Horrible. We have had it for 2years and the wood started chipping immediately and looks awful. The door sags in the corner so it won't shut right and gets stuck. So disappointing for the amount we paid.

4 stars instead of 5 due to shipping delays and poor communication during transit. Also, the wood is fairly lightweight, so I would anticipate a bit of maintenance for it to last very long. That said, took me about 18 hours to assemble; 5 were with help and the rest were solo. Do yourself a favor and invest 1.5 hours to unboxing everything, organize all of your pieces alphanumerically, organize all your hardware by type and alphanumerically, and set up a workstation next to your working area. Avoiding digging through boxes and walking all over the place looking for stuff will really be worth it in the longrun. I didn't bother with the app but the paper instructions were perfectly fine. A majority of the pieces had pilot holes pre-drilled. I drilled some additional of my own pilot holes since the wood is on the softer end, as I mentioned earlier. All in all, I think this is a great set for the price point, considering the size and features.

We love this set so much! It took me and my husband 3 hours to really prep everything (laying out all the wood, organizing the hardware and labeling it, hauling it all to our backyard). Then it took my husband and 2 neighbors 10 hours one day and then they finished up a second day with about 3 hours. They said directions were easy to follow and we didn't run into any issues. Nice to have someone who is handy helping to troubleshoot as you go! Our kids are obsessed. In my opinion it's the most “bang for your buck” because there's so many features that make it unique and it's huge! I wanted something lots of kids could come play on and it exceeds that expectation!

if first like to say it is a very pretty playground, with the slide, tu,el, mountain climb ing etc.... but for us we've had this item for like 7 months and the wood already has cracks in several places, and is now not so durable .I was hoping it would last us at least 3 yrs.

This is the prettiest, most fun backyard play place I've ever seen. It looks amazing in our yard, the kids love all of the different things to do on it and it was easy to put together. My husband built it alone over 2 weekends (a few hours each day) and it came out wonderful. I cant wait for the years and years of fun this playset will provide my girls.

Our kids love it so much and it’s really a good looking playground. Downfalls, it took my husband 4 days to build it because he basically had to do it by himself. It’s for sure a 2 person job. The wood is very soft so it’s easy to damage. The worst part was probably the fact that it came in 4 boxes (all of which were well over 100 lbs) and you had to open alll of them to get started and organize them before you can even start.

We assembled ourselves… definitely took 3 handy people about 30+ hours. And we stained it as instructed so definitely a lot of work. Some of the boards came cracked but still usable? So far kids are LOVING it! Over engineered to the max! Very safe and very fun!

The third party shipping vender that sams had partnered with for the delivery of this item is extremely unreliable. They have changed my delivery date 4 times now. If you plan to buy this item please don't expect it anytime soon. Unfortunately it does reflect poorly on Sam's Club.

Pros: it's pretty Cons: quality is lacking at the least. The pre drilled holes in some sections are not in a straight line so you'll either have slants or need to drill new holes if it's off by a good bit. The Door will sag a month in and the wood will start to crack almost immediately. Overall: while the playset is pretty, the price is astronomical compared to the quality and durability it offers. If I were to go back in time I would not repurchase this set.

We purchased this for my 3 year old directly from manufacturer website. Overall very happy with the purchase. Ordering was easy and it came quickly. We did opt for self installation. Instructions were clear although it is a big project which took several days with 3 of us working on it. It comes packaged in 4 boxes, but the boxes do not coordinate with order of steps for it to be built. My suggestion would be to open all boxes and organize boards alphabetically and bolts /screws/ washers numerically which will really save you time overall. After being built it looks beautiful. Most boards came intact although 1-2 non structural pieces may have had a split in it. Sturdy enough for most kids although boards do bend in on floor when adults stepped on them so we added a few extra pieces of wood for structural support since we knew we'd be climbing in there with our 3 year old. Our 3 years old loves it and know we are going to spend a lot of hours out there this summer.
