Outdoor Storage Solutions from Keter {Giveaway - Ends 11/8}

When it comes to plastic storage solutions for your home and garden, Keter has you covered. As one of the world’s leading manufacturers and marketers of resin-based household and garden consumer products, it's easy to see the expertise they hold when shopping their innovative selection. With garden furniture and outdoor storage boxes, shelving systems, utility cabinets, kids products and more, improving your home's organization can be easy, and fun too.

 I received complimentary product for review purposes. All opinions are 100% my own.

With warm weather behind us, it's time to store all those outdoor summer toys, and cover that outdoor furniture that won't hold up to the storms ahead. If you're looking for outdoor storage solutions, you just might find what you need with a Keter outdoor storage box. We received the Borneo Deck Box to check out for ourselves, and it's definitely come in quite handy as we prepare for the coming months.

The Borneo Deck Box is one of Keter's newest outdoor storage boxes. With it's integrated rattan design and espresso brown color, it can easily blend with existing outdoor furniture and add a touch of style to your outdoor living space.

Assembly took me about 20 minutes, and was relatively simple. The most challenging part was getting the panel pieces to "click" together, which required putting all my weight on top of each piece to get that to happen. This definitely can be done with one person, but two would be best, especially for attaching the lid. Overall it's a pretty easy build-it-yourself project.

Once assembled, the Borneo Deck Box measures 51" by 27.6" and is 24.6" high. It has a 105 gallon capacity inside, so it's incredibly spacious and wonderful for holding anything you need to store. Since the all-weather plastic resin will not rust, dent, or peel, you have a maintenance-free deck box that can stay out all year in every type of weather, protecting the contents inside. The box is not air-tight and sealed (remember, the pieces "click" together), but it's designed in such a way that rain will not get inside. There are ventilation holes on the underside rims of each side that are strategically placed to avoid rain entering the box. This is great for avoiding a potential mess of stinky, moldy items inside the box come Spring time.

What I love most about the Borneo Deck Box is that it doubles a bench also. It's versatility as a storage box and also a bench for sitting is very appealing. The plastic is forgiving, but is more than capable of holding Hubby, me, and Buddy without the lid buckling in at all. Believe me, we've tested this out many times!

The lid opens and closes gently with the automatic opening mechanism. It will not slam on little fingers and based on how this mechanism is in the box, pinching is practically impossible too.

We opted to not get cushions for our Borneo Deck Box yet (which would store nicely inside the box for cold, wet weather), so for now we're storing a few sporting items and outdoor summer toys. Since taking this photo we've also added Buddy's squirt guns and gardening tools, a box of our old shoes for dirty outdoor activities, our car wash bucket and a few more odd things that I just don't want out. Realistically, I'd love to put all my gardening tools in it but Keter has a few other outdoor storage options that will work even better for that anyway. It fits a lot of stuff though!

We're beyond happy with the Borneo Deck Box and highly recommend it as an excellent outdoor storage and seating option. With it's sophisticated rattan style, it serves as outdoor decor with plenty of functionality. It's a practical outdoor piece that you really shouldn't pass up. I really, really love having it in our backyard. If the Borneo just isn't your style, Keter has many other deck boxes to choose from, so go check them out!
