Our verdict on the 4’5 x 2’5 Suncast Resin Deck Box With Seat Plastic Garden Storage

The 4’5 x 2’5 Suncast Resin Deck Box With Seat Plastic Garden Storage holds a 5 Years guarantee and fit with seats.

Base material: plastic

Below is a brief overview of how some of the key points of this garden storage fairs across the market.

Guarantee

On a plastic garden storage box, the guarantee that the manufacturer offers is usually a very good indicator of the quality of the building. The longer the guarantee the more the manufacturer believes in the quality of the building they have produced. Typically we see manufacturer guarantees for plastic Garden Storage ranging from zero right up to a limited lifetime guarantee.

This plastic garden storage box comes with a 5 years guarantee. Most plastic garden storage come with a 15 years guarantee (26.04% of them) [1].

For this particular brand (Suncast) they offer 11 [2] different types of guarantees on their plastic garden storage, with the 5 years guarantee on this being the shortest they offer. The 5 years guarantee is found on 84.21% of Suncast plastic garden storage [3], with a 10 year guarantee on 15.79% of its plastic garden storage. It is a shame this garden storage was given the lowest guarantee offered by the brand, and this could be a reasonable indication that the manufacturer doesn’t have as much faith it the overall quality of this part of their product range.

When looking at comparable 4′ x 2′ plastic garden storage (we found 106 of them) the most popular guarantee length offered by manufacturers was 10 years [4]. 72.64% came with a missing guarantee, 4.72% came with a 10 year guarantee, 4.72% came with a 2 year guarantee, 4.72% came with a 5 year guarantee, 3.77% came with a 20 year guarantee, 3.77% came with a 25 year guarantee, 2.83% came with a 15 year guarantee, 1.89% came with a 1 year guarantee and 0.94% came with a 12 year guarantee.

Coastal Consideration – If you live in a particularly wet or harsher environment such as by the coast then you might want to consider something with a more robust pressure treatment or something made from metal or plastic, both materials that are particularly suited to such harsh environments. We’ve found at least 3 garden storage that have a combination of features that can make them more suited to higher wind areas.

Public-Facing – Extra security measures might be more of a concern if you’re placing your building in an area that is more public-facing than a garden. Features such as security windows or even having no windows at all, and the ability to lock all opening doors are usually much more important when you have something that is more public-facing. We found at least 3 garden storage that have options that you might find a better fit if this is a concern you have.
