Looks exactly as advertised but feels a tiny bit cheap, especially for the price. It isn’t perfectly secure for sitting on and is not rain proof since there are holes on top - so we had to purchase a 30 rain cover for it. It does store a ton and fits our glider cushions perfectly, plus serves as a great coffee table, so we still enjoy it despite the imperfections. The lid does open very nicely and stays open till you close it with ease, and that’s great!
