Keter Store-It-Out Prime 4.3 x 3.7 ft. Outdoor Resin Storage Shed with Easy Lift Hinges, Perfect for Yard Tools, Pool Floats and Garden Accessories, Black

We live in the mountains and have this storage in our front driveway. It has survived snow, rain, and sun. The top lid is very strong and still works perfect. The front doors are thinner and more fragile, and sometimes do not fit in the holes, but once it warms up again they can be put back into place. The doors are large and makes it easy to put our gardening supplies and even our electric snow blower inside. Some dirt does get in so if you want something sealed, maybe look at another option.

The parts arrived in remarkably good condition. Not a scratch or aberration on any of them. Assuming some prior diy on these things, it was very easy and quick to assemble. The main risk is over tighten the screws. I did that one one of them, but that was the only mishap I am aware of. A little bit of sticky tape on hand to hold the back in place while securing helps if assembling alone. It is a very easy task overall as the instructions are clear and simple. It is not particularly study. Adequate, but not special. The floor either needs to be level or made that way. Otherwise you will have door issues. I may eventually put a bit of concrete under the low corner. For now, it has a shim there. If one needs more sturdiness, adding an strong interior shell would be the way to go. I use this to hide garden items that are otherwise an eyesore when not in use. On that score it does well, it looks good, and the eyesores are now hidden inside a much nicer looking item.

If I hadn't gotten this for 31% off, I would have probably given it 3 stars. The good: It is plenty solid. Made of plastic, but there are "fins" that add rigidity. Since it is made of plastic, it'll be around in some form for the next thousand years. I think it looks good. Dark gray on the bottom with a light gray lid. It is clearly not wood, but it has enough texture to avoid looking like a big plastic trash bin. I think it looks better than metal models. Speaking of metal, the plastic should be a bit quieter during rain and hail. Storage capacity is what it is. Although I'm actually a bit surprised by how much room it has. I like that is is wide, but shallow, with a decent amount of height. This will allow me (with shelves) to store lots and lots of random stuff; thus clearing up space in my garage and basement. The clarifications: Doors work fine. I don't have mine on a perfectly flat surface, but once they're latched they are properly flush. Water resistance? Where I live we're in the worst drought since they've been measuring precip. Probably a better chance of this thing just spontaneously bursting into flames than leaking. The bad: Given the pictures and the description, I thought this might provide some decent level of security to whatever I put in it. I think it will resist the casual thief. But if it is visible and someone wants to see if you have gold bullion inside, then you're gonna be out of luck. Give me a small pry bar and I'm in it in a minute or two. Assembly: Took me around an hour on my own. Part of this time was spent finding the tools I needed - drill with phillips head; knife to cut through the plastic holding the hardware; manual screwdriver; and a healthy helping of xa nax to deal with the frustrating assembly design flaws and poor assembly instructions. This could have been SO much easier. And, honestly, I'm not sure how someone without strong hands / experience is going to assemble this. It comes with a floor - no assembly. Sides just snap in. The back comes in two pieces that you screw together - took more time than necessary to discern what the picture was trying to convey, but the screws went in easily (with my drill). Adding the top would have been a breeze if I had 3 hands. As it is, it took a few tries to get the sides to properly fit into the back, while simultaneously adding the lid. This is really the first asinine assembly design flaw. Attach the back to the sides (at least with one screw per side) before putting the lid on? Then I wouldn't have had the sides flopping away from the back. Otherwise you're trying to hold the sides in place with the back while also snapping the lid down. Once everything is fitted together you connect it with nine screws. These went in relatively easily (drill with phillips). The doors. Oh the doors. These SHOULD have been quite easy. And if you follow the pictures EXACTLY you'll save yourself some frustration. Start with the hinge on the bottom, then open the door as wide as possible. The top hinge has a bit of an angle to it so that when open wide, it will fit into the top bracket. It doesn't EASILY fit into that top bracket, but at least it is possible if you swing the door wide. Any other angle and you're not getting that top hinge to pop in place. Door latch -- fairly straight forward how to assemble. Screws -- But then you have to add three screws. Now, I think these metal screws work by becoming wider from the tip to the top - thus expanding the plastic as you insert them and making a very solid connection. Problem I had was that (a) the holes were too tight or the screws were too big; and (b) the phillips slots on the screws started stripping if I used my drill (which has never happened before, and I've used my drill as a screwdriver numerous times). The phillips slots seemed to not be deep enough and the metal was too soft. Ultimately, from this point forward, I needed to drill out the plastic to even get the screws in. And I ultimately started using a manual screwdriver, because the drill just ate up the screw tops. Poorly planned assembly instructions: So you are almost done. Lid is on. Walls are up. Door are on. Handles / latch are on. Now. . . NOW (?) . . . you're going to add things towards the back of the lid. Things you could have done BEFORE the lid was attached. Instead, you get to try to insert these screws in an awkward position while the lid fails to defy gravity and, accordingly, tries to slam on your head or your hand or any other body part in the neighborhood. Do yourself a favor - attach the piston / resisters to the walls before you put the lid on. And add the middle lid supporting bracket to the back before you put the lid on. This will save you scaring the neighbors that a pirate with tourettes has moved in next door.

I was going to buy another plastic shed from the same seller that I got the last one from but I found this shed for $80 less. I figured the build quality would be roughly the same but boy was I wrong. This thing is built like a plastic trash can with hinges and a latch, very lightweight, very flimsy and I doubt it will hold up well. If I had paid about $100 it might be worth it but $180 is just too much for this poor build quality. I bought this for my electric lawn mower so we'll see just how water tight it is. It was easy enough to assemble but engineered poorly so some of how it's designed just doesn't make any sense. With the side vents near the top I suspect any wind is going to blow rain right inside of it and since the bottom is tub like it's not going to drain if rain does blow in. Really the only thing I can see this being useful for is to keep trash cans in otherwise it's just not very useful. Definitely would NOT buy again. *Update* I noticed today that after sitting in my yard for 2 months there's a big crack in the bottom pan so now the floor isn't even water tight. I regret wasting my money on this garbage.

This has been a great outdoor storage space. It’s big enough for my needs of a big storage tub, manual push mower, weed whacker, soil storage, tool storage, etc. great value for the price and looks great.

For the price and the brand name I had higher expectations than what I received. Some background on my, i've been a consumer product designer with a focus on injection molded parts for almost 25 years. So products like this are right in my wheelhouse, therefor my feedback isn't just the average homeowner. The package arrived 2 days early, hooray Amazon! The box faired ok, but a couple of the corners were crushed and another spot had a tear/gouge into the carton, but the plastic directly behind that area was ok. I had the package laying flat on the ground and as I went to pull the assembly out of the box i grabbed what ended up being the base and as i pulled the plastic ribbing on the underside cracked as i pulled. So I stopped and shook everything the rest of the way out. This immediately set off the red flags on durability....both due to a combo of their material selection and wall thickness and ribbing design. I did find another piece of broken plastic floating around in the box which appeared to come from the cover as it was light grey in color. Another disappointment. Fortunately it wasn't functional or an aesthetic area. The unit went together super easy. You can see by my photos i had a unique use for the setup. Only issue with assembly was that i didn't care for how they did the back panel. In my installation scenario, all the sides are exposed. So the way they designed the back, half of it looks like it should and the other half looks like it's inside out because it's the same 2 pieces, they just have it flipped for 1 half. Great way to save money on tooling and molding, but it looks like poo for free standing installs like mine. Other note for assembly is using a electric driver will make quick work of installing the screws....just go easy and don't overdue it or you'll strip the plastic in a heartbeat....so go slow! I built a picture frame pressure treated base with cross members for my install because it's installed in the woods next to my cabin, so i wanted an even flat surface. However, the base still feels "soft" even with the cross members below it. So beware. And i say that because in one of the steps they show a person kneeling inside to install the screws....not sure i would suggest that as cracking the base would be likely. Overall it will keep the rain off the electrical components inside, but i'm not sure how this will fair during and after some UV and a Wisconsin winter of snow...TBD. I think they could have chosen a more robust plastic and maybe improved some design elements to further increase durability. I have a 10+ year old Rubber Maid branded 8'x10' shed at home and it's far more robust than this and the plastic definitely has way more give than this PP (polypropylene) that they used.

Not that difficult to put together, BUT I was not able to have it put together for several months, I did not check it for damage, I opened the box a few weeks ago and the corners of the lid were total destroyed as if someone threw it, needless to say I was not happy, I took a chance and called Keter and got a very helpful CSR named Gina, she told me to take a picture and send it along with the receipt and they would check into it. KETER sent me a new lid free of charge. Thank you Gina and Keter. will continue to buy your products.

We put this in the front of our house for our garbage pails. It is sleek and good looking and the size is perfect. Good quality and you can lock it. We are sorry we did not purchase this years ago.
