We have an existing pad 114" x 131" but when it rains it can hold water. Is it very important to keep the shed out of water?

Shed is all durable plastic, but floor is not water tight so water may seep up through floor if your pad doesn't drain well.

if water can not stand over one inch it is ok. the floor and all wall parts are plastic. water will not hurt the shed base. the floor is about 3/4" thick and the walls are fasten to the floor like leggos. the shed is over one year old with high winds and a record snow fall this last winter. it looks like new! it is well build!

The shed itself can tolerate water as in rain or snow but the base has to be on solid ground and devoid of pool of water for stability.

The unit floor is made of plastic, so it won't rot. Depending on how much water pools on the pad, the only concern would be water seeping up through the joints in the floor.

Not complelty. For the most part water will run off in a light-medium rain but like a tent saturated enough and it leaks.

Only used mine for a couple of weeks as it was replaced by a shed. It did rain during that time and my belief is that is water resistant but not entirely waterproof.

We built a pad with pavers; then on top of that, we built a pad made of treated 2x4s and plywood. That way we were able to screw the shed to the plywood for stability. We also painted the 2x4s and plywood with deck paint, which will hopefully help it last.

No it will not collect any water and keep it. It is important to follow the installation instructions and tilt it the right way and water will never be a problem. For me it was easy to install, and it has perforations and holes in the right places so it will never retain any water. All water, whether it is rainwater or condensation, will drain away from the house.

We have gotten a lot of rain and it has not leaked. Sorry, but that is the best answer I can give, but it is a very cute and well built house.

I have my unit under an overhang roof, so I have not had to deal with the prep station getting wet. I will say that if water is hitting the unit straight from on top it will not leak but if the rain is running down the front of the unit, the doors are not a sealed fit. Things might get wet or damp inside.

I'm pretty sure there'd still be plenty of room. My husband and I with our two dogs just stayed in the main area and there was still A TON of space around us. Since it was raining we had just about everything inside the tent with us and there was still enough space to stand and move around.

Probably. If you didn't have anything else in there on the ground. It's a great shed. I have a pressure washer, a lawn mower, a mosquito killing machine, four 3-4 gallon kerosine tanks, and a small portable work bench in it laying on the floor. I haven't put anything on the walls, or tried to install overhead storage. No leaks so far.

My shed resides NM so it likely sees less rain then imaginable. However after the 2-3 rain events we've had since I put it up about 1.5 years ago not a drop made it inside. That being said, it has a 2 piece roof (the front half slides over the back half) which would be the only possible leaking point and I think that would only become an issue if it was installed on an uneven surface. Mines water tight!

Nice floored area but not a tall space. If it rains, that area will be completely wet. We decided it would be better to have a separate tall screen room.

Ours held some water, but we easily adjusted it to fix that issue. It did a pretty good job at keeping the sun and rain out of our son's big sandbox.

Mine stays 'completely' dry.... I like my shed very much. I was able to install some "S" hooks to hang a few tools and it turned out great. I would recommend this shed to anyone.... Good luck Tom

Paula, yes it does the job. I have not had any problems with it getting wet when it rains. However, it does not cover the entire unit down to ground. The cover stops just above the legs. I hope that helps you.

Not Really. It will keep the rain off for a while but then it eventually leaks.

Mine has not but it is used in an enclosed porch and has not gotten wet at all. However, I do find it disappointedly uncomfortable. It needs a much thicker pad.

I don't think so. If I leave it out and it rains, it doesn't stay filled with rainwater. It's great for garden cleanup and very light with a big wide opening.
