  Really good shed. It was w nightmare to get up and took 3 people about 7 hours, one of which was a builder. However , once it is up it is solid and sturdy, it has remained dry inside through some very harsh rain for hours. We have put a socket and light inside too.
  Very happy.

  Item comes in one box which is quite heavy, most of the items have their part number engraved or moulded onto it which makes checking off and building a little easier.
  Once building you definitely need 2 people and I wouldn’t recommend building in a strong wind as the pieces seem really flimsy.
  The instructions also mention that you need extra room around the shed but don’t say how much extra this so that you can slide the roof panels in to the frame I would recommend at least 1.5 meters on either side to make it easier to get them in, also it is imperative that the ground is level as you won’t get the doors fitted as 5he frame won5 be square.
  The shed seems quite spacious and the bolt will secure it pretty well although you can unscrew it with a Phillips head screw driver, once built the shed seems sturdy enough but I wouldn’t store anything too valuable inside as in my view it could be cut open with a Stanley knife with out using the door.
  Overall quite impressed.

  Paid the extra £160 to have the shed erected for us, well worth the cost. Nice shed that took a three man team about 2 hours to put up on a pre prepared concrete base. It is a sturdy shed with metal bracings for extra strength. We chose the grey colour and it sits in our garden very well. Plenty of light is let into the shed but you might want to add a strip light for comfort.

  First tip, before you even try to erect it buy a tin of silicone spray to ease sliding the panels down the struts – it’s a must! Then it only takes two people a couple of hours max to erect.
  My shed it now about 3 years old and stands well, even in some very challenging weather conditions. It does feel flimsy at times, but that is not the case, it is strong and really will take a bash with a hammer! If, like me you like to see tools hanging on a board on a wall, then you have to build a frame to do that, I would not advise screwing into the thin plastic walls! But no big deal.
  All in all it’s been very good, no repainting needed or rotting bottom edges, the shed stands robustly in the groove along the plastic base, which is alsohard wearing and shows no sign of ware.

  Ok lets start right from the beginning.

  Ordered and delivery was super speedy, took about 5 days from placing the order to it arriving on my doorstep. Now make sure you have someone capable to carry the box as it comes in 1 box and is super heavy as weighs about 55kg so 2 man lift people – keeps those backs safe! I would like to see this split down into 2 boxes but i guess the carriage costs are the reason for the one box.

  As others have suggested, this needs probably 3 people to assemble but once assembled it looks great and is a sturdy little beast. I think this is going to serve you well if you make the purchase. One tip i can give as the instructions are a bit confusing at first, is to take a step back and really think about what you are doing, then it all becomes apparent and easy.

  The skylight roof is surprising at how much light it lets in but i will probably buy a cheap battery operated light just to go inside.
