The shed is fabulous and looks great, not quite finished yet as building it on my own in the evenings but just got the roof tiles to put on now, hopefully there will be enough as it looks a little tight with no room for error. Delivery was superb and on time with lots of contact from driver regarding eta. Excellent job Tuin, absolute bargain of a price for a summer house that looks 4 times as expensive.

Very impressed by our recently purchased shed. Was delivered in extremely good time & delighted with the condition of the delivery. We did feel the instructions could of been more in depth as they weren’t the easiest to understand/follow. It may be more beneficial if they were more adapted to each individual shed rather than a generic.

Great throughout. Skylar cabin is so good and is everything I needed space wise. Easy fitting throughout despite limited instructions, especially for the windows but we worked it out!

Amazing & fast service during difficult times (covid). Well impressed with our cabin ected by ourselves we feel very proud. So simple although we did struggle with the doors aittle and had a carpenter in to help us with it. Hours of enjoyment as we have turned it into a bar. Have given out so many recommendations and is a great talking point. Everyone who has seen it is impressed. I live on the side if the mountain and its bearing well in the winds and rain, its bone dry. Would definately recommend to others and would definately purchase again.

We purchased the Skyler 5m x 3.2m cabin…
We purchased the Skyler 5m x 3.2m cabin and found it to be good value. Someone with decent DIY skills can erect this themselves but you do need an extra pair of hands. The advice about the base being level is vital because we were slightly out and needed to use some packing to level the cabin because the double doors wouldn't line up, (that's where the decent DIY skills come in to play) knowing how to get out of trouble and put this right. The only criticism I have is the plan provided is for any cabin and not specific but having erected a similar cabin before it was not too much of a challenge but probably would be for a first timer or someone with limited skills. Overall we are very happy with the cabin.

Ordered the skyler cabin, delivery was good the pallet was positioned exactly where I required it on my drive.
Found the building of the cabin very straight forward, my only advice would be make sure the base is level and make sure that the building is square, then it goes together like Lego, the shingles are a little time consuming but look great once done.
Over all I'm very pleased with the cabin and would recommend tuin .

Pros:
1. delivery driver was great
2. I have literally zero DIY skills and I built mine with my 2 sons (15 & 13) helping out occasionally and built it in around 20 hours (so far)
3. solidly built, looks amazing

Cons:
1. Instructions are poor
2. some of the beams are warped and mean there are gaps dotted around the frame
3. The shingles are a pain to fit (and precarious) but look great. The roof does take your weight (I'm 85kg).

The door hanging is still to be done.
The floor option I took aren't cut to size - you have to cut half of them, don't know why when the interior dimensions are known.
The door swung open yesterday and smashed my window.

Excellent customer service and the staff are very helpful, as well as all the knowledge there is to learn about on the Tuin Website. Payment was an easy transaction and the delivery was on time with Tuin keeping me informed every step of the way. I would definitely purchase from Tuin in the future and thoroughly recommend them to anyone who is looking to make a purchase. Thank you Tuin for a smooth purchase transaction.

Congratulations on your product and delivery service, everything was brilliant. The delivery process was excellent the driver very polite and professional .The erection of the log cabin was easy to follow from the instruction manual , and all went to plan.
Thank you for your very professional and exceptional service and product.

My wife and I took a long time to find just the right cabin (Skyler) from your enormous catalogue and it was time well spent. Now that it is up and ready at the bottom of our garden, it makes a beautiful addition. We are really pleased with the way it went together and it looks fantastic! I should also like to add that it represents very good value for money.

Delivery was prompt and the driver was very pleasant. The cabin was delivered in a double sealed black heavy duty plastic cover, we thought at first that we hand not received all the parts as it was only a small package, but they pack it in the most practical way. All the parts were as per the itemised delivery note including the black shingles. I have never built anything in my life and thought it would be very hard to erect, but myself and two cousins (girls) built it in two days. We had a level cement base made two weeks prior to erecting the Skyler. The instructions that came with the cabin were a bit hard to follow, so we kept referring back to the advice on the Tuin website. The shingles were easy to lay, I would suggest using a good bonding glue to stick them down if you live in exposed areas. We are very pleased with our cabin and are looking forward to using it in the summer and winter. I would recommend using Tuin and I will certainly use them again in the future.

Once we had got our base level, which basically took nearly a whole day(!) the whole thing went together really easily! Only one length of wood was out of shape but we got around it by screwing 2 pieces of wood to the one below it to strap it together! Looks briliant - although we haven't got the roof on yet!

Overall I was very pleased with this product. I am currently using it as a living space on the back of the house, like a conservatory. Pieces went together well, enough of everything was supplied and my dad and his friend had erected it within a couple of days without any problems. Only downside were the shingles provided as the adhesive was, it seems of poor quality. Following the recent winds most of the shingles ended up scattered throughout my garden, so my poor father the following day had to get up on the roof and secure them all again using nails in everyone! The previous cabin we had brought, the Heino I think it was called, was amazing and we had no problems at all with the roof shingles. Another problem was the glass in the door on the Skyler, it leaked when we had some bad rain and again my father came to the rescue and sealed both sides of the glass with a sealant. Wouldn't hesitate to buy this product again however as was and still am very pleased...it looks fab!

Construction quite straight forward a couple of days to complete, dislike was the roofing felt, wish I had the shingles, two coats of preservative inside and out job finished.
