Catrimown Backyard 6x4 Storage Sheds, Galvanized Steel Outdoor Storage Shed with Air Vent and Lockable Door, Gable Roof Patio Storage Shed & Outdoor Backyard Storage Brown

I am pleasantly surprised with the sturdiness of this after it is assembled! I was worried it would be flimsy but once you start putting the wall pieces on it really started to strengthen up. No pieces missing. Well labeled parts. Really good paper instructions and I found a video on YouTube. Comes in 2 boxes: one was 76 or 78lbs, and the other box was just over 100lbs. I'm 5'4" and put this together by myself in about 6 hours (but probably could have done it in 4hrs without breaks or neighbor chatting at me for an hour lol). Tips: I used and definitely recommend a power screw driver. Work on a level surface. Used gloves if you can (I hate them but I definitely got a couple scrapes and tiny stabs from sharp metal - not bad tho - honestly the screws were the sharpest buggers in the whole kit). Have a step-stool on hand to use for hard to reach places/panels. Pick a day that is Not windy. If you can get a helper, get one. If holes aren't lining up, something is off and a bit of leveling will do the trick.

I got the 8x6 model. Instructions were detailed and easy to understand. Follow every detail and you will be ok. Does take some time to assemble so plan your day accordingly. Nice and sturdy once fully assembled. Feels a little flemsy up to the point of putting on the roof panels. Would have gave 5 stars but several panels where dented but not bad extremally bad. And one corner hole was way off when installing the caps so I had to drill a new hole. Some other holes where slightly off but not bad enough to have to alter anything. Just have to finagle the piece to get it.

I'm 5'2, not very handy, and built this myself, just to give you an idea of the ease of it. It did take about 6 hours and a second person would have been helpful, but we do what we can! I had plenty of extra hardware at the end and the instructions were very clear. It does dent easily so be careful when taking your pieces out of the box. Once up though, it's much more sturdy. Tips: - use a screw gun and make sure it's fully charged. Mine died while I was putting on the roof pieces so I had to use a screwdriver for the rest - if your holes don't line up, you're either not on level ground or the piece is in the wrong spot. Sometimes I had to shift the whole shed to get the pieces to line up as I wasn't on level ground, other times, I was putting the wrong piece in the wrong spot - don't tighten your screws fully until they're all in - it was below freezing when I built this and I definitely don't recommend that haha, hard to hold the screws when you can't feel your fingers - the bottom part of the roofing doesn't have predrilled holes but it doesn't need it. It's very easy to get through that metal even with just a screwdriver - when putting the roof pieces on, put the ladder inside and move from the front to the back, then put the back panels on from the outside Again, if something isn't fitting, you may need to shift things or check and make sure you don't have the wrong piece or need to turn it around etc. I made a few mistakes because I wasn't looking carefully and rereading the instructions fixed it

The overall rating is a 3 for a few factors. The price to size ratio is good. The price to quality is average. The price to instructions is below average. This was also do to parts not aligning. It took roughly 4-5 hours to complete. The parts are VERY SHARP, wear thick gloves. The frame construction was simple but the sides and especially the roof was difficult. We realize the drills holes were not in line. Not a big deal, made our own, sealed the others but frustrating trying to follow. The material is also fragile in the sense that it dents VERY EASILY!!! Don’t put pressure on the sides or roof… I placed my drill roughly on the roof why aligning holes.. dent! I placed my hands on the side while picking some dropped screws, dent!!! You can push some of the dents out but the creases in the metal stays. Lastly, it’s been 3 weeks and we’ve had some rain, it’s already starting to rush on some parts. Most notably the hinges and screws. I put some wd40 on, let’s see..

It says it requires 2 people to set it up which absolutely would make it much easier but it is possible to set it up by yourself. I set mine up by myself in about 6 hours. Make sure you follow the directions and if the holes don't line up you've done something wrong. I made a couple mistakes where the holes weren't lining up and after studying the parts and the instructions, i figured out my mistake and corrected it. The instructions could be a little more detailed because, for example, one of my mistakes was putting the top support rail on backwards. The inductions don't say if the angel should be facing in or facing out. I put it facing out and i should have faced it in. It wasn't hard to fix but it was a lot of screws to remove and replace. Don't expect this shed to be as sturdy as a plastic/ vinyl shed. The panels will dent pretty easily. Also it's not the shed for someone that needs it to be secure, the screws for the latch are easily accessible from the outside. For the price compared to other shed options, I give this shed 5 stars
