I was really impressed from the time I purchased online at Sam's to completion. Our grandchildren will love this! The ABF Freight driver was very helpful in unloading the 4 large heavy boxes by forklift onto my 18' trailer hooked up to my truck so I could parked it in my backyard. We opted to hire a local retired carpenter friend to put this swing set together instead of paying someone we did not know $500. With my help it took us 2 full days and I paid my friend the $500. I wanted to make sure every step was followed correctly, and I must say that whoever engineered the design, layout, safety and looks did a fantastic job. The quality is superb and the enjoyment for our 'grands' will be priceless.

I bought this a month ago, read directions, unpacked and had it completely assembled by myself in 12.5 hours total. Main thing to keep in mind is to keep all your fasteners in the package they come in so you can locate pcs. as they are called out per page/assembly. Extremely well spelled out directions if you follow them exactly.....key word... "exactly"....you follow the directions and have an incling of construction/common sense building wise you can succeed in assembling this playground in one weekend.

Bought this about 3 weeks ago but just got around to building it. Instruction need more information about where the extra holes on each board should be facing. Had to run to Lowe's and buy more 2 1/4" screws to attach the roof. Called for 14 screws and we only had 4. The t nuts often stripped out. My wife and I built it and it took up 27.5 hours.

We ordered this and had the assembly team put it together for us. They had it up in 6 hours. I could have never put it together myself!! I’d highly recommend going over the set before your assembly team leaves though. My son absolutely loves this set. He wakes up and runs to the window to make sure it is still there. I love how many options there are between the different swings, the rock wall, slide and monkey bars. I still have to get sand but really wish it came with a cover to keep animals out. The play house part is much larger than I expected. I can stand up in it. We added a little bin up there of books and small toys. Also going to add a chalkboard to one wall. I hope this set lasts us a long time!

We purchased this with assembly and it was all done in about 2-3 weeks. Thank goodness we paid the extra for assemby; definitely worth it. Reviews said it took an average of 40 hours to do themselves and when we saw pics of the hundreds of pieces laid out, we said heck no. With an actual assembly team, it still took almost 14 hours. The fort on top and picnic area on bottom are appealing as well as the monkey bars, which are harder to find these days. There were some minor dings and scratches. The wood is pretty but not as strong or resistant as I had imagined. Still, I would recommend this to everyone searching for an affordable higher-end playset.

Webpage is very friendly and easy to use; shipping was delayed due to COVID but the delivery was very good, the crew came and left the boxes out of our garage. Instructions were fairly easy to follow, some can be actually improved with some preparation prior to assemblying some parts (such as "tighten AB screws and leave them for step x..."). Some parts came with some splinters we had to take care and there were some wood panels that tend to break while thightening the screws; some nuts were defective and couple of joints slipped so we ran out of a particular screw and nut. Ordered those thorugh the website chat and staff was super friendly, replacement came promptly in couple of days. I would buy another product. We really like the features included in this set, very complete and fair against the price, and we really like the customer attention.

The swing set came in 4 well packaged boxes. The instructions were very easy to follow. Took 7 days to install it myself with no assistance. I strongly recommend you seal the cedar as soon as you complete the installation. The kids love this one. About to purchase their pergola for the adults to enjoy.

This is actually the first review I've ever taken the time to give, but I am doing so because of the great experience we have had. We built a large two-tiered retaining wall on a steep slope so that we would be able to put this in our backyard. The construction on that got delayed because of weather, but I was able to talk to the delivery company of the play set (because it is a scheduled delivery) and they conveniently held on to it for a week until I was ready for it to be delivered. I also paid to have it assembled and was VERY impressed by the company that did this (reached out to me to work with my schedule since someone has to be home and were very accommodating when I had to reschedule the installation). The two guys took less than 6 hours to put it up and it would have taken me two weeks. Our son absolutely loves this and we have received many compliments from others in the neighborhood since it has been up. I would definitely recommend this play set.

The kids cant get enough. Its no public playground as far as strength, so dont sit a grownup at the bench unless you want to be reminded you weigh more than 150lb. Im 188 and it creeks at me. Lol but it is sturdy and i can climb into the tower and stand no problem. Its perfect for growing littles!

Awesome playground / swingset. Directions could add a tad more detail. You will need more time to assemble, unless you have some experience assembling a set like this. Pay attention to the pilot holes pre drilled as you go. Overall a really nice set.
