I have purchased from Keter and found the product I bought, a storage box for outside to be very sturdy. It is very suitable for toys, cushions for outside chairs etc. I recommend this product and brand.

I have earlier written this review but it, along with a number of other reviews which I wrote, have vanished. This product is so terrible, I am moved to write it again. This firm calls the material used in the product resin which might fool one onto… Read more

thinking epoxy resin which it certainly is not. The table and chairs are made from molten polypropylene with black mixed into it so it should withstand the sun. However this is not a strong solid and. the first time we used the chairs, a somewhat sturdy friend used the armrest to arise and it snapped off. When I complained, the makers told me that the arm rests are just that, for resting your arms, and not to assist in getting up. In that case, a warning needs to be attached to each chair and a denial of liability included. Apart from being fragile, if left in the sun the table becomes a hilly surface so balancing drinks is also fraught. I attached proof of purchase with my original review, so I hope it is on a file with all the others I sent.

 Follow-up  · I have sworn not to buy any more Keter products and the set of chairs I did buy originally sit unused on the deck, too dangerous to allow people to sit on them. In due course, they will go to the tip.

I have purchased a number of cupboards which are keter brand from Kmart many years ago. I have lived here for 17 years now and they came with us. Wish they would make the garden arches, which are still holding up also. I just recently purchased a new cupboard and it looks similar to my old ones. My husband put it together very easily. They were… Read more

far more cheaper than they used to be, but that is understandable. I love the look of them and they are better than some flimsy ones and look nice and tidy.

Bought keter alfresco garden beds - black x2. One arrived damaged. I took photos and sent it to them, and they said they would forward to the spare parts/support area and I would hear back within 1-2 business days. It's been nearly a week and I've heard back nothing, even though I've followed up. Very expensive items, and I'm not happy. Update - support ended up sending out replacement parts, very well wrapped.

2 stars because the item is pretty good. Deducted 3 stars because of customer service. Going by other reviews it seems a lot of Keter items are delivered with missing parts and getting those parts is difficult and frustrating. I bought a Unity XL outdoor entertainment unit through Maze (a Keter partner) advertised through Amazon. When I… Read more

discovered the missing parts I messaged Maze through Amazon. 3-4 days and no reply. I called Maze who said they can't help and told me to email Keter direct which I did. 3-4 days and no reply. I called Keter who initially said they couldn't find my emails but then eventually did. I explained to the customer service rep that getting these parts was urgent because I had a function coming up and needed them ASAP.

Finally a week later my parts showed up. There was no urgency in getting these to me despite them knowing it was urgent and the warehouse being located in my city. My event came and went over this weekend without the entertainment unit because it was still in pieces in my living room.

Today when I check my Amazon order it says that the delivery date is unavailable so there is a real issue with their ordering and tracking systems.

I won't be buying from Keter again. Buy Australian and not from this mob. Google where the company originated and their history. I wish I had done this before I purchased.

I have x2 keter storage sheds and x2 storage boxes. The quality is amazing. I got the sheds a month before we got hit (in Brisbane) with tennis ball sized hail. Both sheds survived without damage or leaks (and there has been significant heavy rain since). I received the storage boxes today. Communication from Keter was very prompt when aus post had a delivery issue

“Irregular” pricing and advertising on website. On KETER’s website, it says it the Northwood 630L Outdoor Storage Box White is on sale from $499 to $395, but at Bunnings (on special order, not available in store) the non-sale price is $357. Sale? I guess. I mean it is down from 40% more than at Bunnings to 11% more… When I contacted KETER and… Read more

said I’d prefer to buy direct, if they could match Bunnings price of $357, and deliver free as advertised on their website, KETER replied, and I quote: “unfortunately, we cannot price match with that. Our price includes the delivery cost.” Includes the delivery cost? Maybe I’m confused. If the delivery cost is included in the price, then it isn’t free, is it? The consumer is paying. Right? Maybe all this seems less suss to other consumers. You decide. But before you buy direct from KETER, maybe look around first.

Placed order. 2 weeks later chased to find out where it was. 2 days later I get an email saying I will get a refund in 10 days. Not even an apology. I see others had the same experience. Steer clear.....

Although initially unhappy with the product I received, I have to say Shivani from Customer Service did sort everything out and made sure I was happy with the result. Very impressed by her Service and dedication. Well done Keter.

 Follow-up  · I have already changed my review to reflect the latest communications. The initial product (Keter bench) arrived warped and with plastic tags all over it. The warp meant none of the parts fitted together properly and the seat top was so warped gaps were apparent - totally negating the job I wanted it to do of keeping insects out. However when I… Read more

Furniture brittle and faded from the sun within 2 year warranty. Items are guaranteed against sun and UV, once making a claim for the chair failing, [Name Removed] will not honour warranty. The reason is its been used during warranty and dont honour failure of product due to UV & Sun.

They are fine until you need to return something. I bought an outdoor cupboard for $310. The cupboard was missing parts, the shelves did not fit, the door would fall off the hinge when you open it. There are significant gaps in the joins. I was advised that they would only send me the missing parts. I still have not received a refund.

Have a second thought when purchasing from this company directly. They sell items that are out of stock, but available when first ordered. Also tries to upsell items. Cons: Time wasted. Pros: Fully refunded.

I bought the Keter Moby High Cabinet to replace an old wooden one in my garage—what a difference! It’s sturdy, well-built, easy to assemble, and holds a lot. Looks neat and feels much more durable. Very happy with it! Show reply

Went with Keter as they had the right size storage shed for our two rubbish bins and initially able to dry store some fire briquettes. Set up was clear and relatively easy. Good build quality, though expecting a little more for the price. Some minor damage that I did not initial notice. After 2 years the gas struts went from barely working to failed. Raised with Keter and they are providing replacement parts - THANK YOU! Show reply

Looked at many options for a garden shed for our new villa in a retirement village and pleased we decided on Keter Darwin 6x4 for longevity, quality of construction material and especially the weather proof solid flooring. Delivery was prompt and office staff were polite and professional.

We live in a caravan and wanted to create an outdoor kitchen we could still be creative in. The Keter outdoor bench with stainless top is amazing. We have our butane gas stove cooker on top and all our baking tins etc in the storage underneath. We… Read more

also purchased the Keter outdoor bench with has our prep area and storage. The drawers are larger than expected and fit our baking paper, gladwrap etc and the other drawer our herbs and spices fit perfectly. Living on top of a mountain we are open to direct sunlight during the day also get extreme weather at times. We have the outdoor storage boxes also that have stood up to this. I was hesitant being disability pensioner at the price but after a year still in perfect condition no fading etc, best investment and very happy to feel like I have a kitchen

 Follow-up  · My outdoor kitchen is still fantastic. We get some harsh weather living on a hill hard sun during summer and storms it hasn't faded. Its easy for me to move if required. We cook on our butane cooker on it everyday and still looks new other than the usual wearing.

Purchased 2x 20L bins online (17/5) as they were the only ones I could find that may potentially fit in our small cupboard. Received no shipping information so sent a follow-up enquiry a week later (25/5) and was told the bins had been sent (26/5) but there was an AusPost system delay. On 29/5 I got another email saying the delivery was waiting at… Read more

the post office?? It was another week before I could collect them, only to find after all this time that Keter had shipped 2x 30L bins which are utterly useless to me. On 2/6 they said they could email me a return label that I’d need to print, but that I’d have to go to the post office to drop them off, or I could keep the 30L bins. I work full time and have a toddler and this is so inconvenient, not to mention I still don’t know if the smaller bins are actually going to work in our cupboard. I’ve now been waiting two days for a response to my last email and still have no usable kitchen bin…

Poor quality stainless top – Bought the Unity XL bbq entertainment unit with “brushed stainless top”. Less than 2 months old and it’s starting to rust. Has been wiped with a damp cloth and then a dry one once a week to keep clean. Not much of an outdoor entertainment unit if it can’t even last a couple of months. I’d contact them for a replacement top but what’s the point, it… Read more

will just rust the same as the old one. Going to make my own marine grade wood top for it which I know I’ll get years out of.

STAY AWAY from Keter.. very low quality built – I recently bought Keter StrongHold (10x11.5) from Landera Australia. The shed started having cracks in 1 month. The roof failed during the first rainstorm, resulting in cracks and water leakage inside. This product is a waste of money and not recommended at all. I strongly advise avoiding Keter and opting for a better-quality brand like Lifetime. Keter's construction is of very low quality. Please stay away.

Great product and exceptional warranty and replacement – I bought the small keter unity classic outdoor unit. Really happy with it and no problems puting it together. Followed some youtube to help. had a problem with wheels. Emailed keter and the response was so good. Received the replacement within the week. Fanastic.

Do not buy form keter – Do not buy from this company Extremely overpriced for quality of product. I’ve seen better quality at cheap as chips for a quarter of the price. DO NOT BUY!! I got the xl bbq prep table, was $650 and it’s extremely cheap molded plastic and a thin stainless top. Could have got a custom welded bench for cheaper. Photos do not do justice for how dogshit this product is.

Great product wonderful customer service – I just had a very positive experience with Keter customer service. We purchased a Keter 4 seater outdoor setting from Bunnings at least 7 years ago which is now discontinued but it is still perfect fo us today. Over the years a few of the plastic screws had deteriorated but it still holds. I contacted Keters customer service by email with my… Read more

problem they came back to me the next day asking for photos Which I sent. Because it is now discontinued and they use different joiners they told me to leave it with them and they would see what they could do. I just received an email the other day saying that they think they have found something that will probably work and they have sent them in the mail to my address and gave me the tracking number. This service was way beyond my expectations as the seating was way out of warranty. I am blown away by the wonderful service that was given too me by the person I dealt with Shivani and want to recommend Keter products because of that it is very rare today to get such great after service. And the furniture itself has withstood all the elements over the years and we still love it.

Long delivery, poor customer service – This company is so hard to deal with. I purchased 4 black outdoor chairs. First 2 turned up 2 weeks after I made the purchased. Then had to chase the other 2 and once they finally arrived a week later it was the wrong colour. They don't follow up emails and it seems that they aren't really understanding that to make customers happy these days, it's important to engage with them... Product quality is fine and ok to assemble.

Beware... poor product and ZERO customer service – I purchased a Keter Outdoor Utility Cabinet for additional storage in my garage for $299.00. It arrived very quickly which was impressive. That's unfortunately where the good bit ends. I assembled the bottom half of the cabinet with no issues, however there is a design fault that prevents the top half panels from being connected to the bottom -… Read more

i.e. The size of the two side connecting pieces on the base is 1cm bigger than the hole at the base of the top panels. It's impossible to assemble. One of the top panels also has a serious crack, due to the inadequate packaging.

I have sent multiple emails, including pictures, to both email addresses listed on their website and have had no acknowledgement or reply. I started a webchat which was eventually answered and was told my email had been forwarded to a salesperson who would contact me. That was 4 weeks ago. I have heard nothing, despite further follow up emails.

So, I'm left with a half-assembled cabinet that is useless. And Keter have my $300.

Wish I'd read some of the other reviews before purchasing. Hoping this review saves others from this experience!

Customer Service lacking – When looking for some outdoor storage, I noted this brand at Bunnings, did online research (as many ppl do), then went ahead and purchased - a neat outdoor storage unit for wheelie bins. Upon construction I found the supposed hinges missing. The website and manual both clearly state the unit has hinges. The manual also states "If there are missing… Read more

or broken parts, please do not return the product to the store. Please log onto our website, or contact customer service" So I did just that, I made contact through the Contact Us page on their website. A MONTH LATER after hearing nothing, I went back to the website and used the Chat function. Slow replies but at least I had someone responding ... Their first response: "good morning, the store it out prime sold to Bunnings does not come with hinges"

Interesting as the manual and website both state supplied with hinges, but no reference to the Bunnings specific ones not having them. They tell me ... "The manual will as other prime comes with hinges."

Me: So, if it was not sold with hinges, how does someone get hinges for the unit? 9:23 AM hello? 9:31 AM

Keter: I've checked with our salesman and the Bunnings Store it out Prime's definately DONT come with hinges and the hinges each are $40 9:38 AM

Me: OK. so $40 per hinge or for the pair? and how would someone order some? 9:39 AM

Keter: each 9:40 AM

And after that, the line went quiet. No indication of how I might access some of the (over-priced) hinges that are required to fit that specific unit despite asking twice. I get the feeling that customer enquiries are a hassle, and that we should inherently know that obviously they vary their products according to the store that sells them.
