Figures i paid $400 more a couple months ago.
That said its a nice looking shed.
It will require warm temps to put alot of it together so you can strong arm it to flex into position. The roof is definitely a two person job and again let the roof panels heat up in the sun...here in Chicago when It was 80s out was still difficult. Could never get the doors to fit flush and Customer support is missing in action if you need help. I blame the molding and warped parts.
Over all its ok and we will see if it lasts through a Chicagoland winter.
Its not waterproof do open slats where bottom of wall panels attach to floor panels. They are like drains every 24"
I personally would stay away from "lifetime".. I have a previous post somewhere on the slick that shows a photo of the front of mine it has a split down the seams on all 4 corners after 2 years.. Lifetime did not honor the warranty and are a mockery to be called "lifetime"..
I suggest you try suncast / keter / rubbermaid / sears.. anything but this cheap doodie
Options were way better last week...
Check reviews! They are a bit rough...
You can always get free plans and buy and cut the stuff for less than one of these kits...
Costco does have sales on them a few times a year...
I have been been watching prices for about 18 months.

I have to build a concrete slab to build it on, recently I saw dry pour concrete, maybe it's time to prepare
Did this 6 months ago for a 7x7 shed just to try it. Worked great for a 4" slab. Make sure you wear a mask and use wire mesh once your form is half way filled.

Any good YouTube videos that shows how to do this?

I bought a 8x10 by the same company last summer. Pretty good shed. Don't regret it. I reinforced the interior with a bunch of 2x3s and beforehand screwed together a foundation using pressure treated 2x4s. It was a great summer project
Bought this at a higher price a few months back. I'm tough on product quality and would put it at good not great. But good is still pretty dang good. I'm not afraid to send the whole shed back if it were cheap junk, but that wasn't even a thought.

My shed is 10X12 and it's great. Me and the neighbor had it up in a few hours, not counting the foundation. We had two cordless screwguns going.
The only assembly issue was getting the swinging doors to line up perfectly. took a minute, but got there eventually.
Mine is dry, tight and pretty solid. It's only been a few months, but if it's anything like my other Lifetime holdings it will be fine.
For $1,000 this is a deal!
