Product Information
Full details
The Costway 185L Patio Storage Bench is designed for homeowners looking to combine relaxation with organization in gardens, porches, or entryways. This 2-in-1 furniture piece offers a dual-purpose solution that functions as a comfortable two-seat bench and a generous storage compartment for cushions, gardening tools, or outdoor essentials. While it provides an elegant aesthetic through its poplar wood construction, users should be mindful that like all wood furniture, it requires routine maintenance to remain protected against harsh weather conditions.

FAQs
What is the weight capacity of this bench?
The bench is designed to comfortably seat two adults; however, avoid exceeding standard furniture weight limits to ensure long-term stability.
Is the storage area waterproof?
The Oxford lining offers protection from dust and light moisture, but the bench is not hermetically sealed. It is best used in covered areas.
Does the bench come with all tools needed for assembly?
Standard hardware is included, but you will need your own screwdriver to complete the assembly process.
Can I leave the bench outside all year round?
While the wood is durable, we recommend covering it or storing it indoors during severe weather to prevent premature wear and fading.
How do I clean the Oxford fabric lining?
The lining can generally be wiped down with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemical cleaners as they may degrade the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Lid feels heavy or difficult to open
Check the tension of the spring lifting brackets and ensure all mounting screws are tightened to the frame.
Bench wobbles on uneven ground
Adjust the positioning of the bench or use small rubber furniture shims under the legs to level the unit.
Oxford lining becomes damp
Ensure the bench lid is fully closed and the unit is not sitting in a location prone to direct, heavy rainfall. Allow the interior to air out on a sunny day.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly: The bench arrives as a flat-pack kit. Ensure you have a clear, flat surface for assembly and use a screwdriver to secure all fasteners tightly as per the included instruction manual.
Compatibility: Its classic white finish pairs well with most outdoor decor styles. Because it is made of natural wood, it is best suited for porches, decks, or balconies with some overhead coverage.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the wood surfaces periodically with a damp cloth to remove dust and pollen.
- Seasonality: During extreme winter or heavy rainy seasons, consider covering the bench with a furniture tarp or moving it into a garage to extend its lifespan.
- Treatment: Consider applying a weather-resistant wood sealant or outdoor varnish annually to prevent moisture penetration and preserve the white finish.
