Assembly and quality issues
Assembly was not as easy as the YouTube video showed. I needed some clamps to align some of the side pieces to conform to assembly directions. I used low torque settings on my drill (under 10) some screws tightened, some didn't. Main issue was with the lid, the slots that are supposed to accept the front and hinge hardware were blocked preventing the hardware from sliding in, I was advised that this was a manufacturing mistake. New lid pieces were shipped, hope the slits are clear so I can complete assembly. A little disappointed with the fit and finish but overall, I think the product will function well for its intended use.

Product good; assembly horrible
Love the product after assembled. But the directions and product assembly don’t match. Had to drill open “slots” that were supposed to be available but had plastic in them. Took 2 people and 3 hours to put together with help of you tubers.

Great pool shed!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this shed early last month. We love it! My 17-year old assembled it without a hitch. It is a very nice looking and well constructed shed. It is located on our back concrete porch adjacent to the entrance to our pool deck. We use the shed for storing pool chemicals & cleaning equipment & supplies; kids floaties & toys; and life vests. It is perfect for our needs - looks good, big & spacious, easy opening lid & doors, and it can be easily locked to keep kids safely out.

Heavy duty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it about 3 weeks ago, seems very sturdy but some of the holes didn’t line up with the metal supports for the lid and some of the screws damaged the plastic so some of the screws are not tight as they should. The plastic where the screws go should have built in nuts and there should be machine screws instead of regular screws.

Love the size but the lid leaks
Just finished installing this on my cement patio. We had a rain shower last night the seam in the lid is allowing water to run inside the shed. Very disappointed.

Wobbly Storage shed
this unit goes together fairly easily after you get the floor to fit together... it works for the use intended... the only thing I don't care for is the front of the unit tilts in once you open the top.... very little to no support to keep the integrity of the box while loading or unloading the unit

One lid does not work
It was hard to assemble, but manageable. At the end, one of the lids did not have the pre drilled holes needed.

Terrible instructions
We have put many sheds together in our past. This one had such terrible assembly instructions! it was really difficult to understand which part needed to go where especially where it needed to be screwed. Will really doubt buying another lifetime storage shed ever.

Fine when done.
A lot of work to put together. Definitely need to watch their video, as assembly instructions were poor in certain areas.

Good bang for the buck, assembly quality is lacking
For the discounted price we picked this up for, it's great. The assembly instructions were easy, though it is not entirely easy to put together. Because it's plastic, not all the panels quite align, bolt holes don't match up. It's just all over the place. But thankfully because it's plastic, you're able to make it work anyway. Definitely a two person job. But I got it done solo and am happy to have it for storing all of our lawn equipment

Seems Sturdy
I just assembled this shed. It seems sturdy. A few tips: 1: Don't assemble in the sun. The panels begin to warp. (I'm concerned if this will happen with prolonged exposure after assembly, as I want it to keep critters from making a nest in winter). 2: It says 3 people needed. (Overkill, but 2 would be good). I did it myself. it took me 6 hours. 3: Instructions could be clearer. The "call out" diagrams are not really clear enough to see the details of placement. The video was somewhat helpful but on a phone, it is hard to see detail also. It is worth watching the 20 minute video before you start installation.
