This is a nice storage box. Far from water proof. It is a nice size and will hold numerous patio accessories. Not close to the same quality of the old Rubbermaid products. It appears they have have adopted the philosophy price is more important than quality.

Rubbermaid use to be a world class company with best in market products. I can't get over the assembly process for this chest. It is necessary to take a hammer and screw driver, per instructions, and beat our eight plugs in the base of the chest. This takes at least 20 minutes and should have been performed during the manufacturing process. Additionally, there is no pre-drilling where the holes to attach the straps (cheap) which are needed to be mounted to prevent the top from falling backwards.
