I rarely write reviews about products I buy as the 98% of the time do exactly what they say they will, and it’s a problem free purchase.. So, onto to this purchase.. I do not buy anything without far too much research and procrastination, for some reason this purchase did not fall into that bracket. I’d been carrying out research into a Garden Shed for my elderly mother to relieve some of the strain on her greenhouse, and for whatever reason, bought this one without reading a single review! Had I read the entertaining reviews, I would not be writing this one! I’m a middle-aged chap who knows how to handle a set of ‘spanners’, read a set of instructions (and correct where required). I have an extensive collection of the afore mentioned ‘spanners’ and probably too many ‘Power Tools’ for one man alone. I had a buddy assisting who is likewise well skilled and equipped, a flat-pack shed stood no chance, it will be up in an hour including a tea-break! Previously mentioned elderly mother provided tea, biscuits, sandwiches and moral support when the will to live was lost. So, what went well? It was delivered on time, on the day stated and was left where my mother asked it to be left. The multiple layers of packaging tape had protected the contents admirably. Opening the two packages, was a breeze with a fresh blade in my trusty ‘Stanley Knife’. It is a nice colour green. Return collection was on time by the courier. A full refund was ultimately issued without too much effort. What didn’t go so well? The parts and individual panels are stamped and cut by machine, their edges are razor sharp (Two pairs of gloves are provided, they are not Cut-proof), I was bleeding in less than 10 minutes of opening the packages..fortunately 40+ years’ experience of ‘Spannering’ and Nursing meant there was multiple means to arrest the bleeding available! The parts are thin stamped metal with super sharp edges (no idea if they were steel as I didn’t determine that), I have seen thicker tin foil on tins of coffee, do not attempt to put this up in any sort of breeze, it will end in tears and bent/creased panels. Components/sections are broken down into far too many individual components all held together by tiny nuts and bolts that you have no hope of holding with the gloves provided or finding when you drop them on the ground. Presumably the parts breakdown is to minimise the packaging size, well done, it worked! The base is practically useless as it stands, you will need to add a floor to the shed or be constantly tripping over the support beams – that don’t support! The sides will go together without too much difficulty; however they will not be secure, and the bolts/nuts will require multiple applications of thread lock to keep them tight, or coat them with a two-part epoxy adhesive if you actually manage to get the shed assembled. The door framework/mechanism has been designed by an individual (possibly blind) who will never assemble his masterpiece or have to open the door! The roof, the parts that made up my roof were never going to fit on my shed without some major metalworking/cutting from my collection of spanners and power tools, it simply wasn’t the roof for my shed, the many bolt/screw holes not lining up were the first clue as to the final outcome of the day. So, 8 hours (16 man/person/woman hours) later we had a shed base, four walls, a door aperture with non-functioning runner-track and two assembled doors (even the handles won’t fit the doors!) A roof had been built in numerous configurations in an attempt to make it fit..it didn’t. Decision was taken to disassemble the following morning and return, or if it didn’t survive the breeze that night, roll it up and take to the local recycling plant. Morning came, it was still standing..sort off, it came down a lot faster than it went up and the process of repacking and return commenced. The initial return request was accepted without query instantly by Amazon/Vendor – maybe Amazon knew what we had purchased? The first Email (? Automated) from the Seller didn’t ask why I wanted to return the item; they stated that it would take 5 days to arrange the collection and for me to provide them with a suitable collection date. A date was provided. The next Email which looked to be from a real person then asked why I wanted to return, I referred them to the original Email when they/It agreed to a collection date, giving them no opportunity to start a discussion about the return. Next Email asked if there was anything they could do to resolve the issue, a partial refund/discount, further parts supplied, or if I wanted a full refund. A full refund was requested again, they replied stating it would take 10 working days to process, I gave them 10 working days and asked where the refund was at that point, a further Email appeared stating it had been issued and would take 2-3 business days to appear in my account – it did. As others have noted in the reviews, refunds can take some time, the plan here is do not engage in conversation, be polite but firm, ask for a refund and stick to it. Some thoughts on the shed – It’s crap, save your money and buy a wooden one you can repair in the future. I doubt it would last a typical British winter, surviving the Autumn in some parts of the UK might be a challenge for it! It certainly would not survive a moderate storm unless in a very sheltered spot (inside a garage perhaps?). Additional bracing would be required for this to last any length of time. There are gaps between the roof panels (even if you get it to fit), the roof would act as a lovely sail in the wind, you could share the shed with your neighbours during the winter.. It’s certainly not 100% waterproof without some major sealant work (see other reviews). The claimed ventilation openings to prevent ‘mold (sic), condensation and unpleasant odours’ are certainly not required, there are enough gaps in the panels, roof structures to provide ‘ventilation’, it’s a metal shed, no amount of ventilation is going to prevent condensation. Summary. If you want a nice green shed that will go together well and last a few years..it’s not this one. 1 Star as I was refunded 100%

It’s a nice size shed for one (I live alone). While building we had to watch a couple of videos as the instructions were not very clear. I would advise building the outer frame first then putting the middle frame in, and then carry on as per instructions. But make sure they are the right way (check diagram three times as the diagram changes too) as this effects the corners of the outer bits. Also there was a lot of “screw in the screws” then You have to undo them for the next bit to go on. Especially the top of the door. Read all steps first and make a plan as you could be there hours un doing what you have done to fix something else to it. The metal can be a little flimsy while building but once all built seems very sturdy. It took 2 of us 6 hours to build, we are not professionals but some sections are very fiddly and frustrating. I advise to use a drill, and you need a small spanner also for the nuts. This comes with no tools to assembling. Pleased with the end result, now need to get a floor for it.

The only problem with this shed, bearing in mind, the build is not complete, the instructions are absolutely terrible. They do not show all the steps and the ones they do show are not that clear (and that is not because the printing of the instructions is awful), it is because they do not describe what to do. If you use the hols for the outside frame of the base then the front is 25mm shorter than the back, so you need to drill new holes to make it square. The frame build around the top of the walls are not described properly, so you have to guess. hopefully I have guessed correctly. However, I have the walls up and top frame fitted and it seems quite rigid. I now have to tackle the roof and the instructions continue to be confusing and not clear. Wish me luck. One last thing, wear your glove when handling the panels, they may not be cut proof, but they would have prevented the cut across mu hand.

Its quality is the exact same as you see on other sites, don’t be put off because it’s a bit cheaper. the instructions are OK. But some steps require you to take something off you’ve put on to get it to fit (or if it does say it’s not very clear), which is a bit annoying. Took me about 9 hours to build, the base is very flimsy at the beginning, and so is the first couple panels which are very thin sheet metal, but don’t be disheartened, when it’s up and built it’s pretty solid and for the size and price I paid for it I’m very happy with it so far.

I purchased the GARDEBRUK® Medium 5x3' Metal Tool Shed on 14th April and received it just four days later—very fast delivery. It appears the item shipped from Germany, which made the quick arrival even more impressive. After ordering, I made the mistake of reading the reviews. Many were negative, so I kept my expectations low. That said, the package arrived in fairly good condition, considering the distance and weight. Be warned—the metal panels are sharp. The listing includes gloves, and you’ll want to use them. I didn’t, and ended up with several small cuts on my hands. Although the listing recommends two people for the build, I managed it alone. That said, it took me about three days, working in stages. A major time sink was peeling cling film off some (but not all) panels. The inconsistency made it more frustrating. The assembly instructions were disappointing. The images were small and unclear. The online PDF was no better. I tried the manufacturer’s YouTube video, but the resolution was poor and didn’t help much. Another issue: pre-drilled holes often didn’t align. I had to re-drill many of them, which slowed things down a lot. Despite the alignment issues and some buckling in places, the shed looks decent once fully assembled. The size suits my needs, and while the overall unit is quite heavy, each part is manageable on its own once unpacked. Build quality leaves a lot to be desired, but I only paid £118.95. For that price, it's hard to complain too much. You get what you pay for. If you're looking for a cheap storage solution and don't mind a tough build, this might be worth considering—but be prepared for a long, fiddly job.

Awesome shed. Takes time to build, around 6 hours 2 people. Instructions are a bit difficult to follow, in some bits, but manageable. I just need to buy the floor now. Lots of space, worth the money.

Do not buy this product! Shed This is the worst product I ever bought from Amazon! Do not waste your time and money. This product has very poor quality. It is very flimsy, it bends very easily and it gets dented very easy. The parts doesn't line up, and the quality is so poor that is getting dented and bending during installation. It takes long time to put together, for a product that will not be strong for it's purpose. The size is also misleading, it shows that is 90cm wide, however this is only the roof the actual width of the shed is around 70cm.

Très bon produit pour le prix vraiment correct. Je confirme qu’il faut être min 2 pour le faire et prendre sont temps pour suivre les étapes correctement. Je suis très satisfait, encore une fois, par rapport au prix. S’il y avait une chose à revoir un peu, mais le guide d’installation qui pourrait être un peu plus précis et étoffé ( quelques étapes non expliqué par exemple, ou comme savoir quelle pièce mettre devant, ou derrière l’autre,etc… ) mais avec de la patience, ça fonctionne

Ordinato per essere collocato nel giardino dopo una lunga ricerca. La struttura è solida, ha passato un inverno e devo dire che nonostante le forti piogge e il vento ha resistito molto bene. Piccola nota negativa, ha necessitato di un'ulteriore chiusura perchè personalmente non mi faceva impazzire il come si chiude. Per il resto non ci si può lamentare col prezzo Armarsi di pazienza per il montaggio

Fácil de montar, instrucciones muy claras y todos los elementos bien etiquetados. Entre dos personas sin experiencia previa en montar casetas tardamos unas 5-6 horas entre dos tardes. Imprescindible comprar una buena base de madera para el suelo, en mi caso MDM hidrófugo de 1,6 mm.

Agréablement surprise de la qualité ! Le montage ne fut pas simple, nous étions trois et cela nous a pris plusieurs soirées après le travail. Lors du montage la qualité m'a fait peur, les tôles sont très fines mais une fois monté le tout est solide. Je l'ai depuis deux mois et nous avons eu une tempête (rafales à 100km/h) et beaucoup d'orages, il n'a pas bougé. Le seul point qui me fait peur c'est sont les portes, elles n'ont pas l'air solides.

3 Pakete an Drei Tagen geliefert, hierfür kann allerdings niemand etwas. Aufbauanleitung ist in Ordnung und das Gerätehaus lässt sich unkompliziert aufbauen. Zwischendurch ist es hilfreich zu zweit zu sein aber lässt sich ebenfalls auch alleine bewerkstelligen. Preis Leistung ist jedenfalls top. Ich habe auf den Metallrahmen noch einen OSB-plattenboden aufgebracht und somit ein Top Gerätehaus zu fairen Preis erhalten. Teile sind sehr gut beschriftet und die Pakete waren alle vollständig.
