KeterEden Bench 265L Outdoor 60% recycled Garden Furniture Storage Box Beige & Brown Wood Panel Effect | Fade Free | All Weather Resistant | Safe and Secure | Zero Maintenance | 2 year Warranty

I am really pleased with keter 265 storage bench.It came on time delivery guy put it where I wanted it, the one corner of the box was damaged and he apologised as he had picked it up with plastic ties and they were not on very good, was not his fault. Any way I opened up and everything was OK, I ticked off and checked every thing as they advise. The instructions and markings on each item was great as I'm a 78 years young lady only small in height I did wonder am I going to do this by my self 😅But have a go, it took me couple of hours as I did have a coffee stop at one stage.Found it all very easy to understand even on the 2 person stage I wedged it between fence and a plant pot, where there,s a way 😀Only part I had a bit of difficulty with was stage12 sliding the base down but I don't think the breeze helped and me only being 5feet high, but I did it.I'm very pleased with this product and if it lives upto Keter products that I've purchased in the passed that will be greatLooks good and a lot of storage space.Thank you

Good product but takes to long to work out how to butt together the delivery was poor the top of the box was 6in bigger then the bottom and the manual was on the ground next to the gate which the driver worked over when he left

Read lots of the reviews for this product before placing my order on the 15/2/25. I needed an item for storage while emptying my garage/workshop. The idea of it being a seat proved even more useful. The reviews were very mixed but so long as all the bits were there and it went together I'd be happy.Large box arrived on 18/2/25, well packed which was good becaused the delivery driver tried to carry it by one of the plastic ties around it which broke! Not surprisingly, he dropped the box. He placed it in my garage for me to open at leisure.Morning of the 19/2/25, I opened the box and carfully removed all componants, checking them off and checking over them for faults. Nothing missing (in fact, extra screws were supplied), a couple a bits looked slghtly warped but from previous experience with flat packs, all had a bit of give in it so should go together. Layed an old sheet on the living room carpet and began putting it together (didn't want to do it on a hard service and scratch it). Everything was stamped with its number and the instructions were clear to follow.All was going well, I even managed step 4 on my own where it said 2 people. Step 5 took the longest time, getting the 2 slots in the centre to click in ( they had not been pressed out thoroughly) but an old flat bladed screwdriver serviced as a good mini chisel to cut the plastic away. Following steps all went smoothly until 12, fitting the 2nd side end on. Again a little cutting away of a slightly warped piece of plastic and it all clicked in fine. By click, you do hear a proper click when it falls into place. They suggest wearing work gloves, please do, I got a nasty pinch mark in the palm of my hand pushing one of the foot bases on, my own fault, I took the gloves of to do that bit! Took me 2 & 1/2 hours on my own from start to finish.Once finished it feels very sturdy and doesn't look too bad either, with a cushion on the seat and even a throw over the whole bench you would never know.Lots of storage space (it does say a maximum of 71lb inside). Very pleased with it considering the price. I would recommend this piece of furniture/storage. Can't say if its waterproof yet, it has only been stood ouside for 90 mins on a dry day!In the safety instructions it mentions "Wear safety googles and follow the manufacturers instructions when using power tools." You do NOT need any power tools to assemble this bench.

Why did you choose this product over others?:Looks smart and different to others. Made by well known company. Good reviews. Husband built on his own with the best instructions he's ever had (thats what he said). Looks great. Stable and comfortable. Nice size. Will fit lots of stuff inside safely and dry. Great early delivery to back gate. Love it.

Why did you choose this product over others?:Good value for money and easy to assemble with clear instructions and even spare screws!Very pleased with this purchase.Arrived quickly too and with good communication from the delivery team.

Well made and clips together well. Some points need a bit of finger / hand strength to push in.Otherwise a great jigsaw puzzle.Functionality:Nice to be able to put things in

At 68 years old, it had taken me just under an hour to put together, so should be easier for you youngsters, good solid bench, storage adequate, but seat gets hot in the sun with it being black,.

The item itself is not too bad and easy to build. The base flooring is corrugated plastic so it will hold some weight but I'm not sure if it would hold a heavy load. I would have given 4 stars if the seat didn't split after two weeks of use. It's obvious that the moulding that had a weak spot.However, customer service was great and sorted a refund with no hassle. Otherwise it would have been a two star rating.
