DuramaxECO 6 x 6 (3.33 m2) Metal Garden Storage Shed, Hot-Dipped Galvanized Metal Garden Shed, Tool Storage Shed, Strong Reinforced Roof Structure, Maintenance-Free Metal Shed, Green

The media could not be loaded. I must say that this shed is amazing, the box came with everything needed along with a nice set of instructions to assemble the shed although it did take nearly all day to put up. I must warn you to wear gloves, as the panels are very sharp and can easily slice your fingers (a mistake I made).This shed definitely takes 2 people to build so the same as most other sheds. It definitely helps making a base for this and drilling it into the ground to secure it nicely which is what we did and it’s lasted exceptionally for the years we’ve had it!It is waterproof and has a sturdy, fairly solid build with thiner metal so even after a very heavy downpour everything inside was bone dry and undamaged. The doors slide nicely most of the time except for the odd occasion they get jammed. They close tightly and have a hole to attach your lock onto the shed which holds well. There’s also a great amount of room in this shed with the height and width leaving enough room to walk in it even when full. It doesn’t wear away or rot like wooden sheds usually do which is amazing for a long lasting shed.It takes away the tedious job repairing the shed every year so well worth the money I would highly recommend.

Its a shed, well what can be said?!Well first of all this is not just any shed, this is a metal shed and as such means no hassle painting it every year, this has to be the main perk of these things, it saves an awful lot of time in the long run and in all honesty its not that expensive for that it is, Its not bad value for money although i did notice that the price seems to vary every week or two for some odd reason!! Maybe worth watching it for a bit first to see if it drops ;)Construction wise, this shed was an absolute nightmare to put up, and that is coming from an expert flat pack builder who loves ikea!! There are large diagrams to follow and its broken down in simple to do steps, my main issue was however that sometimes they were not always clear and in one part, the diagram was drawn so the bracket faced the wrong way, so we get two thirds of the way through it and have to reassemble some parts as the bracket was facing the wrong way!!My advice would be to not follow the diagrams religiously like we tried to, i was worried about it all being incorrect so religiously followed the lot.... well until the point we realised the beams were drawn the wrong way around!! Use your initiative and dont be too reliant. The parts are really well labelled and easy to find - and there are a fair few of them!! The steel beams/silver parts are embossed with the code so you may have to tilt it to the light to see the code. The rest of the codes are stickered on.....When built is seems sturdy enough and overall size is pretty good, a little low to enter so if you are tall, mind your head ;) but it does the job and it looks good........Pro's .....good price for what size it issturdy enoughlightweight enough to build without he-man or she-ralooks goodno yearly paintingcomes with a 5 year guarantee against rust etchas ventilation to keep things dampness free!!NegativesThe edges of the metal are SHARP, and i mean sharp enough to cut through gloves unless you are wearing thick rigger type gloves, so PLEASE invest in a pair before attempting to put the shed up (i have a small scar as proof, a mate has a matching one and the hubby has a large one that had to be glued as a reminder too, and i was wearing gloves!!!)The roof is a disaster zone attempting to do!! Following the instructions you put the roof on panel by panel, which is great and easy to do although reaching over to get the screws in the center was a bit chaotic. The main issue came with the fact that there is some waterproof taping you get to run along the seam of the central joins /peak of the roof, this is vital and it will leak without it!! Only thing is you have to lean across the roof to get to it and run it along the length of the roof, this was a nightmare as we were not tall enough, and resulted in a ladder having to be used in an l shape for safety and the shed getting dented at almost every position we used.... A few of the holes didn't match up either, when you are up a ladder and are having to pull the whole side of a shed roof to align things its a little scary haha!!We had a mismatch of screws!!!! For some odd reason we were given a large bag of screws we only needed a few of and nowhere near enough bolts that we actually needed, check your amounts first guys!! It cost us almost an extra £10 in bolts...... and that was without anchor bolts which you will also need to buy- £10 a box of 50 at screwfix.....dewalt- they are brilliant !!No way is this shed easy to assembly in a short time, it takes about an hour to get all the bits out and sort them out into piles etc .... we did it over a few days, we had kids helping - teenagers, dont worry who always had gloves etc on! to hold things up else i think it would have took longer, if you can afford to hire someone to build it i recommend you do unless you have alot of patience or have time to do it all in a day or so!!I wish i had done!!Handles are plastic and not that strong, thick plastic but still, security wise i would buy a hasp and a good padlock as added security if you are storing valuables in it.Overall it looks good bar the dents in the roof >< and it is a good size and for the money you are going to struggle to get alot better, the fact that it is metal is a huge advantage as maintenance is going to be kept at a minimal,no rot to worry about and a 5 year guarantee is good although the fact that it is an american firm may cause issues or high shipping costs lol!! for the money that it costs you are going to struggle to get anything else as good to be honest, and we had looked! But check your parts etc before you start to build it, insure it isnt a return which is what i am suspecting mine was and all will be ok :)

When it arrived in its box we thought no way a 8 x 8 shed could be in there, but it was and we built it in a long day. It’s impossible to build on your own and you need to choose a windless day. You need some experience in assembly and it’s not really for the novice. The steel sheets are very thin and easily damaged if not handled correctly. The instructions were very clear with all the components marked. Some holes were slightly misaligned but easily rectified. We found the end result very good putting ours on the end of our decking, it looks very smart and no painting needed. You can’t place heavy objects next to the walls but if you use racking it’s great, we have had a heavy rain fall and no leaks, we have fitted guttering around and collected the water into a butt. For the price it’s a very attractive alternative to the wooden shed. Only time will tell if it’s durable.
