Outstanding
I Purchased mine in 2014, and it has done well sitting on my boat dock. What I need are brackets that mount in the side walls, 1/4 diameter, U shape with a flat side including a tapped hole with a screw. I have a picture but no where to post it here. You have a picture of it on this page. Please provide a part/catalog number for the bracket.

    Extraaa storage space
    Hi, after searching for a extra storage space to compliment my Rubbermaid 7x7 I searched Ace and Home Depot online and came across this one. I was not sure until I seen review 6-16-20’ and the pictures gave me a better idea of what I was looking for, I still had a gas lawn mower that did not fit. I am not satisfied with the quality of it. The doors are can easily be destroyed over time. I noticed on these warm California days the doors warp. Easy to assemble yes a one person job if needed.

      A Quality Shed
      I put this together with a friend and it took less than an hour. I used clear silicone caulk along the top edge and back seam. It took me three hours to prepare the pad where I was going to place the shed. I used bags of patio/paver sand to level out the ground under the pavers. On top of the pavers I spread a thin even layer of paver sand over which I placed a sheet of HardieBacker with HydroDefense Technology 3'x5'x0.42" Cement Board (pink side up). The shed is lightweight and it was simple to lift it into place. The interior stays dry. I keep my Ryobi battery powered mower in there (standing upright). I did not install shelves, but rather set in there a metal bakers rack. Great floor with a slight ramp making it easy to push in a mower. Handle has a hole for a small lock. The only con is that the back corners of the roof have curled upwards slightly. I would highly recommend. In 6 months I have not had any issues with the shed, it stays put even in strong winds with the weight of the contents I have stored inside.

        very easy assembly
        My son and i put this shed together in one hour. All parts lined up and are clearly marked. All parts included as well as extra screws. I will probably caulk a spot or two in the corners just to be sure water and bugs stay out. At this moment in time, i am very pleased with this shed

          This was my daughter's requested Birthday gift. She LOVES it. Takes care of all tasks for her house, plus maintaining a robust large vegetable garden, this lovely shed makes it all organized.

            Shed was easy to assemble per the instructions, it is sturdy and works well for what I bought it for, storing chairs and seat cushions for patio furniture.

            Not the greatest buy...
            Just assembled the shed, all listed parts were there and it assembled fairly easily and quickly. However, I am disappointed with how the doors fit. They bow out from the center buy a couple inches. This leaves a pretty significant gap and the doors do not secure well when closed. The door appears to gave a small cut out at the center closet to the shed wall where maybe a hinge can be installed to prevent the bowing. Was this a piece that was supposed to be part of the shed???

              Disappointing
              Negative: I bought it barely two months ago and doors are already warping and do not close properly (see the picture). Positives: the shed was easy to assemble and looks very nice. I bought Rubbermaid because I thought it was a good brand, but according to other reviews door warping appears to be a common issue - I should have read reviews before buying! Will be spending my time contacting Rubbermaid to see if anything can be done. Disappointing...

                Great Product!
                I bought two of these sheds and although assembly was a little tricky at times, complete with sudden drenching thunderstorm, the finished structures have been solid and durable with no major problems or drawbacks. Couple of slightly wobbly looking slightly warped side panels, one door closing needs just a slight extra push. Just follow the assembly instructions carefully, select the right part, the right way up etc. Screwed down the floor panels to an existing level deck and solid as a rock. Storing patio and deck furniture over the winter and handy for garden tools etc in the summer. Not the cheapest or possibly strongest, but I am very pleased so far, two years in.

                  Good Shed, 3 years old
                  It is good shed. I bought it in May 2013. Use it for gardening and Grilling tools mostly. Very handy and has served me well. I need to add additional shelves BUT I CANNOT FIND THE BRACKETS (5H88) TO MOUNT THE HARDWARE FOR THE SHELVES. I need six (6) to add shelves Does anyone have any suggestions???

                    Great shed
                    We've had this shed for almost 2 years now, and have been extremely happy with it. It took my wife and me about an hour to assemble, and we anchored it to our deck with 5 large wood screws. I later purchased a Rubbermaid shelving system and installed 2 shelves, one of which holds a 46" TV that weighs roughly 40 lbs. The shed is also home to a small dorm room fridge, as well as various grilling tools and other supplies for the backyard (some of which hang on a peg board I installed on one of the side walls). It is still as sturdy as it was the day we assembled it, and water has never made its way inside. Considering we live in hot, humid, and rainy south Louisiana, this says a lot. I was looking for both an outdoor TV cabinet and extra weatherproof storage when I purchased it, and it has served both of those purposes extremely well.

                      Waste of money
                      My shed has been up for 4 years and I have already needed to run longer all thread in through the roof to hold the doors on place. A small gust off wind and the doors pop right out. I have also need to bolt the roof panels to the walls because the 4 screws that hold the each panel on blow off as well. last night we had a thunderstorm with 25 mph winds and I come to find the entire shed ripped apart and in pieces

                        Leaking, doors come off due to warped roof pieces.
                        5 months out of warranty, the shed started leaking badly. The picture shows that the roof has warped. This has resulted in not only leaks but the doors blowing off in strong winds.

                          save your $ and buy something else, wood or metal.
                          This thing is such a piece of crap and I'm an idiot for thinking it would be anything otherwise. If you lean anything against the walls, be sure it's not too heavy, like a 4 person tent, which isn't that heavy, but heavy enough to bow the walls and creating a gap in the corners.

                            Rubbermaid should be ashamed for charging so much for a cheap plastic shed. They could also learn a thing or two from ikea as far as engineering and build quality. You have to drill your own holes for most of this build which to me seems like the laziest quality.

                            Purchased one when I built my house 20 years ago. Product has held up well until recently when door hinge pin broke off. Probably time to get a new one!

                              Salted storage unit a year ago to hold chicken feed and other supplies in. We have been very pleased with the unit so far. Not only complaint is I'm having trouble finding the u-shaped bracket holder for the shelves I need to add four and I can't find them

                                    Just bought & put together today & already the doors don't open & close without me lifting the roof. Seems flimsy. The finish was all scratched & bubbled out of the box.

                                        The shed was very easy to assemble although I needed a third hand a couple of times. The directions, instructions and all hardware were included and everything fit well. I have one in my carport and liked it so much that I bought another to place outdoors in my RV storage space. Neither leak, doors stay on in the wind, corners don't peel up in the direct sun and the colors don't fade. Would certainly buy again if needed!

                                          Overall the shed is decent once put together. I ran into several situations where the holes for screws didn't line up or were missing all together and I had to drill out the holes my self. Very disappointed because of that.
