Default Metal Sheds

I'm thinking about buying a metal shed,
what are people views, I have heard that there damp, with condensation
running down the sides ?? is this true


My "workshop" is a 10'x15' Yardmaster and I'm happy with it - but only
after significant modification. The condensation issue is very real -
when I first put it up it used to drip with damp (though the fact that
it started raining before the roof was finished meant that it had a fair
bit of moisture inside to start with). That's totally sorted now since I
clad the roof with 1" polystyrene and boarded the floor and the first 4
feet of the walls with OSB - feels really dry in there. This wasn't
cheap, and if I'd originally factored it in I might have gone for a
wooden shed in the first place.
