Review: Great Value for Small Shed - This is a great value for a small shed. It arrived before the anticipated arrival date, and was packaged well. There was a small ding in the box which resulted in a dent on 4 of the corner pieces. Honestly, it’s so minor wasn’t too worried about it. It is NOT the highest quality and the metal material is thin and pretty flimsy. That said, this is a budget shed and still a great value. It assembled easily and there are some videos on you tube although the instructions were well written with very good illustrations. I do have an issue with door closing very tight and I had to flip the latching hasp upside down to accept the bolt (required drilling a small pilot hole for the screw). It was estimated that two people can assemble in 5 hours; I did it myself in less time, in the dark, with a flashlight (would not have been possible in the wind). I’m planning to make some modifications to create an exhaust port, add electrical outlets and use it as a place to keep my generator out of the rain and snow on some rural property. I would definitely buy this again as a smaller budget shed but might not give it a prominent spot if I had a meticulous backyard.
Review: I built this 10X8 alone by myself. It's doable - I watched 10-15 videos of people taking several days with help. I did it in less than a day, plus a couple hours after work pre-building the roof beams, wall tops, and building, squaring, and screwing the base down to the platform I built. You need to be organized. Build the big complicated pieces first have them ready to go on. Use a tool belt like carpenters use and keep the bag of screws and plastic washers in it. Read the instructions a bunch of times and pay attention to the locations and which way things face compared to the base. The only thing I had real issue with was the top most part of the roof, and if I had a better ladder I'd have wedged a couple of 2x4s under the beam and put them on after getting all the panels on. Lifting one up from the center where it was attached was a pain, if you need to do it put one more panel on first. That being said despite seeming flimsy it's well designed and once it's all together it's VERY solid. I'm going to frame out a couple walls inside so I can add wood so I can hang stuff and lean things against the wall without worrying about denting it, but it's not needed for strength. I might add a little reinforcement just because we sometimes get a lot of snow and I don't feel like shoveling a roof etc. The bad: the door latch hardware is a joke. There is a gap so rain can pass through the center, I just added a strip of folded drip edging that I pounded flat and used the extra provided screws on the back of the fixed door (with latches on top and bottom). The fixed door latches are good. I also added screws along the edge of the roof, you don't even need to drill the screws they provide are very high quality and if you just want to add a screw here and there you just line it up where you want it and bump the back of your driver with your palm, the tips are sharp and will give you a bite enough to drive it through. Also they give you plenty of extra hardware. All said, I'm very happy with the shed. It's strong, looks good, the plastic on each panel really is just extra protection and I figure if it starts to peel from the sun it will be easy to take up piecemeal. Do your prep, have a good level surface for it, square your base well before you get going and pre-build everything you can, having the wall tops, roof beams, the peak of the roof with vents already installed and the braces etc. That made it a breeze. Once you get the corners up with one panel on each put your upper walls on get it all screwed in and you'll have it together in 6 hours.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Budget Build!!
*by A***V on October 3, 2023*

If you’re like me and don’t have the time or money to spend thousands on a shed then this seems to be a solid alternative. I’ll get straight to the point. Pros: Relatively easy to assemble and figure out, Great Price, Solid Delivery Packaging, Fast Shipping, Accurate to size, Seems quite sturdy, and all my parts were included. Cons: Some directions unclear, my box 1 & 2 were accidentally swapped, ridiculously annoying plastic film over ever piece that I ended up giving up on taking off, Lots of gaps that will need to be filled with silicone or spray foam, the metal pieces are somewhat flimsy, assembly took me 2 days on and off, and one of the biggest problems: multiple pilot holes need to be drilled by YOU… However guys, for a budget build shed, this was the way to go for me, I spent $230 on the shed with shipping. About $120 on the wood/paver foundation. And about $100 on spray foam, tools, hardware, shelving, and other miscellaneous items for a grand total of roughly under or around $500! The shed is now weatherproofed. And ready to battle the elements. Although the shed is really cheaply made and the components are far from “quality”, I mean come on, it’s $175 for a 6x4 SHED. Expect it to be a hassle, but expect yourself to save a lot of money. I recommend this shed to any sub-par DIY-er. Thanks for reading the review✌️ I’ll update with how it holds up over time.
