In spite of excellent reviews, my expectations were still exceeded by the quality of the materials, sturdiness and classy looks of this 31 gallon container. It looks perfect on our patio. It is both functional and classy and best part is that it will always look classy and never fade or deteriorate like wood or metal. It has a hinged top which is nice and allows for a good closed lid seal. It came with a large glossy paper instruction manual with very clear diagrams and written instructions, and all the parts were labeled. It required no tools to assemble it and basically snaps together tightly with a good and snug fit that "even a Caveman could assemble". (It is designed to be "permanent assemble". It is not something that you can disassemble later, and because it is a "permanent assemble", it is very sturdy. (Just read the instructions BEFORE you start trying to assemble it to be sure you are connecting the right parts together because once connected, you might not be able to undo it). That said, it takes only minutes to review the instructions, and 5-10 minutes to completely assemble it. The quality of the assembled container is A++. It can be easily moved with the side handles and can even be locked with a padlock, if one so desired. Inside the container is very roomy. I also like the fact that it is water proof and insect proof, meaning there are NO tiny spaces or gaps where water or insects could get in. This is important because I am storing my birdfeeders in it as I take them down at night. Even with 3 feeders in there, there is still plenty more room for garden tools and hose sprayers. This container is far superior in sturdiness and classy looks than to the ones bought at the large discount and home improvement stores. I highly recommend it! This outdoor Storage Box-Container is a keeper and sure to last for many years. A++
