 Don't waste your money Jul 21, 2008
By L. Ventimiglia
"Crazy Eye"
I have had this shed for less than one year. High temperatures here in the summer months reach high 90's with the occasional day at one hundred degrees. This shed is in partial shade during much of the afternoon, yet the heat buckled it so badly that it had to be wired back together---it actually popped apart! It became so warped that the top will not close.
Before that, during the winter, it contracted so much from the cold, (which, at worst, would be about 20 degrees at night) that spaces appeared at all the seams and water and snow went right in.
So, what good is a shed that literally pops apart and is not water resistant?
It is quite expensive and not at all reliable, unless, of course, you live in a mild climate where it is always balmy and never rains or snows.

 Its pretty good Aug 19, 2007
By Scott Pointon
"Former Marine, Librarian, Woodworker, Homebrewer"
My wife and I bought a new house with a small 2 car garage and I needed an attractive way to keep the garbage cans outside the garage. This Rubbermaid storage shed fit the bill perfectly. It provides a way for me to store 2 large trash cans outside without the worry of animals getting into them or rain filling the cans. Assembly was a snap (no tools required - took me 5 minutes). My only complaints are that the price was too much and that the plastic slot for the rod that supports the lid in the "up" position was not properly formed and I had to cut away a bit of plastic that escaped the factory mold.
Anyway, it serves its porpose and is fast to assemble so I am glad I have it!

 Great shed Oct 04, 2009
By C. Hausler
We've had our shed for years in a warmer part of California, it has held up well. We store outdoor furniture cushions and BBQ supplies in it. Convenient, easy to use. When assembling, use dish soap to moisten the joints and the pieces slide together better.

Storage Shed Oct 10, 2007
By Charles E. Ball
The product is exactly what I wanted. It was received with a part missing which was promply replaced by Rubbermaid. This item was shipped by Eagle Trucking. Their tracking was between "poor" and "useless" as the dates kept changing and was not delivered in the provided time frame. Had I not called Eagle, I do not believe it would have ever been delivered. When it was delivered the Eagle delivery personnel were extremely curtious and placed it per my request.

Perfect small Storage Aug 15, 2009
By J. L. Holloway
This item was exactly what we were looking for. Fits together well, keeps out the rain and looks nice for what you pay for. Relatively inexpensive, we use it to store our cushions for our outdoor furniture. Keeps them dry and looking brand new. Exactly what we needed.
When you assemble this make sure you slide the back pieces together, I was tired and not thinking clearly when I was doing it and kept trying to snap them in place. After sweating about 5lbs of water weight out in the summer sun, a lot of four letter words, and 30 minutes of my time, my wife came out looked at it for about 30 seconds and said why don't you slide them in place? Yea, as a man, I am not proud of this, but she was right and we got it set up in less than 5 minutes.
Overall, a great purchase, we are very happy with it and I know it will last a long time.
