Great fun!!!!!

We bought this for my grandkids and they love it!!! They call it their tree house. They spend hours swinging and sliding. We also bought the kids a lifetime picnic table and they eat on it everyday!!! We love lifetime products they are strong and last without warping. We will always buy lifetime products!!!

Up, up, and away! Luckily no kids hurt!

We love this playset but do not love how easily it blew across our yard, taking out trees in the process, and narrowly missing our house. It ended in a heap of twisted metal and broken plastic. The wind was minimal at the time and the sandbox immediately adjacent to the playset did not even have the lid blown off. I watched in horror as the whole thing unfolded; a construction worker next door saw it happen too and came running to make sure everyone was okay. Luckily no kids were on the playset at the time! I do not know if I can, in good conscience, recommend a playset that has the potential to do this. The playset weighs a lot, so the design must be faulty in order to create an uplift that can carry something so big.

We love everything about it! The shape of the slide is so well designed.

We bought this a while ago and the children can't get enough of it!! We had to add extra runners in the ladder so as the 2 year old could also use it. The children love climbing up the top to watch the kangaroos grazing in the reserve behind us. The only issue we had is the slide holding heat ..... we live in Queensland Australia. ..... but a shade sail has rectified that.

Rust within 2 weeks

We are extremely disappointed that our playlet is already rusting. Water seeps in between the areas where metal is attached to metal and is impossible to dry out. This is after we covered all metal pieces with rust prevention spray during assembly. We chose this playset because it was supposed to be less maintenance than wood but that was a huge mistake. Of course the Lifetime website does not allow you to add photos or else I could show you the numerous spots and joints this thing is already rusting. I can only hope someone from Lifetime will reach out ASAP and try to make this right.

We’re sorry to hear that your playset is rusting.

If you purchased an earlier version and are experiencing rust issues, we want to help. Please reach out to our Customer Service team so we can work with you to make this right.

It looks great, but a nightmare to assemble

First of all the set comes in a giant wooden crate, we now need to dispose of. Most of the holes don’t align, so a step that should take 5 minutes can take over an hour. Then there is a step where you need o drill through metal. I don’t have a drill strong enough to do that. We’re Pretty much over building this thing and my poor kids are heartbroken. I don’t know if we got faulty parts or what, but this does not take 8 hours to build. We’ve spent our entire weekend on this and we haven’t even gotten the roof on the tower on. Nightmare!

A park in our backyard!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't know who was more excited about the Adventure Tower Deluxe Playset? Me or my 6 year old? It is the center of activity and adventure. Kids come over and say "Wow! You have a park in your yard?" It provides activity, imagination, and friendship. I absolutely love this set. High quality, sturdy and safe. I highly recommend the professional install. Two hours and ....BAM! It's done.

My kids and me love this!!!

We bought this Play set this past spring. I was looking for a playset that would not give my kids slivers and would have as little maintenance as possible. And yet is great quality. This is perfect! We love it! It doesn't get hot in the sun and burn my kids. And the warranty is awesome too.

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!

Outstanding! With a few recommendations -

Overall great experience thus far; very well made, came a little scratched up on some of the large plastic parts (shipping damage) but fully functional. Seems very solid, kids love it, and I'm hopeful it will last many years in the hot/humid NC climate! Few thoughts / recommendations: - Would be handy if the instructions included links or recommendations for installation on a non-level yard. Mine had about a 13" drop at an angle over the distance from tower to end of monkey bars. - please include measurements of actual structure in the instructions - it includes recommended boundary, but not the structure. Would be useful for folks like me who need to lay out the exact location of the tower & monkey bar poles in order to dig them in for a not-level surface. - Instructions were otherwise excellent with one exception: would be helpful to explicitly identify the swing bar attachment pole (the one with the warning label) on the instruction graphics. This gives a good visual anchor point when attaching the tower's cross-bracing and various rock wall/etc. panels. I found myself having to remove and re-install some components in other locations because it wasn't initially clear what side of the tower they went on. Other notes: - One reasonably fit/strong person can assemble 95% of this by their lonesome... I needed my wife's help getting the swing bar into place and holding components for the tower roof, but that's about it. - I put a ~8in deep sandpit in the middle of the tower, since I had to dig it in anyways. Seems to work great!

Love this playground!

I'm so glad we went with this playset! My older and younger kids have a blast on it. I'm also glad I went with the model that has the trapeze bar and monkey bars! It's a hit! It also is great quality, and low maintenance which is what every busy family needs. I would totally recommend this playset
