This deck box turned out to be exactly what we needed to store our covers for our large deck chairs and our fire pit cover. The box itself is attractive and appears to be of good quality. The only draw-back we have encountered, was with the top... after a recent rain, the top had some water on it. When opening the top, some of the water ran off the back side of the top and down inside the back of the box. Other than that slight "learning curve", we are totally happy with the box. As advertised, the box is of heavy enough construction to actually sit on the top, if desired.
