We love the playset. The crows nest and swings are my sons favorite so far. He’s a little too little for the monkey bars and rock wall by himself just yet. The slide is super fast too. Everything is awesome. When building we were short a few washers and some would was splinting otherwise really awesome set! Plus we put our dog up to cool off he loves it.

This is one big play set. Assembly by your self ??? That would be hard. It will take a couple of days. The kids love it. I just wish some of the lumber was thicker. Over all it's big and simple to put together. Would have given it five stars if the lumber was thicker.

I read many many reviews and researched a lot of play sets before deciding to purchase this one. My husband and his dad put this together and used me as a goofer. I went through each box and set out each corresponding piece before building to make sure we had everything. This helped a lot when needing to find the pieces for the next step. This defiantly takes two people and lots of man hours to build. We did a few hours a night over a week and a half. It really helped them to use me as a goofer as well to get the pieces gathered up for the next step and analyze the directions. This saved them a lot of time so they didn't have to get up and down out of the play set and figure out where what went next. The directions are in 3D on a 2D paper. They are very difficult to understand but we managed to get it all together the right way. All in all our children love it and couldn't be happier with our decision to purchase this one.

We bought this a year ago and have enjoyed having our own playground in our backyard! The kids (4&7) love the lookout and the rock wall. It’s perfect for picnics, playing store, and even bring in pillows for lounging. Very sturdy as well. My husband assembled in less than 2 weeks.

If you follow the "directions", start with a complete inventory, put all the necessary small hardware in a cup before you start each section, pre drill the holes as suggested -- you will not have any trouble at all assembling this unit. Sturdy, well built, well designed. And most importantly, the kids said "awesome"! That's what really matters.

Great App instructions. I put it together by myself and had 0 problems. If your capable and strong then you don't need 2 people but it would help to speed it up. Pay close attention to pre drilled holes or else you'll be redoing steps. My kids love it. Great playset!

Great swingset. A lot of pieces and parts to put together and very time consuming. Make sure to pre drill holes so wood doesn't split and pay attention to the already pre drilled holes on boards as you assemble, the directions don't point this out very well and if you get a board backwards you will have to take it back apart and flip the board the correct way. All and all its a great value and seems like it will last!

Im a welder that works construction and my wifes a waitress. It took me and her 20 hours to put it together. If the boards were labeled good we proboly could have done it in 14. Easy instructions . My wife mainly read the dircections and had the parts ready for me to put together. I had to help her find them sometime. Thats the only issuse i had. Labeled good and she could have picked them up quicker and i wouldn't have had to stop alot. Over all, not bad. Kids love it. I would recomend it. Its worth it.....

Purchased and set up a year ago. Will work well for my 3 year old toddler. I do not see this lasting very long without adding more support or replacing several boards. I wish I spent slightly more money and bought a more heavy duty playset with a couple less features. I currently dread having to tend to an accident due to this sets flimsy materials. None of these approval features, monkey bars, Rock wall, etc are worth the fear I have while my son plays on this set. I have no issue with the company, everything came in good shape. I just wish I had went with higher quality and less flare. I will most likely reinforce several parts of the set with 2x4s. I'll sacrifice looks for piece of mind.

We bought the Skyfort II after scouring through multiple different play sets because we saw so many features that our daughter could grow in to. As a four year old, she loves the swings, the climbing wall, the slide, and the play areas. Now that summer has arrived we look forward to having picnics and having friends over. She added flowers to her windows and we added a teeter totter under the monkey bars until she’s old enough. I feel comfortable as a mom letting her play outside on her own and know that she is getting some much needed free play time. Assembly: We took the advice of others and watched some YouTube videos before starting. We spent one weekend separating out all of the items into step-by-step piles and the hardware into baggies. It was detailed, but it made the assembly process so much easier and didn’t waste my kind volunteer’s time. We assembled it easily over two days with 4 active assemblers. Our daughter was sliding and swinging by Sunday evening! I highly recommend the Skyfort II. We sealed it once last September with a water based protectant and will do so once a year to keep it looking great.
