Darwin 4x6

Grabbed this while it was on sale (£299) to replace a slightly larger timber shed that was incorrectly installed by the previous owners of the house and starting to rot. This arrived in a single box which is quite bulky and heavy to move, Amazon’s delivery was fantastic however leaving it in the garden even though no one was there to instruct them. The box did have everything included, a couple of panels did have some scuffs on them but I wasn’t going to go through the hassle of asking for them to be replaced, just tried to use them for panels facing the fence. Assembly was relatively simple, took around 5 hours on my own (Would be a lot easier with an extra pair of hands, but I was rushing to get it built before expected rain so did it on my own). The instructions are relatively straightforward and easy to follow, just take your time and read them again if you get stuck. The most difficult parts to assemble are: 1- getting the second roof panel of each side to slide into position without either breaking the panel itself, or your own fingers, it takes a lot of patience and do try to avoid hitting the ends too hard with a mallet, you will ‘crush’ them if not careful. 2- Screwing the door hinges into the metal frame, this was incredibly frustrating and took too much time for no good reason, the pre-drilled holes are simply drilled too small for the screws provided, using the 3 mm drill bit didn’t make them any better, and using the 4 mm made them too big, so it was between using plastic plugs to get the screws to bite, or wait for the next day to grab some different screws, I went for the plastic plugs and the doors are still standing. The shed looks good once assembled, the doors did line-up with little effort (Wouldn’t have any issues on a solid base, my advice? Do NOT install PVC sheds on a gravel base, unless the base is guaranteed to be 110% level), and make sure you anchor it well, it is super light and will most likely be blown away if the wind was at the right speed and direction. The shed should be a lot easier to maintain compared to timber ones, but the compromise is the stability of it, it is very risky to lean anything on the walls like I did in the old timber one, you can literally feel the whole structure leaning when you do that (Even a lightweight bike on the wall, I soon took it off and had the bike rest on a heavy box in the shed instead). It has so far proved to be watertight after a few torrential downpours, weather is also turning a bit Autumnal and Winter will test its frost proofing capabilities. I am generally happy with it and would recommend it, will also update if encountered any issues in the future, otherwise please assume all is well.

I cannot mark this shed down as the finished build is solid and does the job, Keter is always a brand that you can trust with outdoor storage. I built it on my own which did make the roof a challenge but that is my fault for not asking for help..... My only issue is the locking area, the handle unit is very low profile so when you go to fit a padlock the place to feed the shank is very narrow and only thin padlocks fit well. I had a slightly fatter combination padlock which essentially got wedged when put on the door, making unlocking more difficult, however buying a thinner padlock resolved this issue. Later I actually riveted a rasp lock on the door latch unit which has allowed me to use any padlock so crisis averted. I cannot mark the shed down as it is just my choice of padlock that created the issue.

Great shed that is a handy alternative to a wooden shed. I have originally ordered a wooden one but as I am renting and seeing the quality of the sheds for the price these days I was put off and chose a plastic shed instead. I did my pre reading on the difficulty of assembly and was concerned by a couple of reviews here, but honestly, I don’t know how they could get it so wrong. It had clear instructions that were easy to follow. I will say that not all panels are marked but it’s easy enough to figure out what is what. It did take a while to build however, at around 4 hours. The roof is the most difficult part and why I have knocked a star off. Unfortunately, the instructions tell you to bend panels to get them back into a slot when fitting the roof. Even with plastic shims I have used on fitting car interiors, we did damage a couple of the panels doing as instructed. I’m not even particularly strong so that was disappointing. Otherwise the plastic quality is fantastic and much better than some of the other thinner walled solutions out there. The doors did rub initially but seem to be lined up perfectly now. Finally there is no water ingress in the last month since purchasing (Feb 2026) which is probably as bad as it is going to get for the shed. Finally, it was packaged well and a bespoke haulage firm delivered it and placed it in my back garden. At 60kg you wouldn’t want to be doing that yourself! Very happy with it!

Great shed and really easy to assemble. The hardest part was levelling the ground after that the shed was up in a couple of hours. Really fair price too.

As it’s plastic, (which seems good quality) you never need to treat it or paint it and obviously waterproof. The colour is fine too. No leaks, instructions very clear, perfect size and great value for money, what more do you want! Only down side would be you can’t swap the doors around to have it open up on the other side first. But that’s not really a deal breaker.

Save your time and money. This is an awful product. The slot together sections are awful, didn’t align with the screw area! Flimsy plastic in areas that should be strong. Broken areas. The roof is a joke, how any one is expected to bend thick plastic in to the slots is beyond me. The build instructions were strange, missing labels etc expecting you to be on a ladder whilst bending plastic in to grooves. One side of the roof will not go in due to thickness and is ridged, it needs to bend the opposite way. The base section isn't screwed in! Honestly I have never been so angry in my life, an entire day wasted calling Amazon and Keter, asking for replacement parts to then find the roof has gaps on edges which would allow water in. So it’s going in the bin. Amazon were good and refunded, however I now have to dispose of this myself. I have built many items in my time, I enjoy it! This however was a waste of time and money. AVOID AT ALL COST!

Good little shed, I’ve put a few of these up over the years, you need two people just when you put the panels in and slide the roof on. Just make sure it is on a solid flat base, especially when you are putting it together. Delivered on time and well priced.

Was weary of buying a plastic shed but I can't fault it! The build was slightly tricky. While the instructions were clear, fitting all pieces together and ensuring that everything was aligned was the most time consuming part of building the shed. However, since building over 6 months ago, I have not had a single fault with it. It has remained sturdy and waterproof. I am extremely happy with my purchase and would definitely consider buying another Keter shed if I wanted to upgrade in size.
