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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

Not sure if it was the manufacturer or Sam's responsible for our terrible experience. Dissatisfied with both since we still have no resolution. Paid over 1600 after tax for basically a damaged product. We purchased on Feb 26,2026. Started putting it together early March to discover pieces broken, wood chipped in multiple places, and somehow holes were drilled in wrong spot. One piece of board was also cut to wrong size. We had center tower assembled and noticed all this so we stopped and notified Sam's customer care who was not helpful at all, just referred us to the local store since we purchased it there. Local store has not been helpful either they strung us along like they were going to help just to now say we can return it for full refund. We would have to completely disassemble what's already together or rent a huge trailer to return it. Then start over rebuilding. It's very time consuming to build. Not wanting to do that if we return it we will buy something else somewhere else. I asked for parts to be replaced and Sam's never contacted manufacturer like they let me to believe they might so I will now try that myself. I asked the store for discount for all the troubles and they offered me a $25 gift card. Are you kidding me? On a purchase that large just $25 discount for damaged goods.

Full disclaimer, it hasn't been used yet as our yard is still in the process of a full landscaping overhaul. However, it seems incredibly sturdy and is a thing of beauty - for a play structure lol! It is a huge upgrade from our old one!

Looks great. The manufacturer sends the same hardware kit for all their sets so don't panic when you have extra bolts and screws. I recommend coating every piece that makes ground contact with flex seal. This will help it last much longer.

We got this a few weeks ago and it is perfect. It really hits on various ages, ways to play, and challenges for each of my 3 kids and their friends. Overall we are thrilled with this purchase.

Easy assembly Some board stamp identifations were hard to read. However, identification can be determined by measuring
