There were four of us working on this shed and it didn't take as long as we expected, about 3 hours. Overall, pretty straightforward except a few steps we got confused. However, the video from YouTube they recommend helped clarify things. We had a few plastic pieces lift when installing the hinges and, because of this, we need to lift that door when shutting the lid but still worth the price and setup.

It’s fine. It will serve the purpose for garbage cans. Kinda scuffed up so for price that was disappointing, but once they wrestle the box from the truck and leave. Then you open and see the damage, what are you going to do about it? Was a bit of a hassle getting it here. Had 5 different delivery dates. When forward trucking finally called me, for the real delivery date, the gal on the phone was about as friendly as a rattlesnake and all I had asked is they call my husband’s phone on the delivery day, since he would be the one at home that day and I at work.

Apparently there was a missing bag of hardware with my pirchase as I had several missing screws, nuts and bolts referenced in the instructions. Of course, this was towards the end of the build process, so I had to stop and make a trip to the local hardware store to purchase the missing items. Very inconvenient. Better quality control is needed from the manufacturer.

Shed good size for the price. Doors tend to curve out when closed. Four extra bars would keep the doors aligned. For each door, put one on top and one on the bottom, this will reinforce the flatness and keep from curving in or out. Free shipping would beat Lowe's price for similar size. Design wise, a flat top area would seal a lot better with the lid. One smooth angle, avoiding the back flat area.

Shipping was late to destination city, so the order was not delivered on time. The order did arrive in the destination city late on the delivery date and we thought it would be delivered the next day, however, when we contacted Estes Shipping they informed us that it might be a full 5 days late due to their processes. We offered to pick it up at their location and have not heard back from them yet. Can't really review the product at this time since we have not received it as of yet.

we used three sets of instructions: booklet that came with shed, bilt app info, you tube vid. all were useful. HINGES: only way I could get them installed properly was to connect hinge to door panel and thru pilot hole of bar (this will make sense when you are working on it), then connect side bar panel to door. otherwise, a bit complicated but we took our time and got it done. just two of us, my 100lb wife and me 225lbs. strength does help, and four hands are necessary.

The shed was delivered at the end of my driveway (500 ft) and placed in the middle of it. We had to get a tractor to move it because the pallet and box was so heavy. The ad says easy to put together, it took 2 people 6 hours to put it together, I don't think that is easy. Nothing went easy, after completion the doors are not straight so the latch does not line up. I really would like to take it back and get another one, however after the troube my husband went thru he did not want to put another one together. I would never recomend this product to anyone. I will never by a lifetime product again. I

Assembly was not as easy as the YouTube video showed. I needed some clamps to align some of the side pieces to conform to assembly directions. I used low torque settings on my drill (under 10) some screws tightened, some didn't. Main issue was with the lid, the slots that are supposed to accept the front and hinge hardware were blocked preventing the hardware from sliding in, I was advised that this was a manufacturing mistake. New lid pieces were shipped, hope the slits are clear so I can complete assembly. A little disappointed with the fit and finish but overall, I think the product will function well for its intended use.

Although designed for holding two large recycling trashcans, I bought two of them at my local Sam's Club to take some of the clutter out of my garage. I built each one by myself in about 3 hours. I am storing bicycles, lumber, etc., in them, and that will change over time as my needs change. These sheds are squat compared to a typical shed, but they are wide and deep, a real volume leap over the typical storage deck box. They have endured two rain storms and were "dry as a bone" afterwards. As a bonus, they were $100 less for basically the same Lifetime product from that other box warehouse store that sells those $5 chicken roasters.

This shed is very sturdy. Several support bars and plenty of hardware to hold it together. Took two of use 3 hours, at a leisurely pace, to assemble. In my opinion, you need two people. The shed is much much more sturdy than the one it is replacing. Looks great too! I would definitely purchase from Lifetime again.
