Video and printed directions don’t match. Holes didn’t always match up. Pieces warped while laying in the yard trying to put it together. Definitely need 3 people to put it together correctly. Didn’t finish doors yet, but they definitely need work to close properly. Window is a huge pain to install. It feels like you are going to break it. Overall, It’s a pain to put together. Pay for assembly if you can.

This is my second Lifetime shed, and the first one is as good today, as it was 15+ years ago! I HIGHLY recommend this shed, and any other Lifetime products. They are extremely well made, and the material not only looks good, but it's maintenance free! The instructions are extremely easy to follow, but if you get stuck, they have step-by-step video that is fantastic. I would like to see a 2nd shelf, but the hooks are great. Great product, great price!

I both this shed and assembled it easily enough. No issues getting everything to fit other than some minor alignment issues common to prefabricated mass-produced items of this nature that were easily correctable. My main issue with this shed is that I installed it on a day that ended with 40mph winds in high heat (102º F). The combination was enough to bow the side walls within a few hours. Since the side walls only have thin metal strips every few feet that don't connect to anything structural, the shed has nothing to help it stay rigid against sustained winds. The load of the roof and trusses sitting on the plastic causes the side walls to bow a bit under the pressure. Since I'd also ordered the extreme weather kit (stated to be compatible with "most Lifetime 8 ft. wide sheds" except the "10 ft. x 8 ft. or 15 ft. x 8 ft. Garden Buildings"), we decided to start adding that to the shed kit. The roof truss additions all went on without any issue. Where we started running into issues were with the truss support channels on the side walls. By the time we got to the front doors, it was clear the extreme weather kit wasn't intended for this model of shed. At that point I'd installed over ½ of the kit. I contacted support and they informed me the extreme weather kit DOES NOT work with this shed and will void the shed's warranty if used. I'm very disappointed with Lifetime for making a shed that was not adequately supported to begin with, then promoting the use of the extreme weather kit in wording that doesn't clearly identify which models aren't compatible and failing to say anything about voiding the warranty if used on one of those sheds.

Just bought this last week and assembled it over this past weekend. Very good construction and material. Step by step instructions were good. We thought maybe keeping the languages separate would be good. The part bags could have better identified. Label on bag did not match details within the assembly instructions.

When we visited Sam's, went inside to talk about the sample shed sitting out in front. Dominique at Member Services in Lady Lake was kind enough to help us with the setting up and purchasing the product. We are now setting it up and so far, so good. The process has been relatively easy from starting the purchase, registering it and now hopefully getting it set up. Would have been great to have someone set it up for us.

I bought this shed on March 8, 2025. I can tell you a little bit of rain came in through the upper left corner of the right door, not enough to do any damage. I also had an issue with hanging the shelf using the plastic anchors, they did not hold up, so I ended up using screws to attach the brackets and modifying to brace the shelf brackets.

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.

Sam's Club has the best customer service I have ever seen! I ordered a shed that requires assembly from Sam's that had to be delivered via an over the road freight carrier to Grand Rapids and then a regional carrier delivered it to my house. The over the road carrier was very good at communicating with updates. I sent them explicit instructions including a map with detailed arrows where it was supposed to go at delivery time. There was obviously some sort of break down in communication between them and the regional carrier because it was dropped off at my front door. I live in the city on a corner, and I knew the only way to get it to the driveway and into the garage was to open the two big boxes and carry it piece by piece down my front sidewalk, around the corner, down the sidewalk of the side street halfway down the block and to my driveway. So I called Sam's customer service to inform them they dropped it off in the wrong place which would create a lot of extra work for me, even though I really appreciated the free delivery. The Sam's Club customer service agent was very apologetic and put me on hold for a brief moment and came back on and informed me they would refund a large percentage of the price of my purchase. I thanked the agent for addressing my concerns and for doing more than I expected. I told him that's why I continue to be a Sam's Club member. Thank you Sam's Club for going above and beyond what was expected and for taking care of customers and always making things right! 😃

I have put up a different brand of shed in the past. So I was not concerned about putting it together with my brother. This product when opened was not labeled well or at all. It took several days and lots of frustrations. It is finally together and It looks good and water tight. The product looks of good quality but the instructions and more importantly the parts like screws not being labeled made it so hard. I hope they read this and fix that issue.

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.
