Pros:"High quality swings","Looks great","Definitely "heavy duty"" Cons:"Difficult to assemble" Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. Received this today, it took me about 4 hours to put it together, it's a real pain to put it together mainly because some of the drilled holes are not quite large enough for the bolts, so you have to force them through which is not easy since everything is heavy, solid steel. But now that it is finally together I am very happy with it. This is not your standard [...] type of swing, it is made with heavy steel pipes and very strong, easily strong enough for an adult to swing on for example. The swings themselves are I think the nicest I have seen. Overall I am impressed and the kids are happy too.

We really like this set. The color is nice because it blends into nature and it is very sturdy and tall so our kids at ages 11 and 13 can still use if they want to. We only rated four stars because my husband got so frustrated with the bolts that he went and bought better ones THAT WILL NOT RUST. We are very disappointed that parts started to rust after just one season...not even sure it was a full season.

We purchased this to replace a wooden set, and have been very pleased with it. Our only regret is purchasing the wooden set first and not getting one of the bigger play sets from Lifetime. The caps on the end of the top bar have popped out after some older kids were vigorously swinging, but they went back on and seem to have stayed.

Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. This is a great swing set. I was skeptical at first because you did not need to anchor it, but as long as it rests on level ground, it is perfect. I have an 8 year old and a 1 1/2 year old and they both love it. It looks great and is very sturdy even when the kids swing high!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this swing set last week. It was so easy to easy up and very well made. I would recommend this set to anyone. My little girl has had tons of fun already on it. Thanks lifetime for making a awesome swing set!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids were SO excited about this swing set and it did not disappoint! It came in a compact box with clear instructions-- my husband was able to put it together by himself in an afternoon. It's very sturdy and fits perfectly in our back yard. I have 4 children, aged 2-5, and they've already spent hours playing on it! I highly recommend it!

We bought this because our old one wore out it’s time. We would buy from Lifetime all the time!

Bought it 6 years ago, moved it a couple of times, great weight/sturdy. Sold to another family with some surface rust on chain and some weathering on sticker, otherwise powder coated finish like new

I have had this swing for almost 10 years with no issues. My son who is on the spectrum and almost 19 uses it every day especially before he goes to bed.

Our 4 grandkids absolutely can't wait to play on it when they arrive (ages 3-6). And grandma has been known to swing on it and watch the boats go by. It arrived early and is super sturdy.
