It really last a lifetime

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

the good, the bad, and the ugly

First let me state, this review isn't going to determine anything about the durability of the shed, as I have just finished completion yesterday - but so far, so good. The ugly - the directions and packaging are horrific!!!! My shed arrived in 4 LARGE boxes - and none were clearly marked stating which box contained the directions. I had to un pack all the boxes until I finally found the directions. Once I found them - - they weren't really clearly written - but hey maybe it's just me - the parts are marked pretty well -- - however the hardware had little to no identification - so..... it's a little tricky to put the two together. my recommendation to the company - - pack your boxes with the parts and hardware that go together. Clearly mark a box that has the instructions. Clearly mark all hardware packaging My overall review would have been better - but I'm still miffed by the lack of clear directions and marked hardware. I thought about adding a photo - or video - however all mine have obscene remarks or jesters as I was extremely frustrated IF you have little to no talent as a DIYer or handyman - - Don't but this shed

Pretty slick design

Made in USA! As of today, my shed is 90% assembled. Not too physically difficult to put together but definitely need two people. I suggest using the assembly manual as a reference and watching videos on YT from people who have assembled them. It’s critical that the base is level and solid. I really love the look of my shed. No shingles and no paint is a plus.

Well built sturdy priduct

Instructions should be clearer with better pictures & some things are not specific in the pictures. It’s together & will enjoy for many years! Compliments from the neighbors & one is seriously considering getting one! Highly recommend! Oh! Video on YouTube is old! Not helpful!

Great Shed

I Did Buy This Shed Awhile Ago Really Nice Takes Time To Put Together But Worth It In The End Also You Need 2 People To Do The Job You Also Need A Floor To Build It On It Does Come With A Floor I Used Wood And Make Sure Its Level The Manuel Is Really Simple To Follow For Putting It Together

so much for that 65mph rating

follow up to review previously left . 25-30 mph winds here on Saturday 16 FEB in Springfield MO and she is now in pieces. Screws seem very loose after screwing into plastic, nothing seems to line up correctly. Instructions are terrible. I have very serious concerns about this standing up to any kind of wind past 20mph. Bought this because of the good reviews but for the life of me I can't see why it has good reviews. For $2700 I expected this thing to be built like a tank.

17.5x8

Built the 17.5x8, one person, so the key, is 3 fold. Go thru and make sure your wood or cement floor is level, I am screaming this as this is so important! 2, watch the videos offered by lifetime as much as you can b4 any assembly! 3 Preassemble as much as possible prior to even starting. Pray. If you don’t pray. Start. It will take you 3x more time than you think. The shed is a very good product but I re-engineered several, i.e. reinforcements, added electrical, increased sq. footage by 50%.
