This was an emergency purchase because we are trying to build a shed in our back yard and have not yet been able to get permission from the Homeowners Association yet.  We needed somewhere to put things off the ground and store gardening equipment/tools before the rainy season starts. That being said, It was easy (with 2 people) to put it together and it holds a fairly decent amount of items. So far with a light rain there have been no issues and it is working perfectly.
