7' x 5' (2.12x1.52m) Walton Brighton Summerhouse Reviews
 | This was a fantastic buy for the reduced sale price, not sure it would be perfect enough quality for the full price. It was delivered on time as promised, and makes a perfect playhouse. The instructions were very clear, and all parts fitted together perfectly. We painted and built it all in half a day (and we are useless at DIY). We are really pleased with it. The only equipment needed: paint, paintbrushes, electric screwdriver and hammer. No extra cutting or sanding needed. We are very pleased with it! a Shedstore customer, Sunday 04th of July 2010 |
| The shed was precisely what they promised and we are very happy with it. It was great right down to the delivery man who carried it through ready for erection. a Shedstore customer, Tuesday 11th of May 2010 |
 | Delivery was quick but don't expect some that is precise and easily slots together. The instructions suggests using nails but I used screws throuout for a better and stronger fit. I also fitted a more substantial flooring. I recommend others do the same but that's down to personal choice. Windows provided disappointing as they are plastic; not glass and badly fitted. Also don't clean very well which detracts from appearance. That said, reflects reasonable VFM if you don't mind additional work to enhance. a Shedstore customer, Monday 29th of March 2010 |
| Really happy with this excellent product - all came as advised. Only difficultly was really in fitting the windows with not all of the rebates the correct size - easily remedied with a little trimming. Should be stated that it takes way longer than the 2 hours suggested to erect though!! Suggest at least half a day for 2 persons competent at DIY a Shedstore customer, Wednesday 24th of March 2010 |
| very pleased indeed and very quick delivery a Shedstore customer, Monday 15th of March 2010 |
| Although it was a great deal of work, I managed to put up this shed in a single day, thanks mainly to the very clear, excellent instructions. The pack corresponded very clearly with the instructions and everything came together with few hitches, however upon constructing the summerhouse, I discovered - to my horror - that there were still batons nailed to the base of each panel. There had been instruction to remove these at the start. I therefore had to lift each corner of the shed (extremely heavy by this stage!) to remove the panels, by knocking them out with a hammer. It was dangerous and very difficult. I scoured the instructions afterwards, but sure enough, there had been no advice about removing any batons from the panels. Why on earth hadn't there been? One major glitch in otherwise excellent instructions. a Shedstore customer, Wednesday 13th of January 2010 |
| Considering the low price of this summerhouse it is extremely good value. It was very easy to erect and is a lovely addition to our garden. a Shedstore customer, Saturday 26th of September 2009 |
| Bought to use as a 5yr childs playhouse. Very suitable and good price. As some other reviewers, found the floor panel to be borderline too thin so used boards on top. Overall very pleased with purchase. a Shedstore customer, Saturday 04th of July 2009 |
| Really pleased with product, was installed very quickly, and looks great, a very small detail was supplied with silver not black hinges. a Shedstore customer, Friday 03rd of July 2009 |
| I am very happy with my shed. It went together easily, everything fitted, and the end results are excellent for the money. I've seen many more expensive sheds that don't seem any better. My only gripe is that the roofing nails could have been a little longer. I replaced them, but, as they say, no biggie. a Shedstore customer, Monday 29th of June 2009 |
| I thought this was a great idea however the hinges fitting on the outside of the summerhouse means that it is not as secure as i would expect it to be seems pointless to put a lock on the outside as if someone wants to break in they just have to undo the hinges simple. However saying that i think it is lovely as a summerhouse. thanks a Shedstore customer, Monday 29th of June 2009 |
| Summer house is well made, easy to assemble with basic tools and looks great in my garden. Some small bit were not delivered but one call and they arrived next day. All in all very happy with it. a Shedstore customer, Monday 29th of June 2009 |
| THE PRODUCT WAS DELIVERED PROMPTLY IN GOOD CONDITION BY A COURTEOUS VERY HELPFUL DRIVER. THE PRODUCT WAS EASILY ERECTED BY OURSELVES AND HAS NOW BEEN IN OPERATION SEVERAL WEEKS a Shedstore customer, Thursday 25th of June 2009 |
| We're delighted with our Summerhouse. It was delivered on time and all pieces were present and sound. The quality of the building materials is better than we expected and we were able to erect it in an afternoon (does need two people to do it). We did take the precaution of using a better grade roofing felt although that supplied would have done the job. Our Summerhouse is currently being used as a temporary puppy kennel - for which it is perfect. Excellent value for money, Many Thanks. a Shedstore customer, Tuesday 16th of June 2009 |
| For the price it is good value for money, but the window fitting is a little odd. a Shedstore customer, Sunday 14th of June 2009 |
| Good shed, value for money, only one problem, roof felt not very good and now very patchy as the sand has fallen off. a Shedstore customer, Saturday 13th of June 2009 |
| Good value for money. Lay the doors flat before erecting the summerhouse otherwise they warp. a Shedstore customer, Sunday 31st of May 2009 |
| Lovely little summerhouse we are the talk of the allotments. a Shedstore customer, Monday 16th of March 2009 |
| At 300 quid, a great play house for the kids. Add extra battons under floor, get some better felt. a Shedstore customer, Monday 23rd of February 2009 |
| well worth the money. very quick delivery. would recommend to anybody a Shedstore customer, Thursday 01st of January 2009 |
| Great summerhouse - looks wonderful when erected. Reasonably easy to assemble too - one person can do most of the work, but on occasion a second person will be required. We've put ours on a paving slab base (as we had some lying around) but also used some pre-treated timbers to strengthen the base and extend the life. Generally the buid quality is what you might expect for such a building - a bit rough, but it does fit together in the end. As others have mentioned, the roof is the biggest letdown. The felt ripped very easily when being put up, despite being very careful. Also, the tacks provided are woefully inadequate, and we had to purchase longer ones to hold the felt on. I suspect that the roofing felt will need to be replaced within a year or two. a Shedstore customer, Sunday 28th of December 2008 |
| I thought that the shed was good value for money, but not in the prepared condition that I expected from a Summerhouse "boasting," about its quality and "recommended," normal selling price. Delivery was staggeringly efficient with next week delivery from order.The end result is actually excellent, but only because I chose to take time in coating the parts with wood treatment before assembly, and substituted your nails for decent screws. I would however give full marks for the way the pieces fitted together without need for any, "adjustments." a Shedstore customer, Tuesday 23rd of December 2008 |
| The summerhouse is great and thank you for your help a Shedstore customer, Monday 03rd of November 2008 |
| Very good product, value for money. a Shedstore customer, Saturday 01st of November 2008 |
| brill, looks lovely and great service from the shedstore a Shedstore customer, Saturday 01st of November 2008 |
| Shed was as expected just a shame it was not delivered when originally specified a Shedstore customer, Friday 31st of October 2008 |
| Very pleased indeed. We love our garden house. All went according to plan. Unlike most self assembly, everything arrived! Great sevice, ***** a Shedstore customer, Thursday 30th of October 2008 |
| I bought this item as a rustic shed rather than an elegant summerhouse building. it is a great little building easy to put up but we modified it as the plans were not brilliant and we felt we could do a better job with the roof. We painted it before erection with cuprinol garden shades. very summery, seaside type of hut. Timber a bit rough and it could have been manufactured with more care. a Shedstore customer, Wednesday 29th of October 2008 |
| pleased with price, prompt delivery and ease of assembly, build quality is good (though a few nails were short of the mark) T & G far better than lapped, not keen on the sandy roof felt so have used green felt. We are enjoying our summer house! Recommended! a Shedstore customer, Wednesday 29th of October 2008 |
| good quality easy to read instructions if lacking in some details a Shedstore customer, Tuesday 28th of October 2008 |
| Impressively quick and efficient delivery and customer service. But shed doors don't really fit very well. a Shedstore customer, Friday 24th of October 2008 |
| I was very happy with my summerhouse, there were a couple of things missing but nothing too drastic. Over all i am very pleased. a Shedstore customer, Thursday 23rd of October 2008 |
| EXCELLENT VALUE>>SUMMERHOUSE EASY TO INSTALL & NOW IN USE a Shedstore customer, Monday 20th of October 2008 |
| Im delighted with my Summerhouse. It was fairly easy to install and now that it is painted and fitted out I use it as my craft workshop. a Shedstore customer, Monday 20th of October 2008 |
| Great summer house. Bought this house for my daughter to use as a playhouse. Plenty of room for her toys and table and chairs and when she has grown out of it I am hoping I can use it as a Summer House. a Shedstore customer, Thursday 16th of October 2008 |
| very good a Shedstore customer, Monday 13th of October 2008 |
| Just as described, excellent value for money, my kids love it & it looks good too. a Shedstore customer, Sunday 12th of October 2008 |
| generally good value for money, but roof covering poor quality and the floor needed extra noggins to make it reasonably rigid. a Shedstore customer, Friday 10th of October 2008 |
| Looks great, easy build. Used longer nails to secure roofing felt. a Shedstore customer, Friday 10th of October 2008 |
| Very happy with delivery, item and price. Will call again when I need a shed. Thank you. a Shedstore customer, Tuesday 07th of October 2008 |
| Some felt on roof missing but otherwise excellent a Shedstore customer, Monday 06th of October 2008 |
| excellent a Shedstore customer, Monday 29th of September 2008 |
| GREAT GREAT GREAT SUMMERHOUSE VERY EASY TO PUT TOGETHER WILL BUY FROM AGAIN DELIVERY WAS FAST TOO! a Shedstore customer, Tuesday 16th of September 2008 |
| Great Summerhouse. Delivery was fast and efficient. It didn't take long to put up once we got our heads around the instructions, and the customer services were very helpful. We've painted it the colour of Brighton Beach Huts and it looks lovely. a Shedstore customer, Monday 15th of September 2008 |
| Great. Easy to put up and looks great. a Shedstore customer, Friday 12th of September 2008 |
| Great product and excellent value for money. Customer services were excellent for my one small query, would definately recommend. a Shedstore customer, Thursday 11th of September 2008 |
| Very pleased indeed. Quick delivery & a very good price. Excellent value. a Shedstore customer, Wednesday 03rd of September 2008 |
| Excellent service, well constructed shed, and just what I wanted! Do you make any shelving for this item? (Shedstore comment: Sadly not). a Shedstore customer, Monday 01st of September 2008 |
| Now that the summerhouse is up it is great - exactly what I wanted - with just enough room for two seats and a small table. Delivery was prompt but I think it is a bit ambitious to say that it needs only 2 people to erect it - it took 4 of us! Also, the initial glazing pack contained neither the correct number and size of window panes nor beading strips and we got 2 more packs delivered before we had the correct amount and size. a Shedstore customer, Monday 01st of September 2008 |
| The summer house was good value for money. Fitting the windows was a fiddle but not big deal. Supported the floor plinth with a few extra cross pieces to give more rigidity, so spend about £10 on extra materials would be my advice. Had one door that warped badly, but quickly replaced without any fuss so no complaints here. a Shedstore customer, Friday 29th of August 2008 |
