    Got one from Argus. Came in a really tiny box. Took a day to assemble.
    You need to construct a solid concrete base to put it on (not supplied of course).
    They tend to be very small for the price - read dimensions carefully so you have enough room for your purpose.

    Walls were very thin and light, - sliding door a little ropey. We had to strengthen our walls and door with wood paneling inside.

    Overall Not too bad though once up.

    Built a 12 X 20 steel shed. Angle iron frame and sheeted with cladding. Felt under the roof to stop any drips and one clear sheet on the roof for light. Single hindged door wide enough for ride-on. Bolted to concrete slab and then inside filled up 1.5 inches to keep floor dry. 3 long days to complete. One to dig out base and one to fill foundation and pour concrete. Took two of use one full day to weld frame, paint it and attach cladding. You can get the cladding cut to measure. Very pleased with result. Blends well into background and good storage space. Half the price then buying one too.
