[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great parts quality, super detailed assembly instructions, amazing packaging with all parts labeled and no missing parts, all precut/predrilled parts done with precision, and great attention to details in finish/trim pieces. I think the only possible improvement could be the use of a better higher density/stronger cedar as some screw assembly steps are easily stripped out. But overall, excellent product, good price, and very happy customer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this a month ago, and finally got it set up. It looks so great! Took 3 of us 8.5 hours to put together. Power tools are an absolute must in order to make short work of this project. If you don’t have a power drill, invest in one. It made a world of difference. My only complaint is that the not all of the wood pieces were labeled with the right inventory label, so we had to stop and measure to make sure we were using the right pieces, but that wasn’t a big deal. It would have also been nice if all of the different screw sizes and types were divided into separately labeled bags. Some were in bags and others were not, so we had to stop and measure at times when we needed a different length. Overall I’m impressed with how quickly we got the project done.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been looking for a longtime for a quality swing set and this is it! The price was affordable and the quality was much better then the other ones on the market. It was pretty easy to put together and the instructions were clear. My kids are 1 and 7 and love it. Its not too small for my 7 year old. We are so happy we bought this and look forward to using it for years!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for our kids for Christmas (3rd wk of November) and was concerned it might not get here on time given the vague time frame for delivery. Brenda from customer service was so helpful throughout. From helping me with the initial purchase, to providing me with updates along the way, she was always extremely responsive and informative. Delivery was scheduled and came from the freight company a few weeks before Christmas (ahead of the expected timeframe given). I built the swing set with my Dad and while we thought we could do it in 6 hours or so (he's a retired tradesman and I have grown up in a similar environment), it still took us about 12-13 hours all in all. I was surprised by this since I consider both of us very handy, but we lost a lot of time just trying to dig the set into the ground to get it level. This was by far the greatest challenge so if possible I'd recommend leveling the ground first. Even though it took a while it was fairly easy all the way through. I was very very very impressed with the organization of all of the parts and how easily identifiable they were as we went through the steps to build. In fact, I was initially drawn and was willing to pay more for Gorilla since I knew many of the holes were pre-drilled and the reviews for set up/installation were pretty solid. I cannot stress enough how happy I am that I made this decision and did not settle for less. It would not have been worth it to buy a cheaper set that might come without these things. My only two issues were that the telescope came a little damaged to the point where I could not affix/mount it on the bracket that it came with, and there was one (one out of hundreds that is) 6" bolt that came with damaged threads and we couldn't get a nut onto the end of it. I emailed Brenda at customer service and once again, she answered me within 30 mins and had the two parts shipped to me right away. So great. The kids haven't spent much time on the swing set just yet and I have only had it up for less than 5 days, so I can't speak to durability etc., but overall I am very pleased with my experiences with Gorilla so far and I would definitely recommend.

So I built this myself, covid alone style. I’m pretty handy, but the task is daunting at first once you start opening the packages. Anyway, I would suggest reading the intro parts of the directions (which I skipped). There they explain important things like how the bolts may actually look different than in the pictures, where the board labels are.. etc. so after fiddle messing around for at least an hour, I finally found the lumber and hardware for step one. This took me approximately two days to build on my own. By the start of day 2 I had enough assembled that the kids could play around on it while I did the finishing touches like the roof, etc. once I actually organized all boards with the labels facing out on my bench it went much smother. I skipped ahead in the directions and put the slide and rock wall on before other steps so the kids could play with that. They did a great job with the directions and diagrams . Oh and I spend at least 30 minutes looking through my things for a square bit, but then realized they provided one..... like they said in the directions I didn’t read at first. So I would read them. The final bolt was too short to finish the darn thing, but that was my fault. I had to go through the entire set and did find a bolt that was too long that I must have put in accidentally . Swapped em out and it was all good. It’s a big task, but doable if you have the time!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this set for our 2.5 year old daughter and we are so glad that we did! She wants to go outside every morning to swing and climb! This is a quality set that is built to last through the years and grow with my daughter. It looks great and is a great size, it’s not too big or too small, and doesn’t overwhelm the rest of the yard. We are very happy with Gorilla!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has been just a few weeks since we put it together and my kids can't have enough, a lot to do, a lot of fun, swings, dual slides, climbing wall which includes a rope, ladder, telescope, from playing camping to secret clubs, if you build it they will come.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this in May and got it put up finally in July 2020. Our son and niece love it. He's almost 3 and will have plenty of time to grow into it. It's a great addition to our backyard. It took some time to put together because of all the pieces but the instructions are very well written and the lumber and hardware is well identified. We love the purchase!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This play set looks fantastic, has high quality components and was very manageable to assemble by myself. My kids love it and I am even impressed with its ability to bear my weight of 190 lbs. (it is nice to be able to get in there with them).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When the local playgrounds closed due to COVID19, my husband and I decided to buy a play structure for our backyard. I’m so glad we did! It took a while for the two of us to build (about 10 hours that we spread over a few afternoons) but the instructions were very clear and the parts labeled. I’d recommend laying everything out to inventory and organize first. After a while we got into a groove putting it together. One of us did the measuring/drilling while the other set out the boards and hardware needed for the next step. It’s sturdy, attractive, and the kids absolutely love it.
