I ordered the 12x10 shed. Cant fault them for delivery in fairness but the quality of the product is terrible - I would argue its not fit for purpose. The wood is flimsy, there is no support and nothing fits, there is a 70mm gap in the doors and the list goes on. The (laughingly) windows are the flimsiest perspex I have ever seen!!!!! If I get a couple of years out of it I will be staggered! I am kicking myself for not spending a bit more. Avoid this company like the plague.

Absolutely terrible company, avoid! Bits missing, offshore call centres. At least 15 phoncalls to get it right!

The product was terrible. I've made quite a bit of furniture around the house and thought this would be easier and higher quality than using old pallet wood to knock up a shed. Bad idea. The wood is poor, the assembly is poor, the design is poor. To rub salt in the wounds I find out that I've missed a single step out of 70+ which has made completing it more difficult. In the context of how terrible the whole thing's been that's just one more straw though. I'm at the point of considering burning what I paid £400 for. The wood's so bad I wouldn't be able to reuse it for anything else and the shed is so far from straight, square and reasonably water tight that I can't see me keeping it. Gutted I hadn't looked harder for reviews from this particular site first.

I bought my shed almost a year ago and started emailing the company in april about all the problems I had and that were developing as the shed was up a few months . The shed was delivered with the gable ends in 3 panels hence there is no support it just bows when you lean on the middle with nothing supporting the 3 parts . The doors have a 3/4 inch gap in them they dont fit either doors fit and have a gap that lets the water in. There is one rotten panel that was wet and soggy within 2 months . The Premium guttering I paid extra for does not fit this shed or tilt enough to actually drain any water into a waterbut. This shed has been made from very new un seasoned wood that has mad my shed have a huge amount of ventilation and gaps with the wholes i it. There is also evidence that the batons on roof panels have been used before . I have spent £300 erecting the shed and £200 reflecting the shed as the pins were so small and felt such poor very thin quality it lasted only 6 weeks and the felt I bout was at least double he tickles and good quality . I took 3 days painting the shed in and out before it was erected so this isn't a simple task of sending me a know panel for the rotten one and replacing the doors as who will pay to take the shed down to replace the sid panel and re erect it all again and repaint it and pay for the paint . I tried to email the company in fact there is 27 emails between now and April this year . Each reply is from a different person saying could I explain the problem and give me the part number of the part I want replacing and apologising for the bad service. I then get other emails that say we are sorry but we cannot view the previous emails ( even though I can see them all ) can you tell us the problem !!!!! which i have done in many emails with many photos

Very poor service, driver couldnt find address on initial delivery. Second delivery was missing 1 item, sent second item parts missing. Very difficult to contact due to off shore call centre, matter still not resolved after over a month since order. Seriously avoid this company.

The worst online company I have ever dealt with. Customer service appalling. Call centre in the Phillipines and very difficult to understand what they were saying. Basically they just ignore you sent emails no reply. I now going to cancel my order, don,t expect this to be easy either. They also failed to deliver when stated after taking a day off work.
