Exactly what we needed. The shed looks really good and is not an eyesore. We where able to get our garbage cans out of the garage and feel like we got so much more space back and eliminated the odor. We love that it has a floor and sound doors so that animals can not get to it. As people mentioned before the doors open only after you open the lid but this does not bother us. We left the trash can lids open inside the shed and that way we can just open the top shed lid and through trash in. Hope it helps.
