Power Sheds review

I have not been paid by Power Sheds to write this review. This is purely my own opinion of the shed that I purchased from them.

After looking at a variety of sheds in local garden centres and online and reading dozens of reviews I settled for a shed from Power Sheds. All the reviews were extremely positive and the prices seemed very reasonable. My current 10ft by 8ft workshop is on its last legs and is far bigger than I need now so I ordered an 8ft by 4ft Pent from Power Sheds. It arrived on a pallet and was very securely packed. The first thing we noticed was the superb quality of the pieces.  It's not a flimsy bit of kit. We took it into the garage and spent a few days painting each piece with Cuprinol in Willow which is a lovely soft green. As soon as weather permitted we set to and put it together.  If we had both been taller and younger it would have been an absolute doddle. Two, sixty something, short people (less than 5ft 3) each with a dodgy knee were perfectly able to put it together with ease. It took us all day but  that was no fault of the shed pieces which fitted together like a dream.  I have two tiny little gripes...

1) The windows are a bit leaky in the corner... easily solved with a bead of silicon

2) The lock on the door was on the wrong side of the door for me. We flipped the door upside down to put it on the side we wanted and of course this meant that the lock was now upside down. I took the lock off and put it up the correct way but the drilled hole now wasn't in line with the lock.. It's no big deal I simply put the lock back on upside down and we just need to remember which way the key turns now

Would I recommend Power Sheds...   Absolutely without hesitation. It's a cracking shed for the money and will be ideal for storing garden tools and some of my craft materials.

Not quite finished at this point.
