“This is a high quality product which I liked because the cedar blended in well with my log home. The shed arrived in two packages without damage. The instructions for assembly were clear and I appreciate that I was able to download the assembly manual before I purchased the shed so that I could consider what I was getting into and so that I knew how to construct a suitable foundation before the shed arrived. I stained everything before assembly which took several hours. Assembly was not difficult but took me (male, age 78) about a full day to put it all together with some assistance from my son and daughter-in-law. I highly recommend this shed.”

“I LOVE this little shed. It holds my garden tools conveniently on our patio, it looks fantastic, and it is nice and solid. My husband assembled it with ease and I gave it a couple of coats of clear weather proofing. When I showed it to my neighbor she decided to order one, too! I like that it came with very clear instructions and every possible part one would need to assemble. The two large boxes arrived to Virginia in about 10 days. I highly recommend this product and the company that made it!”

“Just finished up the Garden Chalet. Ordered and delivered to Texas in one week. Arrived in 2 large boxes, no damage, well packaged, fedex wheeled right into my garage. Opened the boxes and was very happy with the quality of the materials, construction and packaging. I stained all of the assembled panels prior to assembly, took about 1 hour and less than 1/2 gallon of stain. Assemble the shed by myself in about 3 hours. Very helpful to have a few bar clamps and a battery operated nail gun. Once gully assembled, stained the trim pieces. Very happy with the product and the results. willing to provide pictures if interested.”

“I am very pleased so far. I ordered a greenhouse kit. Everyone at OLT that I have spoken with has been wonderful! The ordering process was a breeze. The communications by the delivery companies has been flawless. The kit is well packaged and receipt of delivery was really easy. I have a skid steer so was able to unload it as one package and store until I build it. I won't be building it for another couple of months, so I'll update my review on the product itself then.”

“The product arrived timely and very well-packed; and upon inspection, every piece was in excellent condition. While others have complained about pieces not being labeled, we found that the extremely detailed parts listing made sorting everything out a very straightforward process. We opted to stain our greenhouse, and as recommended we did it entirely before assembly. This was easily the most time-consuming part of the project, taking about two weeks in our garage (mostly due to dry time). And for future reference, we used nearly 4 gallons of Cabot Australian Timber Oil - Natural in our application. As an added plus, we found that touching every piece was really helpful in understanding how it all was eventually going to come together. The actual assembly process only took a long weekend to complete. We found the instructions very detailed and thorough. There were a few questions that we asked the OLT group as we went along and they answered quickly and effectively. Make no mistake, you are assembling a small house and not some particle board furniture, so there is some effort and attention to detail required here, but nothing too complicated. Also, I'd highly recommend getting several clamps (we purchased four 12-inch versions at Harbor Freight for only $5 each) to assist along the way and they were lifesavers to really help assure everything was straight and square. The entire process couldn't have gone better and we couldn't be happier. We are more than completely satisfied with the results. Plus being the envy of the neighborhood is an awesome bonus!!!”

“Some assembly was challenging, although I was mostly doing it solo with some assistance. Aesthetically I recommend staining before assembly. It is a time consuming activity but the results are worth it.”

“Good looking shed. It's actually our second cause the first worked out so well. Sturdy, strong, and keeps everything inside nice and dry. Building it is time consuming, but it's worth it.”
