This shed took about 2.5 hours to assemble with my wife’s occasional help. I’ve seen other reviews say this is a two person job and for the most part that’s true. However, if you have something like saw horses or ratchet straps or really anything that will support the vertical portions without you having to hold them, then it’s a one person job. The pros: - this shed is a GREAT value for the money. A huge cut above anything I could find at Walmart or Sam’s or Home Depot, etc - it’s fairly easy to assemble if you’ve got an impact driver. Don’t buy any means use a screwdriver unless you’re just a glutton for punishment. You sometimes need the extra force of the impact driver to bring the metal into the correct position. The thing is somewhat sturdy on its own. It’s heavy enough that someone couldn’t just pick it up and throw it or something to get to the contents. It’s got a plastic coating which I did NOT tear off because I figured it added to the weather protection Cons: - unless you’re a short person you won’t be able to stand up in it. The thing is pretty short. But then again it’s a storage shed. You’re probably not gonna be walking around in it. - The screws provided are incredibly small and I wouldn’t trust them to hold up to much - The thing is fairly weak overall. If I fell into it I think I’d bust through the walls. And if two people wanted to get your stuff, then all they’d have to do is stand on either side and pick up the shed since it does not have a bottom - The included latch is flimsy and so is the hardware. But again, you’re paying for the shed, not top quality hardware. Again, that’s an aftermarket thing. - The thing is not super waterproof. Water WILL get in the bottom. I haven’t observed yet whether it gets through the roof or the sides but it definitely gets through the bottom if there’s nothing under it and it’s open at the floor - Overall, it’s a cheap shed and you get what you pay for, but if you do what I suggest below, you get a really quality shed. TO MAKE IT BETTER AND STRONGER: I set out to reinforce this cheap budget shed and make it at least a bit more intruder proof and make it not feel like it’s blow away with some heavy winds. It cost me an extra $70 or so at Home Depot if you already have some basic tools (drill, impact driver, circular saw, screws) Here’s what I did (see my pics and video in the post) if you’re even a slight bit handy you should be able to do this. 1. I laid five concrete blocks ($2.98 each) on the corners and center of the bottom. This helped to weigh the shed down and provide a raised platform so water running under it wouldn’t automatically touch the contents of the shed. (I live at a rental property so I couldn’t do anything drastic to anchor it. If I owned the property I would’ve used concrete anchors through the base into the slab on my back porch or I would’ve used rebar to hold it in the ground like stakes. Lots of different options to anchor it to the ground) 2. I bought the cheapest plywood I could get that had some sort of weather coating on it. It was $14 for a 4x8ft sheet at Home Depot. Don’t remember what it was called. Other options could be buying a sheet of plywood and painting or coating with epoxy to help it not rot. Really anything like that’d work. I cut it to the dimensions of the base and sat it on top of the concrete blocks 3. Next came framing (something I’d never done before this, so you can do it too). I bought a 8ft piece of 2x6” pressure treated wood and two 12ft 2x4” pressure treated wood. I cut the 2x4s into four vertical pieces to serve as studs in all four corners of the shed. I anchored these to the shed usIng Tek wood-to-metal self drilling screws that I already had on hand. Lots of different screws would work but these got the job done. I used a combination of 1 3/4” screws and 3” screws going down the side. I then used the 2x6s to make shelves running perpendicular to the 2x4s. They were attached with cheap decking joist things (not sure what they’re actually called, you can see them in the video). They were similarly secured with tek screws. 4. Use an assortment of hooks or whatever you like to hang things from the “shelves” and organize that bad boy! 5. Lastly I upgraded the lock. For $8 at Home Depot you can get a much nicer locking mechanism and secure it with stronger bolts than the provided ones. Haven’t gotten around to installing the lock at the time of writing this but it’s not hard. 6. Optional: I didn’t do this but if you want to make extra sure you don’t let in the elements or cause you’re shed to rust, you could use finishing washers with every single screw OR go back and slop some sealant over each screw to make it airtight. I’m not too worried about that though. Prior to doing this I searched high and low to find a tutorial for how to make this stronger and I couldn’t find anything. Literally seemed like no one had ever done this which I find hard to believe. So I share this to say that I’m not overly handy but I could do it. Total extra cost was around $70-$80 so for about $200 you can have a REALLY solid shed. Hope this helps somebody.

It took 2 people about 3 hours to assemble it correctly, some pieces are hard to determine which way or direction they go, but most of it was simple enough to figure out form the pictures, no written instructions. I followed some other reviewers by placing some concrete blocks on the inside corners to help weigh it down, and a weather treated board to serve as the floor on top of the blocks. Had to straighten a few pieces, but that was simple enough, it’s not the highest quality, but we didn’t want to spend $500 just to store $300 worth of stuff. Since we placed it on our deck, we are not concerned about any theft. If you have it in an open area, there are holes already drilled for anchors on the bottom frame. Overall, for the price, it’ll do for a few years at least.

Took my boyfriend and I almost all day to build it but it turned out great! Definitely need two people, at least one to just hold things in place while the other person screws it together. Small, but big enough for our extra junk we only use occasionally. Love that it has a bottom included and is pretty gapless when its put together, so I feel like bugs won't be a big problem.

This is listed as a rainproof outdoor storage. It’s not. The doors are warped and no amount of torsion will align them. The box has zero damage, but three pieces were badly deformed/bent and needed straightening, including the frame for the doors, which I could not straighten. It comes with no tools and so-so instructions. The shelves will warp with any real weight placed on them and the shelf hangers fall out constantly unless they have something on them to weigh them down. The top shelf fell out when installed and was so thin it bent it. As for water proof? There’s is a 1/4 inch gap at the hinge side of the doors and a 1/2 inch gap where the two doors meet. Magnets are suppose to keep the doors closed, but they don't. There are no overlaps between the door halves to prevent water intrusions, so it’s going to get very wet, very fast. There is no latching system other than magnets unless you attach a padlock (which still allows the doors to open 1/2-3/4 of an inch). I stripped 2 of the screws trying to install the door hinges and finally just left one screw out as I could not get a screw to fully seat in it. The base/floor pan is cheap tin with limited supports and bends if you put anything on it. placed on soil or grass, it’s going to corrode and or sink into the ground quickly. I would send this thing back but I’m not wasting my time to disassemble and box it back up.

I am not necessarily one to write reviews, but I did want to mention some things to hopefully help a potential buyer. As the title states, you get what you pay for. After the build process, I can say that it is a seemingly sturdy shed, decently sized to fit a good amount of yard tools (things like a wheel barrow and seed spreader, gardening pots, brooms, rakes, shovels, etc.), and it appears to shelter well enough against wind a rain. Once it was built, I was overall happy with it. On to the issues. with building.. The process starts easy with the base (really just a frame, not a full base. Spent an extra $40 at the hardware store on pavers and wood slats to make a floor) and the walls going up without any issue. Once we got to the roof installation, issues arose. Holes were not lining up at all, the instructions failed to show as much detail as the beginning did, and things didn't make sense. We had to drill our own holes in both the roof panels and the pieces to attach the roof to the shed all because none of the holes lined up. Then, once we got past all of that and started working on the door, the lock mechanism was not aligning. Again, we had to drill our own holes and make it work. This really wasn't the end of the world if you had the right tools and patience/know how, but it was frustrating nonetheless, that it required more than what the directions suggested regarding time, tools, people, and extra reinforcement for the base. At the end of the day, we got it up and it is functioning well. You just have to be prepared to spend a bit more time/money to balance out the low cost of the Amazon shed itself.

This shed is underrated and under reviewed. Some ends were slightly bent but easily bent back into place with pliers. Took me a long time about 15 hours split into 2 days to assemble but couldve got some time was spent doing rework because i put some thing on backwards or upside-down. If you have someone to put the screws in the washers and set them up so they dont separate helps a lot. They also give you more than enough screws washers and bolts so if you drop some in the grass and cant dind them dont worry if youll still have enough. Also if you do split it into 2 or more days like myself assemble the doors, front and back gables and vents, and roof beams while you are in for the night. Yes its dents easily but its expected and the dents are easily and effortlessly pushed back into place. If youre looking for a shed this is a good one. I purchased the indoor and outdoor solar lights from amazon. I plan on putting silicon around the base border to waterpoof it. I also plan on adding windows. For the foundation i bought about 40 bags of quikrete gravel and 70 bags of quikrete cement mix and did a drypour (which was easy and hard at the same time. Hard part was moving the bags. Easy part was setting it look on YouTube for more instructions on dry pouring cement). I would definitely recommend just getting a cement truck to come out and pour it while you do the screeding or do a gravel or wood palet foundation to save money unless you have a team to move the cement and gravel bags. But all in all this shed is exactly what i need and for the price i cant believe it.

I was excited about this shed until we opened the box and saw several damaged parts. Some we could soften out, but others were to far gone. Next issue was right off the back-the first step in the directions they gave us 2 of the same pieces for the long floor. We thought okay we probably will have to pre-drill holes they won’t line up for attachments. We were right. The shed itself has the right idea and I guess you get what you pay for. If we weren’t able to pre drill holes through the metal and piece some of the ends together correctly, we would have been dead in the water right off the start. I suggest if you do buy this be prepared to have damage. It came from inside to out due to not having stronger buffers inside for it banging around. The box didn’t have a mark on the outside so we know it was pour packaging inside to protect the parts from moving and it’s heavy. We added extra roof screws to the roof ourselves because it’s flimsy and probably wouldn’t have made it with a storm. So you need to do this for sure too! Really needs better screws and thicker metal for the roof to be stronger. I was doubting the time they said to put together with our skill level but in the end I see why it took over 4 hours from start to finish this project. You definitely need a solid handyman and assistant to perform the task. Be prepared for the instructions not being direct with what to do for assembly. Pay attention to how the parts go- either inside or outside the frame set up. All in all we were frustrated with parts being wrong and having to pre-drill new holes to match up, but it serves its purpose and we did not feel like waiting for a replacement one. Dents are there but are tolerable for the shed’s purpose! Good luck!

Better than expected and very cute! Not hard to assemble, just go slowly and match up the parts carefully. No shelves included.

Esta bodeguita viene completa, como dice la descripción, sin piso. El material es lámina no muy gruesa, pero suficientemente resistente. El armado se debe hacer por dos personas y viene el seguimiento en un manual. En algunos pasos los diagramas no son tan precisos, pero se utiliza la lógica para concluir cómo van. Todas las piezas vienen organizadas y marcadas. Se requiere un destornillador eléctrico para mayor facilidad. Se necesita una base de madera, por eso nosotros compramos unas tablas para asentar la estructura y el resto pusimos ladrillo. Ya llovió y no se mojó por dentro. Tiene un buen tamaño para poner una estantería dentro y otras cosas. Todo llegó en perfectas condiciones, completo y a tiempo. La relación costo-beneficio es muy apropiada.

La lamina es muy delgada y algunos orificios no cazan, algunas piezas llegan dobladas, pero en general funciona le mande a hacer un piso de lamina y quedo muy bien, por el precio es un buen producto...

Es muy funcional y es justo lo que esperaba. Muy buenos materiales, es algo complicado de armar pero en si es un buen producto.

El instructivo no es claro, los agujeros no embonan, e incluso le faltan perforaciones. La lamina es delgada y llegaron piezas golpeadas. Al finalizar el armado (más de 8 horas entre 3 personas) nos percatamos que hay zonas por las que se filtrara agua. NO LO COMPREN!

Nomás hay que saber leer. Si se arma entre dos es menos el tiempo pero está fácil de armar. Quedó muy padre, la estructura está resistente para lo que lo necesito. Me gustó mucho
