“The product supplied was not joined/cut well - lots of 5/10cm chips from the wood, cuts made at one length, stopped then re-cut at a longer length, leaving missing areas of wood.
Half of the doors were bent out of shape, so fit at the bottom, but not at the top.
Instructions were good, fixtures and fittings ok.
Not worth the price it’s sold at.”
“This little shed is the perfect size for my small garden. I can fit the lawn mower and the garden fork, spade, hoe, rake etc in there too. The construction was easy enough for me and my daughter to do. The shed went together nicely following the instructions. The only problem was the 2.5 screws were missing but I had some in my toolkit so we got by.”
“SHIRE 8x8 Sun Pent Shed
Arrived damaged - split boards and marked sides.
Arrived unglazed - no mention of customer having to fit glass and beading.
Felt arrived as a roll and not 3 pre-cut sheets see A2555 x 3 in the instruction leaflet - see pages 6 & 16
Open knot holes in sides - poor overall quality.
Locking bar for both shed door knobs not drilled at right angle - so have had to re-drill hole to take the Locking Pin.”
“THE BUILDING LOOKS GOOD, CAME PROMPTLY AND DRIVER VERY HELPFUL. EASY TO ASSEMBLE
ORDERED 6 X 4 WAS DISSAPPOINTED IT CAME AS 6 X 3'6. I REALLY NEEDED THE FULL 4' WIDTH. NOW NOT SURE IF I CAN USE IT FOR THR ORIGINAL PURPOSE, DON'T KNOW WHY IT CAME AS 3'6"?
WOULD STILL BE HAPPY TO RECCOMMEND 'ELBEC GARDEN BUILDINGS' JUST BE MORE VIGILANT ON YOU SIZES”
“Delivery was on time and product quality very good.
Pergola built today by carpenter and only difficulty he experienced was size of uprights which were in between sizes of metal spikes he had bought to fix into ground. To avoid puutting some packing in larger size which he felt might cause posts to move in time, he changed to smaller size spike and shaved down bottom of posts to fit tightly.”
“It would have been helpful to have the list of individuals items for the summer house whilst the delivery guy was offloading....left me a difficult job to heck it afterwards”
“From first viewing to delivery the experience of buying my summerhouse has been very easy and enjoyable. I now look forward with great pleasure to using it.”
“Arrived just a pallet of loose pieces of wood not quite what I expected . Fairly easy to put up though and a few splits on panelling probably just as it was not packed very well . Still a decent shed and sturdy once up .”
