As with every household, we needed more storage space. Our 3 bedroom bi-level is busting at the seems and our wooden shed (delivered on a flatbed truck) was full too. So it was time for another shed. I looked at a lot of different options but the biggest stumbling block I had was how I was going to get the shed where I wanted it. I needed the shed to be in the back yard. The yard is accessible by small truck but my septic system is in the way for a flatbed to come in. I thought about building one from scratch but with the time for labor and money for materials, it just didn't make sense. I looked at the wooden shed kits from Lowe's and Home Depot but they are really not made all that well (for a wood shed). I reluctantly decided to look at the "plastic" Lifetime sheds. I first thought how good could they be, after all they're made of plastic! My local Lowe's had one and I was surprised how well it was made. The kit is designed so that when it's all together, it's actually pretty solid. Amazon had the 15'x8' foot shed for about the same price the big stores were selling it for. I could have ordered one from Lowe's and had it delivered or picked it up with my truck, but it's pretty heavy. I noticed this shed was Amazon Prime eligible (which I have) and thought how could they possibly ship this thing in 2 days to my house for free. Guess what, they did! I couldn't believe it. A trucking company contacted me to set up a delivery time and a day later they were backing down my driveway. The free, speedy shipping was great, I was however a little annoyed that the trucking company came with only the driver and a dolly. I had to help him offload the shed from his truck at the end of my driveway. So do you think I would get workman's comp if I blew my back unloading it from their truck? ;) I unpacked the boxes one at a time, loaded the parts in my pickup truck and drove around back to the construction site. Easy, easy! Assembly was fairly easy. Some of the directions were a little confusing but if you take your time you can figure it out. This is DEFINITELY a two man(woman to be pc ;) job. You need someone to hold and someone to fasten. My dad and I had the entire shed together in a long 8-9 hour day. I did have to go back the next day to do some finishing touches like slip in the plexi windows and attach the shutters but that took all of 30 minutes. One very important note! The base for the shed needs to be perfectly flat and level. Almost flat or slightly off isn't going to cut it. The included plastic floor of the shed is the base for the entire structure. The wall panels interlock with each other and snap into tabs in the floor. You need quite a bit of pressure and persuasion to get the tabs locked in. Once in though it's a pretty solid structure. In a perfect world you would want to have a concrete base poured that was perfectly level, but for a shed this size at a minimum of 4" thick, that's a lot of concrete. I would not suggest mixing it by hand, the way to go is bring in a truck to pour it. For me concrete wasn't an option because of where it was located. Instead I got a load of QP (Quarry Process) which is basically 3/4" stone with stone dust mixed in that compacts really nicely. They use this stuff for driveways and for retaining wall bases. The secret is you need to spread it in thin layers compacting each layer as you go until you reach a 4" thick base (spraying each layer with water first and then compacting is better). This is a nice solid base that if done properly will never move or frost heave. The QP cost about $160 delivered and you can rent a gas powered compactor for about $50 - $75 per day (which I would recommend. Doing it with a hand compactor is hard work). You could put the shed directly on the QP base but I went one step further and built a wooden base. Back to Lowe's for some pressure treated 2"x4"s and pressure treated plywood. I bought 2 - 16' 2x4s for the front and back and then 8' 2x4s for the sides and in-between. I built the base as if I were building a wall. I cut 3" off the 8' 2x4s and spaced them 16" on center. I actually used 4 saw horses (one on each corner) to make building the base a little easier on the knees. Once built we placed it on the QP base, squared everything up and then dropped 4'x8' full sheets of plywood and screwed down with gray coated deck screws. I actually built my base to be just slightly larger than the base of the shed so I had to cut the last piece of plywood. To make your job easier you could just leave it as a full piece making your overall base dimension 16'w x 8'd. If I had to do the base over again I would probably place the 2x4s 12" on center rather than 16" to give it a little more strength. The floor flexes a little when you walk on it and especially once you start loading it down with heavy stuff. I might also consider using 2x6s for the base structure for added strength. The 2x4s, plywood and screws cost about $200 My biggest complaint about the shed itself is the roof panels. The front peak was a real P.I.A. to put together and the panels didn't line up perfectly. I don't think I'm going to have leaking problems but there are a few small gaps. The alignment of the doors is another issue and why it's so important to have a level base. If the base is off even a little bit from left edge to right edge, the doors won't meet properly in the middle. You'll need to shim and tweak to get everything to ling up. Speaking of the doors, the inside door latch barely works (again because of alignment issues) so invest in a good waterproof combination lock ($14 from Lowe's :), to prevent the doors from coming open and of course to help protect your stuff. Even with these few little quirks, I'll give the shed a 5 star as the most bang for the buck.

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.

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

This shed is fantastic. I poured 6 pillars using sono tubes one day and then framed it out using 2x6 PT lumber with a 3/4" PT plywood deck to finish off the base the second day. The floor was level and true which made the installation a snap and also makes the floor and walls go in smoothly. The hardest part was installing the corners. Take your time and squirt a little dish soap on the tabs and it should slide right in. I only used a power drill to tap the door post and for the shedders the rest we did by hand. The directions are written ok but there are a few tricky sections you will be left scratching your head. Just think it out and you will get it. The shudder install section I did not get. The screws supply were too short. I went to the local hardware store and bought 2" SS screws to complete that install. I created a template from the back of the shudder, drilled the holes and than had someone hold the shudder up while I drilled from the inside. The install of the shed took me and a helper roughly 7 hrs on a Saturday to complete. The base took a few hours because the concrete had to cure for the pillars. Hey the shed looks fantastic just take your time and read and then reread the directions. I consider myself an average handy man and if I ever needed another shed I would purchase this shed again. Reading the reviews I find it hard to believe one man could put this up in a day or even two. You need second person to push on the panels in certain steps to secure the panels. To top it off on Sunday I ran electricity to the shed, put in two electric sockets, a switch, LED shop light and motion detector flood lights in the front and rear. Love the shed and honestly I hate having to fill it up! If I can revise the review I will post a picture when I get home..

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.

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 !!! :)

We bought this shed after a fairly intensive search via online and "brick/mortar". The review claiming 3 hours is utter nonsense.. Here is what to expect - If building the shed in any kind of heat be prepared for warping; which will change how the shed goes up and how difficult. My wife and I do projects together all the time, install, build, create, garden, etc. It took us almost 9 hours..This was after opening boxes, reviewing instructions and yes, even printing new instructions. Instructions - a joke. The part has a number on it but the instructions have lettering = LOL..You can figure it out, like we did, but this adds serious time to the overall project. Again, be prepared. with patience and plenty of time. On 1 set of instructions - roof, it never stated to screw in the roof panels to the trusses. Now common sense says you should but with 80 pages of instructions you wonder does this come later?? again poor instructions. Putting the sides in - I weigh over 200lbs, it took every bit of my 200lbs to get the sides in, even using the block of wood on each and every hole. Corner pieces dont fit very well. - we do have a very straight, lvel concrete slab, which has been down for over 5 years - settled. Part bags - screws again are incorrectly labeled - over 400 ADZ(instruction manual name) screws and bag states= Sub B. Now, it is a better shed than most, but once we read reviews we were inclined to believe this was a one day project..dont kid yourself.I'm further inclined to not read reviews anymore since they seem to be created by the manufacture and are probably a "manufactored" piece of writing - pun intended. Overal thoughts- good shed, really, really poor instructions and be careful of reviews. I'm writing this, the day after we finished while the pain and thoughts are still fresh. Rating it 3 stars, good quality shed, unfortnately we misinterpreted how much time and effort plus HORRIBLE INSTRUCTIONS.. Good luck!
