2x4basics Shed Kit, Barn Style Roof Review

2x4basics  Shed Kit, Barn Style Roof
Average Reviews:

First, let me quantify what I use this shed for. I have goats and this is their home. I was going to use it for chickens but, the goats got here first and I will buy another when the chickens get here.
This is the ultimate kit. Yes the instructions are a little vague but if you've ever built a Tamiya model, this will be a walk in the park. The only complaint I have is the frame kit is advertised as sturdy, well it is if you consider tin sturdy. They bend easily and will be needed to be hammered straight. It is the only fault with this kit. However, no matter how flimsey the frames are, they will stiffen once secured to the boards.
One last thing worth noting. It really helps to have the angles at 90 degree to help keep things together. Oh, and if you have animals, make sure you fasten the inside wood before you enclose the structure as if you use plywood like I do, the peice of plywood will not fit (of course it will probably help if my corners were a true 90 degrees).

2x4basics Easy-Up Enclosure Kit, Black Review

2x4basics  Easy-Up Enclosure Kit, Black
Average Reviews:

I recently built an EASY UP to store my lawn tractor behind my garage. The directions were simple to follow and I liked not having to cut any angles. Project was completed in less than two hours. Used treated lumber and coated wood screws. Covered the entire structure with a used billboard cover made of poly coated canvas - plain white side out - purchased for $20.00 I think this thing will last for years.
I rated it four stars because I think they could have made the hardware a little stronger.

ShelterLogic 6x6x6.5 E Series Shed (Gray) Review

I purchased the Shed In A Box to use in astronomy. I tried several tents and none worked well. Then I discovered Shed In A Box and decided to give it a try. It was a good move. Shed In A Box is made of steel pipes that all fit together easily and they stay that way even when moved. The covering is made of thick and strong plastic that so far has weathered heavy rains and wind. The only problem I see when using this as just a shed to store equipment is that rain can run under the bottom edges and get the ground wet underneath the stored equipment. But in most cases this is not a problem. My use for my Shed In A box is in astronomy. It is just the right size for one person to move. With it fully assembled I can pick it up and move it to where I want. It does a great job protecting me from the elements. When it is very cold I go inside and with my Heater Buddy I am warm and cozy. My telescope is just outside the enclosure with cables running between the two. Shed in a box is easy to assembly. I assembled the whole thing in about 2 hours. Since I move the enclosure each time I observe I had to make some modifications. I added braces across the bottom of both the front and back to maintain the correct size and to make it more rigid. To make it more air tight I modified the way the covering is attached. I am also adding a window in the front so I can see the movement of my telescope when I am inside. This enclosure was designed to be in fixed position with stakes in the ground. But using it as an astronomical hut works great. I can walk into the enclosure and stand up without hitting my head. I am 5 foot 11 inches tall. It will accommodate two observers with their equipment very comfortable. Since I am not using Shed In A Box as it was intended I lowered the rating to 4 because there were modification I had to make to suite my needs. As for using it as a shed to store equipment like lawn mowers, I would give it 5 stars. I also talked to customer service at ShelterLogic and they were quick and very helpful. If you need is just to store garden equipment this is a great choice. In my case the use is different and with some modification it is a great choice for astronomy observing. It is a great buy.

ShelterLogic 12-Feet Super Max Canopy Accessories Enclosure Kit Review

Good addition to the canopy, but lacks corners. I made my own out of flashing but seems a little crazy to not build them in. Bottom of walls are not easily connected.
Over all it worked for my purpose.
