Let’s face it, the instruction’s claim that this can be assembled by 2 people within 3 hrs is rather fanciful. More like 3 days! However it’s still a great shed. The positives: 1) The shed looks nice. Well far nicer than we expected. We went for metal (as opposed to wood or plastic) for the fact we could get a larger shed for cheaper, so we can fit all our bikes in. We were therefore initially prepared to compromise on the look so we were pleasantly surprised with the appearance. 2) Size. Similar to the above the shed is fairly large and can easily fit in 4 or 5 bikes. It’s just possible to stand in the middle but it’s not the sort of shed you’d stay in for long anyway - more a storing kind of shed. 3) Price. It’s very good value for money when you start looking at the price of similarly sized wooden or plastic sheds. 4) Security. This is an ‘odd’ one but again an unexpected benefit is that it’s too noisy to steal from. We set up security cameras, padlocks, chains and so on then realised opening the sliding doors is so loud that you’ll wake half the neighbourhood up if you choose to park your bike in there after around 7pm! The negatives: Only one really which is the construction. I’m sure this is mentioned countless times elsewhere in product reviews but if you’ve grown accustomed to IKEA assembly instructions you’re not going to be happy. To cut a long story short the labelling of the various pieces with codes is fine but the illustrations are very poorly executed. Often it’s impossible to decipher what piece goes where by looking at the diagrams and it becomes quicker to ignore the drawings and use trial and error. The total assembly time was around 12 hours over 3 days. Of course, some will be faster and, certainly some will be even slower than us. In conclusion- Fiddly pieces, very poor illustrations in the instructions and vastly more time needed to assemble than the 3 hrs they claim. Very nice look (in our opinion), secure due to the excessive noise when opening/closing which would surely put off any would-be thief (the noise could also be a disadvantage I suppose), good price and good size. Would we buy another one if we need more storage space? The short answer is yes. Would we pay someone else to build it if we could go back in time? Yes, definitely!

OK, let’s get straight to the nitty gritty. This is an aluminium shed with thin walls and pressed aluminium structure. When I unpacked it seemed really flimsy, however it is the structure that binds the whole thing together. Once the walls are built with the surrounding top frame, the rigidity increases massively. Once the roof is on, the structure is absolutely solid. There are many reviews on here saying holes don’t match up. I had no problems whatsoever but it is important to note this should be built on a solid even ground. If your base is uneven I can see where problems would arise. I built this on an existing patio which was flat and level. All of the holes did match up, but then again I am an engineer, so never tighten anything fully until the next piece is ready, and that is definitely the trick with this one. Take your time, don’t tighten anything fully until each section is in place, this allows a degree of movement. The holes will line up if you build with this attitude. This does require some degree of competence to build. I happen to be an engineer so built it methodically. The instructions are poor and take some studying but nothing too tricky. This being said, I would not recommend to someone who is not technically minded. Overall, not too bad. I do have a few cuts to my fingers as some of those edges are sharp! I bought this as a temporary shed whilst I build my garden room, it will definitely do for me, however if you’re looking for something long term it maybe advisable to go for something with a bit more quality. At the end of the day, it’s a 9ft x 6ft aluminium shed for £230. I calculated the cost to build my own out of timber and the cost was over £600. Hope this helps.

You'll need minimum of 3 physically agile people, who possess a brilliant sense of humour & the patience of a Saint or two.. Only attempt to assemble on a dry zero wind day, if your brave enough & enjoy a challenge... Allow up to 3 days to errect & disemble and re arrect until you figure out how it all should line up.. A degree in engineering to assemble, would help...instructions absolutely useless...you need to write your own...literally! The quality flimsy...thin metal! I would never purchase again...decided not to send it back, due to the effort in organising people to help and finally get it up...the thought of disembling & trying to repackage it, just wasn't an option...filled me with dread! It was an absolute nightmare... When it's a windy rainy day it leaks...dreadful design....extremely disappointed....certainly not a cheap purchase...had to buy buckets and tarpaulins to cover the contents inside & catch some of the rain water, constantly pouring in...lots of items stored totally ruined, due to water damage....the sliding entrance doors refuse to meet up flush...rain goes through the gap....door handles cheap & nasty plastic...easy to break in...padlock waste of time... Not expecting it to withstand another Winter...such poor quality! The previous metal shed we had from a different company and far superior quality " Similar price & size" is still standing with zero problems 17 years on....sadly left it at our old house & couldn't remember were we bought it from...

Fantastic shed for the price, very roomy and looks nice but it's so fiddly to put together. I'm a joiner and have put together hundreds of flat packs but this stumped me, the instructions are rubbish. Gloves are provided but you can't wear them due to the hundreds of tiny screws and bolts. Some of the panel edges are sharp and my hands were cut to ribbons. I'd definitely recommend 2 people build it. So after a couple of days ranting and raving and losing 12 gallons of blood I'm very happy with it and my labrador has forgiven me for all the swearing.

Happy with the product but the metal is very thin. Internal height is much smaller due to the beams. Installation took several days and not the few hours estimated in the instructions. It was a fun DIY project and allowed me to store the things destined for. Mix feelings about the see through piece of the roof. You better view but in the summer it gets hot! It appears to be more sturdy then what it is, but as long as no one bumps it or a branch falls on it, it does its job and looks good.

L'abri de jardin et bien assez facile à monter tôle un peu fine 0,25 mm d'épaisseur.

Problème sur une tôle du toit des troux au movais endroit même en tournant les tôle toujour les troux

Une demi journée de montage, la notice est compliquée. Cependant il est de bonne qualité

3 colis reçus et a l'ouverture il y a plusieurs tôles endommagées et tordues, d'autant plus que lorsqu'il pleut là où il y a les vis et malgré les joints d'étanchéité installés l'eau passe quand même et du coup l'abri de jardin est rempli d'eau à plusieurs endroits, c'est dommage...
