6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"Outstanding quality! I would use and recommend your products to anyone looking to install a shed. The smell of cedar is great!" ~ John B., Chevy Chase, Maryland
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"Just a quick note - received the bench last Monday. Assembled this past weekend. All pieces were included and it went together very well. Nice quality material…looks great…already using it. Thank you very much!!!!" ~ Jeff B., Huntington Beach, California
12x16 Breeze Pergola Kit
"The transformation of our backyard was spectacular. Family and friends were impressed by the pergola (it's structure and the quality materials), and the landscaping. We are now enjoying a beautiful backyard retreat. Thank you for a quality product." ~ Robert S., West Seneca, New York
9x9 Penthouse Garden Building
"Happy New Year!! As you can see from the two enclosed photo's we were finally able to finish our shed before the snow flew. We have also found the shed to be waterproof, especially due to Don's steps to tar and flash the roof seams. We are very pleased with the outcome and plan to landscape in the spring. Thank you for all your help and guidance during our construction. We are looking forward to many years of use in our shed." ~ Sallie R., East Norwich, New York
8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed
"Just wanted to let you know that we were very pleasantly surprised by how much fun we had building the shed. It taught us, on a small scale, a little bit about home construction. It is so very obvious that you care about your product. Well thought out, complete, and providing sound materials, your company gave us a great experience and no disappointments. The whole time we worked we were bombarded by ripe acorns falling off the overhead oak trees and we still had a good time. Thank you for surpassing our expectations. Oh, and it smells sooooo good!!" ~ Hana K., Marmora, Ontario
8x8 Gardener Storage Shed
"We purchased an Outdoor Living Today 8x8 Gardener Shed in October 2010 and were extremely happy with both your customer service and the quality of the product. We made the purchase through Home Depot and have posted a review on their website. Since Outdoor Living appears to be interested in customer feedback, I have attached the review below: "This was the best purchase ever!!!! We received a phone call from the manufacturer the day we made the purchase, providing us with a shipping and delivery schedule and a tracking number to monitor progress. They also provided a phone number and e-mail address and asked us to contact them if we had any concerns. They finished by thanking us for buying their product. An e-mail arrived shortly after which included an attachment of the build instructions. It was explained that this would help with site preparation prior to delivery. The shed arrived on the predicted date and the build was completely trouble free. All parts were included as listed and the instructions were extremely well written. The quality of the material was excellent and the finished product was above my expectations. I had been looking at sheds for a while so had a good idea of the expected price range, and for this high level of quality it was purchased at a great price. If you are looking at one of Outdoor Living Todays products, get it as you will not be disappointed." Thanks for providing a quality garden shed!" ~ Ian B., Port Hope, Ontario
8x8 Gardener Storage Shed
"We had been looking for a shed for over a year when I received an email about Outdoor Living Today and about their company. I called my husband and said "this is the one!" We ordered the 8x8 Gardener Cedar Shed on-line and within 10 days to 2 weeks received a phone call advising us that the shed was on it's way. She was so helpful, letting me know step by step what was going to be happening and when and if any problems came up to call her directly. It arrived all in one piece, no problems, all the way from BC to Ontario. To summarize, it was well worth the wait. It not only looks fantastic but was easy to put together, and we are no builders, and the people were great to deal with! I would absolutely recommend Outdoor Living Today! It was an excellent experience." ~ Bill & Teresa G., Cambridge, ON
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"When the boxes came for the garden shed I was concerned because there were so many pieces and I had never installed shingles. However, once I got started and followed the excellent instruction manual it became fun and turned out great. I had priced other sheds made out of scrap lumber and they were $500.00 assembled. This all cedar shed is sturdy and beautiful. It would have easily cost me $1000.00 or more assembled and I would have missed the fun of doing it myself. The time it took was well worth the savings." ~ Jack D., Santa Barbara, CA
6x5 Picnic Table Kit, 4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"I ordered a picnic table and garden shed to be built by the students in my life skills program. The picnic table was great. Quality wood and hardware. There was enough assembly for the lads to do to really feel proud of their work without having to cut lumber. It's a quality project that should last in our school garden for years and be a great place for outdoor learning. The shed, much more work, was also a good project. It is very sturdy. I liked that floor and shingles were included in the kit. The shed is beautiful and we loaded it with our garden supplies. Both were great projects and appropriate for assembly by 12-14 year old students." ~ Marcie H., Orwell, Vermont
10x12 Breeze Pergola Kit
"Just wanted to say thank you very much. We have recently purchased a 10x12 pergola for a hot tub we just installed. Your kit arrived on time, all pieces good and included. We took two days and stained the wood with a natural cedar stain to match our hot tub enclosure. Very good quality, and all connections fit properly. Thank you for supplying a professional kit of high quality, with no surprises. I have also sent some pics to the "sales" email address. All the best." ~ Marc & Sharon B., Enfield, Nova Scotia
9x9 Penthouse Garden Building
"From beginning to ending, OLT was excellent. Great product, great service! An all around pleasure to deal with. So much so, we bought a second shed, and can hardly wait for next summer when we will be ready for our pergola." ~ Jeff C., Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"I wanted my chalet to match my house color as closely as possible, so I took a sample of the siding to Home Depot and got a color match of the Behr Primer and Paint In One. I painted everything first because I think it's easier and neater. Plus, I could do it all in my garage and avoid some sun and rain. Probably the hardest part was getting the foundation right. Overall, the project went very well. It was fun and the instructions were pretty clear. Having them available on the internet meant that I could look over them and plan the project in advance of delivery. I liked having square drive screws and the included bit. I was also pleased that your company was generous with the amount of included screws/nails. Most kits have just enough....maybe. My wife and I are very pleased and proud of the final result and the neighbors are very admiring as well." ~ David C., Dumfries, Virginia
9x9 Penthouse Garden Building
"It's the most beautiful garden shed we've seen. The neighbours are also extremely appreciative of the esthetics (better than the standard tin shed)." ~ Carolyn G., Sudbury, Ontario
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"We ordered our Garden Chalet for looks, and were totally delighted by how easy it was to assemble. Not being the most handy of people we doubled the projected assembly time, but in the end we built it at the edge of the six hours OLT advised. Now the hardest part will be deciding on a stain colour. Thanks for building such beautiful, easy products!" ~ Owen & Paige C., Calgary, Alberta
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"If one likes working with ones hands, assembling an Outdoor Living Today shed is more exciting than a jig saw puzzle. One can look at the finished product and give God the glory." ~ David T., New York, New York
10ft Bayside Panelized Gazebo
"We have had many compliments from neighbours about our new gazebo. All have been really impressed with the detail." ~ Kevin B., St. Catharines, Ontario
6x6 Little Squirt Playhouse with Sandbox
"We bought the Little Squirt Playhouse with Sandbox for our daughters to play in at our cottage. The playhouse looks fantastic and our kids love it. Now we're jealous of our kids!" ~ Joseph B., Toronto, Ontario
8x4 SpaceSaver Double Door Storage Shed
"I needed outdoor storage and found your product. Found your company to be very professional and was impressed by service and delivery. Enjoyed putting the product together over eight hours with two friends. Very easy and fun bonding experience. Final product looks great. Stained it and now it looks even better!! We're thinking of a pergola next!!" ~ Greg D., Toronto, Ontario
6x5 Picnic Table Kit
"Very happy with finished product. The hardware was NOT included so had to make a trip to nearest town to purchase as we are at a lake cabin and wanted it completed for a family gathering. Couldn't wait for customer service to deliver more." ~ Karen C., Edmonton, Alberta
8x12 Santa Rosa Garden Shed
"Excellent product, material and design. Quality far superior to local sheds of similar style and size. My grandkids call it the "cabin." ~ Wayne W., Everett, Washington
12x8 Cabana Garden Shed
"Appreciate the straight forward assembly using quality products." ~ Trent G., Toronto, Ontario
12x12 Sunshed Garden Shed
"I had thought about this for many years before deciding. You all were great, and my whole neighbourhood has responded in a positive way! Excellent product!" ~ Philip R., Overland Park, Kansas
8x4 Space Saver Single Door Storage Shed
"The cedar wood shed SS84 we ordered was delivered promptly and was more impressive in person than the pictures we saw on-line. Outdoor Living Today is one of the best on-line organizations we have dealth with and we would recommend it to everyone." ~ Diwakar K., Mississauga, Ontario
12x12 Breeze Pergola
"We love our pergola! Customer service from your company was exceptional. Everything arrived in good condition except two skirting boards were warped and cracked upon installation and I hope to get a replacement. (Replacement sent) Our order was held up in Calgary longer than expected but overall we were very pleased with the whole experience and the product. Set up was easy and the finished pergola is a beautiful addition to our new patio area on the river. We are leaving it natural to blend in with the old stone restored mill we live in." ~ Jerry G., Marysville, Ontario
2010 Customer Testimonials
6x9 Sunflower Playhouse
"I am 100% satisfied. From the person who took my order, Ute - she is TERRIFIC, to the delivery man - who was great, to the quality of the materials, to the excellent playhouse that was built. You are an awesome company." ~ Nicholas P., Beltsville, Maryland
8x12 Space Maker Storage Shed
"Putting the shed kit together was as simple and easy as advertised. It required little additional fitting. A good product at a great price." ~ Michael M., Inverary, Ontario
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"The directions in the manual are excellent. Just follow them closely & it’s a snap. It was a fun project to assemble…and it looks great!" ~ John A., Wilmington, North Carolina
6x5 Picnic Table Kit
"I would mention that including lots of extra screws and the good quality square drive bit (even a piece of sandpaper) were nice touches and appreciated." ~ Al M., Crosby, Texas
10x16 Breeze Pergola
"Separates itself from other products. We could not be more pleased." ~ Stephen H., Steamboat Springs, Colorado
8x4 SpaceSaver Double Door Storage Shed
"I was very surprised from day one. The shed took only two weeks to arrive, coming from British Columbia. It was well packaged. We only had two pieces damaged but the manufacturer was good about replacement, no questions asked. I put the shed together by myself, in only two weekends, and that includes waterproof sealing. Only at the end did I have to make some minor adjustments, but I am more than pleased with the results. It smells good (cedar) and looks great in my backyard without really looking like a shed. Would highly recommend this shed." ~ Linda R., Santa Clara, California
8x8 Gardener Storage Shed
"Fit and finish are excellent. A very high quality package that makes it enjoyable to build - very strong when completed!" ~ Ken S., Cochrane, Alberta
12x12 Sunshed Garden Shed
"Frank Lloyd Wright extolled the virtue of form following function. My search for a storage/potting shed for our suburban yard however, was heavily influenced by attractiveness as well as its utilitarian purpose, plus cost and size. Local shed dealers hawk the mundane, as evident by the neighborhood population of basic, boring sheds. A bit of web browsing turned up the 12x12 Sunshed Garden Shed manufactured by Outdoor Living. Original in it's size, design, and features, it was also alluring in its look. The prospect of a fun but doable project, thanks to panelized construction and a very thorough assembly manual, sold me. The kit arrived in a timely fashion, and the instructions support staff were excellent when I called a couple of times with either parts or construction questions. The highlight was exchanging iPhone photos, while on the iPhone, atop the ladder leaning against the shed, talking to Greg about the appropriate gap between roof panels at the peak. Our onsite "crew" was largely me and some generous neighbors who were both curious and anxious to assist in the project, and it was almost entirely completed over a hot weekend and cooler evenings. We have been rewarded with a handsome (some would say cute), functional, high quality shed that helps complete the look and feel of our backyard, anchoring our gardening activities. We revel in its uniqueness and character!" ~ Kent S., Laurys Station, Pennsylvania
8x12 Sunshed Garden Building
"Fabulous product, asthetically pleasing, functional, easy to assemble" ~ Naiomi K., Montreal, Quebec
4x2 Garden Chalet Garden Shed
"The shipping was quicker than expected. The product assembly was easy & the finished product looks amazing. Thanks so much!" ~ Kari T., Calgary, Alberta
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"When my husband mentioned that he wanted to convert our garage to a luthier workshop it meant that my gardening paraphernalia and I had to find a new home, so I started looking for a garden shed. I was really quite disappointed with what I was finding. We had just recently had a new red cedar fence installed and added quite a few gardens and our place was looking really great - "a little piece of heaven," to quote one of our neighbours. My search was not going well. There were plenty of sheds available, but none that would enhance our backyard. Most of the sheds were metal, and despite the hefty prices were not quite sturdy looking - in fact, a lot of the display sheds already had dings in them. Then we found Outdoor Living Today's 9x6 Cabana Garden Shed....I couldn't believe how beautiful it was and how little it cost compared to those other sheds. My husband did a little digging and found the name of your company and decided to call directly. The service we received was wonderful - big thanks to Mrs. Ute Faber. We decided to go ahead with the purchase! The estimated shipping date we were given was 4-5 weeks, but it arrived in only 2.5 weeks. We hadn't even had enough time to put in the foundation! I was a bit nervous about the whole idea of building this ourselves, but the instructions were easy to follow and in no time at all, I had the most beautiful garden shed in the area. Who knew that it would enhance the look of the yard that much! We have had nothing but compliments from friends and neighbours (who were dragged in to see it - I was so proud) and the whole process was quite painless. In fact, a couple we know are going to order one for their own yard. Thanks again for making such a wonderful product." ~ Cecil C., Ottawa, Ontario
12' Bayside Gazebo Kit
"The 12' Bayside Panelized Gazebo is well engineered and manufactured, with excellent assembly instructions. Customer service has been excellent. Improvements to the quality assurance on my unit needed to be made but were addressed immediately." ~ John R., Cornwall, Ontario
12x16 Breeze Pergola Kit
"From delivery to completion, we are very satisfied with our 12x16 Breeze Pergola. We encountered no hidden surprises. Everything went as we were told and as we had hoped prior to purchase. We spoke with Ute in customer service several times and she was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and answered all our questions to our satisfaction. The pergola was delivered on time and in excellent condition. The directions were very clear and precise so installation was not at all difficult. We love the way it looks on our patio and would recommend Outdoor Living Today to anyone. Thanks to all at Outdoor Living Today, and especially Customer Service Manager Ute, for helping make this project go smoothly." ~ Joseph C., Wheatfield, New York
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"From start to finish a very good experience. Product was explained properly on the website, customer support was very knowledgeable, and product was assembled by amateurs (my wife & I) with very little difficulty!" ~ Dennis H., Pacific Palisades, California
4x3 Cedar Arbor Kit
"We are very satisfied and surprised at the number of pieces furnished to assemble our arbour made of cedar. Also, we are very glad that no principal pieces were missing considering that the manufacturing company is situated 4000 miles from Quebec province. As we are so satisfied, I would like to tell you that we ordered a few weeks ago a cedar shed 8x12 which is already under the "assembly line," and we are hoping that our second experience will be as pleasant and will be appreciated for a long time. I'm happy to answer your questionnaire because in our times, quality products are not easy to find, even in my profession (druggist). Best regards." ~ Danielle D., Laterriere, Quebec
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"We had four workers to assemble the shed- myself, my husband (each almost 80 years old), and our son and daughter in law. Threatened rain, so we worked fast. While the two men completed pad with pavers, we painted the sides which we would not be able to reach after completion. The Garden Building went together fast. Finished sealant paint on front after shed was in place. The shed is a perfect fit and beautiful, with plenty of storage space." ~ George B., San Lorenzo, California
6x9 Sunflower Playhouse
"We bought the playhouse to do a custom build. We raised it up six feet and added a slide and ramp up, and a fully enclosed sandbox underneath. Our 2 1/2 year old LOVES it, and will get many, many years use out of this beautiful, high quality playhouse. We love the look of the cedar and the non-toxic qualities. The playhouse was fairly easy to assemble, but would have been easier with more than one person doing it (as is recommended), and if it were on the ground (as was the design). In a few words: Beautiful, Simple, Quality." ~ Julie-Ann B., Edmonton, Alberta
10x16 Cedar Breeze Pergola Kit
"From the moment I spoke to Ute I became confident that I would purchase the pergola from your company. Once it was purchased, I anticipated a rocky delivery process, however it was delivered on time and the delivery driver was helpful in the off-load procedure. I immediately started the staining of all six post and girder sections. Once dried, I began staining the ladder sections. During the above staining and drying time, we decided to hire a company to rip out our old patio cement slabs and replace them with a new patio with stamped tiles onto the new cement. Once completed, we hired the same company to construct an E.P. Henry wall around the patio along with four 700 lb steps and lights (hidden in the wall) to boot! Once completed, we drilled six holes in the concrete for the post bases, constructed the pergola and resurrected it to completion. Wow, does it ever look great! Our homes' worth was just increased." ~ Jim M., Quakertown, Pennsylvania
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"Excellent product. The Grand Garden Chalet is an excellent product for it's cost, high quality, fun to assemble, and a-most-beautiful-garden-enhancer!" ~ Paul N., Anaheim, California,
6x6 Little Squirt Playhouse
"When we first saw your product on line we knew it would be perfect for our two boys, ages six and seven. I came up with the plan in my head to put the playhouse up on top of a deck and build storage underneath for all the toys, bikes and stuff, to keep them out of the weather. On the deck we made a lookout and musical area for the kids to play and have fun, and pretend that it is a pirate ship on the land looking for treasure and nature with all the telescopes, binoculars, and playing music to have fun and celebrate." ~ Mark J., Gearhart, Oregon
6x5 Cedar Picnic Table Kit
"We have a cedar log cabin and wanted a table of the same quality. When stained with a translucent product the finish exceeded our expectations. Easy assembly and a good product." ~ Don D., St. Johns, Newfoundland
6x6 Little Squirt Playhouse
"Perfect!" ~ Pascal M., Roberval, Quebec
9x9 Penthouse Garden Building
"We wanted a shed that was beautiful to look at and also well built. Our Penthouse shed went up easily in a few days. My 68 year old father built it over a weekend (after laying a concrete foundation). Our neighbors have complimented how unique and professional it looks. The details are surprising; the screen windows and flower boxes make my kids want to have it as their playhouse, but my husband insists it's for his gardening equipment." ~ Robert B., Mississauga, Ontario
10x12 Breeze Pergola Kit
"I am 76 and my wife is 64 years young. The two of us unloaded, assembled and erected the 10 x 12 Pergola. It was incredibly easy. If we can do it, anyone can. The pre-cut pieces fit together perfectly. Thank you for a fine product, we are totally happy with our pergola. Everything from delivery to finished product could not have been better." ~ Edward M., Red Lion, Pennsylvania
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed Kit
"Everything about my new garden shed from "Outdoor Living" has been excellent - from the personal one-on-one customer service, to the ease of assembly, to the beauty of the final product. We will use and enjoy our new shed for years to come!" ~ Jim Y., Gualala, California
12ft Bayside Panelized Cedar Gazebo Kit
"We purchased the kit through an on-line vendor and the screen kit direct from Outdoor Living, who very obligingly did not charge extra freight. Both kits were very well packed and protected. We previewed the instruction manuals on-line and they are excellent. The quality of the cedar is very impressive and the panelized design is very well done. We are delighted with the result." ~ Kenneth E., Chester Basin, Nova Scotia
10x12 Breeze Pergola Kit
"Our experience with Outdoor Living Today was a positive one from the very start. We were going to buy your structure from another on-line vendor, but believed we would have more personalized service from Outdoor Living Today. Your company not only provided excellent customer service, but also went above and beyond the call of duty in working with us on delivery. We must commend Customer Service Manager Ute for her friendliness and enduring patience with all of our questions. This pergola is of beautiful quality and has achieved our dream of having a grand outdoor living space. Thank you sincerely for having wonderful products and an amazing supportive staff." ~ Ann & Dan W., Happy Valley, Oregon
4x2 Cedar Potting Bench
"Pleasant buying experience, good quality, and reasonable price. It went together easily and the finished product looks great and smells even better! Would definitely buy another product from this manufacturer." ~ Susan J., Scotland, Ontario
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed Kit
"I was really impressed with the quality and workmanship. The materials were excellent and the instructions easy to follow. The finished product makes me look like a real craftsman; it's too beautiful to call it just a garden shed." ~ Ron F., Dexter, Michigan
8x12 Sunshed "Greenhouse" Garden Building
"I had been looking for a garden potting shed for our fenced-in organic garden for over two years. When I came across your 8x12 Sunshed it looked like the perfect solution for our garden. After reading the positive reviews on-line we made the decision to purchase. Your customer service is, as the other customer reviews stated, excellent! Thank you!" ~ Elizabeth & Scott, Allison, New Brunswick
4x2 Cedar Potting Bench
We are excited to show you the finished product of the 8' X 4' garden shed we purchased from you. Connie faux painted all pieces before assembly. I made a few modifications to the trim, namely single piece soffit and facia boards on the front and a slightly extended skirt to cover more of the raised foundation. I purposely hung the door upside down to give us a bigger area to decorate. The shed is sitting on concrete and surrounded by decomposed granite. We also purchased a potting bench from you to compliment the shed and add a work area. We have detailed the inside as well, and have many hours into this project. We are very happy with your product." ~ Connie D., Corona, Calfornia
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"My cedar cabana garden shed is ideal as an outdoor meditation retreat. Located in a private corner of the garden, it provides a refreshing way to start the day, sitting sheltered inside with the door open, breathing fresh air and facing the morning sun. At any time of the day it offers a comfortable, peaceful place for meditation, exercise, reading and relaxing. It is built on a solid deck, furnished with a rug, lighting and electrical outlets, and weather sealed to last a lifetime or longer. The beautiful western red cedar wood is complimented by Thuja Plicata (western red cedar) trees, which provide privacy for the garden. The cedar cabana garden shed is beautifully designed and constructed, and is a focal point in the meditation garden landscape, which everyone appreciates. Thank you for providing such a beautiful product and excellent customer service." ~ Jeanne F., Rochester, New York
9x9 Penthouse Garden Shed
"Easiest manual to follow that I've ever used. Really appreciate it. Great materials, great look as a finished product. I couldn't be happier!" ~ Rich M., Annandale, Virginia
10x12 Pergola Breeze Kit
"From the beginning of the project two things were very clear. 1 - all pre-assembly was to be done on our concrete pad where we were safe and secure, and all instructions could be easily triple checked. No errors. 2 - we would require some help with the overhead tasks as two step ladders minimum would be required. The great fit of all notched pieces made it easy for a pair of seniors to proceed with confidence. Temporary cross supports of the corner pillars freed up our hands. With the help of our youngest daughter we had it up and safe in a short time. All pieces had been pre-stained so as soon as it was up it was complete. The enjoyment of the pergola has proven to be DOUBLE what we anticipated. The first, and expected, pleasure was sitting under the beams and enjoying how the woodwork transformed our meal times...breakfast, lunch and dinner. The second, and unexpected, enjoyment comes from inside our home. Our kitchen and family room have windows overlooking our new pergola and sundeck. Even now, with fall in the air (rain), our summer project has a warmth that is most noticeable. So warm in fact, I predict SNOW will melt instantly. Enjoy the pictures and thanks again." ~ Karen & Stu R., Port Alberni, B.C.
12x12 Sunshed Garden Shed
"Just a quick note to tell you that I bought your 12x12 Sunshed. I'm using it as a nice house for my two golden retrievers, Cody and Buddy! They are special to me…and deserve special love and a special home! No typical dog house will do! Even though the sunshed/dog house is not done yet, I'm sending a photograph to enter in the best picture of the year contest! I sent in a picture showing them with me. They really like it! Thank you! If they win, they'd like the $400.00 cash so they can build a sundeck!" ~ Dianne W., Keremeos, British Columbia
8x10 Breeze Pergola
"It just started out as wanting to have a focal point in our garden. However, it finished up as a peaceful retreat overlooking the Wallkill River in the beautiful Hudson Valley in New York. The contractors who built the platform also installed the pergola. They could not get over how well finished it was and the ease of installation." ~ Frank & Ann S., Walden, New York
12x16 Breeze Pergola
"We were very pleased with the 12x16 Breeze Pergola we ordered. The kit was delivered to us on time and communication from everyone in your company was superior. Any questions we had were always answered quickly and with great detail. Assembly was so easy due to your clear & precise instructions. Thanks to the pre-drilled, pre-cut pieces in the pergola kit everything fit together like a glove. We have had many compliments on the beautiful design and look of the Western Red Cedar. Thanks for everything." ~ Roger & Chereen G., Nepean, Ontario
12x8 Cabana Garden Shed
"After having scheduled an 'army' of friends to help me assemble my shed, I experienced the 'horror' of not having been delivered the hardware components. I called Outdoor Living on a Saturday and left a message. Within a few hours I received a call back from the owner, who was very apologetic. The next day I received a call from Cliff who had reviewed the quality logsheets for my unit...everything had checked out ok. Regardless, he assured me that the hardware would be expedited to me within the week and that I would also receive an extra window unit for my troubles....something that I had asked for. Well, later that day I found the hardware tucked away in one of the roof sections. I immediately called back, embarassed of having caused such a commotion, but thoroughly impressed at how Outdoor Living responded to my 'crises.'" ~ Gail & David D., Christina Lake, British Columbia
9x9 Naramata Spa Shelter
"A custom built item would have been too expensive and taken more time. The Naramata looks custom built, but I decided to make it more custom. I added a railing system and bought my own posts for better foundation support. For a pre-made kit, it was excellent. Everything fit together well. My only issue was some of the roof assembly but I found a solution for it. The Naramata can now be seen as either an open-air gazebo or a hot tub shelter. It's all up to your imagination. The neighbors love the way it looks. One mentioned that it is nice enough for my wife and I to renew our wedding vows in. Our favourite thing is to sit under it and watch the amazing sunsets. We just love it." ~ Pat M., Woodbridge, Ontario
10ft Bayside Panelized Gazebo
"The gazebo assembled quite easily, but needed two people and lots of patience. It does look very good and we get lots of compliments. Buying one assembled would have cost at least three times as much." ~ Peter L., Oakville, Ontario
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"It was a joy to build this garden shed. I had no prior experience, but at 65 years of age (female), armed with a power drill, screw driver, and a ladder, I felt sure it was possible. No single piece was too heavy to lift. The instructions were simple to understand and every step was explained. The black hardware gives a very classy touch to a simple shed. The interior configuration is perfect for tools on one side and fertilizers on the other. I added half a dozen projecting dowels to the back (inside) so I could hang my rake, hoe, etc., so they were not in a cluttered heap!" ~ Janet C., Stanford, California
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"We couldn't be more pleased with the look of our new shed. The neighbours' kids want to use it as their playhouse." ~ Marcelle M., Hammond, Ontario
8x12 Space Maker Storage Shed
"Ordered online; everything was a well-oiled machine! You should be proud - Ute is excellent. Will order again and totally recommend you." ~ Stacey W., White Rock, British Columbia
6x9 Sunflower Playhouse
"It was a great experience for the whole family to build the playhouse. It was the first time we built a small house and we learned a lot. We learned the happiness of working together and we learned patience. Each family should have the chance to have such a wonderful experience." ~ Garderie Yolaine D., Trois-Rivieres, Quebec
6x6 Little Squirt Playhouse with Sandbox
"Our family is very happy with your Little Squirt playhouse and sand box. The assembly manual is very clear, even for people who are not that familiar with "construction," and the checklist is a good help to start the installation. We love the finish (rustic, but still classic and harmonious in a modern yard) and the security details as well. The global conception of the playhouse is great and we really appreciate that the size is perfect for an urban yard. This is a dream house for any child, but affordable and so much more interesting than a plastic toy. Congratulations for a solid, good quality and very esthetic product." ~ Luc L., Montreal, Quebec
12x16 Breeze Pergola
"Love it! We have a large yard overlooking a campground. This pergola is now the main feature for all to see. We hope to enjoy many occasions sitting under it! Completion was delayed because we ran into an irrigation problem where two posts mounts were supposed to be poured. Once that was dealt with, we had a weather problem, therefore the four decorative cross pieces will have to get put on in the spring. We are also planning to do some rock work at the base of the posts so they tie into the rockwork we have on the house. Some flagstone or more concrete will also be done along with some vegetation. A second coat of stain will also be done. Over all, we are very pleased with how it looks, and look forward to spring to start using it. Pictures will be emailed. Thank you." ~ Gail & David D., Christina Lake, British Columbia
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"We love our new 9x6 Cabana shed! It's a perfect size for the limited area that we have in the backyard. We were able to fit it into a corner of the yard in between some existing trees. We didn't want the typical vinyl-sided or metal shed. We love the cedar; it has a nice warm color and looks great. We continue to get compliments from the neighbors on how nice it looks and several have asked if they could come into our fenced backyard for a closer look. We looked at different shed products for more than a year before deciding to order from Outdoor Living Today. We liked the panelized construction of the walls and roof sections. Most shed kits don't come with shingles of any kind, but yours does and they're already on the roof! The pre-cut lumber was a plus also. We did trim a few of the pieces to get them to fit a little better, but nothing significant. It was a lot of work and we were confused a few times, but the instructions were pretty good. Two people with very little experience really can do this! We're so glad we didn't buy a shed kit from a big box home improvement store. The staff at Outdoor Living Today were helpful throughout the whole process, taking time to answer any questions we had before the sale and throughout the construction process. You guys are great and the shed is wonderful. Thanks." ~ Judy & Chris B., Ypsilanti, Michigan
10x12 Breeze Pergola
"We love our new pergola. Thank you." ~ Butch & Donna C., Brick, New Jersey
6x6 Little Squirt Playhouse
"We bought this playhouse for our granddaughter's second Christmas. She has enjoyed playing in it and likes the lights & decorations Meemaw and Pop put on it. Everyone that sees it says she's spoiled - well, isn't that what grandparents are for?" ~ Charlotte J., Clutskanie, Oregon
12ft Bayside Panelized Gazebo
"Erecting the gazebo was a real family challenge. A nice experience with a super result." ~ Louis B., Quebec, Quebec
12x16 Breeze Pergola
"We love the design and high quality of the 12x16 Breeze Pergola - blends very well in our garden - looks like it was custom made to fit." ~ Suzanne M., Nepean, Ontario
12x8 Cabana Garden Shed
"For such a complicated jig-saw puzzle, you did an excellent job identifying the pieces and explaining in words and with diagrams how to assemble the cabana. I was amazed that everything (except the rafters) was made of cedar! Since completing the cabana, I have had strangers walk by and compliment the shed!" ~ Richard W., Etobicoke, Ontario
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and ease of construction of my new garden chalet." ~ Anita K., British Columbia
6x9 Sunflower Playhouse
"I was looking for a product that would last throughout my daughter's childhood while maintaining her playtime interest. The Sunflower Playhouse fit the bill. I incorporated the structure with an existing swing set/sandbox, thus I've created a "play center" for my daughter and her friends. The entire play center includes the Sunflower Playhouse, two swings, a seesaw, and a climbing wall with a 7' high curly slide, which I custom fit to the playhouse. To accommodate this custom configuration, it was necessary to construct the playhouse atop a 7' platform. The play center is 40' x 15', filled with squeals, giggles and laughter." ~ Eric O., Thunder Bay, Ontario
8x4 Single Door Space Saver Storage Shed
"The Space Saver garden shed was the perfect solution for our small backyard. It looks so charming, but is very functional too - keeping our yard ship shape!" ~ Jennifer & David C., Glenwood Springs, Colorado
8x12 Sunshed Garden Shed
"We had so much fun the day we did the assembly of the shed with friends and family, it was like a small party. Lots of people stopped by to see the shed. I am so happy! Today I will put beautiful flowers in the flower box. I will send you photos via e-mail when all the details are finished. Thank you very much and a special thanks to Customer Service Manager Ute, whom I talked to on the phone!" ~ Margot B., Quebec, Quebec
8x4 Space Saver Single Door Storage Shed
"The shed is a beautiful addition to our yard. To have a functional building that actually adds to the apperance of the backyard instead of detracts is wonderful. It looks like a small house in the yard, not just something you can find anywhere, and the cedar will hold up to the wear over the years and just improve with age. I've already started planning the plantings to enhance it. I love it!" ~ Lynn S., Cayucos, California
8x4 Space Saver Single Door Storage Shed
"The design and size was exactly what I was looking for. It stores all of my gardening tools and supplies, fits the space perfectly and looks fantastic as well. I stained it to match several other structures in our yard and it is now a wonderful focal point, not just a storage shed! Everyone who sees it thinks it looks great!" ~ Christine H., Langley, British Columbia
8x8 Sunshed Garden Shed
"Well - Outdoor Living did it again! Our second item, the 8x8 Sunshed is just wonderful! Sure, it took a tad longer to assemble it than our previous Outdoor Living product, our breeze pergola, but it was worth every minute of time spent! From the first phone call and email to Ute, to the last second of stain touch up - we continue to be highly impressed with this company and its products. Our yard has just the warmth and now ultimate organization, that we could hope for. Hmmm....there is one more item we may still get - an arbor, and would do so with certainty from this terrific Canadian company. Thanks for everything - we'll treasure these beautiful pieces forever!" ~ Dave & Diane C., St. Albert, Alberta
8x8 Sunshed Garden Shed
"Easy to assemble, good looking when complete!" ~ Thomas M., Flamborough, Ontario
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"We were looking for a cabana changing room to fit into a confined space and Outdoor Living had the perfect product for our needs. The price was very reasonable for the excellent quality of the cabana shed and the assembly instructions made the job easy and successful. The 9x6 Cabana adds a very homey look to our sideyard and is a great add on to our new backyard pool and spa area. We have added unstained red cedar furniture (bench, shelves, etc..) to match the theme decor. We have also applied an all weather tile carpet to the floor to facilitate damp bathers and the changing room funtion. If you have a pool and you want a reasonably priced changing room solution, this is the right product." ~ Ronald C., Vacaville, California
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"Excellent installation instructions. Quality cabana - cedar is definitely the wood to use. Overall design is great - easy to add interior shelving and hooks as needed. Our cabana makes all the sheds in the neighbourhood look inferior! The only help I required was to put up the roof rafters and panels, plus making sure the roof panels sat correctly and tight to the rafters." ~ John C., St. Catharines, Ontario
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"We are very happy with this beautiful shed. It was very easy to assemble. We would recommend it to everyone. We receive many compliments about this little house. It adds beauty and value to our property. It looks more like a "little house on the prairie" than a shed. It is a beautiful structure. Thank you very much...." ~ Grazyna D., St. Catharines, Ontario
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"The hardest part was to level the ground. We removed three tiers where the unit is placed. Great project to work on as a team on a nice sunny day. It gives you time to stop for refreshments and have some fun setting it up. Was not difficult as instructions were clear and in order." ~ Christine N., Edmonton, Alberta
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"I really enjoyed spending some time with friends building the cabana shed. When I had originally ordered the shed I was in good health and relatively physically able to take on such a project with little difficulty. Prior to it being delivered I received an injury at work which, unfortunately, removed four fingers and knuckles from my left hand. I have to admit that this project definately proposed some challenges to say the least. Usually only two of us had to work at a time. I've had several people lend a hand (so to speak) in the assembly. Now that it's done, with the addition of insulation and power, I have, I think, one of the finest sheds I have ever seen. Thank you so much. PS: not to mention some of the finest friends to lend that hand." ~ Thomas P., Edmonton, Alberta
9x9 Penthouse Garden Shed
"An amazing product wrapped in exemplary service!" ~ Chad S., Calgary, Alberta
9x9 Penthouse Garden Shed
"From date of purchase we found the customer service excellent, keeping us updated on the expected delivery date and informing us when shipment was leaving. We did have some problems with assembly but customer service and production shop manager were very helpful, working with us to correct the problems. Very pleased with the finished product. We have converted your shed into our tea house, where we sit and enjoy the views of our garden." ~ Elizabeth H., St. Albert, Alberta
9x9 Penthouse Garden Shed
"I truly enjoy looking out the window and seeing this beautiful shed. It holds our snowblower, lawn mower etc., and I am proud that it was made in Canada, and it looks gorgeous." ~ Mary F., Uxbridge, Ontario
6x5 Cedar Picnic Table Kit
"Excellent, beautiful product, for the price you can't go wrong. Will try to purchase more to be placed on our playground area. After visiting many showrooms and websites this is the obvious choice in price, ease of assembly and looks!" ~ Dagmara R., Miami, Florida
8x8 Gardener Storage Shed
"This was the best purchase ever!!!! We received a phone call from the manufacturer the day we made the purchase providing us with a shipping and delivery schedule, and a tracking number to monitor progress. They also provided a phone number and e-mail address and asked us to contact them if we had any concerns. They finished by thanking us for buying their product. An email arrived shortly after, which included an attachment of the building instructions. It was explained that this would help with site preparation prior to delivery. The shed arrived on the predicted date and the build was completely trouble free. All parts were included as listed and the instructions were extremely well written. The quality of the material was excellent and the finished product was above my expectations. I had been looking at sheds for a while, so had a good idea of the expected price range, and for this high level of quality it was purchased at a great price. If you are looking at one of Outdoor Livings products, get it, as you will not be disappointed." ~ Ian B., Port Hope, Ontario
8x4 Space Saver Single Door Garden Shed
FedEx just delivered the shed, on time and in great shape. The driver was terrific. He took the package off the truck, rolled it into my garage and placed it exactly where I wanted it. I had visions of a much more complicated process involving a lot of work. This was the best." ~ Leslie D., Menlo Park, California
2009 Customer Testimonials
9x9 Penthouse Garden Shed
"What a great looking shed. We get lots of compliments from neighbours and visitors. Given that the shed was going to be a focal point in our backyard, we spent a long time looking at options. We found the perfect shed with OLT. Excellent quality and the instructions are easy to follow. Yes, it takes time to put it together, but everything is well marked and it is well worth the effort. In fact, we found it an enjoyable project to work on together. The customer service from Ute is simply outstanding. We certainly highly recommend the product and dealing with the company." ~ Richard M., Waterloo, Ontario
8x10 Breeze Pergola
"We were already excited about the fact that we found what we were looking for, but when Ute called to follow up after the order to prepare us for what to expect during the shipment, it left no room for surprises, right down to the assembly instructions. The shipment arrived as expected, the care and packaging impeccable to ensure it got to us in good order. The entire transaction was more than just a sale, and the service pre/post would certainly make us contact Outdoor Living again for any similar projects. We now proudly display the pergola in the front of our house and could happily refer you to any admiring passerby or neighbours. Thank you." ~ Shirley L., Pickering, Ontario
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"We purchased the 9x6 Cabana and have been thrilled with the outcome. The quality of the red cedar is excellent and the assembly went smoothly. The shed is now an accent point in our backyard and we have received many positive comments about the shed. I would recommend Outdoor Living Today products to others." ~ Jack M., Toronto, Ontario
8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed
"We love our new 8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed. The instructions were very easy to follow and we achieved spectacular results in our finished shed. The shed is already the envy of everyone in our neighbourhood. The shed tucks up against the side of our house perfectly and gives us the storage space we need for our yard tools and wheelbarrow. We stained the shed with the same cedar tone color that we used on our cedar gazebo and deck, so the shed compliments and adds to the beauty of our home and yard exactly as we wanted. Thanks for making this outstanding shed. We have emailed our finished product photos. Please enter them in the best picture competition. In deepest appreciation." ~ Roger & Janice R., Vienna, Virginia
8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed
"We bought this to hide our garbage cans and some yard supplies. It looks charming! It was fairly easy to build and your service and delivery were fantastic. Thanks!" ~ Linda G., Toledo, Ohio
12x16 Breeze Pergola
"We are very happy with our purchase of the 12x16 Breeze Pergola. It was purchased to improve a garden area formerly occupied by a 12x20 cover-it portable garage. It may occasionally be used as a carport for guests, but will also function as a garden structure for entertaining and relaxation. The WRC structure is beautifully crafted and prepared for easy installation. Proper concrete footings were prepared before installation and the hardware and instructions provided by OLT were top quality. Two men completely assembled the pergola in less than 8 hours. The result was immediate and spectacular. To personalize it's usage, lattice panels were added as well as some shade cloth on the overhead. Thanks OLT, for a very high quality and consumer friendly product." ~ William H., Los Osos, California
9x9 Penthouse Garden Shed
"We are indeed delighted with our 9x9 Penthouse Garden Shed. The ordering was smooth and simple, and the delivery as well. We thank Ute Faber with Outdoor Living Today for all her assistance in answering our questions before and after ordering the product. The information she provided to us was extremely correct and helpful in making our decision to purchase the product. Can't say enough good things about Ute. We hired an individual who is handy in the construction of homes. He couldn't believe how easy the set up was, how the pieces were exact and precise (not having to cut to fit, etc) and the quality of the product was outstanding. FYI: two people are needed to place the roof. Otherwise, one person can assemble the rest. That's the word from our handyman. We have included photos of our shed. We recommend that the shed be placed on a flat base. We built an extension and it is ideal for a little guest house or pool shed." ~ Margaret O., Embrun, Ontario
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"This shed was an anniversary present for my wife. She had recently battled breast cancer and I wanted to get her something very special. This did the trick. She is so happy with it! Thank you!!" ~ David N., Sante Fe, New Mexico
12x16 Breeze Pergola
"This is a great product. The design is classic. The assembly instructions were clear and made for easy assembly. My neighbours have complimented us on how great it looks. My wife & I are very pleased with how it has greatly enhanced the looks of our patio area and are looking forward to enjoying it next summer." ~ Edward B., Arvada, Colorado
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"The shed was easy to assemble - my husband, my dog and I finished it in under five hours. The wood was beautiful and smelled fabulous. The directions were easy to follow and clear. The hardware was top notch and very strong. We look forward to using the shed for many years to come, and have no worries about it standing up to the California weather." ~ Brianne C., Bishop, California
8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed
"The perfect garden shed. Looks great, stores an enormous amount, and was easy to build. Secure and water tight." ~ John P., Blacksburg, Virginia
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"The Organic Garden Student Program purchased the shed for the Ricker Organic Garden. The shed is truly beautiful and looks spectacular in the garden. The wood is smooth and smells wonderful, and the over-all quality of the product is excellent. The shelves inside help with organization. The Stanford Student Organic Gardens love our new shed!" ~ Lauren N., Fresno, California
8x12 Santa Rosa Garden Shed
"The finished product is very attractive and is exactly as pictured on the internet. Skilled carpenters look at it and say it is an attractive design and well built. They are shocked when I tell them it comes as a kit. It was more economical to use this product than to start from scratch. It fits the yard perfectly." ~ Marilyn M., Santa Rosa, California
6x6 Little Squirt Playhouse
"The finished product is outstanding! We are very pleased how it all moved along so smoothly - from all our contact with the folks at OLT to the FedEx people we spoke with. We couldn’t be happier with the Little Squirt playhouse. The only glitch in the whole project came when our contractor announced he didn't read English and I became the designated foreman that day! We completed the house itself in about six hours with two men doing the assembling based on my directions. (Some how it all came together :)" ~ Elaine W., Atascadero, California
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"Ordering and delivery went without a hitch. I hired someone to assemble the shed. Although it took him and a couple of friends longer than they expected to assemble the shed, it really went up quickly - over a long weekend. They hadn't done this before so it probably took longer for that reason. The result is.....adorable! The cabana is a good size for our smallish backyard, but it is large enough to fit everything we hoped to put in - lawn mower, tools, hedge clipper, garden tools and paraphernalia - there should even be room for a bike and lawnchairs in the winter. With a bit of landscaping around it, it will be a great addition to the property." ~ Patti S., Madison, Wisconsin
10ft Bayside Panelized Gazebo
"Of all the pre-fab modular or kit gazebos on the market today, this package has the most attractive design and finishing details. The components were all first grade cedar and the post/truss system by far the most sturdy of any I have seen. Ease of assembly and instruction manual made it a fun project, and one we will enjoy for many years. Thank you!" ~ Gary M., Calgary, Alberta
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"My shed is so beautiful and it smells wonderful. A friend suggested I store winter clothes in it. I will use it to store garden tools and furniture." ~ Sarah M., West Columbia, South Carolina
8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed
"My experience with constructing our OLT shed has been fantastic. I was amazed at the quality of the product and the ease of the construction. About two hours into the project my neighbour dropped by and summed it all up saying, "Now that's the way to build a shed!" ~ Leonard F., Oakville, Ontario
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"Love the shed. Looks great in my yard." ~ Joseph Z., Little Ferry, New Jersey

6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"I was pleasantly surprised to get a phone call from your company after I ordered the shed to let me know details about delivery and assembly. The shed looks great, but I'm glad I had someone with carpentry experience assemble it! It required more than IKEA level skill." ~ Colleen H., Palo Alto, California
9x9 Naramata Spa Shelter
"I was amazed watching my dear husband assemble this beautiful cedar covering for our hot tub. He started this project in January in Ontario! He assembled it in the garage and put the whole thing together himself when it advises "3 men." He used clamps to hold it together while he perfected every step. He finished it off with curtain rods he designed. The extra wood braces he made all of cedar, and also the steps. He also installed a "garage gorilla" used for lifting bicycles off the floor (motorized hoist). He used it as a lift to lift the hot tub cover - amazing. If only you could see the finished product up close. I will send you pictures of him on your email - please look for them. I nominate my man for perfecting and beautifying our home. Your product is great and I love BC. My sister lived in Maple Ridge in the 70's and I have been out there seven times. My brother is in Coquitlam and my niece is in North Van. Sincerely, Irene W. PS: The hot tub is amazing as we both have sore backs from working hard." ~ Irene W., Belle River, Ontario
8x12 Sunshed Garden Shed
"I think this product is attractive yet functional. The quality of the cedar is excellent." ~ Renee B., Olympia, Washington
10ft Bayside Panelized Gazebo
"I ordered my 10 foot Outdoor Living gazebo through the website. As soon as the order was ready to be shipped I received a phone call from the Outdoor Living office thanking me for the order and telling me when the order would be shipped and the approximate date of delivery. On more than one occasion I spoke directly with people regarding several aspects of the order and never had difficulty getting a live person to speak to. Via the internet, the company sent me many fact sheets and also the instruction manual for assembly, so I was well prepared to receive the gazebo. Everything arrived as stated and in fine shape. I chose to hire two local young men to put the large gazebo together and they accomplished the task in 7 hours each for a total of 14 man hours. This was their first assembly of a gazebo, although they had other assembly experience. We are very happy with our purchase and I highly recommend this company. They are a first class operation." ~ Bessie M., Madera , California
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"I needed somewhere to store my exterior tools - shovels, rakes, etc., and I had limited space to do so. We live in the city center and our property is quite conservative. The 4x2 Garden Chalet was a perfect fit in style and size, and relatively easy to assemble - a great project for a father and son/daughter. My 6 year old daughter helped with the assembly, and although limited, we still had a great time together. The fact that the chalet was of red cedar construction was alluring as we are now able to have a beautiful looking structure in our backyard. Thank you!" ~ Eames G., Montreal, Quebec
8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed
"I have put together several pre-fab sheds and storage units for my customers. By far your product has been the easiest to do. Your instructions are easy to follow. I would suggest that the facia and trim pieces be labelled. Beginners or non-professionals may have difficulty in determining what goes where." ~ Ed H., Bainbridge Island, Washington
4x2 Garden Chalet Shed
"I had been searching for an outdoor TV cabinet that looked good, yet was reasonably priced. I purchased the 4x2 Garden Chalet, made a few minor interior shelving adjustments, and it works perfectly. Now I can enjoy the TV out on my patio without having to carry it in and out every time." ~ Crystal L., Jenks, Oklahoma
12x16 Breeze Pergola
"I found this pergola to be the best value and made of the best material. The kit was very easy to set up, one of the most straight forward I have ever built!" ~ Matt F., Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"I found the entire process very enjoyable. I was somewhat apprehensive when the pallet of material arrived due to its size, but within four hours I had the subfloor and four walls up. It was actually quite a bit of fun. I would have no problem recommending your products to anyone." ~ Karl H., St. Albert, Alberta
12x8 Cabana Garden Shed

"Buying and assembling the BREEZE pergola was a very nice and quick experience. One of the main posts was damaged, probably during transportation, but it was replaced very quickly. Customer service was another enjoyable experience. Excellent seller, quick transportation, good communication, great product - thanks." ~ Ewa M., Mississauga, Ontario
9x7 Cozy Cabin Playhouse
"Building the Cozy Cabin was a nice event to bond with my 7 and 4 year olds. Both felt a sense of pride that they helped & accomplished a large project that they now can enjoy." ~ Chris M., Moraga, California
12x16 Breeze Pergola
"Besides a great pergola, Ute Faber is your strongest asset. Her customer service was above and beyond expectations. She answered all my questions about staining the cedar. She gave excellent instructions about shipping, storage, building and preparing for the pergola via phone and email. Many thanks." ~ Andrew M., Sandy, Utah
6x6 Maximizer Storage Shed
"Assembly of anything is not easy for a person with ten thumbs who does not know which end of the hammer to use. The assembly manual was excellent, easy to follow, clear, and well illustrated. Ute Faber is a perfect customer service rep - helpful, intelligent and pleasant to deal with." ~ William G., Cataumet, Massachusetts
6x6 Little Squirt Playhouse
"Absolutely beautiful! I am pleasantly surprised at the quality of this playhouse. The instructions were superb! It took two guys only a few hours to assemble thanks to the step by step instructions - and all the little pieces (screws, bolts, etc.) were labelled. I have already referred this company to several of my friends." ~ Tressa S., Toms River, New Jersey
2008 Customer Testimonials
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"I am very happy with the shed. It took my husband and son longer than expected but the finished product was worth the labour.

I would recommend you to friends and neighbors. Thanks." ~ Pranee P., Edina, Minnesota
8x4 Space Saver Single Door Storage Shed

8x10 Breeze Pergola
"We are very impressed with the design, architectural elements, quality of the wood and workmanship. Outside of a couple of small problems previously mentioned, the overall experience was wonderful. This structure draws ooohs & ahhhs from all of our neighbors and friends. Thanks for a great job." ~ Del & Elgie., Murfreesboro, Tennessee
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"Our shed is beautiful and well laid out. With some care in assembly, the OLT shed will become a well built, durable addition to our yard. The only problem is that the finished product is so nice that we are having a difficult time using it as a shed. (i.e. what we intended, and what we are considering is making it into an artist’s studio.") ~ Mark S., Pleasant Hill, California
6x3 Grand Garden Chalet Shed
"We bought this to hide our garbage cans and some yard supplies. It looks charming! It was fairly easy to build and your service and delivery was fantastic. Thanks!" ~ Linda G., Toledo, Ohio
12x12 Breeze Pergola
"My builder and I built the 12x12 Breeze on a large deck in our backyard in eight hours, and we even took a lunch break. It went together like Tinker Toys, if you are old enough to remember those. What fun to see it develop before my eyes. Instructions were easy to follow, all the parts were there, and there were even extra screws which is unheard of. Thank you for your great customer service and the follow up call from Ute. Good product, good service – what’s not to love!" ~ Mary Ann A., Hastings, Michigan
8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed
"We love the quality & the cedar smell. Our lot is a small beachside lot and the shed fits perfectly - so glad that we waited 10 years to finally find a shed which is exactly what we needed." ~ Rebecca F., Ormond Beach, Florida
8x4 Space Saver Single Door Storage Shed
"The product assembled with relative ease. It does not require any specific carpentry skills or construction experience. The pieces are relatively easy to handle for a man and a woman. I would recommend a 14v drill and two batteries. Outcome was better than expected." ~ Brian B., New Orleans, Louisiana
8x4 Space Saver Double Door Storage Shed
"The perfect garden shed. Looks great, stores an enormous amount and was easy to build. Secure and water tight." ~ John P., Blackburg, Virginia

I emailed pictures and they promptly offered to send replacement doors. This company exemplifies taking care of the customer. Do business with this company with total confidence." ~ Tom & Sandy K., Parker, Colorado
8x10 Breeze Pergola
"Erecting our OLT Pergola was a "Breeze!" By the end of our second leisurely day we had our dream space. We had to make some minor adjustments to our Breeze due to limited space available and an odd slope in our concrete pad, but even with the extra time needed to do so we completed our pergola in a weekend and have enjoyed it every day since. Thank you OLT, for a fabulous product and for making it so easy to complete." ~ Donelle P., Metairie, Louisiana
9x6 Cabana Garden Shed
"We were very impressed with the prompt delivery, ease of assembly, and excellent quality of our shed. We are thrilled with the end result, and I shall consider moving into it if my husband continues to snore!! P.S. Thank you for the cheery follow up call. (I shall email a photo when I have fixed the surrounding garden!)" ~ Jill P., Calgary, Alberta
8x12 Spacemaker Storage Shed
"The delivered package looked intimidating at first with all the various pieces. Not to worry! Instructions were clear and easy to follow and assembly is laid out in a clear and easy to understand format. To be honest I am not the handiest man around but still managed to get thru it okay!" ~ Gordo P., Calgary, Alberta
12ft Creekside Gazebo, 8x8 Sunshed Garden Shed & Breeze Pergolas
"I bought a gazebo, a sunshed, and two pergolas. I'm really happy with all the products - when assembled they look really neat and nice. Assembly is quite simple if you have some handyman skills, it is an excellent home project. The instructions were missing for the gazebo, but when I emailed the company I received them the next day." ~ Micheal H., Kitchener, Ontario
10x12 Breeze Pergola
"We are satisfied and proud to have purchased a Canadian made and designed, high quality product made exclusively of Canadian red cedar, probably from BC, rarely available in Quebec." ~ Johanne P., Ste-Petronille, Quebec
8x4 Space Saver Single Door Storage Shed
"The product is ideal for our small space. It is very attractive and was fairly easy for amateurs to assemble. We had intended for someone to do it, but when we had difficulty finding someone, we, a couple in our sixties, tackled it with the wonderful help and expertise of our son. His time is limited so we were very happy that things went smoothly. He too was impressed with the product and the detailed instructions and would consider buying a bigger version of your product for his growing family. I will not send a picture now as we worked in a cold rain and the site turned to mud. In the spring, when our grass in back is green and the flowers are planted, ask me again." ~ Marina V., Mount Royal, Quebec
10x12 Breeze Pergola
"This product was not available in Alberta and was located using the internet. OLT had the ideal product we were looking for! Their website provided great photos and information, making our search very easy. Upon contacting their firm, staff were very accommodating and ready to work with us. In our particular case, we requested specific changes to the plan on the website, which the company agreed to, providing the product we required. The whole experience was pleasant and we are very happy with the end result." ~ Dwaine S., Medicine Hat, Alberta
10x12 Breeze Pergola
"We ordered this BEAUTIFUL pergola (10x12) months before we were ready to assemble and use it. We saw it on the website and had to have it at the time. We still needed to complete our patio (paving stones - by the way, we did all the landscaping ourselves - except for bobcatting). From delivery to assembly - it was smooth sailing. Just the two of us (my husband Dave and I) stained and then assembled it - in one weekend. The pieces were all well cut and fit together beautifully. We were thrilled that we didn't need to call a friend or neighbor over to help (even though there were a few short moments of wobbling that a third person may have been helpful), but all in all it was a "Breeze" and is the talk of the neighborhood! Thanks! We'll love it for years and years." ~ Diane & Dave C., St. Albert, Alberta
