Made the mistake of spending £1,750 on a corner summer house. I've erected many sheds and Sumner houses over the years and this was by far the most poorly made one I've ever experienced. From the start it was clear that the workmanship was poor, (and that's putting it mildly). ALL the panels were misshapen and NOTHING fitted together due to the terrible quality of the materials making the straight lines into banana shapes. The pathetically thin doors wouldn't shut properly due to being warped. I had to buy bolts for the top and bottom of both the double doors to stop them gaping open. But even this didn't prevent the rain coming in as, due to the lack of a decent door frame, there were gaps all around the doors. I had to make and fit an internal frame for the doors to close onto. The doors aren't even made square so don't meet in the middle properly. The so-called windows, (thin perspex sheets that get scratched if you so much as look at them), also had gaps around them which needed sealing with silicone to stop the rain coming in. The parts of the roof and the floor panels didn't fit together due to being warped so I had to clamp the various pieces together to bend them back into shape before they would fit. Absolutely NONE of the fascia board trims or the vertical cover strips were long enough or wide enough to do the job so I had to but more timber to do the job. The hinges that were sent with the kit were the wrong ones so I got them to send me new ones, (I should have actually asked for a whole new summerhouse but by now I was too far into the process of trying to assemble it). Also, many nails were sticking out of the various panels where the nail gun had missed it's target. Loads of pieces of the strengthening timbers were split and/or warped. The quality of the felt was absolutely appalling. It's now leaking due to it splitting where it's turned over at the edges of the roof to go under the fascia. I've had to strengthen the floor with a 25mm thick plywood base to stop the whole structure from wobbling when you walk around. And now I'm going to have to refelt the roof because everything inside is soaking wet and going mouldy. So..... DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY. YOU WILL BE WASTING YOUR MONEY.
