Absolute nightmare to construct, even for a professional.

Doesn't matter about the price all the screws leak and the condensation that accumulates in these metal sheds make everything go rusty. Avoid like the plague!

The condensation gets her down a bit, but all in all it's better than a nursing home I keep telling her.

These Yardmaster make are the better quality ones. I've had a 9X7 one for the last 8 yrs. Its in as good cond now as the day i built it and there is absolutely no rust anywhere on the shed or the fixings. They seem flimsy going up, but once they are fully constructed, they are a very sturdy structure. I built mine on a concrete base with DPC and used the ground anchors in 2 corners. This shed aint going anywhere and its been in some storm winds over the last 8 yrs.
Bit of a pig to erect but once done the only maintenance is some grease on the sliding door runners every couple of years.
You do get a bit of condensation on the inside of the wall & roof panels, but it just beads on the inside surface with the odd drip falling and the vents in the shed evaporate this moisture.
I built this shed specifically for my 2 motorcycles and they've suffered no ill effects at all being in there.
I really rate these sheds and when my other shed, a timber one, has to be replaced, i shall replace it with one of these Yardmaster ones.

tricky, yes very, 2 cordless drills (screwdrivers) for the hundreds of self tappers and nuts and screwhead bolts and 2 people can put this together in about 4hrs ish :smiley: good price
also, i put mine on a plinth made out of wooden decking to help stop condensation inside (it worked)

I didn't have much trouble and am far from being a pro

I'd agree took me a another lad 3.5 hours, better off with a wooden shed from somewhere online.

Great price and easy to assemble for anyone with moderate diy skills, if your doing it on your own just make sure it's not windy :smile:

Its rubbish. Rust appear after few months. Tiny metal and light construction. Must be fit to ground otherwise you can say goodbye on windy wether to that shed

Put mine down in 2003 and it's still standing. No sign of rust or condensation. It's is on some wooden planks that i rested on concrete slabs.
