Lifetime 15×8 Ft Dual‑Entry Outdoor Storage Shed, Steel‑Reinforced, UV‑Protected, Weather‑Resistant Backyard Garden Shed with Skylights, Windows & Shelving, Desert Sand

The shed turned out so well I am thinking of moving my mother-in-law into it. :-) Seriously, it’s a very nice looking shed and functional. Most sheds are eye sores. This shed brings the backyard to life. Install was a little challenging. It took two of us two full days, with breaks. We found the online videos a good supplement to the manual. All the parts are well labeled. It was like building a life sized erector set. We kinda enjoyed it. After it was finished we were missing a door latch. We called the 1-800 number and they shipped it right out, no questions asked. The material is sturdy. It won’t rot or rust. It will be interesting to see how well it will hold up in the FL heat, and if the tie downs will keep hurricane winds from blowing it away. That’s how we lost our last shed. My only advice is to build a level, solid foundation to put it on. The floor it comes with is very nice aesthetically, but it needs a wood or concrete base. All-in-all, a good buy for the money.

More than I expected! It came out fantastic. Very strong and looks great!

Good shed for its price. Horrible to put together and instructions were awful

This seems like it’s going to last a long time, and overall I’m very happy with it. Once it’s finally put together, it makes a solid storage shed and feels like a good long-term setup. I put it together by myself, and I do not recommend doing that unless you enjoy testing your patience for sport. The plastic panels can bend and warp in the hot sun, which definitely makes assembly harder than it needs to be. That said, even with the warping and the struggle during setup, it all does come together in the end. Once assembled, it looks good and feels sturdy. The build process may try to fight you a little, but the finished shed is worth it.

Very complicated to assemble. Nothing is as easy as shown in the Lifetime YouTube videos. The instructions are confusing, and the corner walls were extremely hard to put together. On top of that, the kit was missing screws, so I had to go to Home Depot to buy extra parts. It took much longer than expected, and you definitely need help to complete it. The product itself is good once assembled, but the installation process is frustrating and not user-friendly. I would not recommend this for someone without experience in assembling large structures.

I normally don’t review things, but this whole experience and product has just been so bad. I use Amazon so often and have never had any kind of experience like this. First of all, the delivery was absolutely Horrible! If I ever think about ordering something large from Amazon, I won’t do it if CEVA the delivery company - it's not worth it, I’ll buy it anywhere else. First, they gave me a date/time twice (which I took off work to wait for them) & they pulled a no-show both times. When they finally did arrive, the guys didn't look weak, but they wouldn’t (couldn’t?) physically walk the heavy items on their dolly to the side of the house. They said they would only leave it by the driveway or front door, but they would place it by the side of the house or in the back yard IF I paid them an additional $60 cash only (no credit card or check) Sound a bit shady? Of course they were planning to just pocket the money, right? (I wonder if this is the CEVA policy?) My little teenage kid & I ended up rolling the packages on our dolly to the side of the house. I'm a 110 lb. female, and my kid weighs maybe the same. I really think CEVA should hire people that maybe can actually move heavy items on a dolly if that's supposed to be their job. Never again will I ever use them if I can help it! The shed kit itself… again, absolutely the worst product I could have tried. We followed the directions, which were laid out very well, even watched the YouTube videos along with the instructions as we went. Everything seemed to line up well, we got all the pieces & parts put together – the parts and instructions were really laid out well; however, when we went to actually put the plastic sides of the shed up, that was a whole other story. We got the sides up & secured everything the way the directions showed/laid out. We stopped for the night after all the metal pieces, screws & rods, which were supposed to stand as a reinforcement to the walls, were attached to the upright borders correctly, but the next morning the plastic shed parts that were still up were all wilted! Bent in & out from the sun. About a quarter of the siding had fallen down (with the metal reinforcements still attached!) & the rest of the shed that is still standing (the plastic) is completely bent up. I highly doubt we’ll even be able to get the walls that fell back into place now that it’s been put together with all the reinforced metal, much less attach the roof. So, this is great, the delivery was awful, the actual product is a bust, and here I’ll be making payments to Amazon for a shed that we’ll never be able to use… and I’m back to square one looking for a new shed. This time, I’ll take everyone’s advice “Don’t ever buy a shed kit from Amazon.” I wish I’d listened!

The 15x8 ft lifetime shed is a great shed. It was a little bit difficult to put together but I expected it to be, after all it's not a deck box. It's a really good buy. My wife and I assembled it in about a day, also you have to have a level and hard surface to put it on. If it's not level you will definitely have trouble getting the doors to work correctly. I didn't even open the instructions, lifetime has an awesome video on YouTube where a guy actually builds one explaining every step every screw and part as he assembled the shed, right through completion. Was awesome! Feels really sturdy, lots of room. I chose to build a wood platform for mine out of treated lumber. It was cheaper than cement.

Great investment. Looks fantastic. Loads of space inside. Stylish design. Two double doors and floors included

Lots of room, good to have a second person with the walls and roof panels. Easy to assemble only took about 5 hours with power tools. Would recommend not using supplied butyl tape for skylights instead I used an outdoor white silicone for use on motorhome skylights and it is holding up great in a terrential downpour.

It’s well worth the money

Ich habe das Lifetime Gerätehaus „Resident“ erworben. Die ganze Lieferung war innen nass! Die Aufbauanleitung ist leider nicht in deutscher Sprache und durch die primitiven Strichzeichnungen nur sehr schwer verständlich. Einige Montageschritte erschließen sich nicht logisch. Habe in den letzten zwei Tagen das Gerätehaus mit viel Mühe aufgebaut und festgestellt dass es mit der Passgenauigkeit nicht weit her ist. Insbesondere im Dachbereich gibt es erhebliche Maß- und Fertigungstoleranzen, die das Montieren erheblich erschweren. Der Gerätehalter (AYG) bildet keinen rechten Winkel und ist somit nicht verwendbar. Die Seitentür lässt nicht nicht schließen, weil die Türflügel zu eng stehen. Eine Einstellmöglichkeit ist nicht erkennbar. Das ist der Nachteil von Plastik - Nacharbeiten sind kaum möglich. Schöne bunte Werbung. Das Dach sieht trotz großer Mühe und Sachkenntnis nicht sehr gerade und passig aus. Ich bin gespannt auf den ersten Regen. Es sieht fast lustig aus und erfüllt sicher seinen Zweck. Die Nachbarn waren auch schon ganz neugierig. So stehen die teuren Gartenfahrzeuge nicht mehr im Regen und bald im Schnee.

Wasn't easy to put together but it was worth it
