You are right.

The OP hasn't even asked about consumer rights.

This thread is on the wrong board... should be on the Praise, Vents & Warnings board.

A pretty fundamental measurement is the internal height. I would expect to see this on the description (or at least be able to work it out if it gave, for example, the full height and the floor height).
From the door height it is pretty clear that the house is not 2m high, just that the roof is 2m off the ground. But I'm guessing that the OP assumed that the Ridge Height / Eaves Height gave an indication of the internal height. Not surprising, then, that they were disappointed.

I think it is badly described, but would probably say it is correctly described. (Assuming that the sizes given are correct. Obviously if the door height is, for example, 89cm rather than 98cm then this would be incorrect.)

Call me old-fashioned, but the height of any structure is normally measured starting from the ground.

Er, no, you're exepcted to apply a bit of common sense.

Common sense won't give us any insight into the actual size of the shed delivered to the OP.

Old fashioned or not, I agree with you. I've said in my post that it is correctly described (assuming the measurements are accurate).
But I also think that the most vital piece of information (internal height / standing height / whatever you want to call it) is missing, so some people may assume that the height reflects this.

Hi,

I'll move this one across to our warnings board since there is no request for consumer advice.
