What material is the storage box made from?
It is made from durable, multi-wall resin with a decorative wicker-effect finish.

The box is water-resistant, designed to protect contents from outdoor elements. However, very heavy rain may lead to minor seepage, and it is recommended to ensure the lid is fully closed.

Troubleshooting
Lid does not open smoothly.
Check that the gas struts are properly seated and not obstructed. Ensure there are no items inside the box pressing against the lid's mechanism. Clean around the strut mechanism if dirt is present.
Water seeps into the box after rain.
Ensure the lid is fully closed and seated correctly. Check the seal around the lid for any damage or debris. While designed to be water-resistant, heavy downpours or prolonged exposure might lead to minor seepage. Ensure drainage holes (if present) are clear.
Parts do not align during assembly.
Verify that you are using the correct parts for the current step as per the instruction manual. Ensure panels are oriented correctly. Do not force parts; if alignment is difficult, re-check previous steps.
Color appears faded.
This can occur with prolonged, direct UV exposure. While UV-resistant, extreme conditions can lead to some fading over time. Cleaning with a mild, color-safe cleaner may help restore some vibrancy. Consider repositioning the box if possible to reduce direct sun exposure.
