I'd highly recommend the Stilla Maple shed. It was surprisingly easy to assemble, with clear instructions that made the whole process straightforward. Once completed, it looks fantastic and has a really premium feel. The quality of the materials is excellent, and it feels solid and well-built. I'm very happy with the finished result and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality garden shed.
Purchased the 8 x 4 Wattle Cedar Shed from Stilla and I am very happy with the design and quality of the shed. The shed arrived ahead of the promised time and the instructions were clear and easy to follow and quality of the cedar was excellent with all the parts well packaged and easy to identify (screws, nails and even a drill bit). Would highly recommend this great Queensland product. Show reply
We purchased the Hamilton Designer studio after seeing the Stilla display at the Melbourne Home Show. From our first meeting with Flora the entire process was smooth and very reassuring. Emails were sent throughout the entire period keeping us updated on delivery dates, installation, etc. The delivery by Mainfreight was very easy to follow with… Read more · 1
their online tracking and numerous emails giving us live time delivery updates. Their driver was very professional in the unloading too.
We chose to pay for installation by others and honestly it was well worth the extra cost. While the entire studio is technically designed for confident DIYers, I think its best left to the professionals. James from Kitset Assembly Services was a pleasure to have on site and made all the hard work look easy.
We've chosen to line our studio with plasterboard so additional studs were required in the walls and ceiling but this was a simple process. The natural cedar finish blends beautifully into the garden and the monument trim matches our existing home perfectly.
I'd highly recommend Stilla studios for anyone looking for a professional finish and something a bit nicer than your average garden shed.

I purchased a Master Shed 8 x 12. I was very fortunate to have friends assist me in building the shed. It was built in 2 days, with 1 hour lunch breaks & reading the instructions time. We had to go to the hardware store to purchase some concrete floor bolts, they weren't supplied because I chose to have a concrete slab rather than a sub… Read more · 2
floor. There were a couple of tweaks we had to do eg 50 mm hole for the door handle was too short, we had to drill a new hole for the handle to lock. I have photos to show. I'm very happy with my Master Shed.
Purchased the Wattle 8x4 cedar shed and have been overwhelmingly happy with the experience. Ordering online was very easy. Delivery interstate was very efficient and Stilla were very helpful in actually delaying delivery to meet my needs. The online instructions allowed me to do a slab in advance of delivery and the sizing was spot on.… Read more · 1
Constructing the shed was so easy and the instructions very helpful - evidenced by me being 62 and doing it solo without any issues. Very happy with the quality of the finished product. Highly recommended.

Stilla provided me with all of the answers to my questions prior to putting in my order . It arrived promptly and the pst purchase support was great. We knew when the kit was arriving and were given plenty of tips in the construction faze. The manual was fairly easy to follow and I have to say that their follow up after the purchase was the same throughout . I would highly recommend dealing with Stilla . Show reply
Very pleased with all aspects of dealing with Stilla and quality of shed. Ordering process was very easy, excellent communication from initial contact to dispatch/tracking. Arrived on specified date. Shed was moderately complex to assemble, but supplied instructions were excellent. Price very reasonable. Shed looking good... Show reply
Great sheds using quality timber. Easy to build with clear and easy to follow instructions. Ordered and received just before Christmas which was fantastic. I built my own floor but used the dimensions provided and the shed attached with ease. Great to work with timber, rather than steel ( more forgiving) easy to screw together with the provided… Read more · 1

Stilla Maple 12x6 Cedar Shed – We purchased the shed along with the floor kit. Installing the floor kit took some time, but careful preparation made assembling the rest of the shed much easier. My wife assisted me with putting up the walls, doors, and windows, and we only needed an extra hand to install the roof, which proved to be the most… Read more · 1
challenging part. It was a smooth process from beginning to end. We bought the shed to increase our storage space, and it's become an attractive addition to our garden.
The purchasing experiance was excellent, I was kept informed of the progress, right down to the delivery. Very impressed by the quality and design, so it went together really well. There are probably a few "tips" that could be added to the instructions. But very happy, will buy from Stilla for my next shed. Show reply
Finally got my dream shed. Shocked at how simple it was to put together. The instruction manual was fantastic, pictures and clear instruction at each step. Show details · 1
Loved our whole experience working with Stilla from start of the buying experience to finishing the build. Ens result is a perfect workshop that will add value to our property and make life so much easier in what is tremendously attractive design. Thank you to all the team through the process Show reply
I purchased a Stilla Olive 12x8 Studio to use as a creative space in my backyard. Delivery was very fast and they kept me upto date on the delivery so I knew when we could expect it. Stilla was great at responding to questions and very helpful in all of the process. My husband built all the foundations and together with a mate put the cabin… Read more · 1
together over 4 weekends. We had delays with the weather due to a lot of rain but could use space in garage to paint pieces while waiting for weather to clear. I am so happy with the final result and it is more than I expected. I really love the feel of the cabin and since getting the power on, I have started working on some overdue sewing projects. Thank you Stilla for your help and the price was very reasonable given the result. We are not building a privacy screen at the end of the deck.

Highly recommend STILLA. We purchased a flat pack studio kit from them and the help, support and advice was amazing. I felt supported straight away getting quick responses to my questions and advice when needed. Nothing was too hard and their repose time to emails was incredibly quick. They organised every detail including freight and… Read more
installation. Flora was very helpful answering the numerous questions I sent and even the silly ones with. She was more than happy to customise the studio plans to meet our needs. They organised installation via Kitset assembly services who were also absolutely amazing. I cannot believe the whole experience was so easy, quick and stress free. Would most definitely use them again and have recommended them to all my friends.
Purchasing the Hyland was such an easy process. Installers were great human beings with attention to detail. Priming in and out, flooring and it turned into a gorgeous art studio. It has natural light from the skylight coming through. It's very solid, great built and looks so stylish, specially after that oil based primer and paintwork. Bravo Stilla! Show details · 1

smooth.
What really stood out to me was the same-day installation done by Ali. There was an installation delay of one week by the installer from the actual date which was the only hickup on otherwise a seemless process. I truly appreciate how hassle-free the whole experience was!
The quality of the shed is outstanding. The materials feel solid and well-made, and now that it’s fully installed, it’s clear the structure is built to last.
By day, it’s my zen home office… by evening, a chill coffee corner, family fun space… and by night? Let’s just say the shed knows how to party!
I couldn’t be happier—highly recommend!

Stilla Olive 12x8 Studio – Exceptional Quality and Experience I purchased the Stilla Olive 12x8 Studio as an art space for my wife, and the experience has exceeded expectations at every stage. Delivery was remarkably fast, and the inclusion of extra hardware ensured there were no shortages during assembly. I was particularly impressed that a… Read more · 1
required auger drill bit was included – a thoughtful and unexpected addition.
Installation was a genuine pleasure and took place over three weekends. The kit itself was one of the most enjoyable I’ve assembled, with precise components and clearly detailed instructions. The quality of materials and construction was outstanding throughout.
For a more refined look and enhanced functionality, I replaced the provided handle and lock with a Euro-style privacy set, allowing the studio to be locked from the inside. Once painted using an oil-based primer followed by acrylic undercoat and topcoat (see attached photo), the structure looked superb.
Internally, we are in the process of fitting out the space with wall and ceiling linings, electrical work, and a compact air conditioner. Landscaping around the studio will follow soon.
My wife, a practising artist, is thrilled with her new workspace. The additional window we purchased has made a significant difference, providing excellent natural lighting for her creative work. Highly recommended.

Perfect – I don’t usually write reviews, but I felt I had to share my experience with the Stilla garden shed we just bought. It came as a flat pack, and I was a bit nervous about putting it together myself. But honestly, the assembly was pretty straightforward. The instructions were clear, and I managed to get it up without too much hassle, which is saying… Read more · 1
something for a backyard handyman like me!
The quality of the materials really impressed me. Everything felt solid and well-made, and now that it’s all put together, the shed is sturdy and looks like it was built by a pro.
What really caught our eye about the Stilla shed was its stunning design. There’s nothing else quite like it out there. It adds a nice touch to our garden, and we’ve received compliments from neighbors already.
Overall, we’re really happy with our purchase. I’m glad we found Stilla, and I’d definitely recommend this shed to anyone looking for something stylish and durable. It’s been a great addition to our outdoor space!

I have a whole new room! – We bought an Ascot 12x8 and the heavy duty floor and self assembled. Buying this kit made it super easy and fast to get a ready-to-go building to then customise. The shed is good to go out of the box, good quality materials but still lightweight and easy to assemble. We lined the walls with some timber studs tying it in to the floor and roof… Read more
frame, insulated, plastered, lined the ceiling then tiled and added a few cabinets and a fridge after having an electrician run power to it. It will serve as an outdoor room for the kids and grownups to hang out away from the house. The extra space is a game changer and DIY customisation of the already excellent shed made the whole process way faster and easier than designing and building something from scratch. Not to mention that due to it's size, when placed correctly on the property, I didn't need a council permit where I live.
The team were super helpful in ordering, even when I changed my mind and added stuff after I ordered, and they took care of me afterwards getting some bits and pieces out to me fast when I damaged one by mistake (my fault!).

The whole process was a wonderful experience right from the first enquiry. Flora was amazing the delivery from Mainfreight was seamless and Ratu and his employees were extremely polite and wonderful during the installation of the shed. We are totally impressed with the shed and how amazing the shed looks in the rear yard. We purchased the Pioneer shed with the annex and deck.. A very happy customer. Show details · 1

I have recently purchased and had a Stilla shed installed on my property. Absolutely outstanding quality and service.

had displays I could easily view, the ordering was so easy, extremely friendly and professional staff, free delivery, and installation process was impeccable. There was one tiny glitch receiving the wrong type of hinges and Stilla refunded me the cost of replacing with correct hinges no questions asked. Completely satisfied, was an absolute dream dealing with this company and I’m extremely happy with the result. 100% recommend.
We purchased the Maple 12 x 6 shed. As seen in the attached photo we used it as part of our pool fence to add some privacy to our pool. It houses our pool pump, other pool equipment and pool toys. There is still plenty of room inside to use it as a change room if we wish. It's a very attractive Cedar shed and many visitors to our place have made… Read more · 1
positive comments on the shed. Easy to erect with all the family chipping in over a weekend. If I had to sum up the Maple in one word I say "Stylish." Great communication with very helpful staff answering questions in a timely manner. I can see many uses for this shed and others available by Stilla and would not hesitate in purchasing another if we ever have the need.
We purchased the Hyland 8x6 Cedar shed with sub floor in June 2025 and are very happy with our purchase. The entire process from purchase to completion was seamless and easy. Communication was efficient and timely . We elected to use the suggested installer to construct our shed and that was a great decision!! Our shed looks amazing and there is room for all of our garden stuff! Show details · 1

Stilla were an absolute pleasure to deal with. Their products are brilliant and the quality second to none. You would be mad to have a steel shed in your garden when you can have something elegant and timeless like a cedar shed. Show reply
I had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Both Flora and Murray were absolutely great, always professional and friendly. They were very fast from order / payment / delivery / Installation. Installation team was also outstanding, they came on site at 8 am, they finished at 3 pm and they left no rubbish nor mess behind!

Whole process has been brilliant - from ordering, the delivery, and building it myself. I'd call myself a "weekend warrior" - no tradesman, but I found the installation easy to follow.

garden shed on a slab, we now have a beautiful home office :)
(Unfortunately the weather wasn't beautiful when I took the photo!)
One tip is to make sure you silicone the joins between panels thoroughly as this has been my only water entry (I siliconed the bottom of the panels to the slab and no leaks here). Contacted Stilla to get some new cover strips and they were so helpful.
Stained with the Integrain UltraDeck Timber stain, painted the windows/doors Surfmist to match the roof.
Very happy with the shed, it is a lot better quality and has greater strength than i thought it would. I very much recommend that anyone needing space this is by far the best option. Very happy customer Show 2 replies

over Christmas and resolved it very quickly and efficiently. Delivery was on time, the builders found it easy to put together (we cheated and called in the professionals!) I really can't recommend this product and experience enough
Stilla Olive Studio – We bought an Olive Studio and are very pleased with the result. Delivery was within the timeframe stated and assembly was relatively easy. The roof was the only tricky bit simply because of the weight of each section. The key to a good build result is to ensure you get the foundations absolutely square (we had a heavy duty floor), even 1 or 2mm out will mean everything else gets out of line and you'll have to make minor modifications.

Great experience – Quality of our glendale shed was great. It was relatively simple to put together for a DIYer, but having a few extra pairs of hands helped - particularly the roof. Would recommend. Show details · 1
Simple process from start to finish – Highly recommend Stilla as a product & as a company to deal with. I purchased the Barakula Studio & the staff were very helpful in all aspects of this process. I am not a tradesman so was somewhat concerned about my ability to assemble the shed; however, the instruction manual was very detailed & the process straightforward. Show details · 1
