Take your time when putting together, the shed does come with good instructions but it is sometimeS hard to identify which screw to use where. If the website for your local store shows they are out of stock it is worth a trip there to double check. We ordered and waited around a month to get and walked in the store the other day and there are two sitting there. Kinda frustrating!

My shed had some missing parts so my assembly was held up. I contacted Lifetime through their "chat" and Alejandro was my customer service rep. He was very attentive and helpful in getting me what I needed to complete the assembly of my shed. He placed an order for my parts and told me it would be a week or two before they arrived and apologized for the delay. The next day, I received an email that the parts were shipped. Thank you Alejandro!

This product has been in my yard for 2 years and I can say that it is robust and does its job of protecting my bikes in summer and storage in winter. On the other hand, I would say that it is quite difficult to mount even on a level surface. It is not completely waterproof against heavy rain, however, it can be buried in the snow. I have never been able to properly align the top panel for closing which sometimes makes it difficult to lock. This winter, I opened the panel to take something and the gaz spring on the right side did not want to enter the cylinder so that it is already broken. But Lifetime have a good customer service and I think they will replace it.

Purchased my shed about 2 weeks ago, instructions said 2-3 man install. I built it myself in just a few hours. I will agree that 2 men would have mad the roof install easier but still was able to do it myself. Very satisfied with the quality and looks.

The unit arrives via a common carrier. The instructions are fair, but they give you Youtube links if you have additional questions. While I was able to put it together myself, I needed a structure to push against to get the bases together as well as hold the bsck and sides up until multiple pieces were attached. I purchased this unit since it was longer than many othets I looked at. It is sturdy once together and should be beneficial in kerping kids outside toys corraled when not in use.

My family and I moved to a new home in 2018 and little did we know what the wild life was like. One night I heard this noise coming from outside. I poke my head out the door and 2 of the largest raccoons I have ever seen were on trash detail. One was IN the can tossing items to his buddy who was waiting with outstretched paws! Needless to say the battle was on. I tried bungee cords on the barrels, we build a "cage" around the trash cans, I sprinkled animal repellant....nothing worked! Then I found these. AMAZING! They are neat and tidy and can hold 3 large trash cans and I couldn't be happier. My teenage son did the assembly, no problem. Would highly recommend.

While building my horizontal shed I realized that I had 2 right pieces for the roof. I called customer service and they shipped out the correct part and I received it in less then a week. I completed putting the shed together and I am very impressed. The doors are strong and the ability to open the top allows me to enter the shed when needed. I bought the shed to store my portable generator in and being able to lock it makes it that more secure. I am very very impressed with this shed.

I bought this 2 years ago and the shed was pulled down by a big black bear... the frame support was pulled out and one of the gas spring was crooked. thought the shed can still 'stand' in shape but the lid failed the self-support when lifted up. I then called the support to check availability of the parts of gas spring. And I was so happy that the service department offered me a free pair of the gas springs. After receiving the items, I replaced them and the shed lid functioned again ! Thanks so so so much for the great after-sale service !!!!

This review is not based on the product itself but the fact that I received 2 of the same bottom pieces. Now i have to wait a week for the correct part. When asked for compensation I was told nothing they can do. Needless to say I am slightly disappointed.

Shipping was late to destination city, so the order was not delivered on time. The order did arrive in the destination city late on the delivery date and we thought it would be delivered the next day, however, when we contacted Estes Shipping they informed us that it might be a full 5 days late due to their processes. We offered to pick it up at their location and have not heard back from them yet. Can't really review the product at this time since we have not received it as of yet.
