Patiowell 6x4 FT Outdoor Storage Shed, Metal Outdoor Sheds with Vents&Lock | Water-Resistance Garden Shed of Galvanized Steel for Lawn, Patio, Backyard Garden Tools, Bikes, Gray

So. I got the 6x4 shed, and I was almost dreading recieveing it due to the negative reviews on here, but I needed some extra storage and didn't have a huge budget for it. Keeping the price in mind- I am absolutely thrilled with it. The packaging was really sturdy, and was also extremely heavy. Without a helper, you many struggle to get it where you need it for assembly, but once you start pulling the pieces out they are rather light. I used a couple pallets and some old scrap plywood as my base, placed on my already level concrete patio slab. You start with the bottom frame and then move on to the four corner pieces. It was slightly breezy, so I did need to throw a few screws to connect the bottom frame to my base just so it didn't blow over. Wall assembly was a breeze. I did most of the assembly solo, except for a few times where I needed an extra hand holding a piece in place while I got a few screws in it, like the top frame. I'm pretty pleased with the quality, I did need to bend a few pieces back in place on the corners and there are a few dents and dings, but it was $175. There are some little gaps and eventually I'll get some foam or something to fill them, but again, $175. The roof and the doors were a little annoying, just getting the pilot holes lined up and what not, but....$175. Definitely wouldn't bother with peeling the protective film off each piece, it would take ages, and really once it's assembled and you're standing back looking at the little building you just slapped up, you don't notice. I did this mainly solo in about four hours. If you have trouble lifting things, or holding things above your head you may want a helper. At the end of the day you get what you pay for- don't expect a small metal shed that costs less than $200 to come together like a $1000 shed would. If you have a small budget and just need an enclosed space for storage this is a great option.

Challenging to assemble, directions are not always clear to decipher but took me all day to erect. Went together well enough though, looks great & wife is happy with it. I like it because it was about half or more than the plastic ones & with it being metal it should last a lot longer. Some of the metal pieces were a little bent in shipping but was easy to straighten them out. Works very nice for our purposes.

Pay extremely close attention to instruction booklet. Look where certain holes are, and on what side they are on, same with notches on certain pieces to make sure orientation of piece is correct. By paying very close attention, all holes lined up for us very well. A couple were slightly off, but that's because the base had gotten a little out of square while we were assembling. Use drill on very low setting to reduce chance of stripping screwholes. For roof screws, I went back and replaced all screws that are exposed to rain with self piercing screws #10x1" size with the rubber washers that are designed for metal roof. I used the #10 size because they were very less likely to strip out while tightening down to lightly compress rubber washer. Any size smaller diameter than #10 will most likely strip out while tightening to a watertight seal. You can get by just fine using 3/4" long screws. I only used the 1" because tractor supply was out of the #10x3/4". Make sure the metal base is perfectly square before attaching any sidewalls. If out of square, you won't realize it until you're almost finished screwing one full side of wall together. Once base is square, I recommend screwing or bolting to floor or slab or whatever type of foundation/floor you are using so that it won't come out of square while assembling. We only had very minor dents on some pieces of metal, but nothing that we couldn't push out with thumb or bend back easily with pliers on a multitool. The packages are handled multiple times during shipping, and I'm sure that's why some pieces had dents and bends. I don't blame the manufacturer for that. The 2 or 3 hours that the book says will take to put shed together might be true for people that do it for a living and know the order of parts by memory and have a rhythm down for install, but for us it took around 12 hours to take our time and make sure everything was correct so we wouldn't have to go back and redo anything later. That time includes the unboxing time and laying all of the pieces out with all same numbered parts together to make finding the parts quicker and easier. We sealed the outside of the base that makes contact with the floor with 100% silicone and used screws through base to floor every 1 foot on the outside. Also sealed corners of base with silicone and all 4 sides of each air vent on the inside of the shed. After sealing and replacing all roof screws with the #10x1" self piercing screws with rubber washer, we have had zero leaks. There was a small gap in between the 2 doors, but with some hinge adjustment and some very small bending of door frame piece, the gap is closed. The plastic that comes on each piece of metal is not worth the time to try to remove. We left the plastic on and you can't really even tell that there's a layer of plastic on the outside. Looks very good. Enjoyed putting this shed together and for the money, I think it's worth it. I did have a helper, one is definitely needed for a shed of this size (8x10). 4 start rating is only because of the small diameter screws for the roof. The nylon/plastic washers for the screws that came in the bag don't seal well due to the fact that if you slightly over tighten the screws, they will strip the metal and then have no compression to seal hole. Screws that are a bigger diameter would work much better to come from the factory in the box. They do fine for the sidewalls, but need bigger diameter with rubber washer for roof.

I ordered this tool shed thinking it was a vinyl tool shed as that's how I searched on the product. It arrived as a metal tool shed and I chose not to return it because it fit the space requirements I had. That was a mistake. After 14 hours I have finally finished putting this together. The instructions are only drawing and there are so many nuances in getting this together right it's hard to interpret the drawings to the actual construction. Furthermore it is poorly made, I struggled getting holes to a line up and panels to fit. The material is extremely thin and lightweight and some of them bent during construction leaving ugly creases in the panel. In hindsight I should have never accepted this shed as a substitute and got what I really started out to buy which was a vinyl tool shed. Definitely not worth the money.

"To start with, the very small fasteners are VERY combursome to work with, with my beat-up, old caperpenters' fingers and hands, I spent half the time it took in just fighting with them; I cannot say I'm bristling with confidence in their capacity to hold the whole unit together in the winds we get here. The steel itself is thinner that most expect, while it looks like standard steel roofing/siding - it's significantly thinner - the specs are clear on this, but w/out a frame of reference, most aren't going to connect the 2 point. The instructions are pretty good, mostly pictorial, but there are a few things hat could be clearer - which way the base corners and siding seams/joints overlap - and why it's important to include; if one doesn't lap the wall corners according to the site's position relative to winter storms, and even dust, then it very easily could blow in through under/overlapping sections. Including how to make sure the base is square should also be in the instructions, it isn't something most/many folks are going to automatically pick up on; even with the base's corners properly screwed together it can, likely will be, out of square by 1/4" or a bit more - and if it isn't square - the pre-cut/drilled holes and sections won't align right. The siding overlaps are pretty poor as to fitting tightly, caulking will be a minimum, fastening them down with self-tapping screws as well, is what it'll take here - and it wouldn't have mattered the direction of the overlap, it is just as loose either way. Lastly, a number of the pre-drilled holes are misaligned, and some of the ones in the siding were split/blow-outs, making for potential weak points. especially ones in the corners. The base needs for holes to screw it down properly, just the corners - per manufacture - will not likely be enough, I know for certain these mountain winds are well beyond what just corner screws could hold. I'm also going to add a pair of ratchet straps to the entire construction, I built a proper floor box for it with enough meat to hold some eye-bolts as anchor points, the winds are only going to get stronger as the climate collapse worsens and this is already sketchy - I can see the whole unit being ripped off of the base frame and scattered as mega-shrapnel. It's one me to make sure that can't happen." Quote from the man I had to hire to put this shed together. It's almost disposable! I don't expect it to last more than a year at best!

If you’re looking for something that will just keep the rain off this is perfect. It is not a strong item but once assembled will do it job. It did take two people to assemble it and a little bit longer than they state. It didn’t help that if you don’t put the panels in the exact orientation, you have to take them off to reuse them. Same with the braces so watch the directions very closely. We did not put a floor underneath it but did attach it to the fence post around it so it wouldn’t move serves its purpose well in our garden.

Actually very easy to put together. Not step by step clearly worded instructions, But you'd have to be not paying attention to get more than one thing wrong. Everything lined up pretty easily. Some holes were a little less lined up but some pushing and tugging goes a long way. There was slight damge to the corners of multiple pieces but some pliers straightened them out well enough. Not enough damage to drop a star. Don't go too hard on tightening the screws or you'll strip out the aluminum. If you do happen to have a screw that doesnt seem to tighten just right some flex seal spray meets the water tight requirement if you so need it. I actually flex sealed every screw because I'm just that kinda person. Very great shed. Very easily moved so I would anchor it down if you live somewhere with high winds.

I’m giving this 4 stars because their customer service is good and because price was good. Some pieces came with dents but not a deal breaker. However, this thing is VERY difficult to assemble. Material is flimsy and you absolutely need 2 people for assembly. I am in the trade field and pretty good assembling stuff. This took me and my wife almost 2 days to finish. We did take our time but it was definitely very tedious. Lots and lots of hardware. Overall we’re happy with it because it looks nice and we cleared our garage of lots of mess. We also got some concrete tiles at Lowe’s and anchored it to that. It’s holding really nice.
