I found the instructions difficult, so I turned to YouTube for additional help. Rubber Toe Man on YouTube saved my day! I'm a newly retired teacher and these instructions are BAD! I needed to see someone actually doing the step, and I didn't find the QR code included in the instructions adequate. I also found another YouTube tip on how to get the corners to pop into place, as I could not get those to move even with all my body weight hanging on the one side. Trimming away the excess vinyl from molding is a night and day experience, so do it. The identification of molded parts is challenging, and this is my 3rd type of shed to put together. Lifetime brand by far needs to head back to the drawing board and include people off the street with input on their labeling of all pieces, including the vinyl molded pieces. For example, all the corner pieces were labeled "back left or back right". Nothing about front left or front right. The fill-in panels were numbered with a molded "6", except one had "5". I'd read and study the written instructions, then jump onto YouTube for further clarification. I screwed up the edge I laid the butyl tape on for the skylights, so I'll need to purchase more from a local store, I've ordered the additional snow load support and was only aware of this as I was looking for more butyl tape. I enjoy a challenge and this has certainly been my challenge for the last two weeks through downpours, and I've made a lot of mistakes which I just laugh at myself. I'd loved to have had help, but my friends were busy, so I've tackled this on my own with YouTube help. If a 68 yo disabled woman can put this together, you can too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, I want to caution you to not use this as a hen house or chicken coop without making alterations. You will kill your chickens if you lock them in it without proper ventilation -- please be smart. My mother purchased this shed as a hen house for her chickens. She lives in an area zoned for agriculture, so she has quite a few chickens and a lot of space to accommodate a larger unit. She has struggled to find out-of-the-box solutions for her larger flock, so this shed has been heaven-sent. I built this for her, replacing the windows and one of the front double-doors with chicken wire to provide adequate ventilation. I left the sliding window on, but covered it with wire, so that it can be open in the summer time and closed in the winter time. I did not install the plexiglass on the two main windows. Screws and large washers were used to hold the wire in place. You can see how I modified the shed in the attached photo. Having two sets of doors is great because one can connect to the chicken coop area and the other makes for easy accessibility to collect eggs, fill feeders, change water, and clean the hen house out. The metal trusses make great places to hang winter heat lamps and suspend food containers. The plastic can just be sprayed down for cleanliness. Perches can easily be screwed into the walls without issue. I would highly recommend this shed. Just make sure to anchor it using the reinforced points in shed floor because it will be lighter than most sheds without heavy equipment in it (only chickens and a few accessories!). Also, make sure to build a good foundation, so that the doors swing properly. Don't forget to ventilate it! One item of note -- when I spoke to customer service about my doors not closing properly, I was informed that some of these sheds are shipped with too large of a metal door channel. If you have the same problem, give them a call -- they gave me the replacement parts for free and were apologetic about the inconvenience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] LIFETIME Products are AWESOME and stand by their product! We love ours, but want to give a big shout out to Terry at LIFETIME Customer Service for helping us out. He went over and beyond and made me and my husband proud to own a LIFETIME Shed. We needed help and he was there to help us. THANK YOU, LIFETIME Products, and a special thank you to Terry!

We purchased this shed and I will never buy a shed like this again nothing lines up doors won't go on right missing screws had to dig in my own supplies to make it work instructions are terrible. Sorry I can't recommend this shed or even the product next time I will just build a wooden sked

We have had our shed for about 5 years and it has held up great. When we first built our shed we put it on a pressure treated wood foundation but because of Utah winters and sprinkler systems the wood began to break down. We decided that we needed to pour a cement foundation (would recommend going this route the first time) and then put our shed on that. We disassembled our shed, poured our foundation and then rebuilt our shed without any issue. The shed is still working great and withstands all sorts of weather without any leaks even with being built, torn down and rebuilt.

I bought the shed a couple of months ago and found it fairly easy to assemble. I did find that the door latches don't work that well and I had to slightly modify them so they would latch. Even with the modification, I still find that I need to careful close the doors so that they latch properly. I also had to add a rubber strip to the bottom of the doors to close the small gap at the bottom. Overall is seems like a good product.

July 10, 2017 Last year I bought 2 of the 10'w x 8'd sheds. Both skylights have occasionally leaked. This year rain leaked into one shed from around one of the windows. I really like lifetime products...but this time I'm not happy with the leaks. WHAT PRODUCT SHOULD I USE TO SEAL THE SKYLIGHTS AND WINDOWS TO PREVENT FURTHER LEAKS?

Pros:"Sturdy","The shed is even nicer in","Easier then I thought to" Cons:"Nice floor but soft" Best Uses:"Garden equiptment" Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. Installation was not that difficult, you just need help holding parts in place as you screw.I messed up the installation of the skylight. I used the special tape provided but installed the dome the wrong way so I ran out of the tape and tried to use silicone but that didnt take and looked messy. I'm awaiting another tape I ordered. I'm confident I will fix the problem. Just make sure you take your time with the skylight and tape and remember to take off 4 protective blue films on the skylights before installation.(oops again) Love the shed. Much sturdier then I thought. Took me, my son and father in-law 7 hours with breaks. This time didnt include the base.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this shed but the skylights were warped and the film could not be removed so they would be clear. Wrote to customer service and they were so accommodating (amazing service) they sent out replacement skylights right away and arrived in days, and we live in Ontario Canada. We highly recommend this company and could not be more pleased with their customer service.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just bought this shed since I love all of Lifetimes products. It looks very nice in my yard. It's very sturdy and doing its job. I know it will last as all my other Lifetime products still look brand new years later.
