I just purchased the storage box about a week ago and have already put it to use.  It holds my small garden tools and work gloves.  I have plenty of space for chair cushions.   It also works well as a table in front of my swing. It appears to be sturdy and well made and was easy to put together.  I'll let you know how it holds up after this season.  I am giving it a 4 until I see how it last through the weather.
