I just received my new Suncast Deck Box today. Unlike some other folks, I measured my patio cushions and checked the specs. on the box BEFORE I purchased it. (I'm amazed at how some people can blame the box for being too small when they didn't measure their stuff beforehand? Hmmmm??)

So when I packed the box with my cushions there were no surprises at all...they fit perfectly with room to spare for other items. As well, the size of this deck box fits perfectly on our deck and personally I find the green accents of the box attractive as well.

As others have mentioned, the assembly really couldn't be simplier...a few snaps here and there and bingo...you're in business.

The wheels and handles are great features which make this a very manuverable box. Very easy to position from place to place if need be.

Please note that this box does not lock so don't buy it if you need this feature. The lid is designed with an "inner lip" so you have a second line of defence against wet weather so your contents *should* remain dry. I guess I'll find out soon...(follow-up: Dry as a bone after a few thunderstorms!!)

All in all a very nice purchase and I highly recommend it.

Final word: Please measure your stuff first before purchasing a deck box so as to avoid disappointment.

We bought the Deck Box specifically to use as an outdoor toy box for our children. As such it is everything we wanted. The plastic seems strong enough to last awhile and yet it's light enough to move around. The lid isn't too heavy and won't hurt little fingers too badly if they're caught. Assembly gets highest marks, my 6 year old and I had it done in under 5 minutes. Pieces are clearly marked and it literally snaps together. We're considering another for a separate area of the play yard.

Good product. If you're looking to buy something specifically for chair cushions, take a look at the Suncast DB9000. The interior dimensions of that model are 49.5"H x 23"D x 20"H. You can review Suncasts's entire line at [...]

I am happy with my deck box too. 60 bucks at warehouse club if you have the energy. But, unlike claim here of 5 year limited warranty, the papers enclosed state that box is warranted against defect "through time of purchase." Even if it wasn't out of warranty by the time you got it home, you'd have to pay shipping to and from Suncast (probably 60 bucks too!) to cover them selling you something broken as you bought it. I wrote to them via email to ask for an explanation and they didn't bother to reply. So, if it isn't right, take it back right away. Or, consider Rubbermaid's competing and similar product- they have Much better customer service which will matter if you need it. Nice box-bonehead company.

Getting tired of walking back and forth to the garage for the garden tools you forgot? Or storing bird seed inside where it gets messy? Zoning laws forbid a storage shed (which can be unsightly anyway)? Me, too. Until I found this deckbox (the least expensive I found online, too). Assembly is literally a "snap" without tools. It glides anywhere I want it. It holds more than I thought it would. And even those pesky squirrels and racoons have yet to figure out how to get at the birdseed inside. I look forward to wheeling it to the garage come winter and not having to pack then unpack my garden supplies next year. Go for it - you'll like it.

I researched for a while for which deck box to buy and was NOT disappointed with this one I chose. The larger size was a good choice by me to store all my patio items. The box was VERY easy to assemble and the pieces snapped together very easily, solidly and without any tools! I would definitely buy another Suncast product in the future. No complaints from me! :-)

The subject line sums it up here, meaning this storage box is pretty doggone handy, but I did not realize the wheels are on only one side of the storage box, not both. It makes it easier to drag it around, but it'd be nice if there were wheels on BOTH ends. It couldn't cost them that much more to take that leap in my view. However, I got A LOT of stuff in this bench, managing to clear out my laundry area so I could actually put laundry there, not everything else. Among the items that are now comfortably relegated to this storage bench are a drill, couple of saws, socket wrenches, two small tool boxes and one bigger one, two 20-pound bags of dry dogfood, assorted dog treats, leashes, flea collars and repellants, and three paint recpetacles and inumerable paint rollers, brushes, et cetera. I have room to put more in there if I choose. ... It's held far, far more than I dreamed it would. I am quite satisfied. It really was no-tool assembly, too, which I really didn't expect either. This was a good investment, I think, and it was free shipping. I'd recommend this one. Do note, however, that it doesn't lock, so don't put anything in it of huge value. The only thing that keeps this from being five stars versus four is the fact that there are two wheels for rolling, not four. My back needs four. :)

I have had a Suncast box on my deck for the past two years. It is better than they say it is. New york gets some rough weather in the winter. The box is on the northwest corner of the deck, and all of my pool supplies, chemicals too, were as dry as they were at the end of last season. A LOCK would be nice, but as is , a great bang for the buck.

i don't know about the people who complained, but it seems that they purchased this box for it's price, rather than look at the dimensions to match their seat cushions. they would have been happier buying the right product the first time.

this box is capable of holding all my pool supplies and yard stuff. the only thing i think would make it better was the ability to lock it (just because I keep my pool chemicals in it).

I recently received and put together my new Suncast deck box. I have a new deck and a new lawn in my yard. I can now, finally, organize my yard "stuff" so it's not all over the place. What impressed me the most (aside from the sturdiness of the material the deck box is made of) is that the directions were well written and easy to follow. The deck box is now in my yard (not on the deck though) and it looks great!
