Worth the $$$

i bought this playset and it was delivered within a few days!! it is great for the kids. it took about 8 hours to build and that was with 3 people helping so plan on an all day project. the only difficult part was i wish there was an easier way to label all the wood. they use this long number/letters on each board and it takes time fig out if you have the correct piece.

Lots of things to do!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a little over a month ago and it was easy to build and has so many options of things to do for its size, my 3 year old son loves it! Hey was missing two pieces for monkey bars but everything else was there.

Canopy lasted 1 year

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased swingset 2/2022 and the canopy ripped off due to wind in March of 2022. We just passed the year warranty. This is disappointing, I feel like it should have lasted more than one year. Everything else is great. Kids love the playset

I really liked the play

I really liked the play set. _x000D_ I ran into issues when driving the lag bolts. Couple lag bolts caused the wood to crack. The steering wheel lag bolt is too long and it hits the swing arm bolt causing the steering wheel to be loose. I replaced the bolt for a shorter one_x000D_

Solid Investment

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased a month ago and built it myself. Relatively simple to install. The instructions are detailed and helpful. I was missing a few pieces of hardware for the installation but customer service was very helpful and shipped the missing pieces quickly. The swing set is high quality and very sturdy. Lots of play features to keep the kids entertained.

"Grands" love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this playset for our three "grands" after researching and reviewing many. Assembly was much easier than we had anticipated. Helps to lay out and organize all parts and pieces before beginning assembly. Took about 8 hours with 2-3 assembling or supervising.:) Directions were clear and there were no missing parts/hardware. Awesome addition to our yard and pure joy for the "grands"!

Perfect entertainment

We absolutely love this playset. Its not too big so it doesn't overwhelm our space and the kids play on and under it for hours. We have a 2 & a 4 year old. We also stapled landscape cloth at the bottom section under the platform and poured in 5 bags of washed pea gravel for endless truck and cup fun. Installation is absolutely the way to go - it took 2 professionals a few hours to do it and they knew what they were doing. It would have taken me days. Love it!

Very happy with overall experience

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for our kids for Christmas (3rd wk of November) and was concerned it might not get here on time given the vague time frame for delivery. Brenda from customer service was so helpful throughout. From helping me with the initial purchase, to providing me with updates along the way, she was always extremely responsive and informative. Delivery was scheduled and came from the freight company a few weeks before Christmas (ahead of the expected timeframe given). I built the swing set with my Dad and while we thought we could do it in 6 hours or so (he's a retired tradesman and I have grown up in a similar environment), it still took us about 12-13 hours all in all. I was surprised by this since I consider both of us very handy, but we lost a lot of time just trying to dig the set into the ground to get it level. This was by far the greatest challenge so if possible I'd recommend leveling the ground first. Even though it took a while it was fairly easy all the way through. I was very very very impressed with the organization of all of the parts and how easily identifiable they were as we went through the steps to build. In fact, I was initially drawn and was willing to pay more for Gorilla since I knew many of the holes were pre-drilled and the reviews for set up/installation were pretty solid. I cannot stress enough how happy I am that I made this decision and did not settle for less. It would not have been worth it to buy a cheaper set that might come without these things. My only two issues were that the telescope came a little damaged to the point where I could not affix/mount it on the bracket that it came with, and there was one (one out of hundreds that is) 6" bolt that came with damaged threads and we couldn't get a nut onto the end of it. I emailed Brenda at customer service and once again, she answered me within 30 mins and had the two parts shipped to me right away. So great. The kids haven't spent much time on the swing set just yet and I have only had it up for less than 5 days, so I can't speak to durability etc., but overall I am very pleased with my experiences with Gorilla so far and I would definitely recommend.

Bought this for our twin grandkids for their 6th birthday. We cannot believe the quality for the price point that we paid. The trucking company's driver that delivered it went above and beyond and the product arrived with all the parts and no damages,

Nice Playset

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this item a few weeks ago. The shipment was a little delayed but that was expected with everything going on. I was able to get the set together in about 10 hours with 1 persons help. The instructions were awesome which made assembly much easier than I anticipated it would be. I have some playground mulch to put down then some edging to tie it off.
