"I don't know how it was typed in multiple places incorrectly, but my guess is the measurements, and description are probably for an older model Rubbermaid sold."
"The shed is fine and generally easy to assemble but be advised that it is NOT 2x2x72 -- the Amazon title is misleading though the correct dimensions are given lower in the description."
"I needed a storage unit to put some of my yard sullied in. It was pretty easy to assemble, it took me no more than 15 minutes if not 10 to put everything together(I'm very hands on and pretty quick at putting things together)."
"Very solid - won't blow over like the one I replaced."
"Easy to assemble and is like an extra pantry for my patio deck."
"This is a great shed for my small patio."
"Now I find out not only does it not come with shelves but Rubbermaid doesn't even sell shelves for it."

After storing both of them, I still had enough space for another adult size bike, and whatever accessories I needed; such as pumps, maintenance tools, replacement parts, helmets, etc."
"I also don't know how it is possible to put this shed together by yourself."
"As luck would have it, a week after I put it together, it rained non stop for a few days where I live, the inside was dry, with no indication of water seeping in."
"Easy to put together, and although other reviewers complained about the metal braces not fitting perfectly, I was able to get it to work with a bit of planning."
"Well finally got all the parts so I can put it together after I got two right doors two right back panels had to call main company twice to get them so 2 weeks for the main box another week for the door and another week for back panel so a month all together for all the parts."
"Excellent storage unit!"
"Great shed overall, but some of the screw holes weren't drilled and aligned properly so we couldn't get the screws threaded through some holes and decided to do without them and it still holds together."
"At first I loved this shed, I use it in my yard to store my kids bikes and scooters, but the one door will not stay on!"

The shelter is in a shaded patio which is not exposed to direct sunlight for more than maybe 2 hours a day. I did it by myself in under an hour; and that includes the time it took to anchor it all in securely to the wall and floor. We've had bad down pours and heavy winds here in Miami and it's held up without budging. The second thing I would change is the hole in the back for securing the shed's contents to an external fixture. This could easily be remedied by making some sort of sock-like portal with elastic at the end so you can feed a chain through and still have a seal. Time will tell how well it will hold up, but I feel confident I'll at least get a couple good years out of it."
"I have had all 3 versions of the YardStash."
"Kinda afraid that the top center fiberglass spreader will not hold up if we get a heavy snow storm,if I don't clean off the snow.Other. than that the fabric quality seems amazing ,thick , strong I hope.Update 1-27-15 held up to blizzard JUNO.Update no issues with the 2015 winter season snowiest on record."
"It was great until this... Perhaps better for states south of Virginia."
"At first I thought it was me having shoved a sharp edge or something into it but upon closer inspection, I noticed the fabric was rotted out. One piece of advice: if you live in a high UV bombardment area like South Florida, Arizona or Texas go for the Yardstash IV which is way more resistant to sun damage."

"It's unbelievable the storage space it has but I wouldn't put too much weight in it simply because the storage base liner for the storage part doesn't seem super sturdy. Although, I put basketball, football, volleyball, Frisbee, extra plant pots, watering can, broom, smaller bag of soil, and gardening tools in there which has held up well."
"and I am very happy about that as I put the cushions in there when it rains and they remain dry."
"I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to assemble this."
"This fit the bill and looks like an expensive wood bench from a bit of a distance away."
"I needed my husband to click some of the pieces because I don't have the strength anymore."
"Update: Sadly since we purchased the bench and actually put it to real use the lid has broken, the sides have separated, it became discolored,and is is hardly useable at all. In fact it caused a terrible accident when my average sized 14 year old, fell right through it and hit her head againt the Stucco wall behind the bench. Orriginal review: The bench arrived and we excitedly opened the box to begin the assembly process. The instructions that accompanied the pieces were not for this particular bench, and even though they were for a storage box, none of the part labels matched and so on. Luckily we found someone who had taken the time out of their day to actually Youtube the assembly of the Keter Eden New All Weather Outdoor Patio Bench. The other review mentioned having purchased theirs at a hardware store chain that we don't have here in Las Vegas, but maybe I will check out the ones we do have to see if I am able to find a better fit."
"Once assembled, the bench was not level."

So the plastic isnt going to warp out causing large gaps on base. 2) If your area has flooding, even if half a inch, and there is a gap you are going to get water in the box. This box is not to just drop on the grass somewhere behind your yard. What I did was purchase a bottle of UV protection spray here on amazon and put it on the areas that gets sun. Just make sure the box is on an even surface. I believed my lid was on an even surface but when noticing the lid not closing perfectly (slightly to the left) I placed it on what I knew to be for sure an even surface it the lid closed perfectly. - A socket attachment for assembly. *Important note: It is more difficult to assemble than something like an Ikea furniture set."
"I also bedded each screw and the 4 corner brackets with silicone which took extra time but IMO is necessary when using metal fasteners into plastic because you can not tighten anything up, you just have to "snug" it up. I also took high quality silicone grease made for bicycle chains and smeared it on all the metal this will stop any rust and keep the fasteners in good shape. I also added a bead of silicone to all interior joints which adds extra water proofing and gets rid of any entry points for bugs also. Last night it rained harder than it has in at least 8+ months, I mean it absolutely dumped and the box remained 100% dry as a bone, so it passed that test no problem."
""This warranty does not cover damage caused by vandalism, rusting, "acts of nature" or any other event beyond the control of the manufacturer.""

Find Best Price at Amazon"I have read all 400+ reviews, especially the 1,2 star reviews in which the canopy collapsed, usually in light wind. Drilled and sheet metal screwed (#8x3/8") the top of the legs to the canopy top frame (very puzzling why these don't have clips like other connections do). Securely attached bottom of poles to ground (I didn't use the plastic pieces that came with the set, I used 4' light metal fence posts like Origin Point 090044 Light Duty Fence Post, 4-Feet, pounded into the ground, cut off tops, then drilled hole through top of the cut-off fence post and attached with bolt that came with the set). Securely braced the top of the corner posts by screwing pieces of 2x2" wood from the top corners to a nearby fence, so that pushing on the top frame corners results in very little movement. Enhancements, several hours of thinking, 2 hours work for first canopy."
"But it's like the saying goes, you get what you pay for. So, I went to Home Depot, got 6 buckets, and 6 bags of concrete and put the legs in the buckets, leveled them out, and poured concrete in it. The wind was so strong that it blew down the porch of my neighbors house, and in another area of town, blew over an rv trailer."
"Assembly was easy and only took 45 minutes, I took the opportunity to add some additional hardware while the canopy was still on the ground. The end result (with $10 of additional hardware) is a very sturdy canopy that I am sure will stand up to 20-30mph winds without problem."
