YITAHOME 180 Gallon Large Deck Box w/Divider

We need a storage box for our pool furniture covers...so far, we've been folding them up, and then what? Stuff them behind the furniture, take them inside? Not very satisfying. So, ordered this box, but noticed that a number of buyers complained about the instructions, and had trouble with assembly. My sympathy to those who are intimidated by today's "not so great instructions," and lack of hand holding. The instructions are OK, but you have to stare at them for a while to get the clues. Look, there are six pieces--4 sides, a bottom, and a top. They snap together, and the instructions clearly state "don't put the wrong pieces together because you can not reverse the process. Oh oh. So, here is what you do. Got a rubber mallet? Get it, and a screw driver. If you don't have a rubber mallet, go buy one. No house should be without one, but if you're anxious to put it together, a hammer and small block of wood, or an old shoe will work. Find the piece they show as the bottom (it is not, it is one of the sides, but step one is to put 3 sides together, and one is laid flat for ease of assembly) based on the large letters and arrow. Now find the two sides what also have the molded form that will be where you would lift it up with you left and right hand (these are the left and right side of the box--hand helds will be close to the top edge--helps with orientation in the instructions. An arrow and a label would have been nice). Orient them with the arrows and note that they are the same shape, and that their molded inserts are going to fit in the slots. Take your time. Check the pictures in the instruction book. Check again. All OK? Position them one at a time, and with light strokes tap the pieces together with whatever your using as a hammer (a baseball bat will also work). Your confidence is now soaring!! Now add the fourth side. Easy. Now, only two panels left. The bottom and the top. You now have a cube that is open on both ends. The inside of the bottom (D) is more decorative, the outside is not, but the corner legs are where they are supposed to be. Ah! Tap it into place. Now, to the top. You insert the metal inserts and screw them into place (finally, the screwdriver) if you intend to lock the box. If not, you don't need them. The lid snaps into place where the snaps serve to form the hinges. Altogether, taking your time to feel confident that the two pieces you're about to snap together are indeed the correct ones, about 15 minutes. If you got a job putting this box together, after 2 or 3 of them, you'd have it down to less than 5 minutes. This is easy. Just take your time. The box is great.

I think this is great! I am able to store my chair pillows for 6 chairs with room to spare. Over the summer I have not seen bugs or water get in. I’ve had these types of deck boxes in the past and this one is on the flimsier side. The plastic lid is bendy when opening or closing it but construction snaps together really well and it is not too heavy which is nice. We have been sitting on it over the summer too and it feels sturdy. The hinges are soft open and close. It is a decent budget purpose but I would not consider it “heavy duty”. I plan on getting a matching smaller one for pool items!

I bought this to use as a place for deliveries or packages to be placed, as my porch is highly visible to passerby’s. It works perfectly as a way to store packages out of sight and out of mind until I can retrieve the package. It is light weight, which is okay for me bc I have it on the porch where wind will not blow it. If you both this and put it in a windy location, I would recommend weighing it down or even drilling the bottom into something to anchor it. This isn’t a box for security, as it is super light and easy to assemble. I do not think it would take a criminal long to tear apart if they were determined. There is a place to put a small keyed lock. Which would be ideal to keep kids out, and make it more difficult to break into the box and steal contents. It keeps most of the light rain out, I would not call it waterproof from a direct downpour. Where I have it, it is Pete Ted from the worst of storms, and so far has proven a good way to keep packages dry and out of the wind. Most delivery people see the box and where I used a sharper to write “packages” on the top and use the box. A few ignore the box, this is not the boxes fault. The primary reason for the box was to hide my packages, I had a package waiting on my porch for me to retrieve. This box does exactly that, and bonus offers more protection from packages blowing away in wind or damaged by weather. I would buy it again. The size is good. Not too big and not too small. It can hold the majority of my packages with plenty of room to spare. It is as described in measurements. I think it is a fair price and value. It is hard but a tiny bit bendable plastic. I would not put anything heavy on or in this box for any significant length of time. I could see storing some camping gear, like flashlights and bug spray, or sports balls and nets in the box, or yard sprays or water hose kind of thing. I personally would not store tools, especially heavy tools or heavy items in or on the box. You do you boo. It keeps cats and other nighttime critters out so far, but it is not bug proof or dust proof. It keeps some dust and some bugs out is best I can say.

This comes in six flat pieces and assembly is basically snapping them into place. The plastic pieces are average thickness and has a bit of flex to them. They aren’t super sturdy by itself, but aren’t super cheap feeling either. Snapping them together is simple enough and are secured by indentations. Once locked in, they hold tight and don’t come loose easily. Once fully assembled, the box is decently solid and isn’t overly heavy. It does still have a little wobble/flex to it but overall feels solid for general use. I tried sitting on it and it holds up okay for my 210lb weight. I felt a slight bend on top but it can definitely hold the weight. I’m using this indoors but the top covers the inside well since it has a lip around the edges. Rain on top should be no problem and the sides snap into each other in a way that should prevent leakage. I feel like it would stay relatively dry inside. The plastic pieces do have a pretty smelly machinery/plastic odor to it but should go away after airing it out for a few days. All in all a decent storage box. Measurements listed are accurate and worked perfect for my needs. Just a little more rigidity and it would be perfect.

Easy to assemble, sturdy and attractive.

This is a great deck box, we bought it to store our charcoal and other grilling supplies in and it's perfect. We fit 2 bags of charcoal a giant bag of smoking pellets and some smoking chips in it no problem! The size was perfect for the corner of our deck,tucked in by the chimney. We easily put it together in like 10 minutes, and it feels very strong.

It’s a little tricky to assemble alone. It would have been easier and faster to have had a second person to help putting this together. Once assembled, it’s pretty sturdy. I’m 150 lbs, and it did hold up as I tried to use it as a seat. But, I wouldn’t actually use it as one, and definitely wouldn’t use it as a seat after it being in the sun for a year or two. Also, if I were heavier, I don’t believe it would hold up. As far as what I bought it for? It’s excellent! It’s well made and perfect for daily parcel deliveries from USPS, UPS, DHL, FEDEX and others. I have two small 2”x4” bricks inside of it, to prevent it from flying off in high winds. (Empty, I’s heavier than a 33 gallon, plastic trash can, but I live in an occasionally windy area, and those things, do end up down the road or in the neighbors yard) It’s placed on the side of my home, and closest to where it’s convenient for deliveries to be made. It’s also a place that’s slightly open to the elements. I work for a delivery service, and more and more of my customers have bought similar outdoor storage containers for this purpose. Whenever I have concerned customers that ask for advice for parcel and package deliveries and they don’t have an area where I can secure their delivery, I recommend these types of containers as an option. Pros; 1. It’s waterproof. So it’ll keep packages and parcels off the ground and out of the rain. 2. It keeps deliveries out of direct sunlight. 3. It prevents most pets, animals and critters from your deliveries. 4. It provides a semi-secure place for deliveries. (you could instruct and provide an unlocked padlock in/on the container to be locked after delivery, but it would prevent further deliveries from other carriers for the day. I have had unlocked padlocks, somewhat securing these containers to be left unlocked after deliveries. At a casual glance from the street, it looks like it’s locked) 5. It provides a consistent and convenient delivery location for you and delivery services for ALL deliveries (as a delivery driver, we appreciate these small things for ourselves and our occasional replacements) And most of all…. 6. It prevents porch pirates, nosey neighbors and pedestrians, from having direct line of sight, of any deliveries that you’ve had that day. Cons; 1. If you can keep it out of direct sunlight, I can’t think of any.

The first one we purchased was broken and cracked in several places due to shipping, although the box was not damaged. We returned it for a refund and purchased another.(only because it matched the 2 smaller ones we purchased and they are past their 30 day return) The second one came and is broken in only 2 small places. Fortunately, not on hinges, or any snap on areas. We decided to keep the second one. This item is long, and it was packed well. I simple think this particular item does not ship well. But it looks nice, still works and is functional.

Montage sans vis, facile. Fait bien la job. A lair solide.

À bien résisté à l’hiver sans infiltration d’eau et il est toujours comme un neuf

Love it

Honestly awesome, spacious and keeps everything perfectly dry. Looks good. Only thing was a little tricky to put together alone but I am also not good at these things.

This product is well made and easy to put together. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that the parts are somewhat flimsy, not bad but could be a stronger material.
