***Update- after a year, I noticed the slats in one corner of the lid were separating from their perpendicular counterparts. I didnt have reason to open the box for several months, but when I did, all of the lid slats were basically rotten. The piece is under an overhang so it can get sideways rain but its not 100 exposed. The claims that this piece is water resistant are absolutely false. Clearly, this wood has absorbed water, swelled, and turned into sponge. Its too bad because I did really like this. Of course, Wayfair will do nothing because its been over a year. Back to Rubbermaid for outdoor storage***
Really happy with this piece. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that the pre-drilled holes for the hinge to attach to the lid are not inline. I had to re-drill them (on both sides) 3 times. Relatively easy fix, but annoying nonetheless.
