What Customers Are Saying
The Rubbermaid outdoor storage shed is generally well-received for its durability, weather-resistance, and ease of assembly. Customers praise its versatility for storing a variety of outdoor items and highlight the shed's sturdy construction, neutral color, and low-maintenance design. However, some customers have experienced issues with the quality and durability of the shed, particularly with the door hinges and roof seams. A few reviewers noted that the plastic used in newer models seems less durable compared to older versions, and there were some complaints about assembly difficulties.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Shipped 2 Left Side Panels
Would RecommendMy product arrived yesterday. We unboxed it and began assembly only to realize that Rubbermaid included 2 of the left side panels rather than a left side panel and a right side panel. Customer service was easy to work with - BUT they said it would take 14-21 business days for the correct part to arrive and they have no way to expedite the shipment! Not good.

Terrible
Would Not RecommendI bought this box a while back and I can tell everyone honestly this is a waste of money and time this box took me 3 hours to assemble it is ridiculous how hard it is to slide the peaces together not including the fact that if you try and force the peaces into shape the lid doesn't go on I would not recommend this product to the average or even above average human because to put this box together you must have a masters engineering degree plus be a superhuman athlete. Hope this helps

I have had this for 5+ years and was kept in the yard surrounded by trees. I had a baseball glove stored in it (among other sports equipment) that I forgot about after years and it was kept dry and still usable. As with any storage container, bugs and spiders were present, most likely because it is dry. Sometime over it's usage the roof rod went missing but did not deter from protecting the items it stored. I also never used the lock ring mechanism that protrudes through the roof and never saw...

Great small shed
Would RecommendI bought this shed used and it has been a great product. I use it to store storage containers, garden supplies , and little things that don’t fit inside the house. I lost the lid though when we moved recently. Can I purchase a new lid? Does Rubbermaid sell parts?

Nice Shed!
Would RecommendI have bought a few Rubbermaid sheds over the years. Assembly is like a puzzle. If you follow the instructions, it's quick and easy. If you don't, forget it.

Great storage shed, keeps everything dry!
As always, another great product made by Rubbermaid so it’s definitely good quality. So easy to assemble, I actually did it myself and didn’t have to have any help from my husband unlike everything else lol . I use it to put my trash cans in ; outside so that no animals can get to them and much to my surprise, it has withstood all of the heavy rain and snow storms and never once gotten anything wet inside!

Exterior Storage
Would Not RecommendDimensions are exterior and the inside holds less than stated. A bit disappointing.

Assembly is difficult - parts don't fit properly
Would Not RecommendTabs used to connect parts are not molded properly and dont fit into slots, particularly the floor. I even used a rubber hammer and they still pop out.

no good features
Would Not Recommendevery piece is a nightmare to get into another piece. you have to hold one piece to get another in without leverage The last piece the top will not get into the five grooves on the top. slamming down on the top does not work. everything I thought it was secure the top would slide off and fall back behind. Once it is assembled it works as its designed to but after a few hours I am still not complete and stopped the pieces are not perfect to slide and fit.

Storage shed for water well pressure tank
Would RecommendPurchased 3/4/22, installed 6/17/23. Leveled ground first, then everything just snapped together. Seeing similar sheds, I placed a heavy tree branch on the lid to give additional weight to the lid so high winds will not lift the lid, possibly breaking the resin latch (which seems to be a little under sized). Quality seems to be good. Used to house a well pressure tank at a lake cabin. Drilled a 5 inch hole for the well pipe, and a 1 1/2 inch hole for the water line to the cabin. I plan on u...

Piece of Crap Shed
Would Not Recommendi have previously purchased 2 of these Rubbermaid sheds for a previous home. Those were generally of good quality and assembled easily. This shed while nearly the same as those units has undergone a redesign where the unit is frustratingly nearly impossible to assemble correctly. The tab and corresponding slots are misaligned to the point where they do not match up. In addition the two sides will not easily mesh together and when i did finally get them to come together the floor would not in...

Great product for outdoor storage
Would RecommendJust bought this to store my lawn mower outside and it works well. have room for additional items. Has molded in spots to install a shelf and the instructions to build the shelf are in the assembly instructions.
From Rubbermaid.com
Looks exactly as described and went together rathe
Would RecommendI have another from another company and have had it over 15 years. This one seems as if it is just as sturdy. I saw some complaints about difficulty setting up. My 70 year old wife and me at 72 put it together with few issues.
