Challenging and fun climber for 4 yr olds

We have a daycare so the height of this climbing dome was safe while at the same time somewhat challenging for the 4 years to climb. The assembly definitely requires two people but the directions were easy to follow. The metal bars appear to have a durable coating of paint on them which I hope won't chip and rust in the future

Great addition to the back yard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids preschool had one of these and my kids loved it. They would play on it for hours so I decided to get one for my back yard. It was a great addition to the backyard and would definitely recommend this to anybody with children.

Very sturdy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this dome 4yrs ago. We now have 6 kids the oldest is 9. Every year it is used by our 4 boys and daughter as well as visiting children. It has had at least 8 kids on it simultaneously. We drag it around the yard when we mow, and it never sits on a perfectly level spot. Do I wish it was? Yes. Do I wish we took better care of it? Yes. But is it doing exactly what it's intended to do despite the abuse? Yes! For us it has not been a waste (at all) of financial resources to have this in our backyard!

Will enjoy later

Bought the dome climber along with the swingset. It was a little bit of a hassle putting together just because of the ackwardness of the shape. It did take an extra two people to help hold the opposite sides as I was working on the other to help hold the bars together to put the bolts on it. It went up very quickly this way too. Other than that, my only complaint is that it is way to big for my 3 yr old to enjoy. She get her legs up on the first bar but that is about it. Also the paint on the bars is very slippery.

Sturdy Product

Bought the Geodome from Amazon with an open box discount. When it showed up I layed out all the parts and noticed it was missing some washers. I called customer support and they shipped me out more than I needed at no extra cost. My kids love this thing. It'll even hold my weight. Very good product.

Can you say FORT?

We have a neighbor with this dome climber and the neighborhood kids absolutely love it! I'm not sure if they spend more time on it or inside it. Although I've never played on it or in it myself, I've been told the canopy drastically reduces the heat of the sun, and creates a nice cool place for the kids to play.

Recalled SO Frustrated

Purchased this through Costco a little over a month ago. Set it up a week ago took a little while approximately 3 hours instructions were not clear about direction to put screws in as diagrams were vague and not very descriptive. My children loved it made my 4 year old son so proud when he could climb to the top and my little girl played house in it. It was prefect for our yard and due to the current situation with COVID-19 and all playground being closed we were so happy they had it to climb on. This evening received an email from Costco explaining that the manufacturer used extensive amount of Barium in the paint which can cause adverse health effects and the product has been RECALLED. We are to take it apart and dispose of the product. We were advised that we will receive a refund for the purchase. But my children have now had everything taken away school playgrounds, friends,family and now their beloved climber talk about an emotional heart break for my 2 and 4 year old kids. I now am scrambling to find something good quality to replace this as my children are going to be heart broken when I take it down, and have to throw it away. If i was told about this recall 2 weeks prior there would not have been an issue the children would not have known about it, and there would not be the emotional trauma that this will cause them. I wish Lifetime had done more prior to selling the product, for example test for the adverse chemicals in their products prior to them being sold. Just disappointed with the whole situation and really left in the dark as i am unable to speak with any sales rep. would not recommend this product obviously. also all other geo climbers are currently out of stock does not help the situation. I am currently bracing myself for a lot of tears and heart break in the coming days.

Great Buy

This dome climber is such a good investment my kids cannot get enough outside time. I took a while to put this together definitely needed the second person. I follows the instructions along with the YouTube video of the Lifetime guy putting it together to make sure I was doing it right. I can see us having this dome for several summers.

Makes a great hut

I meant for my kids to use this as a climbing aparatus but it has a tarp over it most days and makes for a great fort! The boys have lots of fun in their boys only club house. The hand grips are great and also have multiple uses, such as strapping bungee cords across to hold hostages during battles, or hanging "no girls allowed" signs. This turned out to be a great investment both for me (keeps them busy for long stretches of time) and for my kids.

Hours of fun

When our daughter purchased her own home - we surprised our grandchildren with this. They have enjoyed climbing on our geo-dome whenever they come visit. They were very excited to get one of their own. It is easy to put together, and holds up well. We have owned ours for over 5 years. I foresee many years of fun for all our grandchildren. We own the red / blue one and we purchased the Earthtone one for my daughters house.
