Patiowell 3x3 FT Storage Shed, Outdoor Metal Small Sheds with Lockable Door and Sloping Roof, Waterproof Outside Utility Garden Tool Shed for Patio Lawn Backyard, Gray

The Cabinet is great. I had an assembly issue, with a panel missing. I contacted the Company via Amazon and their response was exceptional. A response within 36 hours and a replacement sent shortly afterwards. The perfect example of what Customer Service should be.

Good

Dimensions are very misleading. States that it is an 8x8 shed but it isn’t even close. I’m measuring 7’3” on each outside edge. Interior space is less than that. Stuck with a shed that isn’t what I thought and isn’t big enough for my needs.

Let's start with some of the other reviews. Those that complain about the "sturdiness" of it and how you can't lean against it...it's an ALUMINUM shed, not a wood framed tuff shed. It's as sturdy as a metal shed is going to be. Next, the plastic on the panels. Oh...my...dear...God. Let me tell you that people aren't lying about this taking FOREVER to peel off. I had three people peeling an entire Saturday as I assembled and they couldn't feed me panels fast enough. I feel sorry for someone that does that part without help. Invite some friends to help (they won't be friends when they're done tho so maybe not close friends). The screws, oh the screws. There's A LOT! Enough said. Bent panels. Now, I have mixed feelings here. Were there some bent panels. Yes. Was this the manufacturers fault, no. Did the shipping boxes have an excess of damage, no (a little worn, but nothing that would indicate that anything would have been wrong). All I can think of here is that as the boxes were handled, probably multiple times, they were probably dropped and leveraged against shelving and such to cause the bending I encountered. That being said, most of the bent spots were easily bent back in to shape by hand with only a few noticeable panels once assembled that didn't line up exactly right. There was however one panel for the door that was unusable. See the end of the review about this. Did I mention the plastic that needs peeled? Finally, the screw holes misaligned. Did every single hole line up perfect, of course not. Did some, yes. Did others, not quite. That being said, it's thin aluminum and with just the smallest bit of "stretching" all misaligned holes found their home and the screws went right in. Directions. Not as bad as made out to be. Just take your time, grab the right panel numbers, you'll make it...EVENTUALLY. Customer service. Here's where the unusable panel comes in. Each door is made with two panels. One of mine had a crease in the metal from the top all the way to the bottom and it was right across the holes for the door latch catch. I still assembled it but the doors did not line up to close and latch at all. I contacted customer service via email and within hours got a response after reporting the issue. I was asked for some pictures, which I provided, and there were no other questions asked. In less that 24 hours a replacement was sent which I received in 3 days. Customer service contacted me throughout, letting me know the status as it made it's way to me and the replacement arrived in perfect condition. Gotta give 5 stars to their customer service dept, couldn't have been easier. Overall, it's exactly what I ordered it for, a storage shed. Lastly, don't forget to anchor it down! After assembly, we had to slide it in to place against the garage (it went too close to build it and be able to install screws). Once my assembled, my 5'3" wife and I were able to push at the bottom of the frame and it slid with relative ease across the concrete. If not anchored down after you build it, it won't stay put with a breezy storm. The only reason for the four stars was the bent door panel that was replaced but had to sit open while waiting for it. Would recommend as an inexpensive shed for backyard storage.

Poor instructions, holes to attach parts don’t match up and panel missing. Difficult communication with supplier.

Easy to install, just level the ground … follow the instructions.
