I’m really pleased with this shed, especially at the price of £460 that I paid for it (it was nearly £1200 when I looked before posting this review, so watch the price if you’re thinking lf buying it).

It takes a long time to put together and is definitely fiddly at points. You cannot do this on your own – for a while there were 3 of us working on this, although the roof was done with 2 the next day. There are an awful lot of screws to put in and quite often the drill wouldn’t do it so a hand screwdriver needed to be used, at least to start them off or tighten them at the end. The screws that have to go through metal are particularly tricky.

My main tip for anyone would be when you think a piece is pushed in all the way, use a block of scrap wood and firmly knock it with a hammer/mallet – I found out the hard way that pieces weren’t flush even when you thought they were without doing this! However all the pieces are clearly labelled so it’s easy to be sure you’re working with the right part and fixings at any time, including labels which show way up pieces should be.

The size is good so it’s really useful for storing lots in an organised way, I’ve been able to put up 2 large shelving units inside and still have lots of floor space for other things. If you’re careful everything fits together well. The tolerances are very small so you do need to be precise and careful with the pieces. Considering how light and even flimsy the plastic pieces feel when you take them out of the box, when it’s all together it feels very sturdy and the plastic material feels durable, including the roof.

I can’t comment on waterproofing yet as it rained while putting it together but not since the roof went on (typical) but there’s nothing that makes me think there will be an issue.

Base and walls were relatively easy to put together. Roof was a pain and needed three people at one point. Building on a level surface is important.

We were building into a corner so wouldn’t be able to get the screws into the hidden sides, but the whole thing is just light enough that you can move it around while its empty and slide it to where you need it.

The floor is pretty squishy – anything heavy will dent and flatten it, anything sharp will pierce it. We had a sheet of 12mm OSB spare so trimmed it to fit. You probably want to price this in if you’re going to be storing tools, gardening equipment, freestanding shelf units etc.

Since putting this up a couple of weeks ago we’ve had plenty of rain and some of the worst storms in decades but the shed has held up fine.

What I’d do different next time –
1. Only put in enough screws to hold it together until you can get the roof on. There were sections that looked level but would clash when the roof went on. I ended up taking 3/4 of the screws out, re-jigging it, then putting all the screws back in once it was where it needed to be. Thankfully the plastic is pretty forgiving.
2. Add the roof trim to the roof panel but don’t screw it down until its on the base. If you align and screw the roof trim on first, to where you think it needs to be, it will likely not align with the base. Keep it loosely fitted, lift the roof on, align the roof trim to the base walls so it all fits, then secure the trim to the roof and the walls below. Because access will now be tricky you’ll need a right-angle drill bit to do it this way.

Wer etwas handwerklich begabt ist, kann den Schuppen aufbauen. Der Anleitung sollte man exakt folgen.
Am schwierigsten ist, das Dach aufzusetzen. Da wäre ein dritter Mann (oder Frau) hilfreich.
Wir haben jetzt zwei solcher Schuppen und sind sehr zufrieden. Die passgenauigkeit ist in Ordnung. Allerdings mussten wir bei einer Tür doch neue Löcher bohren… also zwei linke Hände darf man nicht haben, dann ist der Aufbau in 4-5 Stunden machbar.

I am.totally and utterly over the moon with this shed now its up.

Arriving in one large box, this shed took two none DIYer a total of 6 hours to put together stopping only to have something to eat.

Instructions were easy to follow and each step was explained very well with numbered parts and screws which helped.

Everything slotted together nicely and the tool supplied helped with this process enormously.

I must admit I was quite concerned at first when 3 of the walls were in place and the structure was flapping about in the wind…but you have ti trust the process as it all came together nicely in the end , resulting in a solid feeling, stable shed that’s completely waterproof.

The fact that you can choose the location of the window is a huge bonus feature I wasn’t expecting but a nice surprise.

I would suggest you buy or borrow a electric screwdriver for the task and some ladders or something to stand on when fitting the roof would be helpful too.

All in all this is a lovely shed, easy to construct and totally maintenance free once constructed.

Highly recommend 👌
