Customer Reviews for Handy Home Products Garden Shed Do-it Yourself 6 ft. x 8 ft. Wood Storage Shed with Galvanized Metal Roof and transom windows (48 sq. ft.)

We are pleased with the results. Prior experience with framing and construction is a plus - a few of the pieces had twist that I had to work around. It took me approximately four six-hour days to build it. Instructions, overall, were pretty good. There was one illustration where a roof fascia support met the corner of the siding that was a bit unclear. However, I was able to remove a bit of material to adapt it. I needed a second pair of hands for raising the walls - the rest I was able to do independently.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shed is so nice and high quality. I will buy another one in future for my dad’s house.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not a bad kit, main issue is that some of the boards were warped making it hard to square up the walls.

Overall a good purchase. All of the pre-cut wood and instructions sped up construction considerably. My only complaints are the quality of the wood screws (cheap & bendy) and the window cut-outs being wide & uneven between layers. It's such a timesaver overall though, that I would still recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Some cheap parts throughout and have to use some parts multiple times. Definitely took me more than 2 weekends to build, but I am amateur at best.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received the delivery so late weather has changed and now can’t build it until next Spring

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had professional framers (3 guys) put this together and it took them over 10 hours which cost me more than the shed. I do not recommend buying this shed unless you plan to put it together yourself and know it will take days.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall very pleased with everything from purchase to delivery. Can,t get over how good it looks.

Awesome shed and very sturdy. Only recommendation that is different than instructions is to paint everything before assembling and not after.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was a bit leery of buying a kit and not sure of the quality of wood selection it would have. I was pleasantly surprised when I started to assemble. I would say only a few pieces in the kit had me thinking I would not have chosen them were I picking out lumber at the yard. I am very happy with the size, design, and ease of construction. There are just a few things I wish had been designed differently. Fortunately, it was and is easy to make modifications to the design if you want to. I would have preferred that the 10D nails provided for the 2x4 framing would have been 16D, I just could not bring myself to rely on those for the main frame structure assembly. While I understand it is not needed, I would have preferred there be 1/2" decking provided for the roof instead of just the metal roofing material provided. An easy enough change after strengthening the roof structure, but to have it part of the design would help things feel more solid. Still happy with the purchase, however and if needs change would consider again in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It took over a month to receive the shed after three missed delivery dates. Very poor communication. The quality of the wood was poor, so much warping of the 2x4s that squaring up the shed was very difficult.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not happy with quality after paying 1,700 they pay to have it put up. Not worth it.

1-star rating for our initial assessment during initial opening and beginning of assembly. We started assembly this past weekend. We just started to assemble the floor and one of the 69" 2x4's was missing. Six (6) of the required *7* 69" 2x4's were laying nicely accessible at the top layer (as one would expect), but the 7th was nowhere to be found. We ended up moving and sifting through all the layers piled on top of each other to see if the one missing 2x4 was elsewhere in the package. It was not. We figure someone was sloppy during packaging and packaged an additional 68" (instead of 69") 2x4 on top with the other 69" ones. Fortunately we had some spare 2x4s around and were able to cut a 69" length to enable us to continue, but already just putting the floor in place has given us a sour feeling about this $2k + tax purchase. I'll post a completion review when it's all finished.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this last month. It was delivered early than promised. All the pieces were packed neatly and easy to move. Directions were very helpful for my husband to follow. Overall, we are very happy.

This shed has very cheap wood and material. The doors are like paper. Took two carpenters to put up all day. Sorry, I purchased this shed never recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It didn't take very long to build. All pieces were there and assembled together quite well. Took some time to make sure everything was accurate. We transformed our shed into a mini barn for our chickens. So far so good! Had to add another vent for better air circulation but other than that it's great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just bought this last week. We love it. It is everything we thought it would be. Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Simple steps for construction with plenty of illustrations. Very happy with the shed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am happy with this product. The installer did a wonderful job. One thing, though, is that I wish it had a ramp. It is difficult, but not impossible, to get my lawnmower in and out of the shed.

Good construction. Good instructions. Painted it same colours as the pictire and it looks great. It is super solid, and immovable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a lovely shed and I have no regrets purchasing it, but assembly has taken us a lot longer than anticipated. Part of the reason for that is the incessant rain we've had this summer, and part of it is that it really takes 2 people to assemble the shed, so getting both a chunk of time when the weather was suitable AND the availability of a second man to help has been super tricky because of our limitation on good weather. What I can say is that despite being rained on heavily in the process of being built the shed still appears really sturdy and looks brand new, so we're looking forward to many years of good use from it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are perfectly satisfied with our shed. It looks lovely and is very convenient. Plenty of space for our needs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was more of a "kit" then we expected. A lot of work to put together with very incomplete instructions. The inventory sheet was correct but the instructions were all guess work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Delivered on date confirmed. Easy to follow instructions that were accurate. No missing or damaged components. Went together smooth. Very happy with the results.

Great shed with lots of storage for its size.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] excellent product, very steady and spacious, we love it !!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Be prepared to hire someone to assemble. Instructions say 2 people can reasonably assemble but that is a negligent statement.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shed is great, very spacious. I am able to keep 4 bikes, two strollers, a wagon and other various garden items. It took 3 hired men about 6 hours to complete construction.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it a month ago, and I was happy with my purchased.

Treated lumber was not included- all boards present, just untreated. Plan on 2-3 additional Home Depot trips 😂
