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.

Warped Doors - Still!

Put together and the doors are bowed out in the middle allowing elements into the shed. Reading though here, and there are posts 2 years old about the same issue and it hasn't been resolved?! What is the fix for this besides breaking it down and sending back? There are relief depressions at the middle of the door that suggest some sort of additional hinge is available?

Not worth the money

Looks like durable however they way you assemble the panels without any screws make it week. Mine from left and right sight pupped out after couple months and it is not getting back together so there re couple inches gap on both side. They should add some screws on the side to make is secure and durable!

Rubbermaid 079B Vertical Shed --- Need Help!

Would Recommend

The shed has lasted several years, but we recently moved it and now cannot figure out how to put it back together and can't find instructions online. 2nd,,, because it never came with shelves, we've just stacked everything inside, very inconvenient when you want something at the bottom. If I had the dimensions of what the shelves should be I could make them. That would be nice.

Long Lasting shed

Would Not Recommend

I have this shed for 13 years. It's in a shaded area under my patio cover. Nothing gets wet inside but the sides are bowed not letting the doors fit as they should, and a lizard took up residence in the floor. Starting eating my bird seed, I removed the seed but the lizard was living in the floor . It got in through the sides of the shed that have gaps and have been bowed since I purchased the shed. I also had to have shelves made for it. When I take it apart for cleaning I have the hardes...

Perfect for garden tools

Would Recommend

Works well for garden tools, and it's nicely sized for the side of my house. Not too big. And when after years the latch broke, they replaced it and shipped it free.

No good for the sun

Would Not Recommend

We bought this shed in June. My husband, being handy, made shelves for it. We did not store anything heavy on the shelves. It sat on a level deck during the summer and when autumn came, the first wind blew the doors off, and broke one of them. Both sides are warped and the shelves won't stay on the lips for them. I think perhaps this shed would be good for a shaded area, because the sun sure caused a lot of warping. I contacted Rubbermaid and they were very helpful and replaced the door...

Not rat proof

I've had this item for a few years. Recently got a bird feeder in my back yard and stored the seed in the shed. Rats invaded, ate into the seed bag then gnawed through floor and took up residence in the floor panel. Only found out when out of me when I went to vacuum up the seeds and out jumps the rat family. No fault of Rubber Maid of course, but be careful what you store inside!

Quality product!

Would Recommend

Just received our large, vertical storage shed and because it was properly packaged including plastic wrap, there was no damage to the contents of the shipping container. There were no missing parts and although the assembly instructions were primarily pictures instead of written instructions, we were able to easily assemble the shed with nothing more than a small drill and a manual screw driver. We did not use a power driver due to fear of stripping out the screw holes. After assembly in the...

I knew it didn't come with shelves

Would Not Recommend

I bought this a months ago and thought I could just go on line to buy the shelves for it. What a bummer that I can't. I have to hire someone to make the shelves as I have no tools to do this. Mine did not come with a template for the shelves either. I had to do an extensive search on the internet to get the measurements. I have it outside in an uncovered area. It lets water in. I guess water resistance does not include a dry inside. While I was waiting for the shelves to get built one of the wal...

No easy to install hooks or tool hangers available for this shed. Must install peg board and then peg board accessories in order to hang garden tools. Not worth the price.

Just What I Needed

Would Recommend

I bought the shed online after looking locally and not finding what I wanted. I assembled it myself in my living room in a couple of hours and moved it onto my screened patio. I added the pegboard according to the directions. It is exactly as it was advertised, went together easily and does just what I needed it to do. It holds a lot for its size.

Security Flaw on all Vertical Storage units

Would Not Recommend

Hello all, i recently purchased this shed and found a huge security flaw on the doors and don't recommend on purchasing. I am working with the store i purchased this at and hope they can refund. If not, i hope Rubbermaid will come up with a solution / repair for this. I am waiting for their response. It is a nice product but no use if its easily broken into.
