The size of this product surprised me. It not only holds my patio lounger cushions but also has plenty of room for additional items I want to store outside. The ability to lock it is a plus to keep children from playing in it or to help deter theft. Overall, it's a pretty good product short of home-built out of lumber, and should last a long time. The top can always be reinforced with steel channel iron to provide weight support (sitting on it) and to avoid weather warping.
