Outdoor Storage Shed 6 x 8 ft. Utility Tool Shed Metal Storage Garden Shed with Door & Lock for Patio Storage, Brown

I am 74 and put this together by myself. Lots of screws! We are on a lake and get lots of wind, so I reinforced it on the inside with 2 by 4's. Good shed for the price.

I purchased the 8’x6’ shed, and as others have mentioned, the interior dimensions are smaller than the advertised size. One of the most important steps is making sure you have a solid, flat, and level foundation. I built an 8’x8’ wood deck for my shed, taking extra care to square the corners and ensure it was completely level. The directions were decent, but you really need to study them carefully to avoid mistakes. For the most part, the panels lined up with the screw holes, though I did run into a few misaligned spots. During the installation, especially when the wall panels were still vertical, the shed felt flimsy and unstable. However, once everything was in place, including the roof, the structure was surprisingly sturdy. The aluminum panels are thin and dent easily, and the edges are very sharp—I ended up with a few cuts during assembly. My recommendation is to weatherproof the shed once it’s built. I used paintable silicone caulking on all seams (including the roof) and then applied a rubber seal coating to the entire roof. I also painted the shed gray to match my other building, and so far it’s remained leak-free. My only concern is durability if something heavy, like a large branch, were to fall on the roof—it would likely cave in. Overall, if you’re looking for an affordable shed and are willing to invest patience in assembly plus some follow-up weatherproofing, this is a solid option.

very very flimsy metal and connectors. The tiny screws were impossible to insert. There was no reason for the screws to be so short! They should have been one inch long at least! Package was shipped without sufficient packaging and arrived 10 DAYS LATE. Every panel was dinged and bent! There was NO styrofoam to protect the panels. There were not enough washers to complete the install. The directions were just photos without any way to tell the top or inside of the supports from the bottom or outside. A sticker on the top or inside would have made a huge difference. If you got it mixed up the holes would not lime up!! It was a nightmare of assembling, taking it apart, then the holes were too big and you have to buy bigger screws. Seriously cheap and flimsy parts. Pay the extra $100 and buy better build sheds. This took four people THREE WEEKS to put together with the constant taking apart from inadequate instructions and stripped screw holes. Ane we are mechanically inclined!! I can't imagine a beginner trying to put this piece of crap together. Save yourself!! Buy anything BUT this item.

The shed arrived two different days. Be sure to have the delivery person leave it where it will stay as the packages were too heavy for me to move. I hired a guy who is experienced at assembling these things. He built a floor and we discovered that it isn’t really 8 by 6. That is the measurements at the roof. Didn’t really matter to me, but if you need eight feet this will only be seven feet seven inches. The instructions said about three hours but even with his experience it took closer to five or six. The directions were good. All the parts were there. I had am empty carport for construction so pieces would not get lost. There were a few pieces that had gotten dented and bent during shipping but those were able to be straightened out. I love the wide doors that swing and are on the long side. It looks nice and I was able to put all I wanted inside. I would recommend this shed even with the few problems. It looks great. Just be sure to have help.

You get what you pay for so I was not too surprised. The panels are extremely thin and will bend quit easily so do not lean anything against it. If you fall on it it's game over. Not all the holes line up so I had to drill some new holes. The instructions could be better. I had to buy better metal screws to make it more secure as the included ones don't really do the job. I'm 80 % done and I see I will need to reinforce it in certain places and will need to add some sealing caulk to prevent leaks. You will need a good foundation to set it on and to secure it.

Over the yrs I have assembled several metal sheds . I am a carpenter by trade and 58 yrs old it took me 6 hrs by my self . You must start out on a level platform and SQ that means measure is diagonally both ways to SQ it up this shed 6x8 was 110 1/4 by 110 1/4 diagonally I fallowed the instructions to the perfectly and ALL the holes lines up. If the holes do not line up and you can not get the holes to line up by pushing pulling or flexing things then you have made a mistake somewhere go back and correct it or you will be fighting this all the way thru and it will never come out right. Trust me all the holes line up . People make the mistakes on assembling the top rails so beware there . As for the Quality and thickness and softness of the metal for the screws to bit into it is an absolute 0 the lowest quality I have ever seen on any metal shed theses no matter the brand are all the same due to the country these are made in . Made in the USA is a thing of the past.. I would not purchase another one that is for sure .

Great shed for price If you get it a day or so before you are going to put it together do yourself a favor and put all plastic washers on screws ahead of time That was the longest part of putting shed together

A real great shed a lot of small parts to put together but it worth the money
