“Bought the first one to use in our sunroom to store all the items that we were throwing on the floor. It holds so much and we can sit on it to put our shoes on before we go outside. It goes with our wicker furniture quite well. Loved it so much bought the second for our front porch. It holds our recycle bin, boxes for glass recycle, grill accessories, and other misc. items. Our porch looks so much better now. Very sturdy. Easy to assemble. Love the looks. Recommend!” – Linda4664 (Source: Amazon)

“Easiest thing to assemble I have ever had. It is reasonably priced and very large capacity. The only issue is that two of the parts were cracked although the box was not damaged. I did not call the company that sold it but called Keter, the company that makes it. They could not have been more accommodating. They sent me the parts right away.” – Phyllis Sheridan (Source: Amazon)

“I like that is easy to assemble and very roomy I suggest you read the instruction before you start I did it by myself but it’s better if it’s with two people. I sat and lay on it and it felt really sturdy And I also love the price of course” – Regino Deaza (Source: Amazon)

“Very easy to assemble. Fit all 6 of my bigger chair cushions plus 4 seat cushions. Michigan just had a big thunderstorm and these cushions stayed dry as a bone, and no smells from being in there all summer.” – Tony (Source: Amazon)

“Great value, looks nice, tons of storage. Much better value than anything at a chain store. Lots of room, reasonable price, quality design. We have ours full of cushions, bird food, yard tools, etc. strong enough to sit on too.” – Doug Hellwig (Source: Amazon)

“My husband had it together and on dock before I could even get outside! 3 hours later we had a severe, heavy thunderstorm for 2 hours. All my floats were totally dry!! It looks great, water proof and I’m getting another!” – Tina Gurubel (Source: Amazon)

“I love this outside storage unit! I needed something big enough to hold all the cushions to my patio set, and this is it! It’s not chintzy and it’s very durable! Very much recommended.” – Elysia T (Source: Amazon)

Other Outdoor Uses

Poolside Organizer: The Sumatra deck box is the ideal solution for organizing and protecting poolside must-haves. With a substantial 135-gallon capacity, it can accommodate larger pool items such as inflatable floats, pool noodles, and safety equipment. The ventilation ensures that wet items have air circulation to dry, reducing the risk of mildew, and the waterproof construction means that stored items remain unaffected by sudden rain showers. Its flat top surface can also serve as a makeshift side table for refreshments or poolside lounging areas.

Garden Equipment Storage: For avid gardeners, maintaining an organized and accessible collection of tools and supplies is a priority. The spacious interior is perfect for storing spades, shears, gardening gloves, fertilizer, and watering paraphernalia. Its tough resin construction ensures that it stands up against sharp tools and heavy bags of soil or mulch. The box’s UV resistance means it won’t fade over time, even when exposed to hours of sunlight daily, while the natural rattan-look appearance blends elegantly into any garden setting.

Patio Cushion and Entertainment Center: Large patio furniture cushions are often susceptible to weather damage, but they can be bulky and inconvenient to move inside every evening. By using the Sumatra deck box, these items can be stored just steps away from where they’re used. In addition, homeowners who enjoy entertaining outdoors can store various entertainment essentials, such as board games, frisbees, and outdoor speaker systems, keeping them on hand and ready to use during impromptu gatherings or family outdoor movie nights.

Outdoor Bench and Party Supply Cache: The dual-function design of the Sumatra box provides homeowners with not just storage but additional outdoor seating. As a bench, it offers an attractive and convenient spot for guests to sit during garden parties or barbecues. Its interior can be stocked with essential hosting supplies, such as outdoor tablecloths, string lights, and non-perishable snacks, ensuring readily accessible items for a last-minute get-together. The automatic opening mechanism is especially convenient when hands are full, allowing for easy access to stored goods.

Secure Package Delivery Box: The increasing prevalence of online shopping means more packages arriving at doorsteps, posing a risk for theft and exposure to the elements. Homeowners can transform the storage box into a secure drop-off location, advising delivery personnel to place packages inside and locking the unit. The interior keeps packages out of sight from potential thieves and protects delicate items from rain, snow, and extreme temperatures. Its substantial size can accommodate most package dimensions, and the robust design deters tampering.
