I bought this shed a month ago and it was backordered but arrived last week. Three of us erected this shed and it took three long days only because of the poor design since we had to correct the many design errors. On page 15 of the manual at the bottom is a warning to make sure the truss with the notch goes to the front of the shed. This is important but there are no directions for installing the trusses. On page 20 it states that the support tube is to be put through the hole in the front truss channel. Sounds simple except the tube is 1 1/2 inces short and is it is impossible to line up even if it were long enough. On page 41 there are directions for laying the floor and making sure the door rod holes are in the right place. The directions are nonsense. The diagram on page 41 shows where the door pins should go. The left one works fine but there is no way the door can fit the hole on the right as shown. We had to cut out a large section around the hole to make it fit. The capper was trying to install the snowload kit. Whoever designed this needs to put one of these sheds together on his or her own. On page 84 there are instructions to install EGQ on the tyrusses. There are no, and I repeat, no, predrilled holes on the trusses. The self tapping screws have no hope in penetrating the steel and we had to drill hoiles in the trusses to install the gussets (EGQ) to make them fit. Then came to short truss braces. Again, there were no pre drilled in the steel and since the self tapping screws are designed for tin or aluminum, they were uselss. For the same reason we gave up on the gable support. When the shed was finally assembled, the caps were not tight to the roof and I will have to climb on the roof and use some sort of glue or ceement to to make them flush. This could have easily have been a two day job that ended up taking three long days. Never again will I buy a Lifetime product if this is a typical example of a LIfetime product.

This shed went up fairly easy, my husband and I put up in about 7 hours. I would recommend using the online app., great step by step directions. We are using ours for a cabana, so I needed extra hooks for towels etc.. When I called the company they were very polite and are sending me extra as a courtesy. Thank you Lifetime! Otherwise they were only like $3.50/6pk.

Just finished putting this shed up last week. Took 4 days to install. The instructions to start were great-ish. Wish screws and small parts were individually labeled with stickers or something. When I got to installing the roof supports it got crazy. Instructions are vague and pictures not clear as to what to do. Some boxes were mislabeled, I was missing shelfs and some hooks were broken and center roof support beam was bent. The door didn't line up correctly to close, so had to raise the left side floor and it worked but when it gets hot doors don't close. It's been over a 100° here so I'll let that slide. Called manufacturer and couldn't get through, left email and no reply, and it's not like I can return the thing to the store for a couple of shelfs, hooks and a support beam(hope it's not too important, it's a small one). I spent way too much time getting it up. Oh and be careful, the screws strip easily.

Materials seem to be of good quality but the roof fit is terrible on this model. I hope it will stay together. FYI: Mine was purchased at SAMs Club and is model 60302 which is slightly different. Doors don't fit and don't match molded gable end. Very difficult to connect some panels with screws provided. Instructions very poor and part list not always correct. Missing parts. Very disappointed.

Shed looks awesome and came together very nicely. But when they delivered it the just left it on the curb hanging in the street. Boxed weight is 555lbs. So had to open the boxes and carry it all up piece by piece. Took 3 handy adults 3 days to assemble. It's definitely not for not handy people. We do a lot of projects and struggled. All and all looks great but it was a tough build.

We just finished assembling the 10 x 8 model. The construction of every detail is very well made, and the hardware was identified clearly with great visual aids. My husband and I are both very experienced DIY types, having installed hardwood floors, laid concrete driveways, built retaining walls and adept at fixing any thing that breaks. We had the right tools and laid out the parts to stage the steps as we built the shed. No complaints with the materials, however, the instructions were not clear in some areas of installation, particularly the door assembly. The entire door assembly was unclear regarding the direction to install the door end channel to ensure it was properly aligned for the door locking parts. The hinge tube did not "slide" down into the hole on the door a mallet was needed. These little things matter. With regard to the roof, I knew there would be challenges from past she'd we have built . However, the instructions did not state up front that 3 adult people would be required, not optional, to install the roof, particularly the trusses. The icon of 3 "people" was a subtle hint. This shed is not one that a novice should tackle. Unless you have built previous sheds (we built a Rubber maid and a metal she'd from Arrow - never make that mistake) I would recommend that you have someone professional do the installation. This is not a DIY project unless you are somewhat mechanically and engineering inclined. Overall, it was worth the money, and I think we will be very happy with this shed. It is well made.

I bought this shed in 2016 and have loved it! I have had no issues with it. It is secure against pests (mice!) and stays dry. I paid for it to be assembled and was happy with everything about it. Unfortunately, a recent storm sent a tree limb through the roof so I am replacing it with the same product. I highly recommend this shed.

So far so good. Looks great, let's hope it lasts!!

The shed is fine but the instructions too put it up are. Terrible

I just bought this Saturday. Not off to a good start. No instructions in the box.
