Our verdict on the 2 x 3m Insulated Garden Room

The 2 x 3m Insulated Garden Room comes with a pent style roof, holds a 10 Years guarantee, and fit with double doors.

Our experts say this has 4 stand out features. A stand out feature is something found on over 70% of the top 10% of products in a particular category or is an exceptionally good feature as rated by our panel of experts.

1. The shiplap tongue & groove cladding used on this shed is one the best available for sheds rated by our experts.

2. A 72mm thick cladding like the one used on walls of this shed is one of the best rated by our experts.

3. A 16mm thick roof construction as thick as this is something our expert rate to be one of the best available on sheds.

4. A floor that is 16mm thick is something our experts say is one of the best available for this kind of shed.

Below is a brief overview of how some of the key points of this shed fairs across the market.

Cladding

Fantastic, our experts say most of the cladding options used are among the best.

The shiplap tongue & groove cladding(walls) used here is one of the best forms of construction for walls and is the only type [1] we’ve identified on same-size sheds, that you’ll also see getting used on 31% (1,373 of 4,360) of all sheds analysed [2], as well as being used on 42% (185 of 436) of the top 10% of sheds [3]. You’ll also find the shiplap tongue & groove cladding showing up on 29% of 6′ x 9′ sheds (85 in total) [4], and when taking the average Expert Score of those 6′ x 9′ sheds (90), the 2 x 3m Insulated Garden Room is the same with an Expert Score of 90.

The walls are 72mm thick and we rate this the best thickness out of the 3 found on same-size sheds [5]. It is used on 1% of all sheds [6] and after analysing the top 436 products that make up the top 10% of sheds [7], we don’t find this thickness present on any of them. 1% of 6′ x 9′ sheds (4 in total) use 72mm thick walls [8], and when taking the average Expert Score of those 6′ x 9′ sheds (89), the 2 x 3m Insulated Garden Room is just above the average with an Expert Score of 90.

Roofing

Osb is the of construction method used for the roofing, our experts rate this one of the best forms of roof material out of the 2 types we’ve found on same-size sheds [9]. This roofing material is used on 18% of all sheds analysed, and 8% of the top 10% of sheds. While you’ll find that the Expert Score of this shed is 1 point lower than the average for 6′ x 9’s that use osb roof material (90 vs the average of 91), you can be sure it’s not due to the roofing as this one of the highest scoring materials found on 6′ x 9′ sheds. 31% of 6′ x 9′ sheds (92 in total) use osb construction for the roof.

A 16mm thick roof boarding was used on this shed which is the best thickness used for a roofing material out of 4 thicknesses identified on same-size sheds [10]. It’s used on 1% of all sheds and 3% of the top 10% of sheds. 3% of 6′ x 9′ sheds (9 in total) use a 16mm thick roof boarding, and when taking the average Expert Score of those 6′ x 9′ sheds (90), the 2 x 3m Insulated Garden Room is the same with an Expert Score of 90.

This type of floor construction is used on 20% of all sheds we analysed, and 5% of the top 10% of those sheds. 29% of 6′ x 9′ sheds (86 in total) use osb construction for the floor.

A 16mm thick floor boarding is used here, this is the best floor board thickness according to our experts out of 4 found on same-size sheds [12]. It’s found on 3% of all sheds and used on 3% of the top 10% of sheds. 4% of 6′ x 9′ sheds (13 in total) use 16mm thick floor boarding, and when taking the average Expert Score of those 6′ x 9′ sheds (86), the 2 x 3m Insulated Garden Room is just above the average with an Expert Score of 90.

You Might Also Consider

If you are looking for the best value or highest expert scoring sheds out of the 296 with comparable specifications the following might be of interest.

Best value – If you are looking for something comparable that costs less, then you could save £5,849 with this Optional extra – Add top coat Barn 7′ x 7′ Dip Treated Shed Double Door with One Opening Window Top Coat. It is priced at £151, this is 3865% less than this and has an Expert Score of 87, 2 points less than the 2 x 3m Insulated Garden Room.

Highest Expert Score – With an Expert Score of 100 vs 90 for this product, the Oren 10′ x 6′ Shiplap Pent Bike Shed is the best 6′ x 9′ shed with comparable specifications, and is priced at £864, that’s £5,136 less than the 2 x 3m Insulated Garden Room.

High Wind Area – If you live in a particularly exposed or high wind area then having a shed with a thicker cladding and higher than average frame thickness can be preferable. We found at least 3 sheds that have a combination of features that can make them more suited to higher wind areas.

7′ x 7′ Forest Premium Tongue And Groove Pressure Treated Wooden Corner Shed
6’9 x 6’6 Shire Barn Double Door Wooden Garden Shed

Coastal Consideration – If you live in a particularly wet or harsher environment such as by the coast then you might want to consider something with a more robust pressure treatment or something made from metal or plastic, both materials that are particularly suited to such harsh environments. We’ve found at least 3 sheds that have a combination of features that can make them more suited to higher wind areas.

10′ x 5′ Absco Space Saver Double Door Metal Shed Zinc
7′ x 7′ Forest Premium Tongue And Groove Pressure Treated Wooden Corner Shed

Public-Facing – Extra security measures might be more of a concern if you’re placing your building in an area that is more public-facing than a garden. Features such as security windows or even having no windows at all, and the ability to lock all opening doors are usually much more important when you have something that is more public-facing. We found at least 3 sheds that have options that you might find a better fit if this is a concern you have.

More Child Friendly – If you have children and you are looking for something that has that little extra in terms of durability then tougher glazing options might be a better option. Here we have at least 3 other options that will fill those needs.
