The instructions were quite accurate. Kit was complete with only one little bracket missing but we were able to pick that up at a local hardware store. As with any product, there are reasons to wonder what the engineers were thinking - the stove bolt/barrel nut/L - bracket combination is nearly impossible! (Thank goodness for Vise Grip pliers!!) Also, many of the holes were pre-drilled but there were lots that weren't for whatever reason. Overall, It's a quality, sturdy playset that should last a while. I should add that it's even nicer looking than what you see in the photos!

This is a great product. It IS a lot of work to build...but not as bad as some say. Mostly myself, with my dad twice for about 6 hours total, and me alone about 18...so 24ish (with kids bugging me!). LAY OUT ALL BOARDS, categorize, and inventory all things first. SAVES you time...only takes about 2 hours (i used garage floor). You will have TONS of extra hardward, seems they pack 1 way for all their sets. Most boards are great, some are crooked/cracked, and they do splinter...leading to my 4* quality review...but its fairly minimal, and looks great, sturdy, fun, and kids love it. TIPS: Have a drill/screwgun with power or multiple power packs. You need 3/8 and 3/16 drill bits, 1/2 in hex heads and phillips screwdriver all the time! Dont overtighten hex bolts. Some boards may need holes moved/cut if you're not totally square or if alignment off. Window switch could be done, I didnt' b/c I forgot! MAKE SURE right side swing beam is level or you won't get that bolt in! READ AND RE-READ instructions...they're ok, but do NOT clearly spell out which way to turn boards or what side is up/down left/right. You can easily install a piece wrong and find out too late! LOOK AHEAD to see where other holes go and line-up... COOL set though...worth the $$ and effort.

We bought this set last year and truly we could barely find anything in stock because of Covid. I knew it was gonna take us several days to put it together, and it did. But we planned for it and everything fit perfectly, we weren’t missing any parts, & the final product turned out great. Our kids love this set, play on it all the time, and I’m hoping it will last until they’re too big for it! Right now our kids are seven and eight years old and it’s perfect for their size.

This set was a great choice for my active boys! The glider is great for those who can't swing properly yet but I would suggest ordering the bucket seat for those under 4. My husband who is a skilled craftsman, put this together in about 60 hours with 6 hours of help from another neighbor. The key to this is defintely organization. You need to have everything laid out and make sure you read the instructions carefully. Most people would need 2 fairly skilled people to do this over the course of 2-3 weekends! All in all, we are thrilled to have this quality set in our yard!!

My boys (and their cousins and our friends kids) love this play set. We have had it completed about a week and they boys get mad when I tell them they have to eat breakfast before going out to play. We were missing part of the glider and when I called I was told it would take 8-10 business days, which felt excessive to me. Also, it takes a LOT to put this together. I had two friends volunteer to put this together and it took much longer than any of us anticipated, but it does look great and is well constructed.

I bought this set last December as a Christmas present for my two boy, and it's been wonderful. Building it when the snow is starting to fall is a very bad idea, as you want to take your time and pay close attention to the instructions (near LEGO quality). My only issues have been with broken screws since it's seen the summer sun. Higher quality screws would significantly increase the cost, so I'm not bothered replacing the few the snapped.

We purchased this Play set about a month ago. Delivery and packaging were great. Nothing was damaged in shipping. Laid out all the parts like the other reviews suggest and that definitely helps. We are only about halfway through with putting it together but so far so good. Will update when it is finished.

We just finished up assembly in full today but kids have been using most of it for the last two days and wow has it attracted a lot of kids in the neighborhood. This playset stands out amongst the rest with the large treehouse like base and all the features it comes with in the rock wall, monkey bars, slide, and swings. I’m so glad we made this purchase and I know others are too. Highly recommended!

We had it in the garage awhile before we built it. It went together fairly easily. We We did a lot of prep work in water sealing each board and sorting parts which allows us to do most of the build in one 9 hour day with 4 people. It isn't quite finished in this picture but if you look closely, you can see that even the cat likes the hideaway.

we bought this for our 3 year old daughter. And she loves it. It was challenging for mom and dad to put together but within 3 days it was done! The excitement our daughter had made it worth the struggles to put together. We had to use the app and the direction manual to put it together, neither worked by itself. It seems to be a very sturdy playhouse swing set. Children and adults have been able to swing on it with no problems.
