Great shed!

I purchased this for an Airbnb which needed bike storage. It’s awesome. Assembly was very easy. Great product.

Quality shed, but instructions need improvement

We bought this to store our bikes outside so they aren’t taking up valuable space in the garage. Overall it met our needs. The built quality is solid, but the assembly instructions could use some improvement, especially the diagrams. I would also recommend organizing and labeling the hardware better. But after a couple of hours, we got it built and are happy with the results.

Although the product looks presentable and will do the job of securing the trash cans, the assembly is horrible. The instructions are not provided. The instructions provided for the product did not match what was purchased . It is extremely hard to put this together and nothing aligns when it comes to provided parts. If you complete one side and use all the screws that you need to use, the other side is completely off and you cannot align it . I am very disappointed with this product and with Walmart and I will not be purchasing anything similar anytime soon.

good storage shed lots of room

Box and contents came in good shape. Went together pretty well but the assembly instructions could have been a little more clear. Yes it will take at least 2 people to put this together

Gas struts do NOT support lid

This is my second shed install, this one seemed a little more complicated and a second person makes it much easier. Items inside stay dry. Unfortunately the gas struts only supported the for the first day, now the lid closes before you can even open the lower door. Big disappointment for a shed in this price bracket.

Trash Can Shed

Looks good wasn’t too bad to assemble. However the gas shocks are not strong enough to lift the lid. A lot of the competition has three shocks on the lid and some of the older versions did too. This is a problem for me.

Couldn't Take the Heat

I placed this on a partially shaded concrete slab last spring. After 45 days of 100 + degree temps, the shed door began to buckle and warp causing the door hinges to detach from walls and lid latch. The soft close lid has also fails to stay open making entry into the rear section very difficult. Will be replacing with a metal shed.

Fine product, awful support and hardware

It's a plastic box that will keep rain off your stuff, assuming you can ever get it together. The machining on the metal parts is poor, so screws don't fit quite right. Not a big deal, since they're self- tapping, right? Well, if you don't get the angle of the screw exact, it will strip going in to metal. The threading on the bolts is soft, so if you get a nut cross-threaded, it's going to mangle, meaning if you have to do any reversing, you'll have to buy a new bolt. You will end up reversing, too. The English directions were written by an engineer who, I'm assuming, doesn't speak English as a first language. The diagrams do an excellent job of showing which way to turn screws, but where pieces attach is an exercise in guesswork, particularly for the parts of assembly without pre-drilled holes. The hardware is labeled in the diagram, but there's no indication on the bags that they contain EE nuts or whatever. It's also not reasonable to call this a shed or a deck box. I'm not pulling my lawn mower in or out through the top, which makes the quiet close hinges completely pointless, other than to make the hinge assembly complicated enough for me to throw it on the ground and walk away. It might be the greatest plastic box to throw stuff in ever, but it looks unlikely that I'll ever know at this point. If I wanted to pay 400 dollars for a heap of frustration, I'd just go to the emergency room.

Durability??

On 2nd day, the top right hinge popped off from side panel. The way it is designed is like a c-clamp. Will have to unload some boxes to see if the tension can be adjusted to hold more securely.

Bad quality plastic -doesn't withstand summer heat

Friend of mine bought this last year and during the summer's hot weather every wall & the lid got badly deformed (warped); For the ugliness of this plastic and its high price, you just add the horrible durability factor and it is not worth not buying but not worth having (even if it is free). From what I saw, this is a 100% AVOID !
