My grandkids love it!

We love this playset but started rusting after a few months. It is two years old now and rust has taken over. Paying a little extra for stainless hardware would have made this a 5 star review. Unlike most playset, this is big enough for older kids, built sturdy, and super fun. A simple fix could give you a good 10 years out of set.

Our lifetime swingset isn't even 5 years old and it's rusted all over. The ladder tabs completely rusted off, causing the ladder to be unsafe to use. This was a huge disappointment for a brand that considers themselves 'lifetime'. Didn't even get 5 years out of it.

We've had this playset since 2017 and it survived a move to a new house and a wind storm that picked it up and fliped it over our fence into our neighbor's yard. I would suggest buying straps and strapping it down (which we have done now). The only thing I'd like to add is I wish i could find another bar to add onto the end so we can accommodate more kids and types of swings. We didn't anticipate wanting a longer arm in 2017 but now that my kids are older and have friends over it would be nice to have an expansion kit.

We just hit the 5 yr on this play set but we noticed last fall every brace under supporting the top section has completely rusted out. It is now unsafe for the grand kids to play on plus there is constantly pieces of rust falling off making it unsafe for them running around barefoot. I have not been able to get any help from the company, I would like new braces sent to us to replace them.

We are very happy with the play center. The only downfall to the play center is the ladder. Smaller children have a hard time with the ladder at the top step, it has a long reach for kids to grab the handles which they tend to fall through the last step. On the A Frame set the trapeze bar comes with handles and the bar that would be nicer for the kids to reach. You can buy them separate for $50.

We love the playset thus far if we can actually get it put together in this century. The strange bolt and nut combos make assembly take forever as you have to hope they line up inside the post/pole/etc. That alone has made this take a long time. Just different bolts would have made things so much easier. Plus the arched posts did not say how to align then with their top pieces. It said, "this cannot be undone" and yet had not a thing to say how to avoid a problem (where to align holes or anything). We still have to finish putting on the lower rock climbing walls, the slide, and the ladder but ran out of daylight.

Have this playground and the chains on the swings already show rust and the steering wheel already came off. Im sure I can find some hardware for that though. Then yesterday we had a storm come through that trashed my trampoline but it pulled on the playground set enough that my ladder bent out of shape. Good thing the tie down straps were on it that come with the set when you buy it. Now have to find out how to use the warranty to try to get some of this fixed.

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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this playset for a year and it has been great. The quality is better than other playsets we looked at. The only problem I've seen is with the age of my kids, they are 3 and 2. My 3 year old just recently figure out how to climb the ladder and my 2 year old still has trouble once she gets to the top. The transition from the ladder to the top is a little far for small kids so be careful. I am hoping to find a different ladder to put on until my kids and nephews ads a little older.
