What Customers Are Saying

Customers are sharply divided on this shed. Many praise its durability over years of use, straightforward assembly completed in under an hour, and solid weather resistance for storing garden tools and yard equipment. However, nearly as many report severe door problems—warping, bowing, misalignment, and frequent detachment—that compromise security and weather protection. The most common complaint is the complete absence of shelves, leaving customers frustrated that the product feels incomplete and requires costly DIY solutions. Despite strong durability claims from long-term owners, door defects and missing storage organization significantly undermine satisfaction for many buyers.

Must have for outdoor storage

I have used this one for years on my covered deck for towels and kitchen ware for grill. Say to clean. It is pretty heavy duty plastic so it karts. I love the easy to assemble .

I love this a lot

Outdoor storage shed is amazing. The material is great and long, lasting very durable. It is very sturdy and does not move or shake. Easy to access the doors are very nice and great material. This is perfect for anyone who wants an additional storage outside without breaking the bank.

25 years and still as good as new

I have had one of these sheds for more than 25 years and it's still doing great. It keeps everything dry even the the worst weather. Need to buy another one even with the higher cost. It's worth it.

Good unit, just not in full sun-

The storage space is plentiful, but the unit tends to warp over time when exposed to full sun all the time. After a few years , due to warping, it's difficult to disassemble and reassemble . That's my experience. Might be different in a more shaded area-

great for storing long stuff

Would Recommend

It looks like most of the bad reviews on here are by those who didn't read the entire description and thought they were getting shelves. So far this is a decent little shed for storing shovels, rakes,etc.. Will update about how the doors hold up, since we get strong winds here.

Very poor design.

I added two shelves inside, and the vertical panels at the back on both sides opened up. Now there are gaps between the back and side panels.

Could be better

After 3 years screws are rusting. They should be made of a better material. I’d also like for a foundation plan to be included.

Great Product and Durable.

So far, so good. I'm planning to buy another.

Would Recommend

Going into its second summer, I've had mine for a year and a half and it still looks and works great. It sits against a light wall in the full New Mexico high altitude sun but I haven't seen any evidence of warping or sun damage. I made a flat Pavestone foundation for it and was very careful to ensure that all the pieces were fully seated and locked in place during assembly. That part was tricky and I had to go around it several times to be sure it was all right. Then I placed a baker's rack ins...

Absolutely Terrible!

Would Not Recommend

Absolute dumpster fire of a product. Didn’t last even a few months. Zero structural rigidity. The doors constantly fall off. I’ve put additional screws in it but that is only a temporary fix. Don’t waste your time or money. Can’t believe a product like this can go to market.

save your $ and buy something else, wood or metal.

Would Not Recommend

This thing is such a piece of crap and I'm an idiot for thinking it would be anything otherwise. If you lean anything against the walls, be sure it's not too heavy, like a 4 person tent, which isn't that heavy, but heavy enough to bow the walls and creating a gap in the corners.

Perfect size for my needs in area

Salted storage unit a year ago to hold chicken feed and other supplies in. We have been very pleased with the unit so far. Not only complaint is I'm having trouble finding the u-shaped bracket holder for the shelves I need to add four and I can't find them

Outstanding

Would Recommend

I Purchased mine in 2014, and it has done well sitting on my boat dock. What I need are brackets that mount in the side walls, 1/4 diameter, U shape with a flat side including a tapped hole with a screw. I have a picture but no where to post it here. You have a picture of it on this page. Please provide a part/catalog number for the bracket.
