Spectacular value

Posted by Steve on 15th Nov 2022

I'm blown away by this shed that I'm using as a home office. Took about 3 weeks to arrive in CA. It was a blast to install, with the main body taking about a day. I added a hardwood floor and a layer on the roof with insulation (you can't insulate the walls). I added the extra double window, although it needed adjustments to the supporting boards to fit properly. Door is very nice, but the wood is very green, and the resulting warp is drafty and requires some insulation (on that note...you must build IMMEDIATELY upon receipt because the wood is so green). The shed is HUGE and high quality. I may have the nicest office in the company now, and at an amazing price!

We had a great experience from beginning to end. We got our shed fast and the driver was great and very helpful. It was easy to set up and their customer service was fantastic with all the questions we had. We are VERY VERY pleased with our purchase!

Shed review

Posted by Adam on 27th Jun 2020

First: The customer service was outstanding! Because I'm pretty inexperienced with this sort of thing, I emailed repeatedly with questions and always received fast and helpful replies, often with useful illustrations. The construction is as easy as promised. Everything made sense and went together easily. Instructions say two people can do it. Probably true, but with limited experience and local temperatures in the high 80s, we found it helpful to have a third pair of hands sometimes -- just for hauling lumber and especially for raising the gables. The shed looks terrific and is very tight and solid. Highly satisfied.

Sheds with finished interior

The inside of your shed is finished with smooth milled wood and smells like a fresh conifer forest. Due to the unique construction type, there is no exposed framing that needs drywall or other finish. You can move in immediately! Stain your shed interior for a splash of color or white-wash for a modern designer look. Turn it into a garden shed, home office, workshop, playhouse, art studio, or anything you can imagine.
Shed care and personalization

Your shed is made of natural wood! Easily personalize it and set up to fit your needs and style. Paint or stain the outside to protect the wood. Paint and polyurethane are wonderful options in harsher climates (think torrential rains, etc.), and exterior wood stain works well in gentler climates.

It's made of solid wood, thus you can modify it as needed to run conduits for electrical and insulate the roof and/or floor to make it energy efficient. It's incredibly versatile!
Easy to assemble DIY shed kit

All our models are designed as do-it-yourself shed kits with easy-to-follow manuals and step-by-step video instructions - it s not just easy but also a fun DIY project.
To begin, your shed needs a level and firm base for a foundation to stay upright for the years to come. Then, only basic tools are needed, and it takes a weekend to assemble a gorgeous natural wood shed kit. If you have any technical questions, folks at customer support are a phenomenal help!
Long lasting wood garden sheds

We use only FSC-certified Norway Spruce lumber, which is well-known for its durability and strength compared to Southern Pine. Buildings around Eastern Europe and Scandinavia made from this wood still stand 200 years later.
These tough little sheds withstand winds up to 75 mph and hold a foot of snow without any reinforcements. Since they are made of real wood, you can make needed modifications in harsher environments. Fun fact - our sheds are "self-adjusting" in some sense, and do well in small earthquakes!
You are in great hands

Our customer service, pre-sale and post-purchase, is exceptional, and our reviews prove it. You always communicate with genuine and friendly humans based in the US with expert know-how of the sheds and their construction.
Our family-owned mill is located in the heart of Lithuania, and has been operating since 1996, manufacturing beautifull sheds, cabins, pool houses and other storage and alternative living solutions for customers all around Europe and Scandinavia. In 2009 we introduced our quality sheds to the US where our customers continue to appreciate the superior craftsmanship and great design.
Nontocxic eco-friendly sheds

Our shed kits are made of 100% natural, FSC-certified wood and are not treated with toxic preservatives. Raw wood ensures a safe and eco-friendly environment for people and other living beings. Most shed makers use engineered wood materials that contain huge concentrations of formaldehyde and are toxic to you and the environment. These materials are not meant for our living spaces.
It takes approximately one mature tree to make a 10'x10' shed. To offset the impact, we give 25 times more to nature by planting 25 trees in your name for each purchase made.
