CHRISTOW Waterproof Garden Storage Box With Lockable Lid, Plastic Wood Effect Outdoor Storage Box, Aluminium Hinges, 190L

Very strong box and went together very easily

This Waterproof Garden Storage Box with Lockable Lid has been a useful addition to my garden. The plastic wood effect gives it a stylish look that blends well with my outdoor decor. The aluminium hinges and lockable lid provide added security and durability, making it perfect for storing garden tools, cushions, and other outdoor items.However, the bottom is not as sturdy as I had hoped. It tends to flex a bit under heavy loads, which is something to keep in mind depending on what you plan to store. Despite this minor flaw, the 190L capacity is ample, and it effectively keeps everything dry and protected from the elements.Overall, it’s a great addition to my garden for organizing and protecting my belongings. With a bit more reinforcement at the bottom, it would be perfect.

Wow needed a box with hinged lid that allows the lid to stay open when needed - this suited the job.The bottom is flimsy but we do not plan to move it with the contents in.

I bought this item as a dry place to receive deliveries in our garden when we are out. Having received and built it I have very mixed feelings about it.Firstly the description is misleading, it DOES NOT HAVE aluminium hinges, they are polythene, with a polythene hinge-pin. Only the stays are metal. The hasp is also polythene, so any lock would only ever deter a three year old.The sides are about 1mm thick plastic, and could easily be broken into or simply cut open with a knife or sharp tool.The base is of the same material as the sides, with a single support bar across the centre and is very insubstantial, so could soon break if used for storing metal edged tools.The sides clip together and are butt joined so are not water proof.On the positive side, it is very easy to put together and very roomy. The lid is moulded and therefore quite strong, though obviously not load bearing, so as warned by the manufacturer, it can't be sat on.It is also very light when empty, so will need to be anchored or full, if left in the wind.I used the inner supplied base to draw an outline onto a piece of 9mm marine ply, which I inserted on top of the plastic bottom to strengthen it, and I also used silicone sealer to seal the seams.Overall, I would say that it is a usable product, but with some pretty big security and strength issues and is over-priced for something so flimsy.

Just what I wanted. Put the red and blue recycling bags in so by bin day they have been kept dry and ready for putting out for the bin men.

Putting this box together is a total disaster. I just did not work and is now residing in the garage, waiting to go to the tip.

Easy instructions

It arrived and I was delighted with it for what I want it’s just perfect. It keeps rain out and its lid stays up and didn’t fall on your head. It’s sturdy great size I would totally recommend I had a cheaper on never again was rubbish rain got in and for what it’s worth this one’s a great price.
