Besides it taking a few weeks to get it set up we had missing bolts and had to go to the store several times to get bolts and screws that would work for it. Quality of the wood is ok they could do better. Picture looked much bigger then what it actually was. The price could be less for the quality and all the missing bolts.

Good product that looks like its pictures. Two "moderately" skilled guys spent three full days assembling. Only missing one board (a P1) and three screws (for the slide). Everything comes in effectively four boxes (there's actually five, but the slide occupies one box by itself). Hardware is well labeled and sorted in plastic bags, lots of different sizes and shapes, so keep everything you aren't using at the moment in its respective bag. Only real criticism is the fact that all of the boards, and there are a lot of them, come with ink stamps that vary from clear to indistinguishable to no where to be found. The boards are however well documented in the directions as to what you're looking for so though frustrating you can work around the poor stamping when it occurs. Be sure you level the base right from the beginning and use a level then and thereafter! Grandkids love it, so all the trials and tribulations of building were ultimately worth it, enjoy!

We just purchased this playground for our kids. I felt it was way too expensive to have the company build it for us, so my husband and I built it together. I would give it a 5 star, but the way it was packaged made me give it a 3 star. It would be a whole lot easier if the pieces were packaged by the steps. Instead of having a packaging list and having to dig through all 4 boxes trying to find each piece, it's way too time consuming. Took us 4 days to complete. But once it was built I felt it was well worth the money, very nice and our kids truly enjoy it.

Installed 2 months ago at our mountain cabin. Our grandkids love it. The woodsy look blends into the woods perfectly. Looks like it belongs. Several stations so many kids can play at once. We also rent the property and our clients enjoy this feature for their kids.

This swingset is as nice as it looks in the picture. It took 5 adults 4 /4 hour nights after work to put it together. My 2 year old granddaughter loves it! Separate all the parts and read the manual first My daughter, sister and myself put all the components together , the 2 guys built it and didn't have any problem

I purchased this swing set a month ago an started putting it together this past week. I've discovered while following all the steps step by step that I've had to drill holes where there were supposed to be holes at.Its frustrating to keep switching from a drill bit to a Phillips head due to them not drilling the holes as they were supposed. The wood is very soft so it splits easily while drilling if you don't drill just right. They do not give you any extra screws/ bolts an I've had some strip out, I feel if you paying this huge amount for a swing seat that they should give you some spares. The swing set is massive, which is what we expected but the quality of the wood is not the best by far for this price at all.

We've had this playset for a year now. It was pretty labor intensive to put together but great materials and very sturdy. My four kids range in age from 3-9 and every one of them loves playing on it. It's a great size and can easily accommodate all of them and their friends. One of the best purchases I've ever made and worth every penny.

My father and father in law put together this playset in about 24 hours. Some parts were cracked called and the company shipped new one without a problem. The best advice I could give someone putting together this set is lay out all the pieces, that took up the most time was searching for the parts. My son will be two in June and he loves this playset. He climbs the back ladder without any help.

My 3 kids love the set. This set had exactly what we were looking for- 3 swings, slide, rock wall. The monkey bars are good as well because they're not quite big enough to master them so it will give them some growing room. We looked at every kind of playscape you can imagine and took months to figure out which one we wanted (after we got over sticker shock). The price for what you get is pretty good. The free shipping was great. We used the install company listed on the sam's club website (NEW) and they were a joke. I recommend hiring someone else to do the install. If you have no idea how to put these together it will take you a few days. It's not a one day project. Our "professional" took 5 days. I only gave it 3 stars for quality because after only a month the wood began to peel. Yes, I should have stained it right away but I didn't have time the first month it went up.

We recently re did our back yard and made it somewhat revolve around this playset. Once it was in stock again we received it with in 5 days of ordering it. Like many of the other reviews you must separate all components and take inventory. We were missing only two pcs that are on the way form the mfg. no hassles no problems. The hardest part was trying to complete it with our son in and out of the house all day. The total time to complete it was around 20 hours. This amount of time was spread over three days. Me and my wife completed all the work with the exception of our son helping screw all the floor boards down. You know its monkey see monkey do with boys.. Any ways not a bad product at all. The instructions for the most part are good with several exceptions to lack of explanation on certain steps. Other then that we are very happy with our purchase. We have only one thing to complete and that is the surrounding floor is going to be artificial grass with 2" padding below.
