little Help

I like the shed a lot, but feel I had little help finding someone to put it together. The instructions need to be rewritten and easier to understand.

Missing parts Order

Stopped dead in our tracks when we found we were missing part DSQ and 20 screws DTK. No problem getting parts when I called but will take about 5 days to get the parts. Trying to inventory all parts before starting May b a good thing but prepare to take several hours to do so. There are a lot of boxes and bags that are not all well labeled. Make sure you have three people when doing the wall build, especially if ther is a breeze. Make sure doors get put up AFTER the complete wall build. Also, when doing the wall build, only put in top and bottom screws on each panel to start. You may need to take a whole side down and redo install when you get to last corner piece and find it is too long because the sections were not pounded together tightly enough.

Now what?

I bought the Lifetime 20' x 8' American made shed, applied for a permit here in South Daytona to put it up. The city denied my permit due to it not meeting a Florida Building Code for structures to meet a 130 mph design for this area. My friend bought one, too, and was planning on putting it up in his new house in Port Orange. Not sure what I can do now.

Lifetime Sheds are the BEST!!!

I already trust Sam's Club because of the quality, customer service and the way they back up vendor products. And now I can say that I love Lifetime products! Prior to buying this larger shed, we already owned 2 Suncast sheds and I tried to get a replacement part...like pulling teeth! Didn't have not one pushback from Lifetime when I needed to replace a part damaged in shipping. Lifetime appreciates and trusts their clients and coupled with how Sam's Club treats their customers, you can't go wrong with this pairing!

Great so far!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Started opening the cartons to discover a defective wall panel. Talked to customer support who got back to us in a timely manner. Zachary and another sales rep spoke to us and we received the replacement panel in less than 4 days. While waiting have been assembling what I can and have been following the manual by the letter. Great instructions and easy to navigate as long as you take it step by step. I feel we are getting a quality shed from a reputable company who stands by their products with a great support/sales rep team.

Exactly what I expected!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We needed more space. We consider wood prefab, and it's still kind of a toss up! by time you build wood foundation or pour concrete. prefab wood comes with that and makes is easier to relocate if you want to take the shed with you. We had concrete poured and i dont know if i'd build one this big again! I'd say it takes good 13-18 hours to build. I'd suggest download app Bilt and type in the model number, also watch few install videos on youtube. We messed up the floor lay down and put up back walls till we realize why the door holes weren't lining up. Also short doors poles for side door, long poles for the end doors! We messed up the doors, and not feasible to disassemble the other doors just for one pole, Customer service was very nice and easy to work with like other comments. My John Deer 42” with bagger fits in the end door and has plenty of room. As I mentioned very time consuming, and need to understand how it's assembled first. allow 12-18 hours, most of work can be done by one person, but some items due require 2 people. Seems like a great product, and won't require any maintenance. Check out the BILT app. I still feel as though worth the money saved vs other options.

Great Shed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are very happy with this shed. The only issue we had when putting it together was the dormer pieces that go above the side door were very tight. Other than that no real issues. Make sure you plan ahead and read the instructions all the way through first before starting. You will not get this shed built in an afternoon either. We had several hours in sorting the pieces out and building the trusses and everything else we could ahead of time.

Nice looking outbuilding/shed

Bought this for the Worden as a "she" shed to store her outdoor furniture etc in. I would recommend you also purchase the installation with it as it took several swear words before I was able to get this assembled. It took me all of four whole days and part of a fifth to install the supports for the roof after it was put up. If you assemble it yourself, do yourself a favor and ignore the number on the four boxes it was delivered in and just go ahead and unpack all of them and sort everything out. If I would have known what it entailed to assemble, I would have just bought materials and stick built a shed on my own, as it would have been easier. I will say though that this should hold up a long time with very little maintenance with the plastic construction. It blends in well with our landscaping so the Worden is happy with it. Happy wife, happy life!

20 x 8 foot storage shed

shed came in 4 very heavy 9 x 3 x 1 ft boxes. delivered by very large truck with only the driver. you better have help to unload the truck as the driver will only offer a limited assistance. having said that you need to unload all of the boxes and stack the parts in like piles. it is very important to have the base the shed will sit on very level. Watch the YouTube videos and read the directions this more than once. you will need two or more persons to erect the shed. it took four of us 10 hours. lots of screws. Power screwdriver is a tremendous help. screws and other fasteners come in packages that are not marked as the instructions require. this is a real mess to figure out. once built the shed is very sturdy and looks exactly like the picture. only had it up for about a month so don't know how long it will last.
