    I love how detailed your articles are. Thank you for all your hard work. I genuinely want one of these for my backyard. One day when my hubby and I can afford a house with our own private yard and garden- I want to see at least one of these sheds in our yard! Maybe even more than one depending on the space we have. It is a gorgeous design and pretty spacious.

    Dreamy!

    • Hey Darcy, Thanks for exploring Rockwood’s version of an extra large plastic garden storage box.

      I hope you achieve your dreams with regards to owning your own house with private yard & garden Darcy. Took us years too however we were more fortunate when I compare to today’s market due to home-ownership having a more realistic mortgage system back then. How newbies get on the housing ladder in certain parts of the UK, simply baffles me. The system isn’t fair anymore.

      Resin sheds are becoming ever more popular due to their decay-resistance when stood outdoors surviving changeable weather meanwhile deck boxes manufactured from polypropylene like this Rockwood or Lifetime’s polyethylene which manufactures a competing deck box seem to have taken over wooden structures operating a deck box style. A flat lidded wooden structure soon starts to decompose once rainwater puddles the top whereas covering with roofing felt looks unattractive and soon disintegrates, hence the reason they’re seldom seen today.

      There’s no doubt resin manufactures are producing ever more realistic wooden looking fascia panels year on year as new additions constantly enter the market. Up close the Rockwood does look plastic meanwhile from a distance looks aesthetically wooden & stylish however when you compare against similar competition, the combination of the extra large 150 gallon storage capacity, triple services and 2 years warranty all wrapped up with a reasonable price, you can appreciate why this has acclaimed global sales.

      Dreamy maybe however there’s nothing wrong with that. Thanks again for commenting Darcy,
      Simon.
