What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives 450 liters for the L version, while its broader model copy also mentions 400 litres for M. The title identifies this as L. The water-resistance field says "Not Water Resistant," while promotional text claims resistance to weather, so weather protection is not consistently described. Confirm the selected listing's exact configuration and protection details before relying on either claim.

Customer feedback highlights perceived quality, capacity, sturdiness and easy installation. Some customers say it holds two golf bags and appreciate that it opens on both sides, while ease of use is mixed because some report difficulty closing and locking it. For buyers considering its stated 450-liter capacity and dual-side access, the closing feedback is a practical reason to pay attention to the lock operation. Aggregate ratings lean positive but include a small share of one- and three-star ratings, which do not establish why those ratings were given.
Positive themes
- Customers describe the box as high quality and sturdy.
- Feedback praises capacity, including reports that it fits two golf bags.
- Customers report easy installation and value for the price.
Mixed feedback
- Some customers appreciate dual-side access, while others report that closing and locking can be difficult.
