Impossible to put together correctly

I would not reccomend this shed. It is very difficult to assemble properly. Nothing is pre-assembled, you are given a collection of parts and have to put everything together. It was very challenging even as someone who is mechanically inclined. Things like hinges are very difficult to align properly and they leave it up to you to do, which 99% of people won't be able to get right and I think that should reflect on the quality of their product if most people won't be able to get it right. Another annoying thing, it is not clear from the instructions that the 3 square tube bars are different, if you don't know that you'll install 2 and won't realize the issue until you're 3/4 of the way through the build and will have to tear it back down to fix it.

too small

too small for what it was bought for. It was bought to store my trash bins.

We are sorry this shed doesn't fit your needs. We would recommend getting a horizontal shed for you trash cans.

I bought this last week and can't get it to assemble properly. Not all the wall tabs on the walls lineup properly on the floor to secure it. I'm returning it and building my own out of wood. That's what I get for trying to take the fast and cheap way to do the job.

Great product and stellar customer service!

Purchased this shed and we put it together over a few days. At the end of assembly, we realized we'd discarded the wall hooks. I reached out to Lifetime and told them we mistakenly threw them away and asked if we could purchase more. Lifetime agreed to send us more FOR FREE! This was above and beyond - and a lovely surprise. The shed is great and the manufacturer is even better.

Great for cushion storage

Bought this time store patio furniture cushions and loungers for pool. It's perfect for that. I am a DIY person. There are a few steps which will require a second person. My 14 year old son was able to assist with getting foor down and when hanging doors. Took about 3.5 hours. I had already prepped site with #8, 16 x 16 paver stones and a tamper...that was least expensive option. My wife is happy....happy wife, happy life.

Great Shed

Took a few hours to build but is super solid and high quality materials! The Instructions get a little confusing at times but I watched their YouTube video to get me back on course. Was worth the wait to find one at our local sams club after them being sold out forever.

Kinda Lipstick on a Pig

Great price, nice looking, well packed for shipping. It took FAR longer to assemble than it should have, design WAY overthought. It's a good thing it's “steel reenforced” (with random metal pieces you attach separately) because the hollow plastic warps easily making for a less than snug fit. The hardware is cheap . Like others I upgraded to my own choice of hardware, plus I spent an hour sealing the connecting pieces (and random gaps) with silicone (remember what I said earlier about warping). It took hours to assemble because pieces pop out of alignment, and had to be taken apart and reattached. I would estimate 40% of the “assembly time” was used just trying to open the blister pack hardware. Oh it LOOKS all nice and professionally packaged when you're unboxing, but it is ridiculously hard to open. I broke three exacto blades and one box cutter blade. FORGET using scissors. I would also speculate that 95% of any injuries that occur with assembling this unit are due to the crazy difficult hardware packaging (remember the blades I said that broke). The only cuts I had were from the sharp plastic holding the hardware (once I managed to cut through it).The finished project looks decent, but I wouldn't buy another until the entire assembly process and packaging is redesigned by Lifetime.

Great cabinet

This cabinet is great. I put it together by myself. That was a little bit of a challenge but not impossible. Instructions are very clear and organized. I am not good at putting things together and this was simple. There are a lot of parts but everything you need is supplied including drill bits and screw driver bit. It took a while (4 hours plus) but I was not in a hurry. The cabinet is very sturdy. If you need a cabinet of this size I recommend this one.
