Greesum 8FT x 6FT Metal Outdoor Storage Shed | Heavy-Duty Steel Utility Tool Shed with Secure Door Lock | Weather-Resistant Garden Shed for Backyard, Patio & Lawn Storage (White) | Perfect for Storing Lawn Mowers, Gardening Tools & Outdoor Equipment

I read tons of reviews before purchase, but at a cost of $219 this shed is an excellent value. I bought and built it myself (I am a 5’ 6” female). I saved HUNDREDS of dollars and took my time to construct it . Several reviews discussed the ways that they built this shed, but if you search for “Greesum Metal Storage Shed” online there is a 40 minute and 54 second video by UTECHPIA (building the smaller 5’ x 3’ shed solo) that I found extremely helpful. The shed isn’t EASY to build if you are inexperienced, but it is absolutely possible if you are patient, have the correct tools, and have the time and determination to devote to building. For a builder with experience, this shed build would be a piece of cake though. The build is completely logical.TIPS:1) FWIW, I did use an electric drill w screwdriver attachment instead of a ratcheting screwdriver and it saved a ton of time and strength. (TBH I started w/ a ratchet and changed after my arm got sore - so save time and start that way!). I was just VERY careful to set the torque low on my drill and to be careful not to strip the screws on tightening.2) I inventoried each piece of the build before I started, to make sure I had all the pieces, which I did. I read the instructions (e.g., looked at all the pictures) before starting. I did not inventory the screws/ fasteners because for the most part I could tell there were plenty.3) When installing the wall panels, I put a starter screw at the top, then attached the bottom screws first, which was more difficult to do since that part was close to the ground and were therefore harder to screw in (I lifted the very light shed frame up onto an incline to allow my drill to get low enough to reach each screw). FWIW, if you assemble the structure correctly which is not hard to do, ALL the holes match up. HOWEVER, it is important to stretch or push the metal slightly to fit, as it can get a bit shrunk and bent during packaging. None of the materials in my packaging were damaged. Because it’s thin sheet metal, it is easy to shape so all the holes line up. Take your time and wear the gloves so you don’t get cut by the metal.4) the instructions are sometimes tricky, so pay close attention to the holes that DO & which DO NOT get screwed in (at first) on the corner panels for the walls and roof. Otherwise you’ll have to undo and redo them, which I did the first time. Didn’t make that mistake twice.5) there is one error on the roof build instructions, or at least I THINK it was pictured backwards. The number 17 and number 18 front and back roof edge finishing pieces (which screw into the middle roof panel and are both around 3 to 4 feet long) appeared as reversed in the photo instructions I had. (The 18 piece is shorter, 17 slightly longer. ) Consequently, when I tried to put the roof supports around the edge of the roof panels, they appeared to be too long and jutted out too far past the corners of the roof. Just reverse 17 and 18 pieces, and then the side roof structure finishing pieces and corners will match.If you have ever built Ikea stuff you will be able to build this shed. Just pay CLOSE attention to the tiny holes pictured on the page and figure out what is top, bottom, front and back before you permanently affix each piece. And there’s nothing you can’t undo and redo, generally, if you must.The HARD part of this build was creating a level surface for my shed because my yard is on an incline (and I had no experience with a patio-making task). However, the finished product is a success. The shed withstood last night’s rain, and everything inside is water free. In the picture, you will see an IKEA Omar shelf, which fits well in this shed with room to spare. (See pics). I put a large piece of plastic for flooring inside, and it too was dry. I am very pleased with this shed.UPDATE - after several days of hard blowing rains, there was some water infiltration from (I believe) gaps at the roofline underneath the roof’s drip edge, which is short (the edge comes down only about an inch beneath the gaps. To cover the gap better, I purchased a $10 10-foot length 2.25” by 1.25” galvanized steel bent roof drip edge and two $0.72 pieces of 8” long, 4” by 4” folded galvanized flashing (because the drip edge piece wasn’t quite deep or long enough to cover front and back of the roofline) to act as a water diverter. If that solves the issue, great. If not, I will report back. :)Good luck!
