For the money this a great shed easy to put together. A little time consuming but not hard. KEY make sure your foundation is flat and level and it set up quickly and easily. Take away time spent with the foundation it took 2 of us 2 days to completely assem

My 20x8 Lifetime shed just survived a 100+ mph wind gust with sustained 60-mph winds. Lots of trees down in and around the area. Maybe we got lucky with wind direction, regardless the shed held up great. The end doors were pushed inward and a latch was slightly bent - but these were the only signs of what had slammed into it. It’s incredible to consider the force it took to push the doors inward. The doors had to be pushed past the rigid overlaps around the door jamb. I had to really tug on the doors to pop them back to the outside of the shed.Make sure the surface you’re assembling on is as close to perfectly level as possible. Mine was not, so I had to do a lot of torquing with ratchet straps before the final panels would snap into place.My wife and I were able to assemble it in 3 days without any experience by using the YouTube video series by a guy called Rubbertoe. It’s a fantastic step by step guide with tons of invaluable tips.We HIGHLY recommend this product!!

We are on day 3 of trying to put this shed together. The floor is a total joke super cheap and weak. Got to the part where we are getting the doors together and they do not fit building is square but the rods in the doors with tiny cotter pins are a joke.Would return if I could.

I’ll start by saying my husband and I, two 29 year olds, put this together over five days, working about 6-8 hours a day. Could have gotten done a lot quicker but we ran into several moments where pieces wouldn’t go together as they should. A few of our roof panels arrived warped making it basically impossible to have line up in the trusses. Things like that go from taking five to ten minutes to taking two hours to figure out how to make the warped piece pop into place. Also, if you are doing the walls make sure you have enough daylight to do the entirety of the walls all at once. We got half way done with the walls before it became too dark to go on and when we woke up walking out to get started a small Florida breeze knocked every single panel down that we had put up! The front part of the roof over the doorway would not align correctly due to the two warped panels and it has resulted in the shed having panels that are not flush with the holes that connect it to the truss below. We haven’t had rain but we’re hoping to see it is still waterproof. We plan to put a tarp over this area just in case. I can’t say completely bad things about the shed because we are thankful to have. Our storage unit wanted to increase to $400 a month so the shed will pay for itself in less than a year, however, if the roof leaks I will feel so distraught for paying over three grand for warped parts that won’t fit together. We downsized from our home to a rv and the shed will serve to protect some of our most important keepsakes.the flooring is just a thing piece of plastic so you will definitely need some sort of base to assemble on to ensure water doesn’t intrude. We built a pallet porch and used extra wood to level the floor and keep it elevated off the ground.

Very nice shed it took 2 days to set up with plenty space. It came with over a 1000 screws so get your Philip screw driver ready but anyway i was so happy with my purchase that i ordered another one thanks lifetime. Only problem i have with them is its hard to get replacement parts its like there website doesn't work when searching for parts.

My husband and I are both 60yo. He works, so much of the assembly was my responsibility. Obviously, I needed help with the big stuff, but following the YouTube videos and carefully analyzing the sometimes confusing instructions, we took our time to do a top quality job, and had it fully complete within a week.I spend time leveling the ground and set cinderblocks, then I built a wood framed base out of a repurposed 6" x 6" wood post playset and joists of 2x6 PT boards topped with 3/4" plywood. I surrounded the base with buried hardware cloth to keep groundhogs and coyotes from making a home underneath.We have not secured the floor. In it, we have a log splitter, ladders and shelves loaded with supplies. Despite having some wicked storms, the shed is solid. I did have a small leak in one of the skylights, but I just added more of the sticky putty in that spot and no more leak. It does get sun during the hottest part of the day, but there has been no warping or fading. The doors all operate well.It has been a great, useful shed to us and we have not regretted the purchase.

I purchased my shed in 2022. I purchased the 8 x 20 shed. I love the look of the shed and it was very reasonably priced. The shed is sturdy, but it does not handle direct sunlight very well. The shed floor buckles up when the sun hits it. But will go back to normal when the sun is off of it. The shed doors worped a little, and they do not close all the way. There’s a gap between the doors and the shed. That damage is permanent. It got so hot that one of the screws popped out in the inside of the shed. I couldn’t put the shed back in its boxes and return it. I contact the manufacture, and they offered to send me new parts, but those parts would just get damaged as well. They had no technical support in my area, so there was nothing they could do for me. I would definitely make sure that there is some shade over the shed. I love my shed however, I use it as my art studio when the weather is mild.
