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.

Easy and Looks Good

Would Recommend

Got this as a gift, and put it together today in about an hour by myself. It would have been faster if I has help as suggested by the documentation. Did not have any trouble putting it together myself though. I looks good and seems sturdy. Just wish it was a little bigger to hold my mower, but it was a gift and it will work as an outdoor tool shed just fine. Wish it came with another set of wall anchors, but I can order those. So, I think it is a good product just as advertised.

Waste of Money

Would Not Recommend

The shed didn't even last a year before the roof began to detach from one wall. Now one door is coming apart. It's tricky to assemble because you can't fix it if you don't get each piece perfectly aligned on the first try. Save your money.

Flimsy

Would Not Recommend

Doors don't remain in position, separates from the seams, doors come off hinges when in use, don't close easily, lid doesn't stay in place. I have a larger rubbermaid product that is far superior and sturdier, this one is suitable for light duty only with infrequent usage of doors at best.

Durable, good looking storage

Would Recommend

Purchased two of these 6 years ago and despite two moves (including one cross-country), both remain as good today as they did when they were purchased. Couldn’t be happier.

Everything you want as an outdoor storage shed

Would Recommend

This product is so easy to assemble, I think it took me about 20 minutes after unpacking the box. It is sturdy and well made. Everything fit together perfectly. This is the 2nd Rubbermaid shed purchased, the other about 15 years ago(in northern Ohio), and it is still working like new. Don't fool around with cheap off-brands that will be harder to put together and surely won't perform in whatever weather conditions you have. My new one is now in south Florida. I am confident it will take the weat...

Good product but needs stronger construction

I purchased a medium size (48x52x72) shed two years ago. The snow caved in the roof and one of the doors has fallen off. As a minimum I need a new roof truss in order to repair.

Doors bow

Would Not Recommend

This is a nice shed for the price, however this shed faces west and during the hottest part of the day this causes the doors to bow out where the doors meet the frame.

I could have given birth easier....

Would Not Recommend

Just received today and found the instructions hidden in the box after 2 horrible hours of working. I believe the panels were warped as nothing fit easily. The doors don't open and close easily. The depth of the shelves that I will have cut by a professional are meager. I am so disappointed. I expected a cabinet 20 x 20 to have space for deeper shelves. Less that 10 inches is a waste of space. I see many divots on the inside of the cabinet are these of any use? Do you have any accessories that ...

Shame on me for not reading the tiny print that said shelves were not included. Opened it and put it together, easy assembly. Then noticed the shelf issue.

Other than this, love Rubbermaid usually...

Easy Installation - even for one person

Would Recommend

Per the instructions, it calls for two person assembly. I'm 58 and put this together by myself in about an hour. It was so easy to follow the directions and went up easily. Above all else, it looks great on my back patio.

We put it together as per instructions and after the first rain, opened the doors to find a large puddle in front of the doors. Somehow, the rain is coming in over the doors. What can I keep in there now?

Total junk

Would Not Recommend

I'm so sorry I did not read these reviews before purchasing. I bought a similar shed from RubberMaid 10 years ago and it performed very well. This one however is much lower quality with thinner material and poor interior hardware. Particularly the doors are bowed and do not seal. As a result of the bowing there is a 3/4 inch gap along the hinge line of each door and they are unsightly too. There is no way this shed can provide weather protection for our garden tools.

Almost as expected

Bought this shed to match one purchased several years ago. Guess the colors and door insets have changed, but the picture online has not. If Home Depot has a current image, Rubbermaid certainly should. Bit disappointed, but still a good product.

not bad, but 1M88 or 2x4 pegboard doesn't fit

takes 2 people to assemble, and we had no problems with any parts or assembly. However, be aware that the inside back wall only measures clearance space of 44.5 inches. A 2x4 piece of pegboard needs to be cut down in order to fit the back wall. The Rubbermaid Sport Utility Rack, 1M88 does NOT fit in the pre-drilled holes on the back wall because of the protrusion of the rack on each end. The only way it will work is if you put up a pegboard, and have the utility rack hang off the pegboard....
