[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] LIFETIME did it again! This dome climber is the best jungle gym I've ever seen. Kids can climb it like a mountain, hang on it, hang upside down from it, use it as a fort, and so many other things! Our kids are at the perfect ages to enjoy this now and to use it for many more years to come--they're 6 and 3. The 3-year-old can't really climb it on his own yet but loves hanging off of the nearest bars he could grab and jumping off. This is quite a big structure and the kids can stand straight up underneath it, making it a great fort to camp under. We love that it's very sturdy, a great structure that builds the kids' strength and agility, built to last, and the colors work great in our backyard! The kids had their friends over and they all had fun--including the parents! Two grown men built this in about 1.5 hours – it is helpful reading and carefully following the instructions (dads who think they know better). At one point when we were tightening the screws one broke off! But, thank you Lifetime for even thinking about that in advance as they gave extra nuts and bolts with the package. It does have a large footprint but that just means more kids (and adults) can be on at the same time. We trust the Lifetime brand to be solidly built and to last a lifetime, and we think this one definitely will.

Very nice to look at it very confusing and complicated to put together. The directions need to be explicitly clear and too many languages confuse what to do next. Only at the bottom do you see what should occur next rather than with the top directions!!!

This is a very solid and well made piece. It does take two adults to put together, but it is not hard to do. The grips at the joints help smaller kids climb and provide a solid footing. My kids and the neighborhood kids have had a blast on this. They are building strength, coordination, and creativity. When they are tired of climbing, they make a fort out of it. Overall, this was a great purchase and I know will provide hours of fun.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had this just under a month and the kids can't stay off of it. I have two boys who love to climb so they are constantly all over it. They use it for climbing, pretend it's a base or house, decorate it, or just want to eat their lunch under it. My suggestion is to read the instructions even the print at the bottom. We put it together and had to undo it a couple times because we missed an instruction. You have to assemble the first shape several times and then put all those together to make the dome.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Dome Climber has been a great addition to our backyard adventures this summer. I was a little concerned about adding any play equipment to the yard, out of fear that it would require maintenance, but was delighted to find out the Dome Climber requires none. I found the materials to be sturdy and high quality, and handle Utah's extreme weather with ease. I'm happy to say that the unit fit easily into the back of my SUV, and I was able to get the box loaded into my car with the help of a store employee. I had to leave on a business trip the evening I brought the Dome home, so I didn't have time to assemble it. My kids were excited, so my wife decided to give it a go solo. She finished it in about three hours. She told me that the parts were clearly labeled and assembly was easy as long as long as you followed the directions closely. She said that if thorough step by step directions with pictures hadn't have been included, assembly would have been difficult. The only issue we had, was my wife didn't know her own strength and sheared a few of the bolts. Lifetime included a spare bolt, but we needed a few more. I contacted Lifetime about getting replacement bolts and they took great care of me. They mailed the replacements to my home at no charge and in a timely manner. As you can see from the photos, we have a really large, expensive high-maintenance playset for my boys that they barely use. I should have bought it from Lifetime. I would have paid a fraction of the cost and it would have held up much better. The Dome Climber has been a much different story. It is like pulling teeth getting my boys off of the Dome Climber. It is worth every penny. They absolutely love it! My boys are constantly inviting friends over to enjoy it, and it has unlocked parts of their play and imagination I hadn't seen before. My wife and I are thrilled! Thank you Lifetime!

Our daughter loves this. My only complaint is the instructions were not easy to follow.

the kids love this thing and it looks like art - win, win

We couldn't figure out what to do with a section of our yard, when I saw this online. It looks terrific and creates our own personal park.

Very nice product. Love the finish to help against rust and keep cooler for little hands when climbing when the sun and heat is high.

The grandkids LOVE it! One concern - we would like to purchase the canopy separately now. Yet cannot find it on your site...
