Plenty of Fun!

My grandson recently had the opportunity to play on this playset at our neighborhood church playground. He is four and was thrilled with all of the activities. He especially like, and wanted, the fort. My son plans to purchase a playset for him soon.

We love it

We have owned this swingset for 5 months now. I had done reseach for probably six months making sure this is what we needed. Was worried most about the curved ladder and little kids but kids as young as two can do it. I do stand close by most times to be sure they don't need help. I also love this swingset as I can climb up to the top to be with them and I can also swing with them and they also love that. Well worth it. We opted to have someone put together for us and it only took them half a day.

Huge safety concern

I have a 5, 4 and 2 year old. I would definitely say this play structure is something for older kids. With the two big openings it is just too risky and such a HUGE fall if one of them we’re too get too close to an edge. I got this play structure for my kids to play but I end up stressing out the entire time because I fear them falling

This Play set is recommended for children ages 3-12. However, we hesitate to give exact ages as children come in all sizes. As with any playground equipment, proper precautions should be observed. On-site adult supervision should be provided at all times.

Grandkids love it!

We almost bought the Climb and Slide Playset but decided on the Lifetime Adventure Tower instead because it has more activities. We bought this just in time to assemble it before the cool weather arrived. My wife and I worked together as a team for about six evenings. Our son-in-law helped put the roof on. Halfway through the process we had the part numbers memorized. The instructions were clear and precise. I was pleasantly surprised to see a separate package of spare parts. Yes indeed! The grandkids love it, therefore, so do we! Note: We added the baby swing that's on the end. It does not come with the unit.

LIFETIME needs a paint consultant and a testing lab. I can help.

The set was delivered to my home in Tampa, FL area on April 2, 2021. The photos above were taken on April 12th, 2021. Functionally, it is a great set. My daughter loves it and it pains me to know that it will not last. Rust is starting to present itself following ten (10) Days of exposure to the elements. The set was constructed approximately 8 miles from Tampa Bay so the set did not see any high salinity. The parts affected are DXI (x2) and DZV (x2). These pieces bolt through the tower floor and support the railing on the tower. When the parts were installed, the tabs on the bottom bent slightly. They are made of thing-gauge steel which can be difficult to coat due to the sharp edges. The coating used has very little flexibility casing it to crack as can be seen in the photos. There are also areas where the welds have pinholes which expose the substrate underneath. Many of the parts are made with weep holes. Possibly for draining during the coating process or to allow for draining during install. The concern is that these areas are uncounted and the set may rust from the inside out. Consumers: please be advised of the above issues. Unless this product is to be used indoors or in low-moisture environments you may have issues regarding longevity. Lifetime: Some of the problems can be engineered out. Other problems could be resolved with your choice of coatings manufacturer. I would be happy to provide you with a formal proposal to perform any performance testing from an accredited third party testing lab to assist with improving your products and helping them live up to the brand name "LIFETIME." In the meantime, please send re-designed parts for replacement: So far the list is as follows: DXF x1, DXO x2, and DXI x2. Perhaps have the fab shop weld a slightly more thick base

Neighborhood hit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have had this for a couple years now, our kids love it and so had every kid that's been to the house! Much easier to assemble than wood sets I've done in the past. One thing that I've noticed, is with the slope of the ladder, smaller kids who have climbed the it for the first time, freak out at the top trying to get across the gap from the last rung into the clubhouse. An additional rung at the top would solve that, and I've debated buying one and drilling my own holes to add one. Also wish they sold matching touch up paint for the metal pieces. Still, overall, we love it and highly recommend

Incredible!

I noticed this Adventure Tower in the backyard of a neighbor, we are new Grandparents and I was keeping my eyes open to replace the Fort we had for our children. I immediately knew this was just what we were looking for! With numerous options for multiple children to play at the same time, this is the one we purchased. We are VERY happy with the quality of construction, the sturdy workmanship and we are looking forward to many years of watching our Grandchildren enjoy it! We also installed it ourselves and were pleased with the instructions and ALL the parts were there! When our 2 year old Grandson saw it completed for the the first time his eyes popped and he said, "Oh my!" That says it all!

Hours of fun!

We bought this product with a few hesitations and we were proved wrong! Our first concern was if it was going to be hard to climb up the green metal ladder for our 3yr old son and 2yr old newphew. They both can climb it great and have yet to have a fall! Second I feared they would be bored with it. I was wrong again! I was super surprised just how much they have enjoyed the little car tracks on top the platform. They take their cars out their and play for literally hours. My 6yr old girl loves it and I thought she was the one who would be easily bored with it. I have been super happy with the shade the top provides because we have no trees in our yard and thankfully it keeps them and the platform cool and out of the sun! My only complaint is the slide can get pretty hot in the summer sun! My kids like to use their water toys to water it down and go down in their swimsuits, but again it does get very hot as a caution! All in all we have been very very happy with the quailty and the fun it provides!

I put it together by myself

So far so good. Did a lot of research with different brands and decided on Lifetime because of their reputation and quality. I wanted something that my kids can play on for years to come. Although I liked the look of most wood playground sets, they never seem to last because they're made of cheap wood. Definitely don't regret that decision. I also put the whole thing together by myself. I'm just a DIY'er with a decent amount of tools, not a professional tradesman. Couldn't really ask anyone for help as well due to the pandemic. But I likely woulda tried tackling it myself anyway because I'm an idiot. So, I can prove that this can be put together with only one person, however I don't recommend it unless you are a glutton for punishment. Took about a week, putting in 2-3 hrs a day. The directions are fairly easy to follow, but I definitely screwed up once or twice and had to backtrack a bit. If the legs had better designation or explanation, this could certainly be avoided. I suggest for anyone putting it together to pay close attention once you get to the upper rails portion of the tower. 50/50 shot that you put it together backwards, which of course I did. But I enjoyed building it and my 2 year old daughter loves it already. Still a little big for her but again, I wanted something her and her soon to be sister could enjoy for years to come.
