Keter Darwin Outdoor Apex Double Door Garden Storage Shed 6 X 4ft Brown Wood Look And Feel | Fade Free | All Weather Resistant | Safe And Secure | Zero Maintenance | 15 Year Warranty

As it’s plastic, (which seems good quality) you never need to treat it or paint it and obviously waterproof. The colour is fine too. No leaks, instructions very clear, perfect size and great value for money, what more do you want! Only down side would be you can’t swap the doors around to have it open up on the other side first. But that’s not really a deal breaker.

Perfect amazing instructions are pretty rubbish when it came to the middle metal beams I still don't know if I have done them correctly. But it's strong and looks amazing.

Bought this to replace my 30 year old wooden shed. Hopefully last shed I buy being plastic. Good size for all the gardening tools and mower. Great finish being likened to wood. Glad we had it delivered to the door as the box is heavy. Not put up yet waiting for better weather. Instructions are very good but the roof sections seem complicated. See how it goes !! Very well made and looking forward to erecting. Whether we end up in divorce courts is another matter, haha. We are both seventy years of age so will take our time. The base to go on is where the old shed was being flagged already. So 6x4 fits exactly. Very pleased with price as same shed in well know diy store is a lot dearer. Read that Keter are a good make and up to now I agree.

Brilliant shed easy to assemble,would recommend

Grabbed this while it was on sale (£299) to replace a slightly larger timber shed that was incorrectly installed by the previous owners of the house and starting to rot. This arrived in a single box which is quite bulky and heavy to move, Amazon’s delivery was fantastic however leaving it in the garden even though no one was there to instruct them. The box did have everything included, a couple of panels did have some scuffs on them but I wasn’t going to go through the hassle of asking for them to be replaced, just tried to use them for panels facing the fence. Assembly was relatively simple, took around 5 hours on my own (Would be a lot easier with an extra pair of hands, but I was rushing to get it built before expected rain so did it on my own). The instructions are relatively straightforward and easy to follow, just take your time and read them again if you get stuck. The most difficult parts to assemble are: 1- getting the second roof panel of each side to slide into position without either breaking the panel itself, or your own fingers, it takes a lot of patience and do try to avoid hitting the ends too hard with a mallet, you will ‘crush’ them if not careful. 2- Screwing the door hinges into the metal frame, this was incredibly frustrating and took too much time for no good reason, the pre-drilled holes are simply drilled too small for the screws provided, using the 3 mm drill bit didn’t make them any better, and using the 4 mm made them too big, so it was between using plastic plugs to get the screws to bite, or wait for the next day to grab some different screws, I went for the plastic plugs and the doors are still standing. The shed looks good once assembled, the doors did line-up with little effort (Wouldn’t have any issues on a solid base, my advice? Do NOT install PVC sheds on a gravel base, unless the base is guaranteed to be 110% level), and make sure you anchor it well, it is super light and will most likely be blown away if the wind was at the right speed and direction. The shed should be a lot easier to maintain compared to timber ones, but the compromise is the stability of it, it is very risky to lean anything on the walls like I did in the old timber one, you can literally feel the whole structure leaning when you do that (Even a lightweight bike on the wall, I soon took it off and had the bike rest on a heavy box in the shed instead). It has so far proved to be watertight after a few torrential downpours, weather is also turning a bit Autumnal and Winter will test its frost proofing capabilities. I am generally happy with it and would recommend it, will also update if encountered any issues in the future, otherwise please assume all is well.

Save your time and money. This is an awful product. The slot together sections are awful, didn’t align with the screw area! Flimsy plastic in areas that should be strong. Broken areas. The roof is a joke, how any one is expected to bend thick plastic in to the slots is beyond me. The build instructions were strange, missing labels etc expecting you to be on a ladder whilst bending plastic in to grooves. One side of the roof will not go in due to thickness and is ridged, it needs to bend the opposite way. The base section isn't screwed in! Honestly I have never been so angry in my life, an entire day wasted calling Amazon and Keter, asking for replacement parts to then find the roof has gaps on edges which would allow water in. So it’s going in the bin. Amazon were good and refunded, however I now have to dispose of this myself. I have built many items in my time, I enjoy it! This however was a waste of time and money. AVOID AT ALL COST!

Good shed, but assembly needs care The Keter shed is a good-quality product once it’s fully built, but you need to be careful during assembly. Make sure you don’t drop any parts on the floor, as some pieces can get damaged easily. The top section is the hardest part to manage. The easiest way is to remove the white top piece first, place all four top panels in position, and then screw the white piece back on. If you don’t do it this way, you might struggle or even break something.

I cannot mark this shed down as the finished build is solid and does the job, Keter is always a brand that you can trust with outdoor storage. I built it on my own which did make the roof a challenge but that is my fault for not asking for help..... My only issue is the locking area, the handle unit is very low profile so when you go to fit a padlock the place to feed the shank is very narrow and only thin padlocks fit well. I had a slightly fatter combination padlock which essentially got wedged when put on the door, making unlocking more difficult, however buying a thinner padlock resolved this issue. Later I actually riveted a rasp lock on the door latch unit which has allowed me to use any padlock so crisis averted. I cannot mark the shed down as it is just my choice of padlock that created the issue.
