Took less than 5 min to assemble no tools required other than scissors to get it out of the box... nice! Looks good and feels sturdy when assembled. Perfect size for a small patio (mine is 8’ x 15’). It fit 2, 2’ seat cushions, 2, 16” pillows, 2, 12” pillows, a 2’ collapsable step stool, and 2 cans of mosquito repellant (could still fit a few more small items)... and lid still closed! I would have given it a 5 but the hinge mechanism could be better made. The plastic is flimsy on the female ends so the great lockable feature isn’t functional since you can open it from the hinge side of the lid. Definitely recommend if you don’t need the locking feature.
