This was shipped quickly. We just assembled it yesterday. The directions were a bit hard to follow, but you can kinda tell what pieces go where. It was not that hard to assemeble. A socket rachet tool made things MUCH easier. It seems strong. My 200+ lb friend climbed on it with my daughter. Hopefully it will give us years of enjoyment. Good price for a substantial product.

The dome is really good quality. Fairly easy for two people to put together. The only problem we have is that it is a little big for our tall 6 year old granddaughter. We had to put something next to it for her to stand on so that she could climb up on it. She will grow into it though and should get better at climbing it once she gets more confidant. She also needs some sneakers with good gripping soles or bare feet.

Love this climbing dome, perfect for the little ones-- probably would be fine for even up to 10 year olds, wish I could have gotten the larger one but had already sold out. Rated 4 stars because the directions were terrible-- luckily had my sister-in-law with me that had also just put one together so she had already gone through the tough part but really the directions need to be color coded. One tip-- don't screw in ANYTHING tight until the absolute end as you have to unscrew every few minutes to add bars to each stack while building.

I bought the dome for my grandchildren and they all absolutely love it!!! They're ages range from 2-11. Its very sturdy and well made. My husband did have to YouTube how to put it together but it wasn't very hard. It does take 2 ppl to put together.

We purchased three years ago. It's held up really well and surprisingly our daughter (now 8yr old) and her friends always still like to use this regularly. They never tire of it. Pretty durable. Easy enough to move around the yard if needed (for mowing, etc.). Customer service was outstanding in helping me get a replacement bar quickly and easily... after the kids kept flexing the bar over the years (dragging the dome rather than picking it up) and it eventually broke in one spot that had rusted from the yard sprinklers hitting it over years. Seems like it lasted a reasonable amount of time. However, I do recommend you try to move it by picking it up and placing it down... rather than dragging it across the yard, which then causes the bar joints to flex... and over time can result in breakage.

Got this for our 6 and 8 year old for Christmas and they love it. I can’t speak to how assembly went, as my husband took care of that. He had a couple people help him and they were done in 2 hours or so. A few months after we got it, a large branch fell out of a tree during a storm and landed on our climbing dome, bending two of the bars. Customer service was amazing in helping me get the extra parts we needed to repair it. Highly recommend.

The 66" dome is LARGE and heavy, make sure you understand the space required before you purchase. So far it has been great for our 6 yo, 3 yo growing into it - he can't quite climb it yet but I expect he will have it mastered by the end of the month. Climbing dome took me about two hours to assemble from start to finish by myself. A socket wrench is definitely helpful and makes the job quick. Highly recommend watching the assembly video first and closely studying the diagram of pole order as I had to fix a few mistakes along the way. Fully assembled the structure is very heavy but I can still move (drag) it around our yard for mowing purposes.

It is a great piece of playground equipment. The only drawback is the directions. It was difficult to put together, and after we were done, my 15 year old said, "It would have been much easier if we had done it differently." He needs to rewrite the directions for anyone else buying it! I did buy tent stakes for it; living in the Texas Panhandle, I want to be sure it stays on the ground! Overall, it is great.

Takes about 4 hours to put together with two people, only a few snags along the way as the directions are a little unclear at times. To my surprise, it is nice and sturdy and a good size for kids to play on. Wish the rock climbing grips were either all one size, or divided appropriately that a pattern could be used for the two sizes. Also wish the safety sticker wasn't plastered right in the middle of the set.

We purchased the dome about 4 years ago for our twin grandchildren, whom we watch 4 days a week. They are 7 years old now and they still enjoy climbing all over it. It's been a real treat for us to watch how much they have advanced in their confidence. We now have a 3 year old granddaughter who watches the twins and has started to hang on the lower bars. All I can say is that this is the best thing we bought for our grandchildren. Also, I had a problem with one of the lower bars and your customer service was fantastic in helping me. Thank you.
