Great shed for the money

I am a single female and I put this together by myself with absolutely no help whatsoever from anyone else. That is how easy it was. I was missing a few of the parts in my box but after contacting Sears they made it easy to replace and send the missing parts with no hassle.  Well worth the money. ...

Most Helpful Critical Review

I bought the Suncast Vertical Storage Shed online and picked it up at the store.  It looked like the box had been opened and resealed, but I assume that was for inspection.  I think I was wrong.  It went together pretty easily, except the top was slightly warped and the doors scrape against it whenever...

Suncast Vertical Patio Storage Shed Reviews

The Suncast vertical patio storage shed was extremely easy to assemble and surprisingly sturdy for something made of plastic. If you add a shelf, long-handle garden tools will not fit. It should be taller. It was a good buy at $99.99 with my Craftsman Club card.

We were looking for something not too expensive to store our pool supplies in and another to store our garden tools in to keep out of the reach of our grandchildren and to get rid of some of the clutter in the garage.  These sheds worked well for this.  They were easy to put together, just the right size, don't have any sharp edges, they can lock shut, and are lightweight.  I'm not sure how long they will hold up, especially the one we have outside of the garage, but for now they really suit our needs.

Great Pricing

This makes my second vertical storage and I love them both. They are used outside for rakes, shovels, and all kinds of storage that cannot be brought indoors nor do I have the space in my garage. They are light, roomy and and look stylish in the back yard. And..Sears had a great sale on them. I would recommend one(or two)to any one.

Put the cabinet together and found the top was warped and sagged in the center to the point where the doors could not be opened. I attempted to contact Suncast customer service on three seperate occassions via email and did not get any response. Regretfully I would never recommend this product to anyone due to warped components and lack of customer service by the manufacturer.

made in USA

Upon reading reviews and Sears had it on sale, I picked one up in my Chevy Tahoe. Not any room to spare because of the length. Instructions were good but upon assembling I could not get the two sides to clip together properly to the back. Only managed to snap two clips on each side and once it's clipped in, there is no taking it apart. Also had difficulty snapping in the door hinges. I was considering buying another larger Suncast but because of the clip situation I am researching other sheds. Overall, for the price and good looks of this small shed I would recommend it to store rakes etc.

Nice Storage Solution for the Price

This is a great storage solution for storing shovels, rakes, string trimmers, and other gardening tools. Setup was somewhat simple however instructions could be a bit more descriptive. Would have like to have seen an internal brace between the two side panels in order to make the cabinet sturdier. Overall nice product.

I had no issues putting the cabinet together by myself.  This will eventually be under some cover, protected from the winter wind and rain, but right now it is fully exposed.  The bit of summer rain we've had hasn't gotten in at all and our pet food and bird seed is safe from weather and pests, and the smaller garden tools are kept handy and out of reach of grandkids.  I recommend this cabinet for anyone with similar storage needs.

Roomy

This garden shed is much roomier than it appears. It is very compact yet stores my rakes, shovels, gardening supplies, etc. The price is excellent, and it was extremely simple to assemble. A great sturdy shed at a great price.

Suncast Vertical Tool Shed

I bought 2 of them five years ago and loving it. Good look and good price. I even added a shelf just by picking up couple of 1x6 pine boards from OSH. Today, After my son got married I decided to pick up 2 more because of all the wedding gifts piling up in my living room. Sears' shop on line and pick-up at store is fantastic! Ordered them after dinner and pick them up within one hours.

Wish it had shelves

It's a good product for outdoor garden storage. It did not take up much space at all (I have a small garden), I put it against a wall under a tall tree. It would have been perfect if it had shelves!

Good but

Is as advertised BUT the guy who wrote the assembly instructions never saw the unit or these are old instructions. Yes, the unit is warped when it arrives (sides are sort of caved in,) so you have to wedge them open to mate with the base. Still a good value for the cost. Long arms or two people help with the assembly.

Suncast Vertical Shed

Bought 2 of these and they went together well. Some panels were slightly warped but have straightened out since being assembled. I put a small set of snap together plastic shelves from WalMart in one and store hoses, spray ends, etc. in it. The other is used for rakes, shovels, long handle tools. Both work perfectly! Only problem has been with wind, have found both blown over in strong winds. Fastened both to house, (as recommended in instructions), no wind problems. Will be getting the 4ft X 2 1/2ft matching garden shed for more storage. Am Very Pleased with these!!!
