Anyone got one?

Is it suitable to store things like pressure washer, garden vac. etc. and be waterproof ?

Myworkshop is full!!!!!!!!!!!!

i have a Keter one, which looks pretty much the same. i wouldn't put anything of value in it- mine was broken into very easily. They smacked the lock and the hinged part holding the lid down (Hasp??) popped out of the lid, allowing it to open. There would have been other wasys of getting in, they are not very secure

Ideal for things like garden chair cushions, bbq charcoal, stuff like that. it will keep them dry.

Thanks Marcos for info.

Lived in our road 46 years not a throurgh route upto now never had trouble, we are not off propery much so should be OK.

Its the electrics like pressure washers and that sort of stuff. nothing expensive.

I bought mine from Homebase for£99.99 delivered, they put the offer on every once in a while

My welder and large power-washer live in there with other tackle
Bone dry thus far after a few months

Keter is a good make; easy to assemble

I just poked a metal bar through the lock hole; as mentioned could be burgled easy enough

Naughty Amazon.

there was a pop up here on the forum advertising the Keter storeage unit at £95 so I did one stop purchase.
Emails comes in with VAT added and £3.96 postage.

Total cost now comes out at £100.05 accepting this time but it should not happen imo.
