if you are looking for a back yard play item for your kids, this is the best. Forget the swing set and slide. They are so limiting age wise and get boring!!! 3 years to about 12 years old will love this piece. They climb, sit on top of, play inside of (you can put a sheet over it and make a cave or club house. I had one at my state licensed daycare center years ago and saw first hand how great a toy it was So, when I recently needed to get something for my grand children, ages 1, 2.5 and 4, I knew this was what to get. I was correct. the two older children started climbing at once. The 1 year old would hold on to the lower bar and "hang". Cousins visited, ages 8 and 11 and they were all over it. Putting it together is the hard part. Takes 2 people and about 2-3 hours. Worth it! The free shipping to your door step can't be beat. You can easily mover it to mow under it. Seriously, the best piece of equipment ever!!

My daughter discovered this climber at a friends house. She pretty much spent the entire party dangling and climbing. Before I knew it the climber was purchased and set up on our lawn where it continues to be climbed upon. It's now the go to toy for both kids (5 and 2). I would not hesitate to recommend This and I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

I have to admit, the climber is built better than I thought it would be. Not sure about the six hundred pound limit, but I weigh 300 and it held me easily when I tested it. It took me and my 10 year old about 1 1/2 hours to put together following the directions. I did not follow the directions when assembling the green five arm pieces. It said to tighten them, I left them barely loose. Then after everything was assembled, lifted the climber up to align it, then tightened all the bolts. I read a review that said the climber was hard to move around for mowing. If you move it by lifting one side up and drag it, I do not think it will last very long. If you get inside and pick it up by pushing up in the top center, I think this climber will last for a very long time.

My kids got this for Christmas! They love it! I know this will provide years of fun! It is sturdy and well built. And I love anything that keeps my kids active and outside. It took my husband a couple hours by himself to build this but would be eaiser with an extra hand. (He is very handy so may be more difficult for someone who is not handy) I am very impressed with this product it is definitely worth every penny spent!

I bought this about 6 months ago and couldn't be happier. My son (4) climbs all over it. I love that it supports up to 600lbs. I climb it with him! I love how big this is too, 5ft high, and 10ft diameter. Plenty of room for many kids. Instructions were easy to follow, and didn't take long to build.

We purchased this item a couple of weeks before Christmas. After the first of the year, I spent 2 hours putting the dome together. The instructions were easy to understand. (They were simple drawings.) Two of my grand kids, ages 4 & 5 years old, came over the next day and climbed all over the dome. They had a blast and can't wait to come back over. The dome had extra parts in case anything might have been missing. Everything was there. We would buy this item all over again!

The idea is nice, but after 2 months I still haven't assembled the darn thing. The bolts are way too short, the bars can't be put flat on top of each other, it's extremely difficult to put together, nothing wants to stay in place or come together. The low bolts are 1/2" TOO SHORT, there's no space for washers there when hand aligned, there's barely any space to even put a washer on... Extremely laborious and frustrating to put together. I've remodeled 3 houses in the last 2 years, and this is by far the most challenging task I ever had to do. Kudos to 400+ reviewers who put it together, you guys are my heroes, I don't have the nerves for this garbage.

Our kids are 10, 7, and 3 and after being frustrated by poor quality on a supposed top brand expensive wooden playset, we saw the good reviews on this and decided to try it. Their favorite part of the previous set had been the monkey bars. Assembly took 2 men 2 1/2 hours. The instructions were a big help. The kids are thrilled with it. The youngest hasn't quite figured out how to climb to the top, which is just fine, but that will happen soon enough. My 150 lb self can climb it, it seems very sturdy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this 3 years ago for Mother's Day!! It is amazing and has held up beautifully. We don't take it down for the winter, and you would never know!! It super easy to pull it around so you can mow under it...that was super important for my husband. My kids love it and are always climbing on it. I've even had my sisters who have graduated from high school climbing on it with the kids!

Very sturdy my husband and I both went on it. Easy to put together for the most part, Read through the entire directions first and sort everything out. When putting sides together put the bottom piece on also at that time or when you get to that part of the directions you will have to undo a bunch of stuff you already put together just to put it on. I took us about 1 1/2 hours to put together. Two adults can easily move it from one location to another.
