This is an excellent product and well-worth the money. I bought it for my grandson who totally enjoys it. My son and I assembled it over 3 weekends. We both have significant woodworking experience and really enjoyed the project. We did not encounter any problems as mentioned in a few other reviews. No parts were missing and all were clearly identified, no boards were cracked or otherwise damaged, one floor assembly had minor warping but was easily fixed, and holes were accurately pre-drilled. Assembly is a major project and probably should not be attempted without some woodworking experience. The instructions are clear but must be followed carefully. We installed 2 boards incorrectly but it was our fault not the instructions. Be careful not to over-tighten screws to avoid wood splitting. The end product is sturdy and an attractive yard set. We will apply a wood sealant as directed in the instructions and expect the playset to last for many years. Most importantly, the kids love it!

My wife and I looked around for a nice, affordable and reliable swing set for our two boys. We went to ALOT of different outdoor stores and websites and the majority of the larger swing sets were not in our price range and for the most part, in good reason, because they were honestly built better then this set. If you are looking for 2x4, 2x6 and 4x4 wood then you will not find it with this product, lets be honest, its a huge swing set for a great price bought exclusively from Sam's(a large box store), there's a reason behind that. With all of that being said, for the price that we paid, I am extremely pleased with how it turned out. It took my father, my 2 year old son and myself around 22 hours to assemble the swing set and I would rate my father and I as experts at building and erecting but only moderately good at following directions. Follow the directions very closely and pay attention to every single detail of every single board you assemble. 95% of the pilot holes were pre drilled so it is imperative that you make sure the pilot holes are in the right place. Based on reading reviews before I started building, I decided to separate out all of the wood from the boxes once we received the shipment. That turned out to be completely important because it saved us an amazing amount of time. My boys are extremely happy and most important of all, my wife is happy. Happy Wife Happy Life right?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This item was purchase 6 months ago. Other than taking a little bit of time to assemble, instruction were really clear and easy to follow steps. Perfect for the kids to spends hours outdoors in fresh air.

Wanted something to help get the kids out of the house more when the weather was nice. We live so far away from the closest park, so I wanted something close to home, so we got this play set. A neighbor and I put it together in a few afternoons and we had no problems. Once up, it looks really good and the kids really love it!

I have only had the swing set put together for a week at this point, but the kids love it so far! Customer service was great, the guys that came to install it worked very hard, and had it put together in about 5 1/2 hours. The kids have been playing on it non-stop, it's also very pretty! I thought it was going to be too bulky, but it's actually the perfect size as well. A great buy!!! Hoping it stands the test of time!

Not sure why everyone loves this set. Overall, the set provides enough activities for my children to play with. However, the quality is extremely poor. The wood is very soft and split in many spots while putting it together. It is not cedar, but cedar stain. Part of the wood grain are rising and peeling. This set has been together for 2 months. I called customer service and their response was that, I must be having extreme weather and in order to maintain the warranty, I must seal the set. Ok, but it's only been up 2 months and in NY we have not had extreme weather, it's been unseasonable cool. Our intention was to seal it at the end of summer, because I did not want the kids playing on the set when the sealer smell was on it. Poor customer service and a poor set. Wish I'd spent the additional $300 bucks and bought the gorilla set.

The stack of very large boxes that sat in my driveway was quite daunting. However, even though the Bilt app was at my disposal, I found putting the Skyfort II together was less difficult than expected using just the assembly instruction manual. It took me, mainly by myself (I enlisted muscle when necessary) about 10 days to assemble. I had to work in short intervals because I'm susceptible to heat stroke. I say this only to show how this project can be completed with little help and at your own pace. I recommend you enlist as much help as you can, just make sure your help can follow directions. One part assembled incorrectly can make a huge difference. Trust me. Everything from delivery to completion went smoothly. Delivered when expected, no damaged/missing parts, easy-to-follow instructions - all made my experience fun. I'll update to attest for its durability. Enjoy!

This playset is so much fun! All four of my kids love it (ages 1-6) and can play on it at the same time. It took several days to put together, but the instructions were wonderful. Occasionally it would have the wrong length of screw/bolt listed, but common sense helped us sort that out. It is very helpful to have 3 people working on assembly (one to gather the parts for the next step), 2 people is a must! We love it!

My kids absolutely love this play set! It was easy to assemble, just time consuming. It took about 20 hours, which is what the instructions estimated. We priced many different sets and this one seemed the nicest for the money. Now the we have it, I know we made the right choice!

We have 3 kids, they were 2, 5 and 6 when we purchased this set. We did a good amount of research before choosing this one based on style, features, and price. The initial delivery they forgot the slide, but that seemed to be a product of the delivery people. It took about a week to have it delivered, but it worked out since it was one of the last pieces we needed and it look us longer than that to get to that step. It wasn't too hard for my husband to assemble with a little help. The kids love the variety and it fits great in our backyard. Very happy with this purchase!!
