Poor floor and not all required materials listed!
In the very first step, you are required to glue the floor pieces together. However, this is neither provided nor listed as a required material you will need. Overall, the floor is the most disappointing part of the shed; it does not feel like the pieces are truly connected.
Although the assembly is intense and definitely required two people, patience, and careful reading of the directions, once assembled the shed is actually quite solid. For a $2000 shed, it is about what you would expect.

Hi Mackenzie,
The assembly manual does not mention gluing the floor pieces together. The floor pieces connect by a designated built-in connection, like a puzzle.
we are sorry to hear the overall assembly process didn't go so smoothly for you, but glad to hear that your efforts paid off and that you love the shed and its sturdiness after being built.
If there is anything we can do for you in the future, please don't hesitate to contact us at https://canopia.com/support

A nightmare to construct, even with help from a professional contractor 30 years in the biz, and three of us to hold it together during the build! Instructions were awful. Not even confident in how durable it will be. Seems flimsy, and concerned a branch will wipe it out or a box falling over inside will take out the side wall. Crossing my fingers and holding my breath.

Trouble Comnstructing
Definitely requires two people to construct it: one to do the assembly and another to hold up the parts so they do not fall down, at least until at least two sides are assembled.

The shed is the quality I expected--good but not great. The instructions are not good at all--even after watching the video. Some steps were out of order and I had to take apart what I had just done to finish some other part of the shed.

The shed looks sturdy in the photos but once I received it it's mostly fery flimsy cheap looking plastic. It's not even resin, just thin plastic.

I think the three floor panels should have been made to snap together rather than butt up against each other to compensate for the warpage and not have to duct tape the seams together to keep them even. Other than that it looks great and serves its purpose just surprise the walls are sooo flimsy

This is one of the best purchases that I made in recent times... all my friends and neighbors love the look of it. I find it to be very sturdy and it has plenty room for all my gardening tools and equipment. I built a concrete slab and ordered a removable ramp to allow access. I absolutely love the amount of light that comes through the roof... that's a great feature.

Okay BUT.....
Shed is perfect size for my needs. Not sure the floor is verry sturdy, its more like a mat than flooring. Found it hard to put together without extra hands to support and hold while screwing pieces together.

so far so good
We hired a task rabbit to build for us. It took hin about 6 hours and he said ut was ine if the easier ones. Its a little flimsy but i think it will hold us for awhile. Ours is in a nook with a gate on 2 sides and our home on the other. So im not worried about wind. Very spacious. The walls are similiar to gator board. It looked more solid in the photos

Plastic shed
This was very intuitive to complete, took me and my wife over 6hrs to put together!! The walls are like plastic cardboard. Overpriced! Someone can easily kick the walls in, if i could take it back apart i would return it!! Door wouldn't close after build, one side of roof panels don't slide up to proper placement. I had to make adjustments in order to alline the door to close. Aluminum framing is nice.

Waste of time and money
Do not buy this shed, the material is paper thin plastic and sheet metal. I paid my contractor to put it together, all for it to fall apart after the first rain storm. The sheet metal ripped from the screws. Then I had to take the rest apart for homedepot to come back and pick it up. Awful!!

Love it
It was my first DIY purchase of this scale, and happy to say it was a pleasant experience.
lovely look and excellent quality.
Shed's wall material can seem a bit flimsy at first, as other mentioned in their reviews, but after assembled, its very sturdy & solid.
I also suggest reading about the polycarbonate advantages as i did to get acquainted with the material and for this extra assurance feel.
