missing parts and disappointed

I Bought this shed almost two months ago. We buy everything we can at Sams. I could have bought one in town and had it delivered and installed the same day. The shed arrived and we hired the service Sams recommends to put it together. Once the installer showed up we found that the company did not include any of the hardware to assemble the shed. The installer called the company to have the parts shipped and was told they are on backorder. Now we will be waiting at least another three weeks. This is totally unacceptable. Would not recommend Lifetime products to anyone. Sam's should be aware too.

Not great protection

I purchased this, because I thought "Hey with this material it will be very low maintenance. No painting no rotting." It took me quite awhile to assemble as I am disabled. My daughter helped as best she could. After it was assembled I put my lawnmower and all my other tools in it along with some stuff from the house to make room. Bad mistake! After a good rain there was water inside. Anything that was stored under the skylight was almost soaked.That is a lot of money to spend on something you thought would protect your stuff.I could have bought an assembled storage shed for that price. I do not recommend this building for anything you care about and want to protect from the elements.My lawnmower was just as well off covered with a mower cover in my back yard as it was for the last 2 years. The irony is I still have to cover it. It was a costly mistake on my part.

Not Happy

Leaks are all around the perimeter of the shed. The holes where the wall panels slide into place have gaps where rain water pours in. The holes around the doors are all wide open and rain pours in. Not sure why you designed the floor with so many holes especially along the door openings. I put flashing all around the outside, 2 lines of caulk around the perimeter outside. Also filled the numerous holes where the doors are with flex rubber but the rain keeps pouring in. The windows on the doors leak as well. Not sure why you did not provide tape to seal like there is on the skylights. When the doors are open and the floor is exposed to the sun, the floor warps like crazy and has now pulled apart along two floor panels. Most all the screws that attach the middle roof skylights have stripped so there is not much holding them into place. I really wish I had spent more money and put a wooden shed in. I have purchased many Lifetime products over the years and have always been impressed with the quality. This shed however has been a complete let down.

This is my second Lifetime shed and really last a lifetime. Fairly easy to assemble but it did require 2 people.
