"Well worth the money and would recommend buying the floor section. When delivery man rang to arrange delivery he offered to build it for a small fee (well worth the money) he and another lad were here for less than 3 hours. Great product and would recommend this cabin to anyone."

"This cabin is well worth the money. When contacted by the delivery person- ask if he has time to give you a few tips. He was brilliant with us and saved us a days work by laying the building out in order. If you don't do this you will spend ages sorting the pieces out. Take time with the roof shingles. "

"Well,Ordered on Sunday 18th Feb arrived to my surprize on Sunday 4th March in the pouring rain to boot and got drenched unloading it.
So,sorted all the bits on monday morning-took about an hour and wer'e ready to rock 'n' roll.
The base was a peice of cake,very simple framework to errect the cabin on to keep the foundation boards of the ground.
The overal build was childs play but the instructions were a bit ambiguous to say the least my advise to would be DIY phobics is take your time and to read the compleat instruction manual at least three times before you start and familiarise yourself with them or at least read the one section ahead at each stage of the build.
Compleated the errection incl roof boards by 5.00 monday evening with no help all on my own.
Tues, Hung the doors & windows,took my time to adjust the simple hinge system to align the doors to a near perfect fit and fitted the floor boards onto the bearers,no cutting required.
Wed's, started to lay the roof shingles this was a tiresome task on your own having to go up down the ladder what seemed to be a million times.
Thur,finished the second half of the shingles in half the time(got the hang of it now). and weather pending treat the cabin on friday.
Summary.
Easy to errect by yourself.
All interlocking boards fitted near perfect.
Some rough boards with broken toungs.
Roof shingles look fantastic.
The overall asthetics is very smart and eye catching(the wife is very pleased with it)
Lots of positive comments from neighbours and passers by.This is errected on my driveway as a garage would be facing the road.
Advice.
You MUST have a good flat & level base to ensure no twist is built in therfore making the interlocks slide together with ease and the doors and windows fit to near perfection.
Do NOT fix or secure the the door frame with screws untill you hang the doors this way you can adjust the pillars and frame to suit before you make any minor adjustments and secure them with screws.
Fit some weather beading around the outside of the windows to hide the window catch and weather proof them.
Lay the roof shingles when the sun is shining this way the sun warms them up and makes them nice and supple and easy to bed down.
All in all i'm delighted with the cabin it's not perfect but i made a good choice at a good price after months of searching.

"Very nice 'flat pack' cabin. Took 2 days to erect but could have done it in less if weather was dry.
Only hassle was wood being totally untreated so needed to be kept dry, both unassembled bits and erected section. Large tarpulins needed and lots of rope!!
Instructions not great, especially for the base, which gives you vertually no instruction of how to fix the treated section together. Thankfully we're DIY orientated so managed.
No idea why window open inwards either - hope this isn't going to give hassle in wet weather with waster seeping in between the frame and window??
Otherwise nice product."
