Been looking for a shed, anyone have this one? I have never liked sliding barn doors and favor the traditional swing doors, wondering this door setup is against rain and rodents.

I had one at my old house. Front door didn't leak, but I did have to a leak from somewhere else on the back. Might depends which direction rain normally comes from on your property also. Never had an issue with the sliding door getting hung up etc, but I also prefer swinging doors.
I've also been looking for a shed just can't bring myself to spend 1000 bucks on plasticSomebody tell me the reasons why that is a foolish opinion
Because many of the pieces will be broken from delivery in cold weather (if that's where you live) and you won't find out until you've been out in the cold for hours assembling. On the other hand, you're buying from Costco and they'll likely take care of any issues
Too sweeten the deal, I bought two racks that are from Costco direct category and was able to get additional $100 off per item. I bought two small gladiator racks to install in the shed.
I feel like you get more usable wall space with a sliding door.

Resin lasts forever and needs no stain, sanding, or power washing. It will never rot or get termites. You only really need an electric drill/driver to assemble, though a rubber mallet may help.
That said, the shed I got (not this model) had some components that were somewhat warped, so it became a challenge getting the screw holes to line up. It's not a one-person job.
Pallet Shed dirt-cheap.You only need to buy screws, stain, and a few parts along with a crowbar and saw.
When the sunlight degrades the plastic, no way to resurface like wood (sand, power wash, stain, etc) to make it look new.
Depending on locale, disposal end-of-life may be expensive (plastic disposal vs organic).
If you want to mount things inside, easy to drill anchors into wood. That plastic? No idea if it'll hold up.
I've had a Keter 4x7 plastic shed at the corner of my property for garden supplies that's 21 years old and still holding up nicely. That being said, the shed is shaded by a tree and doesn't get much direct sunlight. The plastic shelf on the inside started to sag, but supported it with a 2x4 and going strong.
