I'm incredibly pleased with this deck box! Yeah, I know, no instruction sheet but the assembly diagram is on the box if you just look at it carefully! I did put the bottom upside down at first, but when stuff didn't line up it was a no-brainer to flip the bottom over. It is SO sturdy and holds a ton of yard stuff. Makes the whole yard look better and can double as a serving area as it's right next to the grill. It also supports two adults as a bench with no bowing or bending whatsoever. Also very easy to clean after someone cleaned the eaves right over the top of it. Very satisfied with this box. I've owned it for over 3 years.
