SHOPPERS at Lowe's have found a tiny home starter selling for less than $1,000.

Lowe's is selling a two-tone, 10-foot shed for just $944.

The Woodridge Galvanized Steel Storage Shed ties woodgrain and coffee wood-like stains together in its design.

Despite the wood grain look, the shed is covered in steel, so it won't rot.

Lowe's claims the steel has "corrosion resistance and protects the shed against rust and UV exposure."

The shed comes with a pitched roof, a double door, and is resistant to bugs and weather damage.

The double doors slide open like a barn door.

Inside the shed, the shed's roof peak reaches 6.7 feet.

The interior dimensions are 9.8 feet by 5.5 feet.

Customers must assemble the home - if they want to make it into a livable space, ventilation, windows, and other modern amenities.

Lowe's does not explicitly call the structure a tiny home.

Lowe's proposes that the shed can be used for extra storage, particularly for outdoor or gardening gear.

"Keep outdoor items secured and out of site and free up garage space," the company wrote in the listing.

"Our sheds can store garden tools, lawn equipment, grilling gear, outdoor furniture, seasonal décor, and bulk items can be stored in our sheds."

Lowe's points to the shed's sliding doors as a solution that lets users maximize space.

Instead of swinging into usable storage space, the doors gently glide behind the shed's front walls.

Customers gave the shed 3.7 out of five stars in 14 reviews.

"The shed was easy to install and actually quite fun," one customer said in their five-star review.

Another customer called it a "straightforward build and easy to follow" in a four-star review.

They cautioned potential buyers that the metal walls are thin and can easily bend and that every screw must have a washer.

"The shed will NOT be waterproof without them and you will see drops forming on the inside during rain," they advised.

"Trust me, I missed a few!!"
