Pick up in person. Do not have shipped!

This isn't a 1 star rating on the shed. On the contrary, I am positive it is a lovely shed. It is a 1 star on Sam's Club and their shipping company and various customer representatives. I ordered this shed. The Friday prior to Easter my card was charged. This was March 29th. Delivery date was given as April 15th. April 1st I received a text the shed was delivered. It was not. Next day, April 2nd, another tracking said it was delivered. I called Sam's Club. SO many runarounds and practically called a liar. Another tracking # said I ordered SEVEN sheds, a round table and a basketball hoop. All of these items were delivered to Ohio. I live in PA. Sam's still did not believe me. Ridiculous all around. Canceled the order after more runaround. Shame on Sam's Club!

Impressive yard shed

I have been building home projects for 41 years, and this was the simplest project to assemble. The shed material was impressively tough (walls, doors, roof), with the only drawback being the thin plastic flooring (concern with potential dropping of yard and carpentry tools. Past sheds were made of wood and incurred more financial costs and degraded over time (requiring painting and shingling).

Almost done

Instructions are very vague one line sentences. There are a lot of instructions you can add one sentence or two to make things easier. Assembly is not easy, if I wasn't 90 % done I would pay to get this assembled. Currently have two of the six roof panels installed and we are struggling to get the other four panels on. I called the Lifetime help center and their guidance was "the roof assembly is hard", they really didn't give us any helpful hints. This is one area they could make improvements to make assembly easier. There are bags of screws with 40 of one type screw and four of another type in the same bag! This is hard enough to assemble without this type of challenge. I' m stressed out that I will not get these roof panels to fit and I'll have to dis assemble the shed. .

Sturdy, attractive and affordable

My husband and I were able to put this together in a day's work. The directions were easy to follow and the building and floor seem sturdy and well put together. We looked at several options available to us and chose this one because of the material, cost and looks. We are happy with it and would recommend it!

Just ok

It was ok for the price. It took my husband and I 1 day and 2 afternoons (13 hours) to put this thing together. This is our 2nd time putting something like this together. The last one we got was from Lowe’s and it was a lot more sturdy and easier to put together. This one feels cheaply made but we will see how it holds up. The instructions were straight forward and not overly complicated. Overall I think it should last.

Take something for stress before assembly!

On assembly, parts didn’t line up correctly. Every step was difficult. Most of the shed seems cheaply made with less than steller materials. When finished, the right door did not line up and wouldn't shut. After hours of frustration i went home and watched a you tube video from the manufacturer. It seems this is a common problem and is solved by shimming the floor upon completion. Mine was put together on a level concrete patio and still required a lot of shims on one corner to make the door close. When the company makes a video on how to correct a common issue you know its a built in issue. If it were a cheap plastic shed, i guess it would be at least easier to swallow. This shed, however, was not cheap. Turned out to be a Thousand Dollar pain in my side!

We apologize about the frustration with parts not lining up correctly and the difficulty you encountered. Regarding the issue with the right door not aligning properly, because the shed is made of plastic it does require a perfectly level foundation. Even a slight amount of unevenness can affect the alignment of the doors. We do acknowledge that this is a common issue that some customers encounter. Shimming the shed is the most effective fix for this. That's why we created the video as a resource to assist in resolving this specific problem. We receive feedback from many customers and use that information to create helpful resources like the video to address common assembly issues. If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to us at reviews@lifetime.com.

Sturdy when completed

Great building for the money, easy to build it just takes a little time to assemble, check to make sure you have all parts bags and hardware before you start building read the instructions before starting, I built it myself without any help in about 8hrs. Build a 4x4 frame and use treated lumber and plywood for the floor or a concrete pad.

Great shed!

This shed is terrific! It was pretty easy to build just by following the instruction manual carefully (look at the illustrations closely so you get all the correct hardware and have pieces turned in the correct direction). Best to have two people, so 1 can hold things together while the other one attaches pieces. Can be built in one day. Held up well through a big summer thunderstorm, stayed dry inside. Definitely recommend this shed!

The video and manual TOGETHER really helpful

I love this shed! We used 4x4 and gravel rocks for the foundation. When putting together, I recommend using both Manuel and you tube instructions Veru helpful. Make sure you have all hardware bags first before putting together . ******important****Verify letters on bags to correspond with panels .. can get confusing at times. Happy building !
