Customer Reviews for Handy Home Products Montana Do-It-Yourself 8 ft. x 10 ft. Barn style Backyard Wood Storage Shed with Smartside Siding (80 sq. ft.)

It was a hard piece to put together & Many of the precut pieces were cut short . But over all we like it.

Nice shed. Plenty of room inside for storage of deck and pool items. Installation was done in a day and installer was courteous and professional.

On time, efficient and quality work!

They guy was very friendly n respectable did a great job n a timely manner

I have had my shed now for 2 weeks and thoroughly enjoy it. My new wood storage shed with autumn brown shingles is exactly as I had hoped that it would be. The shingles match the ones on my home and the color of the shed matches the brick and trim on my home. The loft is perfect for items that I don't use often and gets them out of the way so I have more space in the lower portion of the shed. This size shed was needed by me because my older shed was smaller and did not allow me to store my lawn mower, bicycle, and wheel barrow in it. I now have more room in my home without having to store my lawn mower, bicycle, and wheel barrow in it.

Happy with the shed and the installer was great. Only one problem, which is why only 4 stars, the kit came with one bundle of shingles a different color than the rest. Luckily the installer found a way to make a pattern on the roof line that makes it not look so bad.

Installers were professional. Shed looks amazing!

exceeded my expectations

The builder was very nice, and did an outstanding job, especially since it was very cold that day, and he was outside for 12/13 hours! He really did a great job and if the need comes to ever order a shed, or refer someone I know that needs to order a shed, 10/10 would recommend!

Best way to have a shed installed!

Great product for the cost.. local installer did a nice job.

Installer had never done this model. He used nail gun instead of screws supplied by manufacture. Had a lot of misses and split wood. Tolerance were out in some areas 1/2 inch. The hasp he installed was not adjusted, therefore the right door hung out ( did not fully close). Some of the cut wood pieces did not meet, just hanging in space. Makes me wonder ho long it will last before I have to reinforce those areas! Be prepared to use a lot of caulk! Installer said he would come back and paint for a reasonable price but, was a no show. It looks nice but, I wonder knowing shortcuts were taken.

Great shed for my needs. The installer did a great job!

very disappointed. The order was one week late. I hired someone to be there when order arrives. They never contacted me to inform me that the order will arrive a week later. On that day the help couldn't be there. I had to delay my vacation plan by one day also. Then when the help came on Saturday, he said that only half the order was shipped. The delivery men never gave me a copy of the delivery receipt and I didn't realized it until the helper asked me for it. Now I have to battle with them. What a disappointment.

Installer was on time, courteous and obviously very experienced. He did an excellent job.

Very poor prefab cuts. Some to long, to short. Very bad angle cuts that do not match up to the corresponding cut. I had to do much more fabrication that I had wanted to. Overall the shed is up and standing. Not sure if I would recommend this brand to anyone.

I love my shed! It was very easy to put together, looks great and very sturdy. It is tall enough to add additional storage shelf higher up. We put it on a wood floor. All the wood was primed, so it would did not have to be painted. The trim was a nice tan color, and we left it unpainted. And all the pieces were cut making it easy to put together. It did not come this the roofing material, we also put a vent in the roof. My husband who is not very handy put it together. I believe that there were two partial small parts of wood that were missing, it didn't take much to compensate for them. For the price, I felt it was an exceptional shed. Wood is an upkeep so we would recommend, in the future putting a coat of paint on it. We have had it two months, it is really roomy. It fits in with our decor of the farm. They also delivered it right to the house! **I am not sure why the ratings from other people are so low....I am very picky, and it succeeded all of my expectations.

I HAVE NOT YET BUILT THIS BARN. I AM STILL TRYING TO SORT THROUGH WARPED LUMBER AND FIGURING OUT WHICH PARTS ARE MISSING! 2X3 WALL SUPPORTS? REALLY? THIS IS A VERY CHEAPLY MADE BARN. I SHOULD HAVE STAYED WITH THE TUFF SHED PRODUCTS THAT I ALREADY HAVE! THE ONLY THING THAT PULLED ME IN WAS THE PRICE.

The pre cut timber was cut inaccurately. Example: 8 pcs of 2x3 that were suppose to be all sane size differed in size as much as 1/2”.

It was delivered in a timely manner and the man who assembled it, did a fantastic job! The building is perfect and far more sturdy than I thought it would be. Overall, this has been a fantastic purchase.

Was told it would be sealed and weatherproof but when its not chaulked on any joint thats impossible.

It took 2 tries to get the Montana shed to me without damage. Then a lot of the 2x3 were twisted and cut at weird angles and some weren’t cut at the right length(short). So to answer your question NO IT DID NOT MEET MY EXPECTATIONS! Will probably try Lowe’s for my next shed!

Once I was able to actually talk to the builder company, I was able to get questions clarified and my requests agreed to. While this communication was not forwarded to my actual contractor, it was worked out. Constructed quickly and smoothly. Very nice result.

Took an entire day to build with only 1 guy sent and have a hole where the window is to go, was told it will take several weeks as it needed to be ordered.......it didn't come complete, not happy to have a hole for "several weeks" where the window goes - that is part of the product.....

The advertising of this product is very frustrating. The trim does not come treated or primed. The shed is great otherwise. Just know that you will have to prime the exterior trim once your shed is built.

A little disappointed because the picture shown of the interior of the shed clearly showed a workbench inside and the installer said it did not have one. Other than that, no complaints.

It’s a great shed. After caulking and painting, it looks really good. I was a little bummed that the installer used a nail gun instead of the supplied bag of screws. He got it very level and did a pretty clean install. I just feel that it would have a much longer lifespan if it was screwed together.

Don, the builder, was excellent, beyond expectations.I believe he is probably your best employee, and in my opinion, I am guessing he is not payed to match his skills and abilities.You need to look into that. The shed is what I expected, the builder went far beyond expectations.

I bought the cheapest shed I could find. You get what you pay for. It doesn't come with a floor, you definitely need one and the extra floor joists. The directions were difficult to follow at times. It will work for the purpose intended
