Not a bad product, quite sturdy for being made of plastic and all the pieces simply snapping together. DON'T ASSEMBLE IT IF THE PIECES ARE COLD, I shattered two pieces trying after the shipping box was in single digit weather overnight. Let it warm up first!

The bench is easy to assemble, and lid actually
does work well. It is not an item that will last
forever, but it is priced fairly for what it is--a storage
bench.

Not much to say about this storage bench. It looks as good as the pictures show, and assembles in around 5 minutes from about 8 large pieces. No tools required or complicated rubik's cube type antics when putting it together. Strong too - I noted another reviewer listed himself at 190lbs and unsure about sitting on it. I'm a gigantic fella and weigh ~360lbs and have no such worries. As long as you've put it together properly it should take two normal-sized people without problem. Can't go wrong with this one.

I purchased this for my deck. I needed a place to store the seat cushions and bench cushion when not in use. This bench is awesome. It is waterproof and has a good amount of storage space. Easily assembled with out any tools. Great extra seating for outdoor parties.

Assembly is a piece of cake if you read the directions first. It may be toolless if you don't mind banging it together with your bare hands, but I recommend having a rubber mallet around. For the price it should be more substantial; at 190 lbs., I'm not comfortable sitting on it.

I am mostly pleased with the Patio Bench. I found it to be as advertised*. It was well made, easy to assemble (snapped together in about two minutes)and provided excellent storage capability. The seat/cover supported both me and my wife very well. However I would rccommend steering your heavier guests to other seating as the front panel tends to "bow-out" under more weight in the center. I would recommend this product for use on a covered deck/patio.

*Since the product is advertised as a "Patio Bench", I can understand why there was no mention of the fact that the seat/cover will warp if exposed to direct sunlight. It does however, regain it's original shape once out of the Sun's direct rays.

This storage bench is great for storing pool items or anything you keep outside. It was easy to put together and I got it on the Friday sale for $69.99, so the price was awesome! All other benches like this that I researched were over $100.00

For several years, we've had this item as a covered entryway bench in which to store baby strollers, yard stuff, toys, shoes, etc. (and on which to pass a few minutes here and there waiting for the wife to get ready to leave the house). It's been excellent for these stated purposes, especially given its price. However, if it were exposed directly to the elements or rough handling it would probably not last more than a year or two. I don't think that a "patio bench" is a good description because it should only belong on a covered patio or perhaps be sheltered appropriately under an arbor.

This bench looks great on my new patio by the pool! Fits a good amt of pool toys keeping them
out of sight, three young children can fit on bench.(2 adults comfortably) Love the clean lines and dual purpose, so easy to clean also. Color is as pictured on website. Exact match to my suncast hose hideaway.
Never had a problem with Amazon, been ordering with them for many yrs.

The price was right, The bench was larger than I expected which was a nice thing. It went together easily and works great. The company does not list measurements on the Amazon web site and I think they would sell more of them through Amazon if they did.
