If customer support can reliably resolve any potential missing hardware issues, this product looks to be a solid purchase.
I needed a shed in my back yard and wanted it to be low-maintenance, and to block a street sighting (a specific request to my household), so I wanted it to be at least 15 ft wide and 8 feet tall. This shed is a perfect match, on paper. After doing all research, I was sure this is what I wanted, and started looking for deals. Amazon at the time was offering it @ $1650, which was a bit too much, so I waited. Finally one day it dropped to $1470, then I bought it. The delivery was excellent. I live in MA, the delivery company send a truck and laid down all four packages exactly where I wanted them to, saving me a tons of time/energy. I agreed with other reviewers, it is not a one day job for sure. I hired 2 handymen, plus myself, and it was like 1st day, foundation, (the place I want to place it was not leveled), 2nd day, assembly, 3rd day (actually a half day), also assembly. So if your base is flat, I would guess it's going to cost you somewhere between one day and two. The shed looks very good, however I did have a water leaking near the joints of front door roof frame, but not too bad. After the rain stopped, I caulked them, now it's completely dry inside since then. Talking about the leaks, I am not sure if we missed anything, but again now the problem was solved by caulking. The door lock is useless, but I wouldn't trust the door lock anyways. Those two things are the reason why I gave it 4 stars. A lot of reviewers had complained the instruction is awful. Amazon is doing a great job. Just to be prepared, I downloaded the instructions myself, and printed it out. Here is the link [...] but amazingly Amazon had a copy of the detailed instruction included in the box, very nice! It is very sturdy, holding up my yard tractor without any problems. We also had a couple of strong winds, stays still. It's spacious, that the tractor is only taking a little less then 1/3 of total space. My garage is now free from gardening stocks, which is the biggest plus. I only have it setup about one month, so let's see how far it goes from here, I will update. Update 04/2014. after a brutal winter, the shed survived the New England weather. We had wind gusts up to 30mph, more than a foot of snow/ice, freezing rain, cold temp minus 10F, the shed showed no problem of handling them. No leaking any where at all, staying still. Also I didn't see any insects inside the shed. Thus I am changing my rating to 5 stars. Update 04/2015. The past winter in New England was a monstah. Record snow falls, 2 blizzards, coldest temperature, etc. The worst winter in history has been put in the book. The shed however, demonstrates its well built nature, by having not developed any problems throughout two years. By far I am very happy about it. Will try to come back next year and give it another update. :) Update 04/2016. Well this past winter in New England was milder, so it was just another piece of cake to the shed. No problem at all, and no complaints from me. Now we have entered the fourth year together and I am confident that we can easily go for a decade. We will see how it performs this year. :) See how it looks now (Apr 2016) in the third picture. vs when it was set up in 2013 in first two pics.

UPDATE: 12 years later and still working great!!! Ok, so let me start out by saying that we searched all over the internet and local hardware stores (Lowes & Homedepot) and this was the best price on Amazon, due to the free shipping and no tax. We ordered it and waited for delivery, which was a pretty reasonable time, since it is direct from the manufacturer. Took about 7 days to get here from the order date. When it arrived it was on a rollback truck and one guy unloaded it. It comes in 4 boxes (instructions are in box 1 of 4). The boxes took up about 1/4 of my one car garage. So make room somewhere. 1) Decide which type of sub-floor you are going to do: concrete, wood, gravel. We did wood (4 x 6 joists every 12 " ), on cinder blocks, with a plywood base. REALLY STRONG!!! 2) Lay out all the peices in all the boxes, organize them in to piles of like peices together. Then just follow the instruction book, it is VERY well explained. We varied a little (didn't assemble the roof frames till we actually needed them)but pretty much stuck to the plain. It is broken down into sections, so you can go little by little if needed. I loved how it told you all the parts, screws, and tools you would need to do the next section. Assembly took two people (my husband & I) about 3 hours. But we work really well together, so don't get upset if it takes you longer LOL :) 3) Two weeks after assembly and it is holding up very well. We have it all organized inside, using the shelves that come with it (plus a workbench my husband made)and wired (he's an electrician) with outlets and ceiling lights. We had a strong storm the other day, and not a drop got inside. Well, that's about all I can say, except it really is the BEST SHED I EVER OWNED !!!! *******UPDATE********* It has been a year since we bought and put together this shed. It has held up remarkably well. I am surprised at how dry it has remained inside.My husband keeps all his power tools in it and never have any of them been damaged. We are located in Southern Louisiana, so it's hot & moist. The exterior has not faded (which is amazing, considering the sun) or molded (which is even more amazing, considering the humidity down here). We have had several storms with high winds (enough to knock over our magnolia tree), but the shed had not moved an inch off the foundation. I think that has to do with how well we screwed it down to the solid wood platform we opted for. To sum up, a year later, and it is still THE BEST SHED I HAVE EVER OWNED !!! :)

Put this shed up in a day by myself. Took 12 hours but had no issues and YOU can put it together by yourself. Very important the floor/foundation is level. Follow the instructions and watch the video's they provide as you put the shed together. Like they say a picture/video says a thousand words. Using both makes sure you are putting it together correctly. Have had it a year now and looks like they day I installed it. Live in Wisconsin so it has seen warm humid weather and subzero weather with high winds thrown in and blizzard conditions. For the price you cannot find a better shed for the price. It looks great, great price and my wife is happy

Absolutely love it! :) If the directions were better I would have given it 5 stars. The shed itself is definitely 5 stars though! I wanted to post some helpful hints that aren't included in the directions, but should be. 1. First, the directions were likely written by a man who knew exactly what was supposed to be done and didn't feel it necessary to explain it to anyone else. Don't feel too badly if you don't get the instructions. It's not you! Also they are about 80 some pages held together by a single staple,which doesn't help, so if you have the time, a three ring binder would be a vast improvement 2. Sub Floor. I used the directions in the manual. I did the wooden subfloor. You do have to put the boards every foot. I tried to take a shortcut and do every two feet, but it didn't work. Every foot or you will have an extremely weak subfloor. Get it as level as possible. It will never be perfectly level since it's not concrete, but you can get pretty close. 3. The "Interlocking" floor boards. Two person job, only because with the 15x8 shed the floor panels are really long. If you can't get a few to interlock completely don't panic. It will work itself out. The best thing to do is move on and stay calm. 4. The Wall. This can be done with one person, if you are like me and prefer to work on your own. If you do better in a group than you may want another person. Here's how it works. Stick the wall in the tab and shove it as far as you can to the left. Then grab your hammer or mallet and using the wooden block that comes in the hardware box, place the wood block along the side of your wall panel toward the bottom of the panel. Pound the living daylights out of it until it won't slide any farther to the left. It's easy, but the directions don't tell you to do that. Before I figured this out I had assembled and taken apart the walls 4 times. It was not fun and admittedly it had me in tears. Hammer and wood block and lots of pounding worked magic and my walls lined up and there was no need to reassemble them! lastly, the corner pieces are hard to put in. There was one I could not get to click in completely, but just as with the floor boards, move on and don't stress. It will work itself out. 5. Trusses. This was relaxing! I got to sit down and move very little. This was one part where the instructions seemed pretty good. Just be sure you are using the right pieces. There will be two trusses with no notches, two with one notch and one that will be a little different and is meant to support the gable. 6. Truss installation. These just slide into place. No screws, which I found odd. if you can't get them to fit into the notch use your hammer to pound them into place. I would suggest tying the notched ones into place with some string so they don't fall. You'll see what I mean once you get to that part. Don't install the middle truss until you need it, which won't be until you are ready to install the gable. 7. Door assembly. Watch the youtube instructional video. The directions don't tell you much here. I still don't know if I did it right. They look even to me, but I can get them to close completely at the top. I'm thinking that it is an alignment issue somewhere. I'll post an update if I figure out what is wrong. like with the roof trusses with notches, I used some string to hold them in place until I was ready to put the gable on. They won't stand by themselves without the gable, but you need them up to install the gable. It's not the greatest design I think, but it apparently works for other people. 8. Roof Panels. There is nothing difficult to understand here, but two people are necessary. you need someone to push on the outside to line the holes up so you can put the screws into place. If you're doing all that and they are still not lining up, look at your truss. If the edge is sticking out, pound it in until it's even with the outside of the wall and try again. The holes should line up now. 9. Top Roof Panels. These are smaller and they just screw into place. We had problems with the middle one, but my husband was able to line it up so now it's okay. 10. Skylights. By the time you get to the skylights your neck is so sore from looking up and your arms are tired from constantly pushing on things, but don't give up you're almost done! These also just screw into place. Since we had trouble with the middle top roof panel we also had trouble getting the middle skylight to snap into place. What I did was use a longer screw than the one they gave me. about an inch and a quarter. The extra length made it easier to get it into the hole and then it lined up without a problem. 11. Shutters. Don't drill holes in your shed. Why they don't have pre drilled holes already is anyone's guess. I tried this with one, but just being off by a teeny tiny bit made it not work at all. So instead I went and got some outdoor glue and I'm going to see if that will work. You can also just leave them off. Other notes... The parts labeling makes no sense. they label the bags that the hardware is in and then the parts have mythical made up names that don't correlate with what is inside the bag. Just look at the picture and do the best you can. Once you get to the roof they don't really tell you what screws to use, but it is the same as the ones you used on the walls. It is leakproof! Just had a huge rainstorm and I stood inside of it and no leaking! Even with the alignment issues we had with the roof. Very please and very happy. :) 4. The Wall

In looking for a backyard shed I searched far and wide for potential candidates, including pre-built, DIY, and kits in wood or metal. I am happy with my decision to buy and build this unit. Headroom entering and inside was a big consideration. A lot has been written about the instructions not being clear in certain aspects. A tip: download the manual from the Lifetime website. It has written instructions to aid the graphics only version that came with the shed. You can print out a few pages at a time for building the base, erecting the walls, assembling the trusses, etc. instead of having a 100 page manual blowing off the sawhorse. The manual suggests a wood platform of 2X4s supported at the 4 corners, I used PT 2X6s supported at 6 points (2 extra in the middle of the long sides) in case a heavy item is stored just inside the doors, like a motorcycle or garden tractor. I also used 3 1/2" deck screws to assemble the 2X6s and 1 5/8" screws to secure the 3/4" PT plywood floor. It cost a little more but in the future, I can easily(?) disassemble it to move or sell if I have to. Make SURE the floor panels are laid out correctly for the door hinge sockets, don't ask how I know! As others have warned, be VERY careful with power screwdrivers. Use a hand screwdriver for the last 1/8" or so. Time-wise, I built the deck in a day and the major portion of the shed in two days with a little help. I did get confused here and there but all turned out well. On the plus side I'm somewhat handy with lumber and tools, on the minus side I'm pushing 71. The components are accurately made and you will have a few "A-hah!" moments when things are in their proper position. Sarasota requires tie-downs which I bought at Lowes for about $30, the permit was about $100. It passed final inspection today with no problems. Hint: I put in 6' high metal shelf units in the ends and discovered the bottom end of a 6 or 8' ladder could rest on the top shelf and the top of the ladder can be held up by a hook from the truss bottom in the center. I am 6' and have plenty of headroom under the ladder. I used 20" pieces of 1X4 to protect the floor from the bottom of the 18" deep shelf unit legs. I had no missing parts and this will solve my storage problems. Who could ask for more? UPDATE July 2015 ,,,I noticed the storm tie-downs had developed more slack than when built. I checked the outside edge of the floor with a level and found the three rear 4X8X16 solid blocks had settled as much as 2". They were originally laid on undisturbed soil after removing the grass. I raised the shed's back wall 2X6 about 3/4 of an inch at a time and put in pressure treated lumber shims as needed to bring it back to level. The shims were at least 16" long, 6" wide and either 3/4', 5/4" or 1-1/2" 2X stock. Another way to check for settling is to look at the vertical wall seams: if some are wider at the bottom it might mean there is sagging, wider at the top might mean a frost heave or a high support in relation to the others. I am still very happy with this product and I'm glad I used 2X6 joists on 16" centers for the floor.

To make a long story short, DO NOT BUY. If you do, please watch the video, the instruction booklet is pretty much useless. Again, with the 2 days of trying to put this thing together, we finally tapped out. We had one of the trusses fall and it put a gauge in the floor. We had the shed on all bricks and level, and we could not get the center truss to sit correctly. After several hours of frustration, we had enough. I contacted Amazon and there was no problem with return, because we only had it for 5 days. We packed it all up in the boxes it came with and had it returned. Yes, there are those that had a no problem and love it. But for the price it is pretty flimsy, and the hardware also was crappy, zinc screws that will rust in time. I don't know if this qualifies as an answer as to the construction of the material, but it took me less than 2 hours to take it all apart (which was 90% complete). So, in short if I knew then what I know now I would never have purchased this shed. Just my 2 cents all.

This shed is great. It came in three huge plastic-wrapped boxes on a pallet . No issues with the boxes or delivery. It was on-time from what was stated and the delivery guy even wheeled all the boxes to my backyard where the shed would be installed. Once opening the boxes and seeing all the parts (walls, roof, doors, windows, nuts, screws, etc) it was a bit overwhelming. The installation manual was also many pages. But once we walked through each page, it went rather well. It took myself, my wife and our teenage son just about 12 hours over 3 days to put it all together and that was taking our time. Many of the steps only requires one person. We installed it on an existing flat concrete surface so we didn't have to worry about building or preparing a pad which could take much more time. The instructions do show details for preparing a base if needed. There were only a couple of issues we had during the installation. Some of the page images are hard to see exactly how to connect some of the parts, and not all the parts are well marked on the items themselves although there are pages in the instructions that do show drawings of the part to the part number but it could still be confusing. We did have to disassemble and reassemble a couple of items because of the confusion but that was minor. The most annoying part was installing the right-hand door. The hole in the floor to install the door hinge pole did not line up correctly and the instructions did not clearly detail how that door is supposed to line up. The instructions show a pre-defined hole, but it did not exist on the floor panels. But because its all plastic, I used a box cutter to make my own slot and was able to install the door. Not the best way but it got the job done. I would highly recommend this item. It looks great, but in a smaller yard this shed can consume a lot of space. But it does give plenty of storage space inside. I included some photos. One more note, the night we finished installing the shed we had a brief rain. I checked and found no leaks so it looks like its well designed for keeping contents dry.

Item comes in 3 large boxes on 2 pallets weighing more than the 345.9 pounds total that is advertised on Amazon. Even the truck driver indicated it was some 700+ pounds. My item is in the process of being assembled. I will return when I have more info to share if possible. Instructions appear to be a photocopy of the original and stapled in the upper left corner. Not a booklet. And the instructions are my biggest complaint! I think a child could write better instructions. For each step they provide a picture of the Hardware and the Hardware bag/box as well as a picture of the plastic/metal Parts you will need. It took me a couple of hours to realize that things were out of proportion... hardware being shown at full size, while parts (metal and plastic) were shown in miniature. About 40% of the bags are well labeled. The other 60% have smaller, black print, on a clear plastic bag along with other writing, making them difficult to see/pick out. Approx. 90% of the parts letters given in the instructions are absolutely not present on the parts. This makes it Very challenging to find the correct item to be assembled in each step of the process. This also forces you to find the online video and follow along on youtube. The video is actually quite helpful. However, even the guy doing the video tells you to do something and then says "but before you" do X, "you need to" do a Y item first. And he uses hardware that differs greatly from what was provided in my non-descript bags in several steps. This makes the assembly process all that much more difficult! They also mix different hardware together in the same bag. This makes it hard to count/find all your hardware to ensure nothing is missing. My fav was 1 slightly shorter screw in with 22 longer screws. Took me 5 minutes to locate the shorter one and put it aside. And I did find I was missing 1 screw and 1 nut. At least they do have decent customer service by phone and are sending me the screw and the nut. I am on Step 7, which is putting up the walls. Erecting the walls occurs after the floor is put together. I had to undo 50% of my walls (as I was putting in the last piece before the door), because the instructions are poor and the guy in the video said that floor piece #5's orientation was "not important". While there are 2 different ways (directions) to have attached floor piece #5, I closed my eyes and simply attached it because it's orientation per the video dude was "not important". And thus, 1 of my bushings was in the wrong position, which I didn't notice until I was installing the last wall piece before the doors. All this work, mind you, occurring while the Arizona sun is beating down. Thank you Lifetime for the unclear instructions! As I said, more to come: Overall, after fighting with warped plastic parts to make a watertight roof, was able to get shed put together and it is reasonably nice. Not sure I'd do plastic again though. Also had 2 more missing sheet metal screws. Lifetime is slow sending missing parts. Picked them up at local hardware store. Now on to anchoring...
