Duramax TOP Shed 8 x 6 (4.79 m2) Metal Garden Storage Shed, Made of Hot-Dipped Galvanized Steel, Strong Reinforced Roof Structure, Maintenance-Free & Weatherproof Metal Garden Shed, Woodgrain

Great value for money. Nice looking and reasonably sturdy shed. Very happy.Assembly took a full day, quite fiddly. Especially difficult in gusty conditions and required a few sets of hands until all of the walls were erected. The shed needs to be square otherwise especially when you get to the roof you’ll notice quite a bit of misalignment. We had to twist the shed around and do some minor adjusting and then things fell into place though.Scratches easily, would have been nice to have got a tiny bit of touch up paint alongside.

Delivered promptly, no missing or damaged parts, easily assembled by a professional in about 3 hours, looks good and good quality for the price paid. So far so good, happy with the purchase.The only thing I do is missing the the option to buy a floor together with the shed. Nonetheless, the installer I had made a sturdy timber floor.

If you take your time and follow the instructions to the letter you will get this up in a day. Some reviews on here mention the pre drilled holes holes not lining up on the panels but I had no such problems, I think some of these problems may be the result of setting the base rails on an uneven foundation, as getting the panels to line up relies on the working surface being pretty level. One useful tip is to run a good bead of decent all weather exterior waterproof sealant under the base rails before fixing them in place to stop water from seeping underneathThe metal is pretty thin and has some sharp edges so a decent pair of gloves you can actually work in are a must. Once the ground rails were down the wall erection was pretty easy and went without a hitch. Attaching the roof panels is a bit of a faff as its a case of using a ladder and streching across the roof to screw them in place, I Really didnt fancy climbing on top of the half built shed. The roof apex pieces are flimsy and needed a bit of sealant added to where they bolt together to ensure a good tight leakproof fit. Would recommend you buy some better sealing tape for the roof as well (The supplied tape is quite thin).The real problems came when trying to get the sliding doors to run easily on the tracks as the design of this system and the door panels is a flimsy ropey affair that sticks really easily, I havent managed to get them to slide completly smoothly, despite numerous attempts that included cutting down the lenth of the side panel fixing screws that were catchin the inside of the doors (yes I used the right size screws).I will probably get some anchor bolts to hold it down in case of high winds as the shed is really not that heavy...Verdict: Metal is pretty flimsy and reading the numbers pressed into some of the assembly parts can be difficult. however with two people it does go together in a day and looks Ok for your effort. Wouldnt like to erect it in an exposed location. Lets see how long it will last.

The 2 men who put the metal shed together for me on a freezing cold windy day both stated it was the smoothest & easiest shed they've put up to date, liked the fact both doors had runner wheels & the instructions where easy to follow too. Looks great with the wood effect very nice my neighbour thought it was a wooden shed at first. Ha ha & my granddaughter has now evicted me & is squatting she has turned it into her own personal playhouse although I have bought it to keep my mobility scooter dry & safe & for other garden items that needed the storage space.The only issue which will need to be sorted asap is the build up of water on inside on the roof lots of condensation inside the shed water & electric scooters don't mix well, have been advised to use cans of expanding foam around the internal edges at the top which also to put insulation on the internal walls not really fire retardant which could potentially be an issue with insurance company if there's a fire. Apart from the condensation. Great looking wood effect metal shed. Definatley good value for money compared to the many other companies price definatley better all in all its good solid long-term storage investment glad I got it my granddaughter really loves it too. Thanks Duramax 10 X 8 Top shed wood effect

Probably take 2 folk a couple of days as there's so many screws to put together but if you follow the instructions its not too difficult and the finished shed is amazing.If you have the time I highly recommend.

Fairly easy to build and looks nice when built.The very top of the roof doesn't seem very waterproof.The panels are really thin and dent extremely easily. A couple of panels were already slightly dented on arrival.The shed depth is approximately 7.5ft rather than 8ft as advertised.The top roof support beam is made up of 4 parts but don’t fit into one another for a flush finish.£550 for a shed that seems made out of cheap materials.
