Arrow VT1431 Vinyl Coated Murryhill 14-Feet by 31-Feet Heavy Duty Steel Storage Shed

It took three of us about two and a half twelve hour days of labor to finish this building, mostly because it wouldn't stop raining. We couldn't wait until after the rain, because our extra help was leaving town.The biggest issue I had with it was the poor quality of the instructions and finding the required parts.The numbers were stamped on to the painted panels with water soluble paint, and did I mention is was raining the whole time? So most of the time the numbers were very difficult to read, if they even still existed. There were times when the written directions and the illustrations didn't match. This caused us to remove and reinstall some brackets several times (the direction of the L-brackets made a big difference). Also I had to make some modifications to the plan because of how they "tried" to adapt the garage door made by another company to this shed.For the most part everything lined up fairly well. I think I would have been a lot happier if the company supplied a "how to build it" DVD or actual images of a build.

Doors don’t open and close easily

The materials, fit and finish are excellent, but the assembly instructions are very difficult. I had my family come together for a "Barn Raising" if you will. My father-in-law is very mechanical after a career as a pipe fitter, my brother-in-law is a structural engineer, and my father has remodeled multiple homes and built spec-homes. We are all very mechanically inclined, and we put in about 40 man hours and didn't quite have it finished. Looking back on it, we believe that our major flaw was in trying to take the direction word for word and completing everything in the exact order that the directions suggest. I am happy with the way it came out, but again, these directions are spectacularly difficult to follow. In fact, we found that it didn't matter what language the directions were in that we picked up and looked at.

The customer service rep knew exactly what issues I was having before I got past the model. I called them twice because the lack of exploded diagrams and all around horrible explanation of how to assemble certain items. I would say save your money this product is not worth the amount they charge. I made the mistake of ordering two sheds from them but will never purchase another product made by this company.

All in all this structure is ok for the money. I would not call it heavy duty though. Went together pretty easy but very time consuming. nylon washers do not seal very good had to go over all screws with silicone.

I never post reviews but this shed has me tossing and turning in my sleep. I've been putting things together my whole life and this has to be the toughest thing to date. Million screws things don't line up. What a disappointment

This is a great shed. Easy to assemble and looks great. Took me about 18 hours to compleat assembly with a friend helping. This shed is big enough to hold two smaller cars or a large car and alot of other stuff. Very strong frame, I added a garage door opener to mine. It has a real garage door that matches the one on my house. All my neighbors love it, when I tell them the price they can't believe it. What a bargan. Loven it. A+++++

If you aren't extremely mechanically inclined I wouldn't recommend trying to tackle this yourself.
