8 x 10 FT Outdoor Storage Shed Large Metal Tool Sheds, Heavy Duty Storage House with Sliding Doors with Air Vent for Backyard Patio Lawn to Store Bikes, Tools, Lawnmowers Grey

I put this shed together with lots of help from my girlfriend. We took our time and put it together over the weekend. We found that if we just slowed down and took our time that this shed really wasn't that difficult to put together. It's important to note that it does not come with a floor. I knew that ahead of time, so I purchased some treated lumber and built a floor/foundation for it. I included pictures of the shed after our first day and after we finished, as well as the wood floor/foundation I constructed (it's roughly 8'x8'). If you can build Ikea furniture or put together Lego constructs with just picture instructions, you'll do fine with this. Don't be stupid, if the holes don't line up, then it's either in the wrong spot, the wrong orientation, or you need to straighten out the frame a bit more. I found that last part to be true for putting on the roof panels. I didn't have the structure as square as I thought. The shed is lightweight, not heavy duty, but once it's together it's quite sturdy. The labels are correct, the instructions are not translated very well and the pictures can be confusing if you try to rush.

This shed took us a good 2 days to build. We took our sweet time between every step, bbq’d on the grill, and didn’t work too hard. So we never argued. You definitely need 2 people, maybe even a 3rd would be helpful. You definitely want to make sure you have a power drill and a good step stool or small ladder. I have no idea how people put theirs together in 2-4 hours but maybe don’t put that much pressure on yourself and you’ll be happier with your result. The only gripe I have with this shed is the instructions. They suuuuuck. IKEA instructions are better. If you know you know. Anyway… this is a fantastic shed that I know will last years to come. I plan on painting it. Oh another thing that is kinda good but kinda annoying, every single piece of metal is covered in plastic. You can leave it on of course, but it peels any time it gets scratched and the corners were peeling so I took the extra half hour/ hour to rip it all off that way when I’m ready to paint it all I have to do is.. paint it. Happy shedding!

This thing did take us 4 hours to put together & nearly cost us a divorce, but in the end we are happy with it. It definitely takes two people (preferably not a married couple if you want to save your marriage) to hold up panels or help with holding the bolts. It looks as if it’s going to be pretty sturdy and weatherproof. The only issues we had with assembling is when we got to the doors. The instructions were a little confusing and took a couple times of taking it apart and putting it back together. I would suggest planning on bolting it to the flooring or using heavy duty steaks to hold it down. A good wind gust could cause it to go flying if you don’t.
