This is a great looking building that we really like. It is spacious and having insulated under the floor is also warm and dry. It is going to make a great workshop and store. The build itself is daunting when you first look at it but after sorting out all the parts and making sure you have the slightly different ones separated it goes ahead quickly. It took 8 of us a day to assemble (a Scottish winter day so short on daylight) and a day to lay a floor and fix the shingles. The hardest part was lifting up and fitting the gables and getting the purlins in place. Check that the building is square at the top before you do this as it might need a nudge. We found the purlins to be too tight and after a coupe of breaks I eased them with a chisel. Only a smidgen but it saved the rest from problems. The broken parts glued back on ok using polyurethane glue. The shingles took longer to fix than expected and as it was cold the shingle glue didn't go as far as we had hoped. I'll have to go back later and add a bit where needed. But again not a disaster. Lucky we did get the roof completed though as two days later we had over a foot of snow. The Moa is dry inside and warm compared to outside. We think it looks great and should give many years of good service. Many years ago I worked as a joiner so I recognise quality in wooden buildings. I put enough together then. The quality is good, the size is good, the appearance is good, the service is good. And your driver is a real star. Thank you.

Bought the Moa for storing my classic car and also for the wife's gardening equipment and can honestly say from start to finish Tuin have been a pleasure to deal with from the start where I asked for delivery to be brought forward 3 weeks which was not a problem for them . The building itself is a very straight forward afair to assemble, the most difficult was the roof only because I suffer with a bad back . Overall I would highly recommend Tuin as a company and their product is really well made . Thank you Tuin it's been a pleasure

Although overall happy with the cabin there were a few issues. While fitting the roof purlins two of these split which will require repair. The single door facing was fitted to the frame at an angle which resulted in being unable to fit the door hardware until this was refitted correctly. Although having purchased guttering along with the cabin the appropriate thickness of barge board was not supplied to accommodate the guttering brackets resulting in purchasing additional wood locally. Not enough nails were provided to fit the roof boards. The customer service was excellent with good communication and the delivery driver was friendly and pleasant. I would happily buy another product from Tuin.

I bought the Moa Garage (after much research) and was not disappointed. Ordering and delivery was stress free, on time (in the middle of the two hour slot) and delivered exactly where I asked. Assembly was easy once you have read the instructions, and with surprisingly few tools required. I had to contact Tuin by email once or twice just for advice, who always responded quickly and were very helpful. The website is also a great source for help and advice. Everything in my delivery was as it should be, all parts went together well with not one bit missing, or extra! Now it is built, I am so happy with the result, people comment on how good it looks all the time. As projects go, I have really enjoyed building this. I cannot say anymore really, apart from how easy to deal with Tuin were throughout. One very happy customer!

Went together really well. Watching the installation videos on the Tuin site was very helpful. It really looks the part now it is up.

I am delighted with my Moa garage/workshop. The quality of materials is excellent and went together in just over a day with my wife helping out for some of the higher logs and room beams. All joints fitted perfectly. The service I received was excellent - including the delivery . I will be buying another Thin log cabin for my back garden in the summer!
