It looked uqite flimsy when being put together. No instructions but easy to figures out. Once assembled quite strong, waterproof and very attractive looking storage box. Lots of space to hold little things, covers, garden candles , a few cushions etc. Not big enough to put more than 4 cushions. Only gripe is that the lid hinge bracket is quite weak and feeble, i can see this breaking but wouldn’t stop it from working
