LIFETIME 60326 Vertical Storage Shed, Pack of 1, Desert Sand

A little tough to put together, however there are amazing YouTube videos you can follow. Very nice storage unit

This seems to be a quality product. I, a 42 year old woman, was able to assemble it by myself in 5 hours. I'm sure it would be quicker with two. The instructions are good. There are qr codes to assembly videos. The drawings are a little challenging to understand but become clear with patience. Most of the parts are clearly labeled except the large metal ones, those can be figured out from the drawings. Some tips: -Some of the included screws need but do not have sharp tips. Drill pilot holes. -The self-tapping screws are a joke. Use a drill bit intended for metal--the one included with the parts for the shed is not good enough. -Drill pilot holes for the hinges before installing the long metal strip on the hinge edge of the door. Make sure the pilot holes line up with the metal strip when you install it. -When in doubt, drill 👏 pilot👏 holes👏.

This is a nice, small shed that's pretty easy to assemble and has all of the features that I want. It took me about 3 and a half hours to build it, but I believe that it can be done faster if you have someone to hold certain parts while you put in the screws -- the directions say, in several places, to have another person hold things up while you drill or add screws but I don't have anyone to help me so I used little pieces of good duct tape to hold the parts, which actually works pretty well. I have the she on the back patio, where it's pouring rain now and supposed to snow some tonight, so I made a base from 4x4's and 2x10's so it's not right on the concrete and won't be in the inevitable slush that I get back there in the winter. I'm using the shed for chicken feed and supplies, to make room in my other bigger shed

The shed was shipped in a single large box, the shipping label on it said it weighed 120 lbs, so getting free shipping on this is a big cost savings. The contents were extremely well packed, although you do end up with quite a load of waste cardboard to dispose of. It takes a lot of room to build it, and you need to have a large flat surface to assemble it on. The instruction manual was very good, you open it up and the first thing you see is a handy link to a YouTube video that shows the assembly being done. The instructions are clear and have very good English. That being said, it is a complicated assembly which I enjoy but might be too much for some people to accomplish. The shed is mostly made of plastic, and in a picture you can see the bottom of the shed and how it connects to the walls. But after it was built, it seems sufficiently rugged. There are only 2 half shelves in it, so I added a tool chest and an old shelved cabinet which fit in well. The ground that you put it on after assembly is critical to the doors lining up and working properly, there is a lot of play in the plastic base and walls, I had to carefully rake and level the ground to get the unit to be square and the doors working properly. Overall, I recommend this shed, I'm very happy with the end result. The color is a bit darker than I was expecting, which is good, and the look of the "wood grain" plastic walls is very nice. It's rainproof and won't need painting or maintenance other than occasional cleaning.

We had very specific criteria for a small utility shed for our small backyard / side of our house. This fit the bill perfectly. We have been using it for about 1 month now and could not be more happy with it. It was fairly easy to assemble. The instructions were very clear (do not ignore the recommendation of 2 people for some of the steps). A few points to keep in mind if you decide to get this shed: 1) This is NOT a metal shed - It IS well built; But, if you need the sturdiness of a metal shed, then buy a metal shed. 2) DO NOT over tighten the screws. Anytime screwing into plastic, take care to not tighten past "snug". Again, the instructions are clear. I used a power screwdriver with the slip clutch set on the loosest setting. Then went back through and checked the tightness by hand. A couple steps I did just by hand. 3) As mentioned in the instructions, be sure to put it together on a very flat surface (patio, garage, etc). We put ours together on our patio, then moved it into place after it was assembled. 4) Again, as stated in the instructions, if doors don't line up perfectly after final assembly and placement, fiddle with the corners of the base until they do. We placed ours just on a smooth patch of soil, and needed to tweak the soil and base corners a bit. But the doors open/close perfectly now.
