Absolutely love this toy. It can be enjoyed by several of the grandchildren when they come to visit at he same time. It is a clever design. The only problem I had (as a grandmother) is putting it together. It took a long time but it was worth it. We love it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the Lifetime swing set(2) and the domed climer so I was looking for another outdoor play activity. This product offered many different activity’s in one product and holds seven kids at one time. Very sturdy.

I bought this for my 5-year old and toddler sons. My older son has always been tentative when climbing on structures at parks. We live in a rural area, and he doesn't get much park time or much climbing practice. This climbing dome has helped him gain confidence and coordination at his own pace, without other kids crowding him, and without him feeling self-conscious about being cautious. He can climb to the top, and if it starts to feel precarious, he just hangs down from his arms and falls 8"-12" safely to the ground, landing on his feet. My toddler likes to duck in and out of the bars and go inside the structure. It has been a fun piece and a nice companion item to their Lifetime swing set. With both products I purchased, I copied assembly tips from the reviewers into a document, and gave it to my handy woman to help with assembly. For the climbing dome, she followed the alternate assembly advice from one of the reviewers, and built the main dome in about 2 hours by herself with my son handing her tools (and me helping her lift one part, just one time). Attaching the black hand holds took about another hour. My play ground equipment was the first she ever assembled, and she said it was fairly easy. So far, this is a nice, solid piece of playground equipment. My oldest son is 4' tall and weighs 58 pounds, so I was worried that the joints would start to loosen with extended play, but so far, so good! Both boys really enjoy it.

The assembly does take a little while. Not difficult but time consuming. I found hand tightening worked best until the entire unit was assembled because it is more forgiving at getting the angles just right. Then I tightened everything down before putting on the hand grabs. There were a few sections I had to read twice but overall Lifetime does a good job differentiating parts and providing images. A slightly deeper 1/2 socket worked well also since the screw is long as you tighten down the bolt. We have the matching swing set also so this was a good addition to the yard.

We ordered this for our son's 3rd birthday. Unfortunately he will have to be a bit taller before he can get up on to it. The good side of that is that he is not going to outgrow it any time soon. It seems very sturdy and our 11-year-old daughter and her friends have climbed all over it. It wasn't too hard to put together but the instructions say it can be assembled by 2 adults; we found it took 2 people to hold the pieces in place while a third person added more pieces. So plan on at least 3 adults working for a couple of hours to get it all together.

We bought this several years ago for use by our grandkids. It has a lot of "mileage" on it by the grandkids. The propeller has spun for several years through many, many wind storms and other weather situations. For the most part, the colors have held up well in the sun.

Buyer beware! This outdoor climbing structure does not last long when used outdoors. Our structure has completely rusted on the bars and joints, I have to throw it away as it is no longer safe for my children to use. Waste of money, will not be purchasing from Lifetime again.

We gave this to our daughters for Christmas last year and did not regret it. It's been a constant source of enjoyment since. It was easy to put together (time consuming, but the instructions are easy to understand) and it still looks brand new after four months of weather and sprinklers. I would highly recommend it to anyone. It's a cheap way to bring more entertainment for your children to your backyard.

We love our new dome climber! Our boys were super impressed with the size and it keeps them entertained and exercising during this quarantine. We love that it can hold so much weight, making it perfect once we can have friends over to visit. My husband assembled it himself fairly easily and only needed my help a couple times to help hold some of the bars up while he screwed them together. We would highly recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As I do not own this, having made a trip to our local Lifetime store by daughter couldn't help but jump for joy at the site of this adorable little airplane teeter-totter. It was probably 102 outside in this wonderful Southern heat but that didn't stop her, the material on the toy wasn't even very hot, that was great considering every slide in town was on fire. She played on this tt for maybe ten minutes before I made her get off (I know I'm a mean mom) she had a lot of fun and still to this day asks if I "told grandma and poppa about that aeroKlopter that grandma can put in her backyard." for her and her cousins. I was actually really impressed by the quality of this product and surprised at how many kids would be able to fit on this with how convenient the size is. I was even able to sit down for a bit so if there were smaller children that needed help while riding in this, you would easily fit. It was a pretty smooth flight even with a toddler pilot. I think this would make anyone the hippest grandparent in town *hint* *hint* I will definitely be informing anyone with a large enough yard about this great product.
