Love my new shed!
Clear instructions, very well built. It gave me confidence in my carpentry skills and is the pride of my little place. thank you!

Very helpful on the order desk and the product was delivered on time and in perfect condition.
The pergola is exactly what I wanted and hoped for
The pergola is exactly what I wanted my son in law and a friend put it up in about 8 hours or so.
I used cetol on all the pieces in my garage and am extremely happy with the final product. Everything went together easily and all the hardware was included.
Alright
Some of the window muntins were warped, the heat must have melted the plastics. The framing for the floor was more narrow than then plywood provided so had to make ajustements. There is definitely not enough caulking provided for work, instruction manual could be upgraded and pieces better identified. Overall ok but one needs to be pretty handy and savy to build even if it comes assembled.

Great products
Great products. Excellent service. Clear instructions. Everything fit together properly.
We have two OLT products: a gazebo and a pergola.
Very happy with both.
Delivery was excellent!
The only real contact I had with OLT was from deliver. It was very well organized and professional. I was very pleased with it.
Great design, instruction, product and service
Great product, awesome customer service and very well thought out design and instructions. My wife and I were able to stain, and build a 20'x8' Pergola and a raised garden ourselves! Highly recommend Outdoor Living Today!
Fun to assemble and beautiful
Fun to assemble and beautiful! Make sure those few shingles you must install do not have space under them or they will split. Shim them where possible as the preinstalled shingles can very in thickness significantly from the customer installed ones. This thickness variation will cause shingles to not sit flush on the overlaps, and those gaps will cause the shingle to split when nailing it down.
Super easy and pleasant to deal with
Super easy and pleasant to deal with. Bonus: they're Canadians, so they're real chill.
Great playhouse
Great playhouse. Fun to build. Grandkids love it. 👍👌
Excellent Experience
Excellent Experience! Quality product and their customer service team was outstanding...right down to the delivery. I am very happy with my purchase!
Bad after sales customer service
We purchased the garden box through Costco. OLT had great pre-sale customer service: they answered all of our questions and gave us tips for installation.
We received the package and had issues with the quality of product. Sent them an email with pictures and no one bothered to get back to us...
Repeat buyer
I've purchased small toolsheds from this company a few times for work projects. They consistently have great customer service, clear directions, and durable products.
Best customer contact ever
Great quality product (cedar storage shed) and absolutely fantastic personal customer service! I would buy from them again in a heartbeat.
Very nice greenhouse.
My greenhouse is finally complete and ready to use. We only worked on it part time. So it took awhile. I stained it and then we added grow lights and anchored it to tile flooring over gravel and sand. Everyone, who sees it, says it is the nicest one they have ever seen in someone’s yard.
Customer service is out of this world…
Customer service is out of this world (thank you Ute!). The gazebo is almost a joy to put together; everything fits like a well made puzzle, and the instruction manual is clear, with precise step-by-step pictures. Packaging is excellent; we had to wait for the stonework to be done, and in the process the gazebo saw two winters with temperatures dropping below -30 Celcius and lots of snow. When we opened it this spring, it smelled and looked as if it was shipped yesterday. It was still in pristine condition! This gazebo is of great quality and old fashioned, precision, craftsmanship. We love it!
