We had a couple issues that held us up. Door was missing a key part. Then during the build we noticed screws not staying tight. We got oversized screws and new door handles. Both times it took 5 days. So Overall it took us 2.5 weeks to install the shed. I would of sent the shed back but since I got it on sale.

This shed is exactly what I needed. Inside I have a riding mower, two adult bicycles, two fully loaded wire shelving units, and many other miscellaneous tools. With all this, I still have room to move around. After reading several reviews, I decided to have someone assemble my shed. He was very professional and did an excellent job. This service was provided through Sam's Club. Cost, $268. Well worth it. A friend and I built the platform. We built the platform a few inches larger than the plans suggest. Thinking the shed is 12.5 x 8. My shed's measurements are, 12'4 1/4” x 7'9 5/8”. I recommend using the plans measurements. This would allow a little over hang. Which is what you want for rain run off. I simply used a silicone caulk to seal the gap between the platform and the shed. The doors are a little snug. Over all, this Lifetime shed is great! The person who assembled my shed said that he has seen Lifetime sheds that are 15 years old look nearly new. This reassured me in the purchase of my shed.

Wife and two nephews(engineers) were able to assemble shed in 7 hrs. I was able to get out of doing that project because I was away at a soccer tournament with my son in Richmond ,Va. Looks great and wife was happy. It was her Christmas present

Very time consuming to build. Definitely need more than one person. Once built very attractive and solid. Some hardware could be assembled prior to shipping to reduce the number of screws and nuts needed for assembling.

Very satisfied with the way everything went together. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars the instructions are difficult. Maybe if some of the pieces were color coded

The shed is great. It did take a couple of months to get, our date of shipping moved 4 times. Instructions are fine but you do have to pay attention to the steps. It went up in about 5 hours with 3 people. I did the prep work on doors a trusses a couple of days before and that took a couple of hours. I moved the door to the right side, called a rep and got quick service. We both agreed on the changes to trusses and panels and it worked out well.

Must follow instructions precisely this unit takes some time to put together definitely need two people but most importantly pay close attention to the floor and the door bushings. I found out the hard way and had to take half the shut down once it was assembled to swap the floor around .

Went together easily with clear instructions. Suitably sturdy for this type of shed. The reason for a star deduction was the roof panels came in two shades of brown and is very obvious. Also there could be a larger lip over the door. The lack of a suitable rain shield over the door allows rain to drip in from the doors and soak what ever is in the path of water.

Its a plastic shed at the end of the day so during construction, the walls buckle and it's hard to get any leverage for things to line up properly. The fit and finishes are just ok and mainly due to a poor instruction manual and order of assembly. Reflecting on this purchase, perhaps taking more time on a wood shed for less money would have been a better choice.

Pretty decent shed for the money. This is having just completed assembly. Instructions were a little lacking in a couple of places, but really not bad, just make sure you read all of the *Notes because it's always information you need to do the step right. Should ask me to review again in a year and we'll see how she stands up to time, although, we have friends who have had a lifetime shed for years with no issues.
