Good decisión to buy it.

We are very happy with the purchase, very good quality, good size for my patio. My grandchildren are happy with the playground and we are happy for them. We made a good decision when buying this style.

Breaks in a year

We bought this last March 2020 and now in April 2021 half of the screws have broken, boards are falling off and are loose. I now have to work on getting broken screws out and replace them. Pay more for a better swing set.

Excellent Customer Service

I love the colors of it and will be staining it to ensure the maximum lifespan. I had one small problem and Sams had excellent customer service. Thank you so much Sams. I will be making more big purchases like this in the future from ya'll.

Not hard and worth the money

I decided to put this together myself. It says 20 hours, but it only took me and my fiance 8 hours. Just separate the parts by letters and put your bolts in order is how we got through it so quickly. My kids absolutely love it.

Almost Perfect...

Quality of materials was very good. Assembly directions were very good with the exception of the page on rock wall assembly. Not all necessary hardware was listed for that item. Liked that it was MADE IN AMERICA.

Highly Recommended

After spending months looking at play sets, someone encouraged me to look at Sam's website. I not only purchased an amazing, sturdy play set, delivery and installation was take care of,

Took a while to build. Strained a marriage. Kiddo absolutely loves it. Worth it.

Took a long time to stain and assemble. Directions are fairly easy to follow. Paper instructions and app instructions don't always match up 100% of the time. Spouse used the paper instructions while I used the app. Advantage of paper instructions is being able to see the entire assembly all at once. You only see one small step at a time on the app but you get really detailed 360 degree simulations of each and every step. Any issues I had were almost entirely user error. Overall I enjoyed the assembly. Staining sucks. Staging parts by steps and clear communication between the people assembling is critical to efficient assembly. 20 hours build time is fairly accurate. Invest in an impact driver and impact rated bits.

Great piece except the slide

I bought this a few months ago. My kids really love it but im really unhappy with the slide. On of the main features and no matter how much we try to keep the plastic in place it keeps popping out at the bottom. Really upset since that's the favorite part and we paid quite a bit and we cant even use the slide šŸ˜•

Great Set. Beware of Assembly Delays

My grandchildren love this set. If you pay for assembly like I did, don’t expect it to be assembled right away. Assembly is contracted out to another company. I live in Iowa where there is a shortage, apparently, of assemblers. Thus, one guy did it on his schedule that included doing other jobs in-between mine, so he didn’t come every day until completed. However, it all worked out. Assembly is a HUGE job. There is one board on the steps that has a crack from the screw. I have yet to contact the company for replacement, but I’m guessing it won’t be a hassle.

Kids love it!

Overall we love our swing set! We had it installed by our handyman. It took 2 men about 2 whole days to put together Some of the wood split or cracked which needs to be sanded down, but I’m not sure if that’s a quality issue or an install issue. That being said, the swing set is extremely sturdy! We put a baby swing in the middle instead of the trapeze bar. We have had 3 kids (7,4,2) swinging at once and the swing set doesn’t move at all. Our cautious 2 year old is still nervous to climb the stairs but the stairs have a hand rail on both sides to make it easy to climb. The slide is wicked fast and a little anxiety producing, but it doesn’t seem to bother the kids at all. The monkey bars provide a good challenge and are a feature our kids will grow into. We are pleased so far and hope it last for many more years.
