[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a year ago and my children still haven’t gotten bored of it!! It’s great for my almost 2 year old (with supervision of course) my 4 and 5 year old and the love it! The swings are replaceable and I was able to switch the big swing out for my toddler swing!

I purchased this a year and a half ago. We went for the Cedar one as it was supposed to last longer. At first we absolutely loved it and even recommended a family friend purchase it. Fast forward...A little more than a year later ours is rotting. Super frustrating that we paid extra for the cedar one from the company and it is already rotting. At this point I'm not sure it will be stable for my kids next summer, which puts the cost at 1000 per year. I would not buy again for the price. Not worth it AT ALL. We were expecting a lot longer life than this...

By far the best gift I have ever purchased for my grandkids. A little intimidating arriving by freight and the thought of assembly; however, with an awesome Uncle Jake and Gramps the assembly went smoothly. Highly recommend organizing all the pieces and hardware PRIOR to starting the assembly and FOLLOW the instruction booklet! Assembly did take a few days; but the grandkids remained excited during the process. Great purchase!

When we decided that we wanted to purchase a playground for our children we didn't know where to begin. When we did finally decide to purchase went with the Skyfort II, our only concern was when the carrier left one of our 5 cases containing our slide somewhere and we didn't get our slide for 4 weeks after the other 4 cases. trying to deal with The retailer we got it from was a nightmare but Backyeard Discovery stepped in and made it happen, Thank you very much. This is an amazing playground thank you Backyard Discovery for building an amazing product.

This is a really good product that comes in four large boxes full of numbered stamped boards and hardware. It over 4 hours to unpack and sort and arrange all of the pieces and I am estimating about 25 - 30 hours to follow the very clear directions to assemble it. The boards are fairly thin but quite adequate for a play structure. The hardware (bolts, nuts, screws) is very robust and of good quality. It came with all the correct bits for the bolts. I enjoyed putting this together and am impressed with its design and quality of its components. The grandkids loved it!

The contents came in four boxes and were a little confusing when first opening the box. The first few hours were very time consuming while searching through all of the boxes. It would have been much easier if the boxes contained phases, rather than pieces in all boxes. Once I was into the project for a bit, the flow was better. The directions at times were a bit confusing, but overall they were fine. The quality is great for the price, especially when comparing to other products. This is an American Made product with imported materials.

We did a lot of research before purchasing this set, and we are very happy with it. We have 5 kids ages 2-9 and our oldest is about 5ft tall. We wanted something that kids of all ages could use that wouldn’t be too flimsy for lots of kids, and that our oldest could still use. This thing is sturdy! We replaced the middle bar thing with another swing. we often have 3 kids swinging on this at one time, and the set doesn’t move at all. My husband is 6’2” and can stand upright in the upstairs of the main tower. At the same time, I don’t feel like it is unsafe for our 2 year old. It did take quite some time to put together, but the sheer amount of bolts on this thing really gives me peace of mind.

I research a great deal before I purchase anything significant. This Skyfort placeset is the best product you can buy for the money. The quality of the wood and building materials, design and complexity of the playset cannot be had elsewhere for less. A similar rainbow playset would be $3000-5000 depending on the wood you choose. I ordered the playset online, it was delivered quickly and placed where I had designated. After some deliberation I decided to have it professionally installed by Sams Club/NEW. I am very grateful I chose that route. It took 2 professionals which have built this thing over 20 times, over 12 hours. I cannot speak to how long it would take to build it yourself, but it would be much longer than this. There is no right or wrong answer, just be aware there are costs either way you go, money or time. It was $500 to install, which is very fair in my opinion. I also decided to build a bordered in play area for the set. I used landscape timbers and fabric and 14 cubic yards of mulch. It was an extra expense, but was well worth it. Lastly you will need to Stain/Seal the wood of this set "every year" according to the manual. They recommend a Thompsons Water Seal. Unless you like to redo things over and over every year I would buy a better product. I decided after a great amount of research to use Flood TWF Semi-Transparent Stain. This will likely last 3 years before it has to be sanded and redone instead of every year for a Thompsons product. My kids love it and I feel great about getting them something so fun to play with.

This play set is so great! It's huge, the fort is tall enough for an adult to stand up in, and the picnic table underneath is a great feature. Our 4 year old loves this so much. It did take quite a while to put together, including the time it took to unpack all of the boxes and organize the pieces. But no parts were missing, and we had a lot of hardware left over, despite some of the screws and bolts being defective. It took my husband and father in law, both very competent, 2 full days and another afternoon to complete.

Would have gave it 5 stars but there was a couple pieces missing and had to purchase more screws from local hardware store. Not a big deal. Awesome play set. Kids love it. Took the wife and I a week to put it all together. Was fun quality time together.
