Flamaker Storage Shed (5 x 3 FT, Brown)

NOTE: It's thin sheet metal and nothing is threaded (nor should one expect it to be) - this means the metal is soft and the screws will strip very easily, so if you don't want to go buy larger sheet metal screws and/or drill new holes and/or buy a boat load of machine screws with nuts, don't rush it.Don't overtighten the screws. In fact, I'd go so far as to say, use the fewest number of screws you can to get it standing, then when you're sure you put it together correctly, add the extra screws (guess how I figured that one out...)Assembly not recommended for people with dyslexia (without supervision..) It wasn't till the screw holes didn't light up at all that I realized I had started putting the roof on backwards - most of them DID line up which is why I suggest not screwing everything down right away.The door latch is meh. I suspect the noisy sheet metal is more of a deterrent than the actual lock is (I don't actually care about that bit personally for my usage). Kind of wish the door opened the other direction - and it probably wouldn't be all that hard to modify but because the metal is all so thin, it might do not-so-nice things to the structure if the door is hanging backwards...I suppose you could say that was the list of "cons".Worth the buy though. 5x3 fills up in a hurry, but so far so good. Doesn't seem like it'd be especially weather proof, but I guess it's all in the way the roof panels are laid out as it's rained and I haven't gotten any leakage (yet).Suggest using the little plastic protectors for the sheet metal screws when you've got it all put together. They're sharp and they hurt. That said, the protectors are very annoying to put on (but undoubtedly get the job done).Also, for those of you (such as myself) for whom this is not a fixed installation (i.e., no concrete pored etc.), 4 cinder blocks was plenty to keep it in place. I got myself some plastic interlocking floor panel thingys and set the whole thing on those and so far so good. I actually put 8 cinder blocks down, but only because I already had them. Mine's also butt up against a fence, so even when it gets windy, most of it's going to be blocked by my fence and you can pretty easily (albeit a bit awkward) pick the whole thing up with one hand (I recommend 2 or more hands ;-) )

Overall I gave it a 4/5 because it suits my needs and is at a good price point. Assembling this beast is a two man job and took several hours. ISSUES: 1) Based on the insane amount of strapping and packing tape, and the appearance of the contents of the package, it seems like this product may have been opened before, possible a return. 2) The package contained two "B2" elements and was missing "B1". 3) the panels are rather small and hence there are many of them. I suppose this was done to make it easier to package, but I would've felt better if the roof was one continuous panel. 4) Most of the panels and other elements are covered in a plastic film, much of which had minor scuffs and tears. It is not clear if this plastic was supposed to be removed (not easy) or if it is part of the weather-proofing. 5) The instructions could use improvements, specifically I installed the "L" elements backwards and had to undo some work to put them in correctly. The illustrations were ambiguous (my opinion). 6) Despite slotted holes in the panels, not all the holes lined up. And some of the small holes were missing. I fixed it by drilling a few holes of my own. ON THE PLUS SIDE: 1) the package had ample hardware in case you lose a screw or two. 2) Once I got it together, I was happy with it. I'm going to leave it empty for now to see how well it handles the rain.

Cheap and functional. A little smaller than advertised but works just fine

Si buscas seguridad, no te sirve. Pero para guardar cosas no está mal por el precio. Aunque me llego un poco maltratado. La calidad no es muy buena.

I like the product itself. However I was sent the wrong items and the directions were hard to follow. As a person who build a lot of things from ikea, target, Walmart and mostly Amazon- I have a lot of experience. My husband and I struggled tk build this and had to force a lot of the holes since MANY did not line up correctly. I was not too happy with that part but the finished product is not so bad.

It's parts are mismatched and quality and sturdiness is wordy took me 3 days to assemble.

Shed went together easy, wish they added a striker plate for the door to close against on the sides . If your looking for theft proof this isn't the Shed for you . As far as keeping things dry it does well.

Poor design, and it appears to be of very low quality. It's suitable for those with limited space. The holes didn't align, and it took a professional nearly 5 hours to assemble. I ended up spending twice the product's price due to the mismatching of the holes. Returning it is not an option because it was already 80% assembled when I discovered the hole misalignment, and I had to pay extra to have new holes drilled. and also you have to pay $45 return shipping cost (Smart Seller).
