Probably most people would need bigger size to qualify as cushion storage.  This will only hold a couple cushions 14 inch if in sideways 12 or 13 inch if square in the box. Most patio furniture has fitted cushions 18x19 inches. Probably would not use for cushion storage and would need a 20 inch square space at least for patio cushion storage. Otherwise box came easily, fast, and easy for my husband to put together.
