Customer Reviews for Lifetime 15 ft. x 8 ft. Resin Outdoor Garden Shed

I really like the look of the shed. I watched the youtube video of the Lifetime shed as well as reading the instruction manual. It really helped to watch the video. We only had to take it down once as I installed one of the floor panels the wrong way and the hole for the door was on the wrong side. (My mistake) The roof panels did not slide on as easily as the video showed. But he's probably been putting up these sheds for a while and has more practice. I used a wooden platform instead of pouring a cement foundation. But it feels solid with the plywood and floor panels. Once the roof trusses were on the walls seemed sturdier. It is waterproof. (It's already rained pretty hard and no leaks.) The skylights don't let in a lot of light but I think it helps They were a little hard to install. It took half a day to build the platform. It took most of the next day to install the shed. I think it is a nice addition to the yard. It was cheaper to buy the shed than rent a storage unit for a year for when my daughter moves.

The doors are almost impossible to open or shut. The builder said that happens sometimes and it should improve with time, but right now the shed is very difficult to use.

Work well and went together as instructed.

Great quality product. Good directions. Only problem I had with assembly was getting the corner wall pieces to snap into the floor. I thought I was going to loose my mind.

The shed itself is good for my needs, HOWEVER, the issue was with the installation instructions along with parts NOT being marked properly or at all, not to mention having to keep going back to my pc for the you tube videos that weren't very specific either. I would have spent the $600 for the 3rd party installers to put it together, but I was trying to make this project cost effective. I would NOT recommend this product to anybody.

As a builder, it was not too bad to build, but you will definitely need 2 to 3 people to assemble and some sort of mechanical abilities

We love it! Easy to install and looks so nice!

If you are looking for a shed that will last years, look elsewhere. While it looks nice, it's cheaply made. Many screws stripped and would not tighten. Doors were level and still had a hard time closing them. Had to lift up on the front gable to shut the left door. If doors are left open in the sun, they expand and will not close. VERY hot inside this shed. Colors not as described. There is NO brown shade to this shed. It's a dark gray color. Trusses don't attach to shed, they just sit atop the walls and attach to roof panels. The so-called "skylights" are a joke. They are dark and don't allow light to in.

Comes in 3 LARGE boxes totaling 750lbs. Fortunately had neighbor with a fork lift to move it from driveway to backyard. Took a whole day to build a completely level platform for the floor. The outside dimension was a little smaller than stated. I could have easily gotten by with 8x15 actual platform. It took about 18 hours total for 2 people most of the time. Directions were not always clear but you can figure it out. The doors didn't go as smoothly as the YouTube video. Yes there is a YouTube but it goes way too fast. Overall I am very happy with the shed.

The downside is that the instructions aren't easy to follow, and going along with the videos made it look a lot easier than it actually was. Pieces don't slide together as easily as in the video. A LOT of patience and endurance will produce a beautiful shed!

The lifetimes shed I bought it’s so beautiful at my backyard I would recommend lifetime shed to anyone to purchase it you would not regret buying it

I’m 69 and was able to put this shed together with my 35 yr old daughter. Watch the YouTube video. That makes it really easy. But I agree with other reviewers that there is something wrong with the roof piece over the door. it’s warped or cut too small. Now the doors won’t close. And we did need to buy a few longer screws. What a shame. I’m contacting Customer Service to see what kind of fix they can offer. Fingers crossed.

After about 10,000 screws no leaks looks great.

The shed was easy to put together & it is alot bigger on the inside then it is on the outside.

Not properly labeled, warped having issues, doors on wont close correctly, floor hasgaps, hard to put together done by a contractor.

Good quality. Professionally installed. Great appeal!!

Make sure you have a good area to install on. Big issue with this and I am sure of most plastic sheds is the door having no real support or frame. Very bad idea how it is engineered. Not that bad to assemble however I did not go in the order that was suggested. Lay all the groups out and make sense of it then start.

Nice shed

Shed was not installed properly

Fun time. 15% of the project I got help the rest I did by myself. 1.5days for wooden base and 1.5 day to build shed Watch the video, super easy to follow. The .5 day to build was set up work and putting together pieces per the instructions. The next day I started with the floor and had the whole thing up by the end of the day. I got a bracket and solar powered motion sensor light and hung it under skylight so at night when I walk in the light comes on automatically and is powered by solar energy
