Suncast Elements 30-Gallon End Table with Storage - Lightweight Resin Outdoor Storage Patio and Coffee Table for Cushions, Gardening Tools and Toys - Store Items on Patio - White, Made in the USA

This is a very durable, yet lightweight storage box. I bought it to store Pool Supplies on our Pool Deck, which is under re-construction, so I cannot speak to how it may be affected by the sun. I am currently storing our Pool Robot on the top, which weighs about 20-25 pounds, and a few inflatable toys inside, and it has been very durable. It was a bit complex to put together, but overall it is a well built item with plenty of strength - I'm 135 lbs and can sit on it without concern. Take your time with the instructions and follow to the T and it will be great!

easy to put together strong walls and floor decent weight top works ok I use it to store towels near pool good size to fit in a smaller place or as a coffee table for patio furnitue

Very happy with purchase. Took a bit to settle in as well as build to begin with. Bought as a gift for someone that isn't a 'brown' fan. Their porch furniture set is resin wicker with medium soft warm brown tones and 'bronze' framing parts. The key purpose for the purchase was to offer a small footprint storage piece, that also can be used as a coffee table and occasional 'light' seating (since this piece is not specifically designed as bench seating'. We added a DIY seat cushion tying it in with other furniture pieces. It took a bit to get used to, it isn't quite the same caliber as other higher grade resin wicker pieces on the porch. Yet, it ends up a winner. Storage was immediately found to be a valuable addition, now this item stores a few throw pillows & other garden tools/porch odds & ends in two added tupperware-like bins placed inside. Everything stays very dry. Easy to get in & out, even with the cushion atop. It was a bit of a bugger to build, even with my lengthy experience in such things. Screw holes are not punched through/open already and at a slant. Gettling all sides completely 'snapped in' top to bottom took a couple tries. But, patience, a glass of wine during construction, and knowing in the end that the storage and other uses to come, made it worth the exercise. We did not end up installing the top 'latch' piece yet, top opens & closes fine and there is so far no need to secure further. As an owner of several such suncast etc. outdoor items, true returns come from pieces such as this that do hard duty in storage etc. outdoors even in colder climates such as we have where we live. Very happy with the purchase. Size was a perfect answer for the slightly space-challenged porch area it now serves.

I live in a high rise in the Midwest with an 8'x20' patio . My patio has Minimal sun but snow and rain can draft in. So, I needed something to survive 100+ and -5 temperatures while giving extra storage space (high rises are not well known in my neck of the woods for their abundance in storage space) and this coffee table fit the bill perfectly!I would give it 5 stars but assemble was a pain in the butt. It looks easy when taken out of the box but the main plastic parts have no labeling of what is considered up or down. (For construction these points are a key component.) it took two people and an embarrassing long amount of time to put the frame together. That's even before we started in with the hardware... Which is also a frustrating point.They ask you to screw in the hardware in really awkward angles in tight spots. This part would be VERY difficult for anyone with arthritis in their hands or back. Also, the points where you need to screw in the screws are not pre-holed. I had to puncture the plastic prior to screwing in some spots.Also, I found it weird that Suncast doesn't have any instructional videos on YouTube. They have this great promo video but nothing beyond that.Total time spent on installation: 45-60 minutes, if you include our breaks for adult beverages and moments of foul mouthing.All in all, I would definitely, 100% buy again but would make sure to have adult beverages on hand.

I first bought a pair of the Elements Chairs, which I really loved. I thought I would look for something else to provide "ottoman" and "table" space but everything I could buy from a brick and mortar store, was pretty low quality and very expensive. Although you need to be careful to "slide in" the sides of this table so that they don't go wonky, overall, the assembly was quite simple with my electric drill and 3 inch drill bits - and I am one of those people who ALWAYS struggles with assembly - so for me to make this claim is a pretty wonderful thing! I'm using the "end table" as an ottoman for one of the chairs and have placed the "coffee table" between the two chairs on my very small patio. All of the pieces look fantastic, are incredibly sturdy and have a terrific proportion. I've added some bright yellow seat cushions to go with my bright yellow patio umbrella and it just looks wonderfully welcoming, clean and fresh. I really love these products and would buy them again/recommend them to friends.
