Shed has held up well through its first big rain and first big wind.
We had one piece that we installed upside down because the instructions didn’t make it clear as to how it was to be placed, however that was easily fixed.
Very happy with the shed.
Eric from Duramax was absolutely great. I had an issue with the delivery and Eric managed to resolve this with a local shipping company. He kept in close contact to ensure that the shed was delivered curbside. Do note that most delivery companies might struggle with delivery since its abnormally sized [Longer rather than wider] and does not fit correct on the liftgate
The Shed itself is awesome and easy to put together. Highly recommend. No leaks. Took 2 guys to put together in 3 days and instructions were straightforward.
This office shed is a fantastic example of how to blend modern aesthetics with functional workspace design. It maximizes a small footprint while feeling incredibly open thanks to the floor-to-ceiling glass.
Do note: That it gets pretty hot [CA] but I added a mini split AC and that helps with this
This isn’t just an office; it’s a mental reset every time I walk across the lawn and open the door. If you have the yard space, this is the best investment you can make for your career and well-being.
Surprised shed was super wary to assemble. I’m 76 years old and put it together by myself. Shed looks great, love the quality of materials. Glad I bought this shed.
Easy to build. Seems sturdy but waiting for the first wind storm to find out.
My garage is 4’ 4” away from the privacy fence. Talk about “dead” space. Constructing a pre-fab vinyl lean to shed was my best option.
The shed arrived in a million pieces. However, each piece is marked and the directions are spot on. Wait to drink beer when you’re finished!
As the shed was going together, it was extremely flimsy. However, as it gets constructed, it stiffen’s up and the finished product seems very sturdy.
I am very happy with the shed and the garden tool organization is underway!!

The shed was very easy to assemble.
We have not installed our shed as of yet but have another older Duramax shed which went together easily and looks almost as new as the day we bought it.
Liked the size and the look. It felt thin. But put altogether it seems fine.
I needed a shed that would fit in a narrow spot on the side of my house, and the Duramax SideMate Shed turned out to be perfect. At 4 feet deep and 10 feet wide, it fits the space exactly. You do have to duck a bit at the entrance, but the roof rises toward the back, which makes it feel more spacious once you’re inside.
This shed holds a lot more than I expected. Right now, I have a boxing bag, two bikes, six totes, and a Christmas tree stored inside — and I still have about a third of the space left.
Assembly took two people around 12 hours. Some parts of the instructions were a bit confusing, and we had to redo a few steps, but overall the build wasn’t too difficult once we got into the rhythm.
All in all, the SideMate Shed is sturdy, space-efficient, and exactly what I needed for my side yard storage.
Ordered this shed to put on our side yard to hold gardening tools and pots. Arrived quickly and we paid a company to install it. It took him, one person, about 2.5 hours to complete. We could have done it ourselves but it would have taken my husband and I much longer. Sometimes it’s better to pay someone. We love the shed. It’s streamlined shape and smaller footprint works well on our concrete side yard. It appears to be sturdy and well made. All items were in the box and it looks great. We don’t get much rain in Southern California so can’t speak to any leaks. I do not expect any. I expect that it will last many years. It holds quite a bit of items if you organize well. Satisfied with our purchase.
Purchased this same shed, must have about 15 years ago. Held up well until a tree came down in a storm a couple of months ago and took it out. So I purchased another one. It butts up against the larger wooden shed in my backyard.
So far so good after one week. Definitely a two person assembly process. Shed seems sturdy. I wonder about gaps in roof panels as far as leak potential.
Instructions are pictures only but well drawn. A LOT of of pieces. Should require 2 people to install.
Easy to assemble, looks great and good quality!
Be prepared to spend at least 12 hours on building this shed (with 3 adults). Don’t start putting up the walls if you don’t have at least 3 hours left in the day. One gust of wind comes and you’ll have bent poles and walls on the ground. Once it’s up it’s beautiful but it is a feat!
I love my shed, excellent price, good service, good quality, etc.
Thank you so much.
Well constructed and meets all my expectations. Will definitely recommend Duramax to friends and family.
It took a little bit to put together, but I’m happy with the purchase
Very pleased with my shed purchase and many neighbors and friends already inquiring where I made my purchase. I did put together myself and the 70+ page direction book made it easy step by step.
it was a little bit easy to but together. 2 people needed.
am enjoying it now
Good shed for the price. Looks nice assembled, make sure you pay attention to directions, and screw hole placement when assembling otherwise you’ll have to disassemble and reassemble. Took me about 14 hours to complete.
