Keter Factor 8 x 6 ft Outdoor Storage Shed, Beige/Brown

The lockable Keter shed is fabulous. I looked at a lot of reviews of sheds of different kinds to replace two old wooden sheds in our garden which were falling to pieces. The shed came flat-packed in two large cardboard boxes. One corner had been damaged in transit, leading to three items needing to be replaced. I emailed the Keter customer service with photographs of the damage, and a very helpful lady called Linda kindly arranged for the three items to be replaced by courier within two days. Following completion of the shed, I packaged the damaged items up and she arranged for a courier to pick these up within two days as well (no charge to me in either case). I constructed a wooden base to raise the floor up from the new flagstones which we were having laid, but the floor of the shed can be placed directly onto a flat surface if drainage is not a problem. The manual supplied is detailed and concise (similar to one of the IKEA manuals). Each item is put up in turn and fixed using the screws and plastic bolts provided. Bolts are easily tightened manually, but I used a pair of pliers to give them an extra turn as I have arthritis in my thumbs. Two of us constructed the shed (myself and my wife), and did not have any problems fitting either the walls or the roof, which all slot into place after aligning with each other. As the construction is of pre-formed plastic, a couple of the wall sections had a slight bend in them, but this was twisted out easily and forms a tight fit once secured in place with the bolts. Final strengthening comes from self-tapping screws which secure all the panels vertically to the upright spines from the inside. The shed is fitted with one window (well-fitted and does not leak), and also two plastic shelves, easily fitted and appear firm. I've checked inside after two recent downpours and there is not a sign of water inside the shed at all. All in all we are well-pleased with our purchase, which looks great, and cannot fault the customer service we received from Linda at Keter. Would strongly recommend this item.

Ordered from Amazon Friday evening, received the following Sunday morning. Excellent service from the two delivery guys who man handled the two(very heavy)boxes through to my back garden. With much help of a neighbour we unpacked each box to check that all the components were there. The components were all clearly numbered to help with following the build instructions. At that point my neighbour asked if he could help with the assembly. I did not refuse and in truth I ended up assisting him. Building is pretty straight forward as everything lines up perfectly, but it is very important to follow the instructions in the sequence shown. I must stress that the assembly is best carried out by two people, some of the larger component are very light weight and would be difficult for a single person to handle even in a light breeze. With just a couple of breaks for refreshments, we were able to complete the build by 7:30 on that Sunday evening. Although some of the components appear flimsy when first unpacked, they become stronger as the build progresses into units. This is due to the clever design and precise manufacture. I suppose some would say a timber built shed would be more aesthetically pleasing, but the timber shed that this one's replaced had cost much to maintain. The maintenance free outdoor Keter storage box I bought some years ago has proved to be just that; maintenance free. I am confident that this Keter shed will prove to be the same, but will of course let you know if proved wrong. Quite chuffed with it, hence the picture.

Good size shed , took us 5 hours to assembly , but the plastics are uneven and the cut outs wasnt perfect so sometimes was tricky to click the parts together , but it all worked out on the end , if the cut outs would be made with good detail then if would be a bit faster , the instructions are very easy to follow , all parts was there plus few spares just in case , very pleased with how it looks but the quality could be a bit better for that price . Just shame you cant buy extra shelves as the one whats comes with the shed , as the one what are sold separately are completely different so it looks a bit odd and they are very expensive . But otherwise happy with the shed and the final effect .

Delighted with the shed, in the main, after a 12 week wait on backorder. Delivery and packaging were excellent and all parts were present and undamaged. I had already put down a plastic grid and shingle shed base and then assembled the shed on my own, dodging rain showers so it did span two half days. It has to be a lot easier with an assistant! I had to make do with a rubber mallet and some bungees. In the useful (Polish) 'how to' clip on YouTube, the guys simply pressed the eaves ends in with their fingers. Unfortunately, I presume as the consequence of a rush to resume production after Lockdown, the quality and sharpness of the some of the mouldings was disappointingly poor and I had to spend a while cutting away all the swarf and then needed to use several adjustable clamps and a lot of washing up liquid to get them to join up and deliver the 'clip' as promised in the instructions! Similarly the centre door hinge holes and slots for the door hasp had to be cleaned out with a craft knife before assembly, which did add to the time. My top tip - when putting up the wall parts, make sure the three centre verticals (part 'CS' with the galvanised strengtheners) have seated right down to the floor each time, or else you have a lot of fettling to do when trying to put on the spans ('D81(1)') above the assembled walls. I noted that in both the online videos I watched, they skipped over just how fiddly it is to fit those two bits; it is even fiddlier on your own. In summary, a decent shed, not too hard to put together, and excellent value at Amazon/Argos prices.

Acheté il y a 2 ans, je suis très satisfaite de cet abri de jardin Keter Factor. Le montage demande un peu de temps mais les pièces s’emboîtent bien et l’ensemble est robuste. Après 2 ans, il n’a pas bougé : résistant aux intempéries, ne se déforme pas et reste bien étanche. Pratique avec son grand espace de rangement et ses portes solides. Très bon rapport qualité/prix, je recommande sans hésiter.

Très bien et de bonne qualité 🙂 Satisfait à 100 pour 100

Ein sehr schönes, funktionales Gartenhaus mit viel Platz für Rasenmäher, Gartenstühle und Gerätsvhaften. Vorne quer passt ein Fahrrad hinein. Sehr gute Aufbauanleitung. Ich kann es empfehlen.

Il montaggio è stato relativamente semplice, considerando il fatto che ho dovuto farlo da solo (circa 6 ore), in due sicuramente è molto meglio. Il manuale è sufficientemente chiaro, all'inizio ci si sente un pò in affanno perchè gli step di montaggio sono parecchi (più di 50), ma una volta capita la logica tutto si velocizza. La qualità dei materiali sembra buona, l'unica cosa è che la struttura non è particolarmente solida per cui non aspettatevi di appoggiare contro le pareti materiali molto pesanti; detto questo, ci sta molto materiale se disposto in modo corretto. Tra l'altro proprio oggi ho avuto modo di valutare la tenuta all'acqua in quanto c'è stata una grandinata: all'interno nessuna traccia di acqua e la grandine non ha danneggiato nulla. Unica pecca il costo che ritengo un pò eccessivo, altrimenti avrei dato 5 stelle.
