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.

I recently purchased the Duramax ECO 8 x 6 Metal Garden Storage Shed, and here’s a detailed review of my experience:Pros:Durable Construction: The hot-dipped galvanized metal construction is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, ensuring that the shed will withstand harsh weather conditions and provide long-lasting durability.Spacious Interior: With dimensions of 8 x 6 feet, the shed offers ample space for storing gardening tools, equipment, and outdoor supplies. It’s spacious enough to accommodate various items while keeping your garden organized.Easy Assembly: The shed comes with clear instructions, and the assembly process is straightforward. The pre-cut and pre-drilled panels make it easier to put together, though it’s always helpful to have an extra pair of hands during assembly.Ventilation: Equipped with built-in ventilation, the shed helps to prevent moisture buildup and reduce the risk of mold and mildew, which is crucial for maintaining the condition of your stored items.Cons:No Floor Included: The shed does not come with a floor, so you’ll need to prepare a solid foundation or base before installation. This adds an extra step and cost to the setup process.Assembly Time: While assembly is straightforward, it can be time-consuming, especially if you’re working alone. It’s recommended to allocate a good few hours for setup to ensure everything is properly aligned and secured.Limited Color Options: The shed is available in a limited color range, which might not fit every garden aesthetic. It’s only offered in a basic color scheme, so customization options are minimal.Conclusion:The Duramax ECO 8 x 6 Metal Garden Storage Shed is a robust and spacious option for anyone needing extra storage space in their garden. Its durable galvanized metal construction and built-in ventilation make it a reliable choice for outdoor storage. While the absence of a floor and the potentially lengthy assembly process are minor drawbacks, the overall functionality and weather resistance make it a worthwhile investment. If you’re looking for a sturdy and practical shed to keep your garden tools and equipment safe, this model is a strong contender.

Couldn't afford a large wooden shed so looked at the reviews and this one stood out. Ordered and was delivered by a 2 person team from Amazon (75kg i believe so you wont move this box much).The box that arrives you look at it and cant imagine a shed could be in it, other than by the weight.The day before we laid some slabs around what would be the where the shed will sit on (using the manual online) and then created a wooden frame (to screw the shed onto and raise it off the ground) using 45mm high by 90mm ensuring the outside edge of the wood lines up with the outside of shed as you don't want rain running onto the wood. At the front of the shed where the door will be you will need something wider wood wise as there is a ramp for the door and this is wider that the rest of the shed so needs supporting.So the weekend arrived and we started at 10am with the build... you need 3 people ideally, two to hold the bits together as you start to assemble. The bottom bars and side panels are fairly easy to do but no less time consuming due to the amount of screws and bolts that have to be used (make sure you dont do when its windy).We then started on the upper frame and roof bars, these are slightly trickier but again patience and a bit of moving about to ensure you havent got a twisted stucture, which is easy to happen until you have everything but the roof on and you can shift it slightly about to ensure its straight.Next the roof, starting at one end on one side it a bit more difficult and you will need some decent steps to reach and secure to the top roof bar. Lining up is important and if it doesnt line up go back a step an check the previous roof sheet as if the little holes at the end of the roof panels dont line up you will have an issue putting the final parts on.The other side of the roof is slightly hard and you need to add some silver tape down the join as you put them on. The tape could be wider and better and you may want to use something better but if not it will do. Again lining up is vital and it can take a while to complete this part. The the top metal cover over the join has to be put together and screwed down. This was a pain as its not the best design and could have been made better as once part with less gap under it to let in any possibly rain. This is where the tape that was used on the join will be the 2nd defence so its important that was put on correctly. Screwing in the middle screws on the roof on this part is also a but tricky unless you have some high steps and someone to keep you steady.That was the end of the first day at 7.30pm. We started the 2nd day at 10am on the doors and once done the doors are fairly easy to put together and then that just leaves the plastic edging of the roof to tidy it up.Then put the doors in and you will then know if you are truly straight with your build as the rail will need to be inline on the base for the doors to slide correctly. Then you need to build a floor inside, now you dont have to but then you risk damp or rain getting under the shed. I went for 18mm OSB at around £20 a sheet and you will need 2 of those if getting 2.4x1.2m or you could using decking wood and created a decking floor inside. For both plus some 45x45mm wood to create the supports for the floor.After all that it was done and i'm knackered but it was worth the build. A nice looking shed that hopefully will be still up far longer than the other wooden once i have in the garden.
