Which one should you buy?

Our top pick is the Costway 118L Indoor/Outdoor Storage Box, sharing the highest rating in this guide and the most flexible thanks to its bench-and-side-table design. For the best value, the Gardeon 490L gives big families a huge lockable chest for a midrange price. For a small balcony or porch, the Gardeon 80L is the compact option, although it had no featured offer on Amazon Australia at the 5 October 2026 check.
