No reasons or updates provided and it ended up being delivered 5 days late after the long weekend.”

“Relatively easy to erect with help, found some nails in the roof where they missed the frame resulting in them sticking through, a couple of pieces slightly warped, but often expectedwith wood, lovely and cosy inside and liked the option of being able to chop and change the design. We put in a cat flap as it used as a cat house, they love it especially when it's sunny”

“I'm a competent woodworker so I did the best job I was able to with the quality of the overlap timber. Quite a lot of warped wood, not planed or finished, hence lots of splinters.
A little disappointing, I'm hoping it keeps the shed contents dry but it seems unlikely. Too many gaps.
I now wished I'd paid a bit more for a better quality unit.”
Good Afternoon,
Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent experience with our product.
We understand your disappointment with the building that has been delivered. Warping can certainly affect construction, and we are sorry that this has impacted your project. Warping is a natural effect of all timber, which is a result of rapid changes in moisture levels and weather temperatures, although it is not a detrimental effect on the structure's integrity. If you need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Care Team.
Kind Regards,
elbec Garden Buildings

“Good value budget shed. A lot of repairs required on panels due to nails used during fabrication process having split the cladding. Hinges and locking hasp very flimsy and required replacing and updating. Roof felt very thin and again required updating. In hindsight the additional outlay could have gone to purchasing a more robust and better quality shed.”

“Great looking greenhouse, perfect size, absolutely awful to put together!! We have put together many sheds, storage boxes, playhouses, greenhouses, coops and hutches over the years, but this one took us 3 days!! Things that needed screwing on but 3 steps later told you to take it off again, bits that made no sense at all, bits that don't fit together properly and instructions that were about 40 pages long 🤦‍♀️ Definitely won't be buying this brand again”

“Purchased the greenhouse from Elbec. Design good. Building instructions terrible. Hardware poor quality. Structure quality not as good as I expected. The back section was warped & some of the wood of inferior quality. Shelves didn't fit & had to be altered. Better than many others on the market but still not good enough.”

“Firstly order didn't arrive on the day it was supposed to, having got up before 7am, at age 80 and waited 'till 7pm on the evening before I could leave the house to walk my dog which left me to walk her in the dark!
There was no apology just a text message days later to say my order had been rearranged and when it did arrive there were 6 pieces missing. Had to wait several more days for them to arrive.
The person I was paying to do the work to install it for me had to rearrange his work schedule due to firstly it not arriving until a week later than it should have and then another revisit due to the order being incomplete !!!!
Not impressed at all with service and AFTER sales service.
The quality in itself is faultless hence me giving the rating I have.
The quality”

“The shed was a value 15' x 10' and was fairly easy to assemble, came with "most" parts and was delivered promptly and updated throughout.
3 stars as the shed had wrong size felt, it was swapped but a week apart so had to waterproof temporarily in between, yhr felt nails are too small for the felt so had to purchase 16mm felt nails”

“The planter we bought wasn't up to standard. and was imperfect.... we are really disappointed and cannot recommend to others.......some of the issues
The screw holes didn't match up
The Gaps inbetween the panels varied greatly!
Gaps at the corners they didn't meet up flush.
The shelf inside should have fitted in easy after assembly, but we had it saw some off it to fit it inside and put liner in.
We didn't want an 'imperfect' one and wasn't told it was when we rang to order one. And was told
It was a special price ending that day. It also wasn't in packs & just delivered in lose pieces off the van.
Our regular gardener/landscaper didn't feel satisfied with the end result, and it took him several hours longer than it should have done to assemble, he was disappointed he couldn't do the job to his usual high standard because of the faults .
