Dropped $300 on a cheap studio shed kit and now I'm patching leaks

Last spring I ordered one of those flat-pack shed kits from a big box store to turn into my recording space. Looked fine on paper but the roof panels warped after two months of summer sun. I've already spent another $150 on sealant and flashing trying to keep the rain out. Has anyone else had luck with a specific brand of backyard studio building that actually holds up?

@felix488 might be onto something with the scratch build idea. I had a similar headache with a shed from a local chain store, ended up tossing a cheap tarp over the whole thing for a season before giving up. Now I just use it for storing lawn gear and the leaks actually help keep the soil bags damp.

Man, a buddy of mine tried the same thing and ended up just building one from scratch instead.
