Duramax DuraMate 8 x 6 (3.90 m2) Plastic Garden Storage Shed with Metal Foundation Kit, Skylight kit included, Strong Metal Roof Structure, Maintenance-Free Vinyl Shed - Ivory

I liked the neutral colour and the flooring. It took 2 men half a day to erect. They were not too happy with the roof fixings as we get very high winds but apart from that an excellent product at a very competitive price

Good shed bit hard to assemble needs two people but ok when erected best to use sealant every where .l to weather proof. Ideal for side of house with a 2m gap.

So from the delivery I was a bit miffed approximately 85 kilos in a damaged cardboard box with no strapping and in all that 85 kilos 3 strios of clear plastic and 2 tiny pieces of polystyrene about 2 x 2 inches.Reading through the instructions was the wrong thing to do it looks way too complicated best thing is just get on with it lol.Once I started assembly it was pretty easy going HOWEVER not a job for one person in the slightest of breezes you need 2 more pairs of hands until you start the roof section.So in all it took me around 2 hours to complete not including the floor (see below) once I got it fully erect I then decided to move it this involved moving into a space approximately 4 inches bigger than the shed nightmare (see picture) I removed the roof and split the shed into 2 pieces thus process took me and 2 others literary 5 minutes to break it down move it and re-assemble.GOOD AND BAD POINTS..Good points....it looks very nice when finished, it is simple to erect, it is fairly sturdy (without anchorage) the roof is fairly waterproof (without silicon) Value for money I think that is on a moderate level if you look deeply into it there is a lot of work and materials that could justify the phrase"Value for money" however regardless of what we buy it is always expensive lol.Bad points......The packaging is terrible.You need to buy additional materials to complete the shed there is no base at all just a frame that needs attention before you can use it either wooden or concrete base you also need silicon and I had to make adjustments to the front and rear panels to get the final plug in place however this was simple.The door was damaged but again I have sorted this probably due to the lack of packing.The roof is held in place by a few screws (hence easy to remove)You Definitely need to wear hand protection the edges of the panel are sharp.Summary.......4 out of 5 stars for the shed in general if your location is in a windy area be sure to anchor the shed down and anchor the roof better as you need to purchase silicon use it where the panel's overlap it won't hurt. You need access to 360°s of the shed for construction but as I did you can move it after.Finally It is NOT like Ketler Sheds and storage solutions don't be fooled by titles

After we assembled the shed. It looked fabulous. That evening it rained through the night. The following morning I went into the shed all my things were soaking wet. The water was just dripping off the ceiling and down the walls. Had no choice but send it back. Not fit for purpose.

Was difficult to assembly as some screw holes were out of line with each other. On completion the only floor was the metal base holding it together, unlike the Amazon photo showing an actual floor ! The shed is quite flimsy particularly the doors. They're are small drips from the roof when it rains so things inside in some parts still need a cover over them.

Where to start? This was the toughest flat pack I ever build. I was just the handy man and my poor wife went through every single pages, identifyed parts and being an engineer. My poor kids holding shed wall for more than 2 hours. It was full of fun. Had a great family day. Good team work.Now come to the shed. Definitely need two people. There shouldn't be any wind at all. In the beginning you may think it's not going to work. But slowly you will realise it is getting stonger and stronger. Flat surface is must. You cannot move much once the construction completed. So try to make this close to where you want this. I am little worried about the Base. Hopefully it won't be rusted too quickly. They made this product with high standards. Hats off

The instructions were fairly easy to follow. A couple of parts took a while to dicypher but not too bad. When it arrived we were worried it wasn't all there but it was very well packed. Also it looks a lot stronger when it is complete than when you take the bits out of the box. Very smart looking shed. If there is a minus it's that although it comes with a foundation base it doesn't come with a floor. If you follow the instructions to the letter you will have no problems.

Flat pack box was surprisingly small and I thought maybe something would be missing, but all parts were there. All parts were labelled so I couldn’t go wrong. Although, you do need some DIY common sense to understand how some bits fit together. As I began the assembly, it felt very flimsy, but once the the bars on top of the walls were fitted it started to feel sturdy, then with the roof on it was solid. Happy with the purchase, the only negative - I thought the price was higher than others, but due to the unique size I wanted (10x5ft), this was the only good plastic shed I found.
