Makes great chicken coop

I like that the instructions were divided by chapters and that the parts were individually bagged for that particular chapter. The video certainly cleared up some things while we put it together.

I perchased this while on sale for 699.00. It was a good buy compared to others. If it is wasn't on sale I wouldn't have puchased it. The Install was easy, but they could have labeled the pieces with sticky's. I had a hard time defining which panels went in the corner. Two issues I had was after sliding the bottom of the corner panels into the floor slots it was pain to snap the other in into the flooring. I also recommend bolting the floor down in two places before your start. The other problem I had was alignment with the doors. After the first day I installed the first section of the roof and stopped to complete the job tomorrow. At that point my doors were aligned perfectly. Next day I installed the remained two sections of the roof and now the right door is off by 3/4" and left door is off. I had to shim the right door for both doors to adjust properly. I might go back and loosen all the roof screws and see if it falls back in line. You will need the video and instructions for this install. There is some vaqueness in both instructions. However, you can get this done using both at the same time. I gave it three stars for personal reason that I have a flat leveled deck but I still had to shim the door and I do not like the way that looks. But I am not taking it back and it fits the corner yard perfectly. Also, it is 8' wide and 7.5' deep. I couldn't find that info anywhere. Can't say how it would hold up in high wind, but I bolted it all down on the floor.

I purchased this storage shed to get all of my lawn equipment out of my garage. This shed is large enough to fit my riding mower with pull behind cart, push mower, garden tiller, weed eater, 8 foot stepladder, 100’ hose with cart, pressure washer, fertilizer spreader, shovels and rakes, and a 4’ shelving unit. I built the platform for this shed out of wood, and the cost was around $200. The assembly instructions are excellent. The instructions suggest 3 people are needed for assembly, but I was able to complete it by myself in about 2 days, including constructing the platform. I placed my shed in a corner area of my house, and it fits and looks great there. Keep in mind that in addition to the floor dimensions, the roof extends out about another 2” on each side. It can be a little difficult to get some of the roof panels to line up properly, but with a little patience it should go together properly.

This is a very difficult to put it together, the Video or the Instruction showing is misleading and most of Materials will not fit as describe or shown inside the Video, DO NOT BUY don't waste your money and no way you can return it to sams club because of the weights & once you open.

Instructions are useless as socks on a rooster. 2 or 3 steps just stopped right in the middle. I thought pages were missing but they weren't. Had to watch the videos to see what parts to use next. Some important details were missing such as metal support orientation on the Gables. Several parts bags were mislabeled. 2 of the roof panels were slightly different than the other 4 with no explanation in the manual but they all had the same 3 letter identifier. I got it assembled in about 7 hours by myself. I've done several of the backyard discovery outdoor playsets and their Instructions are 10x more clear on assembly. The shed itself is a great product but u might as well throw the Instructions in the burn pile with the boxes and watch the included videos for assembly. Seems durable so far. Roof was a little tricky to line up by myself but theres more than one way to skin a cat.

Shed was unfortunately returned. Floor never went together properly. Seemed like one section curved. No big deal, I made it work. I had a level base, everything squared up until the roof went on. Atter that, the doors never lined up and wouldn't close properly, even with shims. I wanted to like this shed, it was the perfect size, but I just couldn't make it work.

Garbage! Bought this 9-11-23 and contractor tried to install on 9-12. The shed was warped so the roof did not go on correctly. The 2 back panels are totally out of shape and did not go together. There is a big gap due to this so this shed is worthless. I reached out to their customer service and they want to know who installed this ? I had a licensed and insured contractor put this together. This site dies not allow me to add photos. DO NOT BUY!

I have a 7'x7' Craftsman plastic shed bought years ago for Halloween decoration storage (we go big every year). I needed something just a little larger to go next to it for Christmas decoration storage (we go even bigger every year). The Craftsman, while not a total breeze, WAS a total breeze compared to this Lifetime shed. Same wood foundation built as before, almost the same size shed, the difference is one brand was far & away easier to assemble. I'm writing this review, on day 2, as I take a break because I'm almost done but can't get the triangular roof pieces to align properly. This was a difficult build throughout, and while I don't assemble sheds for a living, this is not my 1st time. A very regrettable purchase...if only I had a time machine, I'd never have bought it.

As everyone has noted, the instructions are horrible and when I went to the YouTube for a segment, I found it glossed over the question I had and wasn't very helpful either. I'm not a big fan of running YouTube over and over to build a shed. If you have constructed things in the past and can think logically, it will come together for you if you follow the horrible instructions. The shelf is laughable. Granted I'm in Phoenix, but the plastic shelf drooped within 24 hours and the "support bars" are hardly supportable. The illogical insert screw devices to hold the shelf up are laughable. They fell out after the first day. Fortunately, I didn't buy the shed for the shelf! All and all, its a good shed and will work and the parts for the most part with the exception of the shelf, are fairly precise. I've seen worse. A little lesser quality than a nearly identical shed from Lifetime that I bought 6 years ago, but it will work.
