A book is easier.

I know it’s cheaper than printing. But the whole scrolling up and down to check things. Having to keep opening your phone. It’s just stupid. Also shed are a bit chincy

Not easy hassle to assemble

Wouldn’t recommend Missed holes , no catalogue supplied had to get a print out. Video doesn’t reveal different angles They could have easily put arrow marks or some kinda reference so it becomes an easy DIY project

don’t buy

this shed makes me realise why people commit suicide

Terrible experience

Bunnings refused to publish my review because they clearly have a contract with Absco, so I’ll try here. None of the holes align, often not drilled, flimsy and poor quality, panels scratched and dented, nightmare to build.

App a little chuggy but helpful

As a bit of a seasoned DIY shed builder, having access to visual confirmation that I’m following the instructions correctly is a bonus. The app tended to crash and close occasionally and some of the videos had to be re-loaded as I went, nothing that a quick refresh didn’t fix. I found the videos helpful however would have appreciated a slower approach with more close ups especially for the more technical bits such as the door mullions etc. Otherwise, great to have an interactive option to help get the job done quick. Love your work 👍

Don’t waste your time

It all looks so simple - but - the snap lock process is actually difficult and a lot of the holes don’t line up requiring drilling. The drill bit provided is not worth bothering with.
The video shots of important bits are too quick to see which way parts are meant to go together
All in all a distressing and hideous experience. Would not recommend you waste your entire weekend on this project

Wheely bin shed

I purchased a Two door wheels bin shed in a sealed box from Bunnings cannon hill Brisbane and took it to install at our bush property 1/2 an hour from Stanthorpe a three hour drive. I then spent most of the day attempting to assemble it by the instructions only to find missing components, mislabeled components and extra items not listed in the items supplied on the instructions. Example … Panels should have had 4 x 44z in the pack but only had 1 the other 3 were labeled with a completely different number and had holes in the edges when they shouldn’t. Chanel components marked 61g had 4 not 2 and components 91HL & 81J missing. Components 87H missing and replaced with R14 which were too small in length.
I returned the pack to the nearest Bunnings in Warwick over an hour away from our property and the staff opened another sealed box only to find similar inconsistencies in the components.
This has been a frustrating waste of time money and fuel and I doubt I will ever purchase another ABSCO product in the future.

Junk

Not worth the expensive price tag. Incorrect instructions. Incorrectly labeled parts. Parts missing.

App not working

App won’t load. Black screen until it crashes after a few seconds.

Missing piece

I was very excited to receive my absco shed,when I started to assemble my shed it was disappointed because there was a missing piece that I couldn’t find it and I ring the service office they they will send me the piece within 5 working days and it’s wasting my time

Don’t buy this shed

The video is unable to explain the product for people simply trying to build a shed out of a pack. The product is too complex for the average person to understand

Excellent instructions!

The video instructions for my little shed were excellent, making it easy for two women to build it.

I’m going back in a

I don’t know if you need

Very useful app

We had a great time building our pump cover this weekend. The videos were quite useful and didn’t take us long to put it together. Would recommend

Amazing app.

User friendly l, easy to use app. Never had an issue.

Video was great

Bought a 3x3 recently and found the video instructions really helpful for the install. Had to rewatch some sections a few times, but the video helped me get my head around these and the shed went up great in the end.

Helpful app

Having the manual and videos in the app was helpful for building our shed. I wish I had an iPad as it would have been easier to see as the manual was hard to read at times on my phone.

Compact

Found the app helpful to have all the info in one spot. Had a small issue with the search function not locating my shed but I looked for it through the images and it was there. Video was great!

Easy assembly

Yes they maybe an easy shed to assemble if you’ve got the room and area to lay everything out perfectly like they do in their videos. They don’t tell you that you need other items e.g. going and buying Long boards and workhorses, and when working in areas that you don’t have that room it becomes an absolute nightmare.

Extremely bad video guides

Save yourself the nightmare of following video guides that constantly leave out critical information that would save you so much time & frustration. Sometimes completely incorrect information. Aside from the poor build quality of the sheds themselves.
