Suncast DB9750 Extended Deck Box / Seat


It is amazing what fits inside this container but not perfect.4

I bought this to store all of my patio furniture cushions.



I was able to fit the following:

* 4 chair seat bottoms

* 1 lower 2-seater bench cushion

* 1 thick 2-seater back bench cushion

* 2 large swivel chair bottom cushions

* 2 thick swivel chair back cushions



These cushions max out every inch of the space inside but it is exactly'

what I wanted.



The only complaint I have is the cheesy plastic loops that "help" keep the lid open.

This was a very cheap solution. I own other containers like this that actually have

a gas stay inside. I would have paid a few dollars more to have a better device like that.

Sadly no one else makes a container this big. So this is kind of your only choice out there.



Another note if you are going to put this beside a wall it will have to sit several inches

away from the wall to allow the lid to open all of the way. This item is so huge it is kind of a bummer

that the design forces you to have it out so far from the wall. My house is made of stucco so repeated

banging into the wall creates bald spots on the stucco this is a problem for us.



It was super easy to put together. I was done in just a few minutes. Don't worry about all of those complaints.



If you need a lot of storage you can't do better than this one. Size is it's strength.

Just remember you are not paying for something made of bricks it is inexpensive and made of plastic.

If you keep this in mind you will not be disappointed.More detail ...

Suncast DB5000 Deck Box 50-gallon


Very useful deck box -- but too small for big patio cushions5

We purchased the Suncast DB5000 Deck Box over a year ago. I'm pleased to report that it has held up to the Houston heat humidity and rain extremely well. This is a great box for storing all of those "miscellaneous things" that tend to clutter one's patio. Only one disappointment: we recently purchased patio furniture and this box is not big enough to hold any of the cushions. So if you are thinking about buying this for patio cushions be sure to measure your cushions FIRST and compare it against this box's inner dimensions. But in terms of functionality and keeping things neat and waterproof this box is a wonderful asset!!More detail ...
