The front of the assembly manual says 'Easy to Assemble' - which I would qualify by saying that it is easy, but very time consuming. With 3 other friends it took us about 5 hours to just get the walls assembled. Then another weekend with 2 of us to get the roof put on and set up properly. I would stress the importance to any one putting this shed together to have a solid and level floor or foundation and work to square up the walls as best as you can. Still, in the end, paying a contractor $400 more in total to get a shed in one day seemed pretty attractive. Otherwise, this is a decent kit for the money and a better option if you want wood and metal instead of just metal.
Our kit arrived missing wood slats of one size and with extra slats of the other size. The measurements were off on the shed (and the foundation), so we had to basically build it from scratch, as the instructions were of no help. With the extra expense of buying the tongue/groove wood we needed to finish the project I do not consider this product a value at all.
We are seriously disappointed with this purchase. No fault of Wal-Mart, it is definately the manufacturer. Here is the list of issues: -Wood is paper thin. You are better off purchasing an all metal shed. -Pieces and holes don't match most of the time. -I takes countless man hours to assemble this product and you have to solve problems on your own since parts don't match up. -Screws they give you are so tiny that they start popping out immediately from the pressure and then your faced with wood that already has a hole in it from a screw that popped out. -Wall & corner braces break loose because of the pressure and the screws being entirely too small. -Nice looks but definately not worth the hassle. -Corner braces bend so easily and don't hold wood in well. You will have to buy some long screw yourself. All in all, we are so disappointed with this shed. We will have to purchase wood to make more secure cross bars inside because the metal brackets/screws just can't hold the contracting of the wood. Oh don't forget to treat the wood immediately. If you don't get it assembled in time and it rains, it will buckle everywhere. We learned that real quick.
