Amazon has reduced the price of the Olsen & Smith 170L Lockable Outdoor Garden Plastic Storage Box by 27% in a limited-time deal, bringing it to £32.99 from £44.99. The box is designed to help keep gardens tidy during the summer months and is built to withstand all weather conditions.
Product Features and Materials
The storage box is made from 100% recycled high-quality polypropylene plastic, making it weather-resistant against rain, snow, and harsh sunlight. It includes a four-digit combination padlock for security and is lightweight enough for two people to lift and move easily. The 170L model measures 78 x 43 x 56 cm and weighs 4.8 kg. Additional sizes are available: 118L, 126L, and 270L, each at different prices. The box arrives flat-packed with simple instructions and requires only a screwdriver for assembly, as panels clip together.
Customer Reviews and Ratings
The product has received a high rating of 4.5 out of five stars on Amazon. One five-star review stated: “Good product considering the price. Easy to assemble. Robust and strong enough for my needs.” Another customer wrote: “Easy to assemble. Just right to keep by the front door for parcel delivery. Looks good too.” Some users noted minor drawbacks, such as the padlock hole being small and tricky to access, and the included padlock being flimsy. However, one impressed customer shared: “Just brilliant! So handy as a lot of deliveries are in paper sacks ... and it rains so much these days a box is essential if you don’t have a porch. I would definitely recommend it.”
