We purchased this teeter-totter for our church playground. After being used for several months, some of the plastic pieces came off (or may have been taken off by kids!). I contacted Lifetime & they shipped out replacement parts very quickly. I have been very pleased with their customer service. The only negative comment I have is that the colors on the plastic seats, etc. are fading quickly from the sun.

The directions were terrible! There has got to be a better way to assemble this thing! My husband and I did it ourselves and you have to connect and reconnect parts and the parts are not labeled clearly enough nor were the directions clear enough. The bags need to be labeled for each screw type better. We love it now that it is together but I truly dread ever having to move and/or take it apart again!

I bought this for my gransdson's birthday and he loves it! It is very heavy, sturdy and comes with safety requirements. It is large, so make sure you measure adequately and have sufficient lawn to put this on. I read the reviews before hand and one of the cons was that it took a long time to put together. With two adults, it took 6 hours, so be prepared. It is worth it, though. It is well made.

It looks great in backyard and I was able to put it together myself (though help would have been nice) My 4 and 6 year old love it-not to mention the neighborhood kids. My son would be on it every day if it weren't so cold and wet out. Great buy. Only problem was I had to call the company because there was a mistake in the directions. But even that she was able to help me with no problem.

I bought this climber about a month ago. It arrived a week sooner than forecast. I was impressed with the quality of the components and the packaging. I found it easy to assemble by myself. When complete, it is 10 ft across at the base and just over 5 ft tall in the center. We placed it on a section of lawn. The only concern I have, being a retired engineer and metal fabricator, is that it must be lifted to be moved for mowing. Otherwise one can bend the lower joint which would fail eventually. Small metal braces, about 1 1/2 in wide and 4 in long, for both sides of the joint would be helpful.

Since folks complaining about this were upset about metal rusting, I got two cans of Rustoleum (1 for now and 1 for 6 months). I sprayed everything before assembling. The final dimensions are not listed properly here, the delivery box size is what they listed. The box is heavy as it’s made predominantly with metal. This took ~30 minutes to spray everything down with rustolium and another 3.5 hours to assemble with my toddler “helper” popping in to test drive. I also had to move it to another location midway as the size was much bigger. Everything is well drilled except the dashboard which was the only thing I had an issue with. I busted the drill out since my grip was shot already by that point. The directions were easy to follow and the 4 sections have a separate packet of nuts, bolts, and washers. This was super easy since I just used an exacto knife on the back to expose everything and everything stayed in place with the labels clear to see. This suggests to assemble with 3 people, but it’s possible for one adult female to do. I’m sure I wouldn’t be as stiff if I had another adult helping though. Hunching over so long kills me. It would have taken less time with more hands. It moves smoothly and is very enjoyable for the kiddo.

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.

I bought this climber for my five year old and it's just the right size. I would say it's perfect for small kids and up to about age 10. The quality of this prodect seems good for the price. We'll have to see how long it holds up. As for now I'm happy I got it and my kids are having alot fun climbing and hanging off the bars on this dome climber.

This dome was the perfect addition to our yard. Our son gets tons of hours on it climbing and hanging upside down. It did take 3 of us to put together but it wasn’t difficult. It’s sturdy and heavy enough to stay in place, but not too heavy to move in order to mow.

Our kids love it. It arrived promptly just like I was told it would. The reviews said it was somewhat difficult to put together. And if you're doing it alone I imagine it might be hard. The second part of the assembly specifically says it needs to be standing upright. But for my husband and me it was pretty easy. It's definitely sturdy; we both got on it with the kids and it didn't fall apart ha!
