Decent size, great price
Assembly wasn't too complex, though it did seem a tad redundant and confusing with some of the diagrams and parts labeling. Overall pleased with the outcome.

Assembly instructions were a little difficult to understand. Made some minor mistakes that cost time at the end. Overall not catastrophic. Make sure surface is level before assembly.

Well worth the price after renting a storage unit. I purchased this on the 24 month interest free and made the same payment as I was for my unit and it was paid off before interest kicked in. It was a weekend project to put together but have had it for a couple years and no leak's and no problems. Would buy again if was in need of another one.

    Roof panels were warped and screws pop out. Side walls kept trying to cave in! We had to find our own braces to keep this from happening. None of the you tube videos were for this 8X20 shed, they were for real small sheds that didn’t have skylight so they did not help us! We just bought the shed last month and we left it in boxes until we started this month. You need to have videos that are for the shed you a person buys not a 3’X4’ shed! We followed step by step directions so that had nothing to do with our problems.

    Everything was good except the instruction identification of the screws and parts. The floor and side assembly was easy but the top assembly of the skylight center did not line up correctly. We had to make impromptu adjustments to tighten down the screws.

    I purchased the shed through Home-depot and had it delivered to the store. I knew they would load it on my trailer. The shed came in 4 large boxes that were very heavy. I unpacked all the boxes and they sent everything they were supposed to, that was a big plus. I made my base ahead of time so I could get started building right away but the shed is smaller than the 8 X 20 size they state so I had to cover the excess with aluminum strips. Check and they may say what the exact size is so you don't have the same problem. After reading some of the reviews I made sure my base was level which I'm sure made things go together easier. I would recommend that you take a utility knife and cut the excess flashing off each part before assembling it will help. They recommend having one or two helpers but you can do it yourself with the help of various size clamps and some ingenuity. I built the cap beside the shed and then used 5 nylon ratchet straps coming from the roof trusses down to the cap to lift it up to the peak of the roof. I would STRONGLY recommend reading the instruction manual before starting to build and then reading each section again when you are building. The biggest negatives I have with the shed are, I think each piece should be labeled with a sticker or some way and the other, (and this is why I only gave it 4 stars), Is the instruction manual could be a whole lot clearer with the insets bigger to show you how to put it together. I've only had it a few weeks and it looks good. It's been rained on several times and no leaks.

    Took 2 of us to install it 6 hours.
    So far it perfect for my stuff. Pretty sturdy. And it has nice curb appeal.

      It came 2 weeks late. There was a piece of wood poking through 3 sections of the bottom, that I covered with gorilla tape. The bags were well marked, but all of the screws were different number/letter combinations. on many of the sections you could download directions. But they were not much help, as it was bad camera angles i.e. on the door stops they had to go on a certain way, and the guy had his entire hand over the part so I couldn't tell. There was absolutely no part online or in the directions on how to install the door windows I guess you will just have to figure it out for yourself. Lastly, there appears to be about 8 small square cut outs on the outer edges of the inside floor. The kit came with only 2 caps so again I used gorilla tape to cover them until I can figure out what to do. Once it was all completed it looks pretty good

      Great Size
      This is the perfect size for what we needed for a garden shed. We did have to receive a city permit but quite simple. The instructions were very easy to follow with QR code videos if it did not make sense. Great shed!!!!

      Like a third car garage-roomy!
      I bought this shed after installing another 10 foot Lifetime shed in my backyard a couple of years ago. Much roomier. Plenty of headroom. It's more like a workshop. I put my table-saw, workbench, tools, shelving, yard and gardening implements and still have plenty of room to spare.

        Nice Solid Shed
        Walls could be more solid and skylight should be two pieces.

          Bought the 8' X 20' shed, half the cost of building a wood shed and it was easy to put together.

            8 FT. X 20 FT. PLASTIC STORAGE SHED
            Got this shed and put it together in 1 day with 3 other people. Could be less people but hey, the more the merrier. Don't know how this will hold up in sunny California since it was just purchased recently. Shed is put on top of concrete foundation. I lined the plastic floor with 1/2 ply woods for added support for my Edsal/Gorilla racks. An improvement I would suggest is to make the walls more sturdier with support columns.

            Hard to put together
            The product was difficult to put together due the holes being predrilled in the wrong places. The flooring does not go together as instructed, screws for floor were missing and floor panels were warped. Thankfully my spouse was able to make it work. I bought it because it was made in the USA, to support our economy. The plastic is very thin for the amount of money we spent on it, about $2,000.00. Won't know until it rains if it will leak or not. I am praying that it doesn't leak. That being said, it is large enough to hold our tools and gives our son a craft/work area of his own which is priceless. The predrilled holes and the thin material is what I have issue with. The cost for the poor quality is too high. My recommendation is to use thicker plastic and to reset the machines that predrill the holes, which should be checked periodically for accuracy. We have a Rubbermaid 7 x 7 and the floor decking is heavier duty and overall a better product.
