dont buy a metal shed. I ignored advice and bought a metal shed, now I'm wishing it would just disappear overnight. They are so damp it's unbelievable.

Never put anything in a shed you wouldn't want to get damp. Metal sheds are fine.
Is the door on 7ft or 6ft side?

Appears to be on the 7ft side

ordered the 8x6
regarding condensation, wouldnt a couple of ventilation holes drilled just under the over hang on both sides help with letting the warmer air escape?

you'd think, but even leaving the doors open doesn't work. A wooden shed is the way to go. It really is.

Mixed reviews on Argos also remember you need a good base as my father had one many years ago and they are very light when up.

These things are prob great in a dry climate - like Arizona!

surely the door would be on the width and not depth. And the depth is the longer measurement.

Damp even when insulated, spend 2 days putting these up including concrete base, go rusty after 3 years even after a yearly clean and protection. Buy a wooden shed so much easier and quicker in the long run, and will outlast these sheds

+1 for wooden shed, but make sure to raise it off the ground especially if it's where leaves can gather or the base will rot. I used a frame of 4"x3" and put that frame on some sacrificial blocks that can be replaced if necessary.

Bought the larger 8x6 shed which was a great price at £199 with £8.95 for delivery.
Not bothered about condensation as I will store tools etc in this one and have the more delicate stuff ( whatever that is!!) in the wooden shed.
