This is a bit big for our 2 and 4 year olds, but they will grow into it. It’s easy to move for mowing and very sturdy. I don’t know why people were complaining about assembly. Read all of the directions first and have someone around to help with the last part of assembly. We had it up in about an hour.

My children who love climbing have been playing on it every day since we've had it (a couple weeks). My 6 year old says it isn't challenging enough and still prefers our tree, but it gives them something else to play on besides just the tree. My 3 year old climbs all over it as well. I like that the colors are earth tone. It looks good in the backyard.

The dome came together pretty easily with a little help at the end from my husband, and has been easy to move when the grass needs to be mowed. I can even move it myself when I want to adjust the location of it. Most importantly, it is sturdy to climb on and my 7 year old daughter loves it!

Bought this for my great niece. Had item shipped to Wal Mart store where my niece and her boyfriend could pick it up and bring it home. The box arrived in good shape. UPS sent Amazon order back because pieces were missing when box opened(so they say. They never attempted delivery). So on the second attempt we tried Wal Mart site to store. Be aware this box weighs 100 lbs. so think twice having it shipped to your home. Item is not packaged well for such a journey. Well, after it was put together my great niece was a little tentative at first. They had to use a stool to have her reach the bar. Well that didn't last long, now she climbs all over with no help. It has been keeping her amused for hours right in her own backyard. She will have fun for a long time. I'm glad her grandpa and I chipped in the buy it for her. Money well spent. Highly recommend!!!

I have owned the climbing dome since 2017 and it is still very sturdy and my two boys really enjoy it (6 & 10 years). I reached out to Lifetime recently as some of the hardware (bolts, washers, etc.) were corroded, or in the process of rusting and deteriorating. Customer Support swiftly resolved that issue by sending a full set of hardware. I would recommend applying an anticorrosive on the hardware prior to assembling to avoid having to struggle to remove them later, especially if you move as often as my family does.

This product is fantastic! We bought this for Christmas for our son and he is loving it. The dome is very sturdy, holds several children, and was easy to assemble. It took my husband a few hours to complete on his own and he only needed another set of hands a few times. Would absolutely recommend to anyone!

My two three year old and one five year old grandsons seem to love it and play on it whenever they are here. Though the manufacturer recommends three adults for assembly, I had no difficulty doing it by myself. Took about three hours. Oh, when you lay out the parts, check inside the larger tubes for the 4 smaller ones. I'm sure it mentioned that someplace but I didn't see it. Was ready to call and yell at someone but kudos to my wife for finding them and saving the day.

This is a sturdy and entertaining toy. My Spider-Man loving son spends lots of time playing here. It is light enough it can be moved (by two people) to mow the lawn underneath. It is a time commitment to put together and maintain by tightening the screws on a regular basis.

Great, inexpensive dome. Good for littles to mid bigs. Paid a small fortune for delivery to Hawaii, but they did actually deliver here. Despite promises on other sites, and indeed 'dome climbers.com' holding our money for 8 weeks prior to refunding, and then with no communication as to an apology, Walmart came through. Thank you Walmart!!

The instructions with this are almost a complete waste of time. It took four of us to put this thing together because of all the holding stuff up and taking stuff back apart.... Its a real mess... Make sure you have plenty of help when you start working on this... and my advice, look at the box while putting it together.... make sure when you are putting it together you put the nut on the outside so that when it is together you still have room to add the black screw cover things that the children use to climb.
