More of a failed amazing project
A few years ago I bought a double-door wooden storage shed from B&Q for about £300. After a weekend of trying to erect the thing, I gave up in the end as there was not one right-angle in any component. I thought I was putting it up askew, but after several attempts, I got out a set-square, some string and a tape measure and after some measurement, it turned out that some corners were out by up to 10 degrees.
So, we started once more, thinking we could just force it - get the sides up and once the roof went on, it might pull it sort of square.

We lined the roof panels up at one end, yet at the other end they overlapped by three inches. I thought, if I get the doors on and then plane a bit (a lot) off the roof it should be workable, but the doors wouldn't go on. I was beginning to think that they'd actually sent me the room out of a fun house by accident, the sort where you look bigger if you stand at the far end.

In the end, I phoned B&Q and said I want my money back and they could come collect it. The bloke that collected it told me to never get a shed from B&Q again, and said I ought to get one of the metal ones from Argos. So I did, it was better built, went up quicker and was about £70 cheaper at the time.

Rhombus-sheds - More trouble than they're worth.

Nice.
I've always suspected they're bastards to put up.

Yup
and I would've thought that the metal ones would be worse. The one I got has a wooden paint effect to it. It doesn't look like it's made of wood, but it's better than just a grey box.
Plus if anyone tries to break into it, it makes a noise like someone doing a sound effect of a thunderstorm with a sheet of metal,
