    I fancy getting a decent shed for my allotment, maybe 6 x 8 in size

    As a first point of call, I looked at the B & Q website and was surprised at how bad some of the ratings are.

    Where are the good suppliers please ?

    I think I would prefer a tongue and groove type, rather than the cheaper 'overlap' type..

    thanks !

    Couldn't say the best but I bought one online (think it was shedstore) and it was 'fine'. Same as most sheds I've seen (apart from my dads old cedarwood one from about an eon ago, built to last lol). To be honest I would look at making your own. My shed I took apart after a couple of years to customise it and it is way stronger now. Not a hugely difficult project

    Bought my new shed from Elbec this year and it's a decent shed for the price. Don't buy from Waltons as my previous shed came from there and was utter turd.
