This is the second shed we bought - the first one is perfect for storing the lawnmower and all of our garden tools (rakes, trimmer, edger, shovels, spreader) and bought a second one to hold seasonal items (Christmas decorations, patio furniture and umbrella) and free up our space in the garage. We have them sitting on the side of our house and the colors match our siding very well. Assembly was fairly easy (though much easier and faster with a second pair of hands).
The Suncast building is high quality, easy to assemble, sturdy, and looks great. I was impressed with everything from the packaging & instructions to the quality of the parts and construction. It looks great, and is very functional with two large doors. The only things I would have preferred is another 6" in depth would have allowed my riding lawnmower to fit too, and the Sears store didn't have extra shelf and tool hangers in stock. I'm very happy with the building and would recommend it to anyone.
I purchased this little gem earlier this year so that I could have a place of my own to store all my garden related goodies (potting soil, pots, gloves, shears, rakes, brooms, a small manual mower, etc, etc, etc and even my dog's kiddie pool). While it is small, which shouldn't be unexpected with a 7.5 x 3 footprint, I think it's just perfect. Of course, I did get the shelf set (which is essential if you really want to maximize the space) and I'm also considering the bracket/hooks.
In terms of assembly, my husband put it together for me (by himself) in part of an afternoon without much...

TOGETHER. ITS THE PERFECT FOR ANYONE WHO HAS A SMALL YARD.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHED.
It was a bit challenge to build on a windy day. :)
Great storage capacity.
I purchased the shed online at sears.com and was told that it was in stock at my local Sears store. I picked up the shed the next day but didn't have the time to assemble it until the following weekend. The instructions were very clear to understand and the total assembly time, for me, was less than 2 hours. The instructions did indicated that 2 people should put the shed together, but I managed it myself with no problems. When it comes time for the roof, use a ladder, it makes it easier. If you are short (less than 5'8"), I would recommend having a second person for the roof. I'm 6'1" and had...

I am very happy with the ease of putting this thing together. If I had to build another, I could probably do it in less than an hour (not including the foundation of course) by myself. There are certain parts that would have been easier with 2 people, but it was not a big deal by myself. I used a step ladder to complete the roof, but the rest was just snap the pieces together.
Just finished putting the shed together. Took my wife and I about 3 1/2 hoursand we're in our mid 60's. Looks great, seems very sturdy. Had a couple of issues and had read about both from other reviewers; 1) parts G&H are preassembled from the factory, but not the way they need to be. Very misleading. I thought they shorted me the "H" part. Finally found they were together. You'll need to take G&H apart and re-assemble them correctly. 2) The left door should be the one to open first since the right one has the top/bottom latches. Can't open the left one first - it has the weather seal molded...
