Keter Darwin 6x4 Garden Shed after more than a year of use in the UK I thought it was a good time to make an honest review about this Shed.

Bought this exact shed a few months ago and watched your assembly video before building it. Got to say Keters instructions were spot on and very clear/easy to follow. Very happy so far

Hi Phil! What is the height in the corners as opposed the the dead center? Would be super helpful to figure out shelving. Thanks mate!

Stumbled on this video just in time. I plan to put this shed up for a small pigeon loft to raise a small flock of pigeons. I was going to use one of the window opening to install a wire bob type door so they can enter back in after a flight but can't come back out. This looks like it would work just fine.

@PhillWyattProjects Ай бұрын

No problem 👍🏻 yea and you can put the window In the door too if you want. Mine is still good no leaks etc.

Curious what size the door opening is? Thinking of purchasing one of these sheds to store a snow blower, but the door size of course determines the size of snowblower we can purchase.

I own the 6x8 model with the skylight, it's holding up very well so far. Took about half a day to assemble on my own and was super simple if you just follow the instructions. My only complaint is that the floor is quite brittle plastic and even with a vinyl overlay I managed to put a hole through, simple enough to repair though.

@PhillWyattProjects Жыл бұрын

Cheers David 👍🏻 yea I really like the look of the 6x8 with the skylight I would get one if I had a bigger garden.

Great vid😊 Just ordered this Darwin model as its down to 250quid via Argos...won't be delivered til the 3rd of Jan but I'm in no hurry 👍 Already have a smaller keter shed and it's great! Just needed something a little larger. Looking forward to a new place to hide my chocolate! 🤪😉

Do you happen to know the exact internal height measurement....from ground to top of wall panel before roof/apex?

@Maverickjs74 19 күн бұрын

Thanks for the vid. Can anyone confirm if the width of 125.8 is at the base, actual panels or roof width.

@evelynnotman5070 Жыл бұрын

Thanks Phil for your videos. We gave just bought the grey one and we are having problems fitting it at the roof corners where the apex ends meet the side rails or dont in this case. I have been in touch with Keter as not pleased with the fitting of the roof doubt if they will take it back but will see.

@PhillWyattProjects Жыл бұрын

Hi Evelyn, yea the roof can be tricky to fit. Is your base perfectly level? That always makes it easier. As it's been a while since I put mine up I can't really remember doing the roof. Sorry I can't be of more help.

@evelynnotman5070 Жыл бұрын

@@PhillWyattProjects That's alright Phil just felt like airing my frustration at paying for something and then having to fight with it. My husband has decided if we have to keep it he will make new apex edges with plastic angle trim to cover badly fitting roof etc where rain would get in. Thanks

@PhillWyattProjects Жыл бұрын

@@evelynnotman5070 Sorry to hear your having trouble with it I do think it's a good shed if you can persevere with it and sort out the roof. I do understand your frustration I have bought so many things that have come up short in the past.

Thanks your video, I think this model is suitable for me. But I'm facing my garden is a slope, so i'm finding solution to fix it.

Thanks for reviewing. Are the panels strong and rigid I want this for storing bikes? My old shed has vines from the neighbors garden poking through do you think this shed being plastic will resist that? I've seen it has good reviews on Argos but not so good on B&Q, but then for some reason everything seems rated lower on the b&q website than elsewhere...

@PhillWyattProjects Жыл бұрын

The panels are strong enough for what I use the shed for although I would not recommend leaning heavy items against them. This type of shed is probably better at keeping vines out as the panels are in one piece not like wooden cladding which has lots of gaps. I personally like this shed.

@MrDuncl Жыл бұрын

Having just completed my base need to have another look at these. Today I looked at a nicely made Tongue and Groove wooden shed for about £100 more than these. Like other people have commented the reviews on these are a bit all over the place

@PhillWyattProjects Жыл бұрын

Yes some people prefer wood. I like this shed although when I bought it I think it was about £100 cheaper than it is now so if felt like a great deal. It's still fine with no problems.

Would a small space heater be. Okay In here or would it damage the resin? A very small heater. I just ordered the grey version and am turning it into a vocal booth but it’s getting very cold out!

I don't know to be honest I think you would be better off contacting the manufacturer about that for health and safety reasons. 👍🏻

Do you ever have any issues with damp or sweating inside? Feel comfortable leaving electrical items inside? Would you feel comfortable installing a light/plug in terms or dampness etc? Thanks!

Hi, I don't want to give electrical advice although I can say that mine is bone dry inside. I haven't had any damp issues.

@columbo9336 4 ай бұрын

I have the 6x8 Darwin, and I have had serious damp issues. I am not sure if ifs condensation, or if its leaking through the skylight. I had to bring all my tools into the house as they were rusting even in their cases. And anything in cardboard boxes are falling apart.

I feel like a Stanley knife would open this shed I just got mine and let’s be honest it’s not exactly sturdy like a wooden shed however for storing what I’m storing it’s perfect

@PhillWyattProjects Жыл бұрын

I have seen similar comments about this shed although I disagree. This shed when compared to a wooden shed of a similar price is no less sturdy in my opinion. Also, this one doesn't rot or warp like wood does.

I personally think it would as long as it's anchored to its base and the base is level.
