Purchased this to replace a very old swingset for our grandkids. The assembly was long and tedious but the instructions were spot on. The online app was very helpful at times to assist with some clarity. Had an issue with a part and it was shipped to me right away. It was helpful to lay out the parts by number so that they were easy to find. I bought the anchors and rubber pieces to hold playground in place and keep the wood off the ground - I highly recommend doing this.

This is a really nice build. It does take some time and can be done by one person. So far I have spent about 8 hours on it, and I'm towards the end. I am thinking about adding a mini pergola to the top of the crows nest. The attached photo is showing it almost completed! There is a light at the end of the tunnel. I do have a few tips: 1 - Read the instructions! 2 - As you pull everything out, organize by letter, and then use those letters to organize each by number. Trust me, you'll thank me for all that OCD work. 3 - Take all hardware and lay it out separately on a large table. This will save TONS of time on your end when you have to look for 3-5 different bolt lengths that have the washer/t-nut. 4 - Not all pieces with the same letter and numbers are in the same box. There are four boxes, and yes, the slide is in sections inside the box. 5 - If it's cold outside, head indoors with your slide pieces. This will make the slide surface easier to bow into the slots. 6 - Go slow with the screws. The bolts and lag bolt are no biggie, but the screw you'll want to put in slowly, especially when you fastening into a thin width. 7 - Pay attention to the piece orientation. I know it can be hard because of the darkened print pieces currently on each step, but you'll notice holes that need to be in the right spot, or else you end up drilling holes mid process. Easy to do, but could have saved time on my end! 8 - When applying the T-Nuts into the wood, use a mallet and pop it in. This will make life lots easier! 9 - Be patient. This build is worth the patience for the price tag! 10 - Don't hesitate to reach out to customer service. I had 6 pieces that I needed replaced (not their fault - shipping's fault) and they were hands down amazing. It was free (except I wanted it fast, so I paid $15 to ship all my replacements in two days). GOOD LUCK!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a great playset and from a company with great and friendly customer service. I’m so glad to took the plunge and got the one we did! We are so close to done and my kids can’t stop talking about having their friends over to play on it. Definitely requires lots of organization, work, and time. There are a few instruction pages with misprints in the info, but it’s pretty easy to figure out.

Purchased the skyfort-ii back in March. Had a company do the install because I dont have the patience for this type of assembly. Only con I have about this set is that the screws that come with it are horrible! One on the monkey bars was snapped off and luckily it was me who tried it out cause a kid probably would have gotten hurt falling that far. Bought extra cedar boards for the sandbox area and extended the flooring.

This is the best investment ever and I tell every parent out there, if you don’t have one, you are missing out. We built this ourselves, it took us 3 days about 6 to 8 hours each, taking out time and pacing ourselves to do it perfect so it was safe for the kids. You could pay someone, but I tell you, they won’t do as good of a job, they’ll have a bunch of screws left in the end. With the app, it’s extremely easy to build, just takes some time to make sure everything is where it belongs. Quality is good, all the parts were there. The value for this playground is amazing, we shopped around and there is nothing this nice at this price. We are very happy with our purchase.

Excellent quality once built, directions could be written a little better, and if you are slightly off level, you may need to redrill and move some hardware to get it right. Overall, extremely satisfied with final product and my daughter and neighbor kids love it. I had to have customer service send me a few extra pieces of wood that arrived damaged. They shipped quick, no questions asked. I would recommend their products to anyone. It took me about 30 hours over 4 days. you will need a second set of hands for some of it and ladders to assemble.

We were so glad to get the play structure. Delivery was wonderful they unloaded it and left it in our garage at my request since I was home. Each box had an inventory list and was very easy to unload and check off the inventory. Each piece was labeled nicely and the instructions were very well written. You could also follow along on your cell phone so we followed along in the instructions book as well as followed along on the online video it made putting the product together very clear! It took 2-4 of us about 2 days to assemble. Customer service was also outstanding!

We are really happy with how everything worked out. Everything fit well, instructions were clear and it looks great. Our kids love the fort part and think it's the greatest (5 & 1.5). Took us about 14 hours for two people to put together. The harware organization was a little frustrating, we used some cheap plastic part dividers that made it so much easier.

With 4 grandsons ages less than a year through 6, I was looking for something that would last for many years to come and that would allow bigger kids as well as younger kids to have fun on it. Due to Covid, all playgrounds in our area had been closed for months so that accelerated my buying - what normally would have been a Christmas present. We purchased the set-only, not with assembly included. My son-in-law and a team of his friends spent a Saturday putting it together and, although took a while, everything was there and they were able to assemble with no problem that I am aware of. It IS VERY HEAVY AND HAS A LOT OF PIECES, as others have mentioned so having more than one or two work together is best. We all think this set is even nicer, in person, than we expected - and the 3 of 4 grands that are old enough to play on it really love it! I highly recommend this set!

We purchased the skyfort ii for our son. There are so many activities that he can use now and grow into in the future. The items were well packaged and it took by husband 11 hours to put it together (he’s a contractor). He raves about how detailed and well organized the instructions were. We would absolutely recommend this swingset to anyone look for outdoor play for their kids.
