“Excellent product, excellent company, excellent customer service. Fastest company I have ever used for responding to emails. I will send some images when it's built but this is going to make a little girl very happy.”
“I am delighted with this out building which I am using as a small office. My builders erected it and commented on the quality and easy or erection. The wood is excellent quality and the building sturdy. The delivery was exceptionally efficient and I was fully informed. Really pleased I chose Tuin. Thank you Tuin!”
“Excellent product and great service! The instructions that came with it were somewhat limited and not that easy to follow, however, the plentiful on-line instructions and videos more than made up for it. I more or less built it on my own with only a couple of parts needed an extra pair of hands. Plenty of spare wood too, so much so I built a bar with the leftovers! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a cabin like this!!”
“A lovely cabin at an excellent price. The information and service from Tuin were fantastic. It has taken me some time to put up the cabin but that was due to me wanting to add an extra window (made a frame myself to match the one supplied) and cutting the logs prior to assembly (easier on the mitre saw than a plunge cut with a circular saw or messing about with a jigsaw). I then insulated the roof which necessitated making new fascias, etc. Anyway, that is all done and I am pleased with the result. Will submit photos when I have finished painting, etc. I have a few minor gripes which I will list although they are not major issues and would certainly not deter me from buying another Tuin log cabin. 1. One of the logs would not bed down at one end and closer investigation revealed the joint had not been cut to quite the required depth. A couple of saw cuts and a bit of chiselling sorted that out. 2. None of the door and window furniture matches. Not a serious thing and does not matter from a practical point of view but for aesthetics it would be better if they matched. 3. It would be better if the roof edge reinforcement batten was larger and also angled on one side to match the pitch of the roof. There would then be a vertical face suitable for fixing a gutter to. Again this was not a problem for me as I insulated the roof and built it up higher. 4. The timber part in the bottom of the doors is only thin tongue and groove boards fixed on the outside with an L shaped profile covering the top. I filled the panel with insulation and fitted t&g boards inside to cover this. I made a profile to natch the outside and the inside of the door looks better for it in my opinion. 5. The notches for the purlins to fit into could perhaps have been cut a bit more precisely. I found that in some cases the purlin sank lower than the top of the log wall and elsewhere the purlin was slightly proud of the top. Again, notching slightly deeper or using small packing pieces remedied this and ensured no gaps around the roof edge. I do not doubt that minor issues like these would occur with even the most expensive cabins and anyone with basic woodworking skills and a bit of common sense could deal with them. As a bonus, the extra timber provided, the pieces I did not use due to modification, and what I cut out for a window has left me with enough to build a mini log cabin for my cat! At the moment I have only got notes and sketches on paper but in due course there will be more on this.”
“I purchased this log cabin to replace my daughters childhood playhouse and to be mainly used as a man cave. This purchase from start to finish has been superb! No other word for it. From delivery to the build everything went as expected and I contacted the help email to ask about a question on insulation and received and answer almost imedediatly, brilliant service. Being in Scotland Ive insulated the roof and floor with 50mm celotex and used OSB board on the roof before fitting the shingles to make sure it lasts the Scottish weather. I choose to use my own flooring ( 18mm exterior ply) as Im fitting a carpet to make it as warm as possible. Although cost wise the Floor supplied by Tuin is great value if you decide to use this as an extra option and really not the more expensive. Overall Im super happy with this purchase it went together easy and the extra bits I decided to do with insulation and electrical consumer unit fitted, make It a man cave to be proud of that fits in with the look of my house and garden. Im concidering buying the added storage unit tuin sell as an extra for our cats to build build them there very own cat cave! Awesome Tuin cant be happier.”
“I cant fault anything with this product and all the information on the website. Having done my homework and read all the reviews and tips it was a piece of cake. Based on the insulation information I went ahead and insulated my cabin with 50mm celotex roof and floor. What a wise move with the summer we are having. I built my cabin on an existing patio area which took some time to ensure the foundation beams were 100% level. Once the build proper started I reached roof level in a couple of hours. Half a day to do the roof ( including insulation) and half a day for the floor. 90% of this was single handed just needed a second pair of hands for the roof trusses. Finally sealed exterior with 2 cats, interior 1 coat as recommended with clear coat. All in all an enjoyable project. I would recommend to anyone and in fact based on my experience a friend has purchased a larger tuin log cabin.”
“fantastic, fantastic,fantastic. From the moment i ordered the Daisy log cabin the whole process was excellent. My delivery was made by Mark who rang me to say he was 30 minutes away. Mark was very helpful and placed the quite large package exactly where i wanted it. Shingles were packed on top which i removed to place out of the sun as the build wasn't to take place for a few days. On opening the main package it was quite eye opening to be faced with a small forest of wood.Reading the instructions and watching loads of videos we set to work sorting the pieces. I must admit that was one of the hardest parts. Now come to the build, Wow, so straightforward, everything slots together with minimum persuasion from a rubber mallet, within a couple of hours the cabin was up to roof level, windows and doors slotted in ready to start the roof,time taken here is well spent as at first did not realise the roof boards were different widths. roof completed , on to the shingles, must have picked the hottest day of the year, but after watching more videos everything came together, what a good look, makes the cabin look a quality product, which it most certainly is.Apart from a few trims to put the cabin was built over the weekend with just two people. Well what can i say, the cabin was a pleasure to build and what a fantastic piece of engineering. I now have an extra room in my garden which i can use all year round , all thanks to the people at tuin. This company has got it right. From the simple ordering process, delivery of a quality product, loads of online information, cannot find a fault. Every time i look at the cabin it makes me smile. Tuin what a company, what a product. To sum up my review in three words. Fantastic, Fantastic, Fantastic.”
“This is our second cabin from Tuin. We were so impressed with the quality and value of our first purchase we added this one as a changing room beside a hot tub and it's perfect.”
