Big Boxes

The install instruction is not very clear for installing the shed. It took me almost a whole day to install by myself. I also liked online pickup, you need to have a van (removed second and third rows seats) or truck to pick it up because two boxes are big (8' long x 3' wide x 1' high).

Lifetime 8'x 7.5' Outdoor Storage Shed

We purchased Lifetime 8'x7.5' from Sam's Club. I'm 72 and my wife is 71 yrs. old. The 2 of us, from start to finish, put it together in 6 hrs. While watching a couple of You Tube videos, we would follow along with the directions, before we started. Everything went smooth, till we started putting the roof panels on. When trying to line up the panel, so the tit fit into the slot, on the truss was the hard part. I found using a welding vise grip was the ultimate saver. Just align the tit over the truss, put a block of wood on top of the roof panel and use the clamp to press it into place. Just do your homework before you start and you'll be so happy with your new shed.

5 Hour Assembly with 4 People; Videos Helpful

Excellent Product. Took 5 hours to assemble with 4 people. Many portions can be split up into groups and worked on simultaneously. For example, while two people work on the left door, the other two people can work on the right. WATCH THE VIDEOS (links in instruction manual). COMES IN 2 BOXES. Be sure to get BOTH boxes and verify they are the correct ones. It would be helpful if the parts themselves were all labeled. Some are and some are not. But the packaging is labeled and we did not have a problem. Goes together nicely if you follow the instructions and have a level foundation. Also, note that the shed does come with a floor, but not foundation. We used cinder block and gravel and it turned out nicely.

Lifetime? shed

Be prepared to spend a tremendous amount of time assembling. Bags are not marked well, instructions are so so. We had to review both the book AND the video. Also, the model displayed in the store seems to be an older model and is sturdier than what we got, especially the base. I would not buy again.

I would not do this again

I am reviewing the assembly process only. The shed is too new to say anything about how it will last. But assembly on a level platform outside in 70-80° sunny weather had to deal with corner wall panels that did Not snap in anywhere near as easily as in the video. Paper instructions that are difficult to follow. And a redesigned shelf attachment bracket that will not stay in the wall and a that was too short to fit

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.

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!

Happy we purchased

We looked at the video watched how they placed the screws and bolts made sure we placed them in the same direction which is key to correct installation. As long as you do this you will not have a problem with installing your storage unit. We are more than satisfied. We had very heavy wind and rain and shed is dry and standing strong.

Perfect Shed for my needs

I'm real happy with the quality of the shed It's well made,Solid and strong.I had the shed installed by the service company hired by SamsClub.A strong young man came out and had it put together in a couple of hours! He did a great job!I'm glad I had it installed I'm going on 70 and it was 104 the day it was installed,best money I ever spent! The company that installed the shed is a class act! You can trust them. I had a great experience ordering the shed on line,picking up the shed from my local Sam's Club curbside pick up.And hiring the company to install the Shed for Sam's club. It all worked out like clockwork! Lifetime makes a good shed!
