place silicone all the way around the joint where you slide the plate in to . I just got a little bit of water coming in but nothing what would effect the things I mentioned as it just leaks on to the floor a bi
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.

We bought this as a type of kennel for our very large Belgian shepherd as the others did not seem large enough. I suppose if you build things regularly it would not cause too much of a problem but my husband struggled a little with it. It is sturdy and would do the job for its purpose. Our next door neighbour has offered to buy it from us as our reason for buying has not worked out.
Very easy to assemble, but yes you need a power drill to make life easy and the parts you need to drill have pilots but otherwise you need to bite through two bits of plastic.
There are some gaps notably from the top lid to the sides but nothing significant (design flaw here as an inch more material on the top cap would have weatherproofed the top at least)
Base sits significantly off the ground to cause no issues but the bottom of the doors will I am certain let water in (nothing that can’t be fixed with drainage holes, but time will tell)
It’s a fair size, and for the price and ease of assembly as well as the thickness of material I don’t think anyone can complain. Photo above (with added spaniel for scale) shows how it fits my garden set up, and I’m pretty sure this would take two standard bins but snuggly
Hope this helps someone

Great large outside storage box. Looks nice, completely weatherproof. Did arrive slightly damaged but excellent partial refund or replacement offered. Would recommend seller and product.
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
Easy to build, sturdy and spacious. Exactly what I needed for part, golf clubs and gardens bits and bobs. Great price too.
Lovely box – not secure enough for any tools, feels quite flimsy. Use for all the garden bits it’s hard to find a home for but don’t want to put in the new shed
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.
Purchased this for My Mom as her wheelie bins kept being filled with Neighbours rubbish. I even caught a local Indian take-away putting their rubbish in them This storage box is great it’s lockable and will keep out the local fly tippers It’s large and easy to access the wheelie bins I can see that it would be great in a garden for tools bikes lawnmower etc Brilliant bit of kit 5 star.
A bit flimsy.
Easy to assemble.
Top lid misshapen
Time will tell.

Very good quality and design

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

Installation with a screwdriver manually and a hole piercing tool. Make extra holes at the bottom to drain any water that might or might not seep in.
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
Easy to assemble although some of the instructions were slightly vague.Sturdy and weatherproof.
Assembly was straight forward; the biggest problem was, as others have said, all the screws and fully tightening them. Even with a power driver, this was quite difficult. The doors, however, were easy to fit after the sides were in place as the top hinge moulding could be attached to the door and then clicked into place. Altogether, it took me about two hours to complete on my own, but I am in my eighties! My neighbours, and even the postman, have commented how good it looks. So far no water has entered despite two recemt thunderstorms. Very satisfied.
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.
A faulty piston assembly was originally supplied. Duramax Customer Service – particularly Michalis Tapakoudes – arranged for replacement parts to be sent at no cost.
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.
It fitted a place I needed but I thought it was a little overpriced
Takes two to put together. Pretty straight forward although some screw holes not made. Looks good! A little flimsier than expected.
Good design, easy to assemble.
Ground needs to level, otherwise the doors settle skew, but tolerance adequate for fit.
Cut and fitted a shelf, used for garden seat cushions.
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

Really great product, sturdy and gives protection to outside elements for my lawn mower etc. Highly recommended and a good price.
Absolutely brilliant item. I’m a small framed woman in my mid 60’s and was able to put this together myself. It looks great and stores a great amount of stuff. Definitely recommend.

Exactly what we needed to keep garden tools in.
Was fine until this weekend we notice lid is beginning to warp. Also the storage unit is not waterproof. Now feeling disappointed
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.
This is my second order of this shed. It’s a neat way of storing garden items. When it comes to assembling, I had learnt a lot from my first order. First, there’s a channel on the base that the back panel slots into. Rain water sits in the channel and has nowhere to go but inside the shed. Not a massive amount, but enough to form a puddle. If you drill small holes in the base channel before assembly you will eradicate this problem. Second, the doors are quite difficult to fit once the sides are on. I put the door and the side panel on at the same time, which made things a lot easier. You could do with two people to do this, but as I assembled mine entirely alone it is manageable. The whole assembly took about half an hour and I’m no DIY expert. Lightweight and easy to move if you need to, this is a great little shed. However, wheelie bins and adult bicycles do not fit in it.
Awkward to assemble but strong when finished.
Ideal for storing kids bikes and scooters.

Used to store our loungers and very easy to assemble. Not the sturdiest of units but works for me as it’s waterproof and so keeps the furniture dry. There is still room for more to be added which should help weigh it down a bit as the high winds recently pushed it forward but no damage done. Good value for money
I used my product for storage in the garden it now stores bags of compost bark sand and all that stuff that gets wet when left out . It is very sturdy and was a bit tricky to build but I love it now it’s finished.

A sturdy items. But the instructions arnt clear in parts. I had to drill some holes for the screws to go in fully.
Recommend it’s a 2 person job. And you Need a drill, power Screwdriver.

Appauling instructions, two attempts to build this, please sort out your instuctions, especially ensure that the doors are fitted to the side panels BEFORE slotting the panels into the base.
Really thinking about buying another. Definitely value for money in my book.
This is a great storeAway…solid…Easy to put together ideal size…has plenty of room for my need.
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.
Very pleased with the quality and look of the product . Doors a little tricky to fit but the rest of the assembly was fairly easy. Good value storage uni
