The 8×12 Cedar Sunshed Garden Shed is a spacious, multi-functional structure designed to bring light, style, and versatility to your outdoor space. Whether used as a greenhouse, creative studio, hobby room, or elegant storage solution, this Canadian-made shed blends practical features with natural charm. With 569 cubic feet of interior space and one wall reaching 85" in height, the Sunshed offers plenty of room for gardening, potting, or organizing supplies. The 31" wide Dutch door adds character and flexible ventilation, while eight functional aluminum windows with screens and locks provide ample airflow and keep pests at bay. A 6mm twin-wall Polygal panel on one side of the roof fills the interior with filtered natural light—ideal for starting seedlings or working on creative projects. The opposite side can be customized with a standard plywood, metal, or Western Red Cedar shingle roof to match your outdoor aesthetic. Inside, a 16" deep L-shaped full-wall workbench offers dedicated workspace for planting, hobbies, or storage. Constructed from premium Western Red Cedar, the Sunshed is naturally resistant to rot, decay, and insects. It ships panelized with pre-cut, pre-drilled components for fast and easy assembly. The shed is sustainably made in Canada, ready to ship in 3–5 business days, and backed by a 3-year limited warranty. If you're looking for a functional yet inspiring backyard retreat, the 8×12 Cedar Sunshed delivers lasting beauty, durability, and creative potential.

The shed was easy to assemble, and customer service was great! The materials are also good quality, and the finished product looks really good. However, I live in a rainy climate (Oregon), and the shed has some issues with moisture. I read this in reviews before I bought it, and used a ton of extra caulking on every joint for that reason. However, the water seeps through the siding (the roof overhang is inadequate to keep water off the walls), through the roof itself, and the skylight portion especially - no matter how well sealed you make the joints with silicone, the lap boards there just aren't waterproof. The water will seep through them, into the joists, and into the walls. I'll likely have to put a new roof on it just to keep the water out. If you live in a dry climate, or somewhere with light rain, it'd probably be fine. But for the Pacific Northwest, you'll want to give the moisture some serious consideration.

We love the shed. Putting the shed together was more difficult than other reviews said it was. We had several shingles and boards that were very thin or split in shipment, but they were replaced. We also went to a local hardware store and bought additional press board for the floor because a couple of prices of the floor sent was so thin it bowed when we walked on it. Customer service was darn good about replacing the small peices of wood.
