Keter Westwood 150 Gallon Deck Box
Best overall — The default large deck box: 150 gallons of wood-look resin, lockable, about $195, 4.5★ across 14,783 — over ten thousand more owners than any rival on this page. Its faults are the category's: water on the lid runs in when you open it, and the plastic is thinner than it looks.
How to read a Showdown Score™
The only score that counts how often a product breaks, not just how owners feel about it.
- Three parts add up to the score: what owners rate it, how often it fails them, and whether a credentialed tester backed it.
- Bands: Exceptional 8.5 and up, Excellent 7.5, Very good 6.5, Good 5.5, Fair 4, Poor below 4. Every score is dated.
- Price, the warranty and what a link pays us stay out of it.
Very good
Very good is 6.5 to 7.4.

Pros
- The deepest owner base of any deck box we could find — 4.5★ across 14,783, every visible review a verified purchase, none from the Vine programme
- About $195 for 150 gallons: the same size as the Denali for about $65 less
- Keter is the maker Bob Vila and The Spruce both put at the top of their tested lists (for sibling models), and Amazon ships it itself
Cons
- "Waterproof until you open the lid": rain that pools on the top runs into the box when the lid lifts — the top critical theme, and one owner adds that the lid does not lie flat at the sides
- Mice get in — two owners in the ten critical reviews we read sealed the lid gap with expanding foam
- The resin is thinner than the photos suggest ("shoddy plastic construction", "pretty thin"), and the brown runs much darker than pictured
- The rating pools six colour listings on one base and includes Canadian, German and Japanese reviews
- No published warranty term we could find on Keter's own site
Water and mice. "Waterproof until you open the lid" — "if there is any water on top of box" it runs in as the lid lifts; a second owner photographs a lid that "lifts at the sides so not reliably water proof". Then rodents: "they are not mice proof", "mice got in. had to go around the lid with expanding foam". Then the plastic: "shoddy plastic construction, assembly slots on my product misaligned", "The plastic is thin and feels like it will fall apart", a lid with "surface damage which had a bubbling appearance", and a brown that is "MUCH darker" than pictured. Eight of the ten are three-star.

✓ Safety: no active recall — CPSC recall API checked 2026-09-05: ProductName=deck box → 0 records; ProductName=storage box → 1 (GunBox #14730, 2014, a gun safe — a different product); ProductName=Keter → 0 deck-box recalls. CPSC's long-standing guidance on toy and storage chests concerns freely falling lids that can trap a child; every box on this page has a lockable lid, and the piston or spring lids hold themselves open — lock it when small children play nearby, and never let a child climb in.
