We made an outside laundry room!

I researched several items before making this purchase. We are building a new home & living in our RV on our build site for the next several months. I came up with a unique way to make life easier. This product couldn't have been better. I love the versatility & durability of this horizontal shed. Once finished housing my outside washer & dryer, I will use it for outside storage of gardening items:)

Good size shed

I purchased this to store my outdoor power tools. The box arrived from a shopping freight company in one big box. It took me approximately 5 hours to assemble by myself. The instructions were very thorough and easy to follow. The shed appears sturdy and well made. Time will see how well it holds up to the elements.

Sturdy, gorgeous and worth every penny.

We purchased 2 of these outfoor sheds from Sam's Club a few years ago. They are perfect for our gated community because they don't show above our fence line. The sheds are very durable, and they have hydraulic lifts incorporated on either side of the lid to make it easy to open. The front closure has holes for a heavy duty lock to protect your items inside. One shed holds home improvement tools and supplies. The other holds folding tables and chairs for special holidays. I was disheartened when Sam's Club stopped offering the shed. Lo and behold, as I was doing my usual grocery shopping at Sam's Club the other day, I saw my favorite outdoor shed again! I bought it using the online app snd selected Curbside Pickup. It was so easy! I paid a handyman to assemble it in our backyard. We use it to store our bikes. It is an even nicer color than our other sheds. Get your shed before it's gone for the season!!

Nice Shed. Poor Lid Design. The Good & The Bad.

Summary Review- The Good: Packaging, Shipping Partner, Instructions with QR-Code Video, Materials, Fastener Packaging, Lifetime Customer Service, 10-Year Warranty. The Bad: Split-Lid/Cover, Description, Doors, Metal Fasteners into Plastic. Detailed Review - Purchased this for a snowblower, and winter supplies. Built a paver platform for this shed, as it needs to be situated on a flat surface. As stated in “The Good” above, the item arrived and I was pleased with how Lifetime provides video instructions using their supplied QR-code. I have a vocational background, and this took me (one person) about 3.5 hrs. to construct, working carefully. Lifetime uses fasteners into plastic walls, lids & doors, so I suggest making each screw-into-plastic count, without over-tightening. You don’t want to strip these. It rained substantially the day after assembly, and unfortunately we received a good amount of water inside the shed wall and floor. A closer look showed water penetrated the “split lid.” (Lifetime uses two separate panels instead of one, that you must screw together at a center seam. I suspect using two panels instead of one has to do with packaging.) A chat session with Lifetime Customer Support concluded with Lifetime shipping a new lid (pending). Lifetime pointed out that this shed is not water-proof, rather it is water-resistant, and some water is to be expected. Understandable, as they do describe it as “weather resistant,” not weather proof. However, Lifetime’s description of this shed indicate it’s able to accommodate tools, lawn equipment, bikes [items that can “easily” rust] as well as trash bins. Lifetime Customer Support suggested using a bead of silicone caulking at the split-joint on the lid to hopefully prevent future water penetration. I will try this on the replacement lid, but want others to be aware of this should they decide to store anything delicate within. The other small issue is the doors. They are flimsy, and although they can be secured to the hasp on the lid, the doors do not lock solid at the floor. There is a plastic pin, that glides over a hole in the floor. They merely close, and can easily be pulled out. Lastly is the lid when extended & fully open. It uses struts which is great, but if you are short, this can be difficult to pull down. I suggest adding a pull-down cord of some type, especially if you have small children opening and closing this shed. We used Paracord for it durability. All in all, a nice shed. Just be certain to assemble on a flat surface and go easy on the fasteners. Just don’t expect the shed to be water-proof and well-secured, it’s not. Hope this review helps.

Can't say reviews I read prior to purchase...

I am very satisfied with the shed. The only thing that kept it from 5 stars is it leaks thru the lid during a rain. Had i known that we would have run a bead of silicone down the seam while putting it together. The items I want to store in it I don't want getting wet. My son put it together following the enclosed directions. I had to hold things together a couple of times but it wasn't a problem. Everything fit as it was supposed to and all parts were well identified and present. A variable speed drill/screwdriver is really necessary for the amount of screws you are working with.

Good to very good but improvement needed

Very solid shed. Assembly was fairly easy (did so alone though a second person would be handy a a few points). Biggest issues - the instructions and images are not very good about 2/3rds of the way through. The instructions often mention holes - most are not there - just indents. The upper frame is one point - if you use the drilled holes you will not touch the back panels by about 6 inches. Lid instructions not great. Some steps could easily have been done in manufacturing. Fix these issues and it would be a 5 star.

Nice shed, but had our issues

Nice shed, but we had our issues. One seam was cracked. We ended up having to buy more screws. We followed it and the YouTube video to a T. Wasn’t that hard to put together, but you really need two people for the whole process. The video said there was two steps that needed two people.

Problems with Assembly

We ended up returning the shed after struggling to assemble it for two days. We got about 4 panels assembled with no problems and then none of the tabs would go into the slots (off by about 3/8"). We took it apart and started over twice, but hit the same brick wall at panel #5. I truly do not believe it was an error on our part. We had watched the Assembly video and felt confident that we had all of the correct parts. It looked like it was going to be a nice sturdy shed and we're disappointed that we got a "lemon". Very much appreciated being able to take advantage of Sam's return policy.

An Absolute Nightmare

An Absolute Nightmare. Save Your Sanity and Avoid!** Do yourself a massive favor and steer completely clear of this garbage. You are dumped with a box of over 100 completely loose, unlabeled parts. The manufacturer couldn't even be bothered to put a single tiny sticker on the pieces to help you identify them. To make matters worse, the instruction manual is a complicated, useless joke of a guide. Unless you want to waste a lifetime trying to solve a miserable, disorganized puzzle with no directions, do not buy this. It is a total waste of time, energy, and money.

Takes 5 hours to put together! Takes 2 people!

Horrible instructions! There also wasn't enough screws to put this together. Instructions don't even show the right holes in the shed. Had to drill additional hole. What a mess. Instructions might have been for an older model? Crazy and so frustrating.
