GUNJI 10 x 8 FT Shed Outdoor Storage Shed Metal Garden Shed with Lockable Door Outside Waterproof Tool Shed for Backyard, Patio, Lawn (Brown)

Need better and clearer instructions.

UPDATE:It’s been some time now since I built the shed. Winter has come and so has the rain as well as terrible wind!I am happy to report that these sheds are holding up to expectation. Both are bone-dry inside and with wind so strong it’s blowing over trees, my sheds have not moved at all. It was helpful that I secured them to fence posts for peace of mind.I am upgrading my rating from 4 stars to 5 stars because I suspect they will last a LOONG time. It helps if you silicone every screw that goes inwards to the shed as well as any roof screws.I have no complaints. The shed is a great value and with small tweaks here and there, I feel I got my moneys worth and then some. My original review is below:I ordered two of these sheds. They came well packaged and the instructions were adequate.I added clear corrugated roofing that I had as scrap. It took some customizing but it turned out great. See photos.I also added a 5x7 rubber mat that keeps the shed off the concrete. The shed is bolted to the adjacent fence post and is solid. The base will keep out water and bugs.I added more screws to the main door support and ended up replacing the latch with a beefier one.I sealed every screw that went in. I added more screws and also added magnetic strips inside to organize the tools using the walls.I like it. One annoying thing: Every panel is wrapped in a plastic that protects the finish but is a pain to pull off. It’s EVERYWHERE so if you are OCD like me, it will drive you nuts!

Let me start by saying, I rarely leave reviews unless something was such a great purchase that it changed my life for the better in some way... Bad reviews are reserved for products that are so terrible I don't want others to have to experience the same frustration. This is one of those:Unlike some reviewers, I didn't have problems with the screw holes not lining up. My issue was that there were several places that I had to make my own holes (at least one on each piece of the front and back roof pitches and a couple in other random places on the bottom frame holding the bottom of the sidewalls. This meant taking what I'd just installed apart and counting the holes to ensure it wasn't just misaligned... The instructions were a bit frustrating as well in certain places, though not terrible in a lot of cases. That's about the only thing I can say that is somewhat positive...The aluminum is so thin and flimsy that I was able to bend the pieces back into shape that were bent on the end (probably from someone dropping the boxes on their ends) with just my bare hands. I feel it's important to note that I am a middle-aged female with crap for upper body strength and arthritis in my hands bad enough that my husband has to open jars and gatorade bottles for me.It's especially important to note: The screws used to hold this 10'x8' shed together are 1/2" long with MAYBE 1/4" screw heads to be combined with thin plastic washers.We have not completed the roof yet and as a result, I've had to use 4 slide clamps to hold the front and back roof pitches onto the upper frame to keep them from falling forward or backward and ripping out the screws and screw holes. I'm hoping that the roof trusses will actually provide some stability there. Based on what I've seen so far, I'm not optimistic.Either one side panel is too wide or the bottom frame is too short, and therefore, is not perfectly square. The screw holes matched up, so it's safe to say it wasn't just an oversight or misunderstanding of the instructions on behalf of my husband or myself. That piece (or one panel) just simply does not fit correctly. I'm guessing these two issues are part of the reason for the underwhelming structural integrity as described below.The design flaw I mentioned in the title is with the upper side frame used for holding the sidewalls on the top. There are two 4 ft pieces of heavier aluminum that are fastened together by a cheap plastic plug that does not fit tightly enough to hold the two pieces together prior to getting the side walls attached. When I say heavier, I mean that they are slightly thicker than the wall panels, but still grossly inadequate for what they're supposed to help support and stabilize. Still, I assumed that they, at the very least, would have a sidewall piece that would overlap the seam where those two pieces of frame meet. I was wrong...Instead they have the seam of the wall sheets lined up perfectly on either side of the seam line of the upper frame. There is nothing to reinforce the upper frame on the 8 ft long sides nor brace the 10 ft overall width. Even with the walls up, the plastic fastener is so loose that the weight of the walls (which again, are flimsy as hell) caused the whole side to sag. Also, the sides of the wall sections on the two panels that overlap just behind the upper frame seam do not sit flush against each other, leaving a gap that puts additional pressure on one side of the already ill-fitting plastic fastener causing more instability on the upper frame. For those reasons, I've also got a heavy duty slide clamp holding that portion of the frame together to stabilize it.. The front and back upper frame pieces are 5 ft each and are held together with 4 screws each toward the middle on the interior side of the upper frame. Aside from the tiny ass screws with plastic washers, there's at least hope for some level of stability with those.Finally, they provide gloves and suggest you use them. They are thick cotton gardening style gloves and look like they would easily have fit O.J.... needless to say, I've lost enough blood to make me light-headed and almost lost a couple digits.... In all seriousness, I have cuts on virtually all 10 fingers... Working in those gloves proved very frustrating and difficult for my husband and completely impossible for me. My husband had difficulty even using his own, well-fitting gloves to put it together due to the size of the hardware provided... he has also lost a good amount of blood during this process.Conclusion: before I can finish this thing, I'll be going to home depot for heavy duty brackets to stabilize and reinforce this thing so that the weight of the roof (or first big gust of wind) doesn't cause the whole damn thing to collapse and decapitate of us. God forbid we were to add hooks or a pegboard on the walls to hang tools.

Looks great! The 3' x 5' ft is a good size to store garden shovels, rakes, etc. Clear build directions. We used plywood flooring.

This little shed is pretty much what I expected based on the review. I thought the price was good but the assembly instructions were fair. I leveled concrete blocks as a base and cut a 3'x5' piece of 1/2" scrap plywood for a sturdy floor. Assembling the actual shed started off pretty well with the walls going up as expected but attaching the triangular side pieces and the roof panels was a little tricky. The pre-drilled holes didn't line up in a number of places so I drilled new holes. The final product is pretty good. The shed was also bolted to the concrete blocks. I wish there had been some written advice in the booklet or even better would be an assembly video that could be seen online. I'm sure that would help folks prepare and refer back to. After assembly was complete, I used some grey caulk from the inside and on the roof screws to fill in any gaps which would allow and rain to enter. I was also worried about the roof making a lot of noise in the rain and didn't notice any problems during last nights light showers. I've trimmed all the tree branches above the shed to avoid dripping sounds.

It’s very nice. It’s big. It’s pretty light. You definitely need to secure it down. Mine came with dents from the straps that held the box close. You can see the pictures there’s dents on it but other than that it’s fine.

Based on previous reviews I accepted that this will probably have me resign to you get what you pay for. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The assembly directions are easy to follow! It was packed immaculately, no dents or missing pieces. Everything is labeled. It is super easy to assemble and took me about 4 hours. I use it as tack closet and I am thrilled with the esthetic and quality of this!!!!! BEST MONEY I HAVE EVER SPENT!!! YOU CAN PURCHASE THIS WITH CONFIDENCE!

It will take 2 to put this together, but is worth the hassle. Amazing price for a good sized shed. Don't wait buy it.
