Outdoor Storage Box Works Hard. Doubles as Food Service Bar While Organizing Pool, Patio, and Deck Accessories.

Hopkinton, MA (PRWEB) June 5, 2004 -- No more shuffling patio cushions, toys, and deck clutter. Brookbend Outdoor Furnitures multi-purpose Storage Buffet Box affords a beautifully efficient solution that caters to guests in style. The key is its innovative top lid, which is designed to break into independent pieces. The lid sections move out and create up to three serving pods for food, while plastic buckets (included, of course) drop into the frame and become generous chilling stages for drinks, raw bar, or ice cream sundae parties. If desired, two sections can lift out and the middle lid section can slide into any position, forming a mixed hot/cold serving area. Ample storage for cushions or off-season equipment is located under the plastic buckets, and the lids can be closed to keep the box watertight.

Brookbend company owner Paul Marcus and his designer, a former Ethan Allen executive, were struck with the idea for a multi-purpose product while planning a cushion storage solution. The Storage Buffet Box is a logical addition to Brookbends innovative line of beautifully designed outdoor furniture, which sells nation-wide by mail order.

Marcus notes that conventional outdoor storage boxes are limited in use, and range from $250 to $400 for boxes made with low-grade knotty cedar to $800 to $3000 for teak. Typical cedar boxes lack upscale design and engineering, while expensive teak is beyond the reach of many people. Brookbends product offering bridges that gap, combining fine-furniture styling and construction with high-grade smooth-grained cedar.

The strikingly executed Storage Buffet Box fuses Scandinavian and Asian styling and combines subtly raised lid panels and ship-lapped slats. Its mahogany hinges merge luxury and good sense-unlike metal hinges, they will not become loose over time. The three-part lid is wisely designed for lightweight ease of use.

Brookbend's Storage Buffet Box is manufactured of premium knot-free western red cedar. The Storage Buffet Box sells for $599 in the month of May unstained or $649 stained with a teak color, and a Tyvek tm cover is also available.
