It's fun for the grandkids, however when putting it together some of the bolt holes didn't line up and required re-drilling. Outside of that it was easy enough to put together, their technical writer could have done a better job in writing the instruction manual. As I found it faster to jump ahead and build somethings first while assembling to Skyfort...

Bought this play set and the kids are happy we did.it was just as ordered and a great bargain. It came quickly, took a couple of days to put together, a lot of parts!! If you have never assemble any thing like this before ask for help,instructions are pretty good but still a lot of parts

We bought this for our granddaughters. The set looks great and they love it. The slide is a little too bumpy and on the last hump in the slide sends her flying. The slide design could use some work. The directions could have been more descriptive. The directions could spell out the orientation of the predrilled pieces of wood. Pay close attention to the predrilled pieces of wood and that they are placed correctly during assembly.

The Skyfort II is nice, when put together it is smaller than I thought it would be. My grandson loves it, however his pepaw did not like how each section was in different boxes all separate. It took him and my son 8 days to put it together. It is best to lay out each box separately to let the pieces be easier to find.

We had this play set installed a few weeks ago and it completely transformed our backyard. The kids absolutely love playing on the playset and play dates have become so much more entertaining. Everyone wants to come over to our house to enjoy our backyard. We couldn't be happier!

Project is daunting at first. A lot of boxes and a lot of parts. A good general knowledge of tools is extremely helpful. It took about a week to ten days to build but not eight hour days. Our delay was getting final area around play yard prepared. Several guys needed to move it to spot. Some of the instructions are difficult to understand from drawings. Some of the boards were warped and I had to trim a board in different sections to make it fit. I found it impossible to hide all the markings(letter/numbers) from view. I think my grandkids will have years of fun on the Skyfort 2.

I am so happy i purchased this as a house warming gift for my daughter. Everything is well marked with clear instructions-not as overwhelming a project as some make it sound. Sort things out -have your tools ready and follow instructions and you'll have a new swingset in no time. My only complaint is the inability for the delivery men to put the 4 packages in the driveway-she lives in the country with a huge driveway and they would only put the boxes at the curb-there were only 4 boxes!? Otherwise I see many years of backyard fun for the grandchildren!

Still early but seems like a nice playground set. My child likes it. The assembly purchased was delayed for a few weeks. I ended up hiring a separate company to assemble the playground. It was easy enough to get a refund though, just inconvenient. From seeing it assembled, if there could be fewer little parts and various hardware sizes, it would probably make the set more attractive to buyers. All in all, happy with this product.

Pretty good. Ordered this for our three daughters ages 5, 5 and 11. Everything seems solid enough...couple of cracked boards on arrival, and one "peeling" board face on the picnic table top. The picnic area is pretty narrow even my 11 year old has a bit of a time getting in and out, and all three eating at it, could have added another slat for the seat and table area to make it more usable for four kids. And then the slide, our 80lb daughter slides on it (its FAST) but it bows quite a bit and makes a lot of noise as she goes down. Documents say it supports 120 lbs x 9 kids, so I hope this holds up, would have liked a slide in one piece though (or been given the option to trade it out.) Suggestions for future owners, put those numbered bags of screws and nuts in numerical order, it will be fast to grab the ones you need at each step, if you know where they are. Also we sealed ours before putting together and that was a huge time sink, but again, worth it in rainy Virginia. We have had it together about three weeks, two of the screws on top of the rock wall sheered off after just a few climbs up, allowing the top to lift off. - Not sure what happened there, but we added some stronger screws. All the kids are happy with it. Together, we decided that if we were designing a better model we would have a one piece slide, made more monkey bars for the bigger kids, made the "floor space about two feed wider (underneath and on top), added a slat to each picnic table seat and one to two more for the table, and made the swing area about 1 foot taller.

My boys range from 3-8 years old and they all love it! The slide is fast and they love going up to the crows nest! The swings are a bit close together, but other than that, everything has been great. We ended up trading one swing out for a trapeze bar.
