Nice shed!

The shed came like a puzzle you need lots of patience. The booklet is not very clear so I was going back and forth with the video. It's time consuming but looks good at the end. I feel like it would be helpful if the pieces were actually labeled most of the pieces were not labeled. I am assuming since it's plastic some things were not very aligned and didn't fit as expected. Overall I think it was good I got it on sale so I was happy about that.

Easy Assembly, sturdy, and

Follow the instructions! No, the instructions don't seem logical since you're putting things together in what appears to be an illogical order, but it all comes together. This is definitely a two-person job. An electric drill with a screwdriver bit is a huge time saver, as are sawhorses for assembling the doors and gables. Love that there was a shelf and wall hooks included. The shed is spacious, the doors were easy to align, and it looks good in the yard.

Great size. Easy to assemble.

Great size for the price. Easy to assemble mostly by one person. You just have to be careful with how much pressure you put on the screws as to not strip the plastic. Because everything you're screwing into is plastic. If you're going to use a drill start at a low setting and work you're way up to a comfortable setting that doesn't have too much torque. Other than that, I love it. Made a lot of space in my garage now.

Good but issues

I bought this shed a few months ago but just got it installed and put together during the installation. We found that the installation instructions did not have the placement for the window. The window was placed in an area where we can no longer use the shelf provided. There was also some screws that were missing. But we managed to find others that worked. Reading given is more about the installation and placement of everything with missing parts rather than the actual product.Itself

Good Shed - Instructions... Not so much!

I'm glad there are video help QR codes. The gable end instructions are horrible. The instructions show the rear first when the front is the one that is more complicated and requires a specific header bar and in a specific location. Watch the video and DO NOT mess this up or you'll be ordering new Gables because the screws cannot be removed without possibly damaging the holes. The other issue.... the instructions DO NOT say where to put the bar to line up with the door latch. I had to drill a hole in the header to line up with the latch. Everything else went OK.

Don’t buy it if you live where it might rain

This shed finally went on sale we paid $699 what a bargain right? compared to the thousand dollar price tag they had a year ago when we almost bought it then! Let me tell you I don’t know where the good reviews come from because this thing is junk. I think the people that are leaving their reviews are ones that haven’t had it out in the rain yet the roof leaks badly and so does the little window on the side wall. The materials are flimsy bad, on a hot day in Sacramento California the walls warp then when it cools down, it does go back to its shape, but the plastic material that it’s made from is so thin and flimsy some spots are see-through when the sun hits it that’s how thin it is on the seems. And the floor is a total joke my step ladder and kickstand from my mountain bike put divots in the floor. I bought this to protect my stuff from the elements. It might as well not have a roof on it. That’s how bad it leaks and yes, it was put together correctly followed all the directions watched all the videos and if you have any idea how to put stuff together. It wasn’t that hard as some people might’ve stated, but I repeat if you’re looking to protect your stuff this isn’t the shed for you. I had a similar shed in the old house about ten years ago don’t remember the brand but it was heavy duty and didn’t leak one drop so I had high hopes for this one, I’d love to return it but that means tearing it down and delivering it 🥺

Tedious project

Honestly if I had known how many parts and screws came in this kit and also that a platform needed to be built I wouldn't have made this purchase. The shed wasnt the color advertised so I called in a complaint and they took $150 dollars off. Coupled with the original $200 discount I ended up paying $550 for the shed plus lumber costs and nails to build the platform. I wouldnt recommend this shed.

Great Value

We bought the shed as a chicken coop for our 13 hens. It was an easy set up and has been the perfect coop for our girls. The instructions to put it together were easy to understand and it went together with mostly just my husband doing it by himself

Solid product

This is a quality product. It took one day to assemble the shed, not including building the base the day before. Didnt realize we had to build a platform, thought we could place it on base of gravel and sand but that wasn’t the recommendation. Still an overall an easy assemble. As a 67 year-old woman I put on a couple of the roof panels by myself while waiting for my son to come back to help. That should give you an idea of how easy the instructions are annd the video instructions were top notch. Holes all lined up which also says something about the qualityz

Very Good Shed

This is a great shed. It did require two of us to put together and several hours, but once it was together, it has worked out amazingly. It appears to be water tight and just what I needed for a small barn for some of my smaller animals. You definitely have to have a LEVEL FLAT surface to assemble it on or it will be next to impossible to get it together correctly. Overall, this has been a great purchase at a great price.
