We recently purchased this and assembled it last weekend. I was very impressed with the labeling of pieces and simplicity of the insructions. I have bought entertainment stands that were more confusing. Was able to have it put together within the weekend.

Very easy to put together. HOWEVER: the pieces are boxed up in no particular order. When assembling, you have to dig through all four boxes to find the pieces needed for a particular assembly. That is VERY time consuming. My wife would search for parts while I assembled them. Took 5 days (24 hours total) to complete. Looks great and the kids LOVE it!

Purchased online after reading many reviews. I knew this was going to be a big project and it was. My husband and father in law build this in 3 days working about 8 hours a day on it. But before assembling anything my husband and I sorted and separated all the pieces, nuts, bolts and brackets. Huge help in quicker assembly. We were also able to see right away that 2 pieces of wood were cracked (probably during shipment) and we were missing a bag of bolts. Bolts were easy enough to replace from local hardware store and the wood pieces that were cracked were from wall slats on the inside part of the second floor so we were able to use them without any issues. Overall, the playset looks great, is very sturdy and my son and nephews all love it.

This is an excellent product and well-worth the money. I bought it for my grandson who totally enjoys it. My son and I assembled it over 3 weekends. We both have significant woodworking experience and really enjoyed the project. We did not encounter any problems as mentioned in a few other reviews. No parts were missing and all were clearly identified, no boards were cracked or otherwise damaged, one floor assembly had minor warping but was easily fixed, and holes were accurately pre-drilled. Assembly is a major project and probably should not be attempted without some woodworking experience. The instructions are clear but must be followed carefully. We installed 2 boards incorrectly but it was our fault not the instructions. Be careful not to over-tighten screws to avoid wood splitting. The end product is sturdy and an attractive yard set. We will apply a wood sealant as directed in the instructions and expect the playset to last for many years. Most importantly, the kids love it!

The Skyfort II is great for our kids, currently 7 and 3. They enjoy each level and having their own clubhouse, fort, and lookout. We ordered it just prior to the pandemic and built in the first month of quarantine. It was great for them to have some place to play when parks were shut down. However, building the Skyfort II was a complicated process. Due to work and weather issues, we had to break up the work on it. But it took double the amount of time than what the instructions estimate. There were some boards to split a little during the building process and several that needed holes drilled into them, rather than them having pre-drilled. Since it's been built my kids and several big kids have played on it. And it has also weathered 3-4 bad thunderstorms. So, it's proving it's stability and durability.

We have had this swing set for a year and when we purchased it, my husband worried about buying such and expensive swing set, but I can tell you that we now both agree that it is worth every penny. It has enough to do on it that the kids don't get board. They play on it constantly. We have needed a few replacement parts, but the company has been great about getting them to us. We are very satisfied with this purchase.

I bought this for my kids about a year and a half ago. I love it so far. It was the best value for the money that I found. I wanted to get a slide, monkey bars and swings. I also did not want to have to stain the entire playset so this was perfect. It had all the features I wanted and was pre-stained and it is made of cedar so that was a bonus. It has held up very well. I did move and have to move this and partially disassemble it and put it back together. It held up well. My kids love it and play in it often. It was quite a job to set it up. I set it up myself working on it in the evenings and sometimes on the weekends and I bet it took me close to 2 weeks to assemble it all just working on it in my free time. I would recommend having a nice drill with a good batterypack or multiple battery packs and an impact driver for the lag screws. I was in the market for those tools at the time anyway and bought a pair of those with lithium ion battery packs and that helped a lot. I do not believe that I was missing any parts and did not have to order anything extra. I am just going to setup the sand box for my kids. I did add reinforcing particle board panels on the crows nest floor to make it more solid and give me peace of mind with my kids playing in it. I can stand in it and it holds me fine. I weigh about 160lbs so it should hold a few small children fine.

Product arrived in 4 large heavy boxes. Took 2 full days to put together. Only complaint with building the play set was some instruction pages were very vague and didn't specify which way to put boards until a few pages later, so there was a lot of backtracking. Which is why I gave this a 4 star rating. Will need a minimum of 2 people to put this together. Other than that it is a great play set and my kids love it. Would definitely recommend this play set and/or brand to others!

The playset was delivered a week or so. My husband plans to start on it this week. I am excited and the boys keep asking about it. When the set was delivered, there was a box that was damaged. The delivery guy was super nice and noted it and told us to keep our eye out for damaged pieces. We found one piece that had been splintered. We called customer service and they said they would send us a new piece. Also, the playset did not come with instructions. We were told to download it from the website. For the money, you would think they could add a complimentary set of instructions. Hopefully the set-up goes well! So far service has been great.

We bought this clubhouse last year from Sams. All the other places we ordered from I had to send back. When we received it we went ahead and started organizing. If anything was missing all we had to do was call and they sent out a replacement immediately. I know this because they had to send out 2 things that we thought we didn't have when we actually did. No questions asked. It has been a year and the sealer we applied still looks great. What a great investment. All the kids that come over love it. We also used 4 tons of rubber mulch around it. We couldn't be more happy.
