(More customer reviews)I bought this shed because I needed one that was below fence level (6 feet), and this gave me more room than any of the plastic sheds that met that height criteria. The metal parts are marked with a part number, so when you are following the manual, it doesn't take a long time to find the necessary parts for that particular step. It comes with only two sizes of screws, and lots of them, so again you are not wasting a lot of time measuring which one you need.
That said, it still takes a long time to put this shed together. If you are handy and your buddy is fairly handy, expect to take two days to do it. If you try to rush and do it in a day, you will screw up and waste even more time. I did screw up though. The right angled sheets that go in each corner are different sizes, pay attention to the part numbers. This caused me to have a 2 inch gap in the back, so I shortened the frame in the back to compensate, which may have caused some of the room holes to not line up.
The metal is pretty thin. Anyone who wants to steal your stuff could break in with just about any tool they tried.
The directions could be better. Some of the detailed images are very small and of poor quality, but you will eventually figure things out.
It is recommended to build this on a concrete slab. I didn't want anything that permanent, so I opted to use 20" square concrete blocks that you find at Home Depot or Lowes in the garden center. I used 20 of them in a 4 by 5 grid. I had to buy around 8 or 10 bags of leveling sand to get them all flat and level. I then used Tapcon concrete screws to secure the shed to the concrete base. Again, it would have been cheaper to just buy some bags of Quickcrete.
I thought it was funny that the roll of seam sealer they suppy to join the roof panel seam bears an uncanny resemblance to duct tape. A metal ridge piece goes over this, so it's probably okay as far as keeping the water out. I am 95% done with my installation. When I finish, I will probably cover some of the roof screw with silicon sealant just to be extra safe.
