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!!

I am happy with the quality of the climber for the price. In terms of outdoor play toys this is a great bargain. My daughter is only 2 and like to climb on it with some help but is probably too young to fully use it but we have had a 5 year old friend come play on it and loves it. The assembly at first seems overwhelming because the instructions are vauge, but once you get going it starts making more sense. I missed that on step one it says in small print at the bottom to repeat this step five times. I would have thought that should have been the first sentance of step one since that is kind of important to know. It took me 3 hours with many distractions during that time to put it together by myself. It is definately possible to put together yourself but it would go faster and smoother with 2 people. I am about 6 feet tall male with average strength and am able to get under the middle of it and lift it above my shoulders to move it 5-10ft out of the way to cut the grass every week. Our yard is not level but it does conform to the uneven ground well during assembly, but a flat location is best. Do not that the brown color pipes do have a muted earth tone that is nice but the dark green pipes do not blend well with my local plant life and it does make it stand out some. I am sure this may not be the case if your lawn is a deep vibrant green. The look of it is not a concern to us and overall everyone is very pleased with it.

We purchased this climber for our grandchildren ages 4&5 for Christmas.They love it.The children are on the petite side so they are working their way to the top! I read a review about building upper body strength, and I feel this is true. Each time they climb ,they get a little faster. Its not too high 5 ft. at top that you have to worry about injury; as grandparents we like that part the best. Great price (walmart) no shipping , saved $$$ just on that .

[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!

just set it up last night and love it so far. install took right at 2 hours with one installer, but using an electric driver rather than the cheap allen wrench saved a lot of time and effort. holds me without any give (240 lbs). our oldest just turned 5 and is on the small side and she can traverse this pretty well. our youngest is about to turn 3 and he cant use it at all and probably will need to wait another year. Quality seems good, I hope the durability is there. I love the product so far!

I bought this when my son was 2 and now he is almost 6. It is sturdy and durable to handle being outside year round and multiple kids playing. We have filled every seat at some points - so that is a total of 7 kids! The adjustable height allows it to be usable at all stages.

My boys, 9,7,3 love this. They climb on it for hours, play cops and robbers. My 3yr old gets in the middle of it and plays with his toys. I have 3 monkeys and this was perfect for our kids. You do need 2 people to start off, but after you get it started one person can finish. I love the earth tones as well.

We could hardly keep the kids off of it to get it together. My son and I built it in about 2 hours. It's not difficult. You just need extra hands to hold the pieces while the other person inserts the bolts. A third person would make it go faster. The only problem was when old Granny over tightened a bolt and broke it off. We were able to get a replacement at the hardware store. It would be nice if an extra came with it, just in case. I was concerned that the 3 year old wouldn't be big enough to reach the bars but she scaled it like a monkey on the first try. Her 5 year old sister had a little trouble because her shoes were slippery and she is not a monkey. Their Daddy mastered it readily and it held the big guy just fine. We love it.

Was a little rough to put together but the steel is powder coated to keep from getting too warm. It is very sturdy and the kiddos can climb, swing, do flips etc. You can move it around on the grass so no wear spots and easy mowing. Put a sprinkler under on a warm day and watch the fun. Sturdy enough for me to be able to play as well. Super purchase!!

After purchasing the earthtone swing set and Adventure Tower Deluxe, we had to get this awesome climbing dome. I mean, come on...it matches! Plus, our kids love it and it gives them one more fun thing to do outside instead of making bigger messes in our house.
