Our all-around top choice is Keter's Brightwood all-weather deck box for its solid capacity, durability, and good looks—and it doubles as extra seating for two adults.

At 120 gallons, the large outdoor storage box is spacious enough to hold everything from pool towels to furniture cushions, and its all-weather build means it’s virtually maintenance-free.

In terms of style, our eyes are drawn to its subtle, wooden appearance and details such as corners fashioned to resemble tapered wooden legs. All the essential features are there, too, including a padlock and hydraulic pistons for easy opening and closing—and no slamming down on fingers.

The Brightwood deck box is available in off-white or anthracite gray, and it’s reasonably priced to boot. The only potential drawback is that it may be quite heavy to move if filled to capacity, though the same applies to all large deck boxes.

We recommend Keter's Westwood all-weather deck box if you love the look of wood but want the durability only resin can deliver. It’s spacious inside, and we also appreciate that this model can be used as bench seating, as it’s sturdy enough to support two adults.

Other highlights include two handles on each side and hydraulic pistons that easily slide open and closed to prevent the cover from slamming down on your fingers. The lid also has a latch in front so you can bolt it shut with a padlock to keep items inside secure.

This compact deck box from Lifetime could also easily be used as a bench, side table, footrest, and much more during outdoor time. With a 25-gallon capacity, it's great for smaller patios and decks. It’s also a solid option for camping trips in vans and tents alike since it is easier to transport than other larger options.

The detachable lid snaps on and off. The storage cube includes powder-coated steel hardware, and though the capacity is small, it is sturdy and weather-resistant, making it a good option for more compact outdoor storage.

This outdoor storage box is easy to move around, thanks to a set of rollers underneath the base. Like most of the deck boxes here, it’s made of resin, so hardly any maintenance is required.

The 80-gallon capacity is substantial enough for most people, and this outdoor storage box is more water-resistant than some other options we write about. It’s also reasonably priced. But while streamlined, Keter’s Springwood model isn’t the most stylish the brand offers.
