Great value, all pieces were present. All wood was in good shape. Assembly was very difficult if you want a precision job and I have very good carpentry skills. The instructions were very difficult to follow. The word instructions did not always match the pictures and several times they had you anchor something down to early that could cause alignment issues. You can avoid this by reading ahead at least a page or two and modifing as you go.

After an extensive review of swing sets the backyard sky fort 2 seemed to have the best reviews and best fit for our daughter and also reasonably priced. We are very pleased with it and our 2 1/2 yo daughter loves her new swingset. We had a company put it together for us and they had it done in 1 day. Everything seems solid enough... after a couple of weeks we’ve noticed a few of the boards warping, some cracked or starting “peeling". We were never made aware that you have to apply a sealant on it. Had we known this it could’ve been avoided. We did contact backyard and they shipped out replacements boards. Other than this, we would recommend this swingset. It has a great variety of stuff to play on!

I bought this for our four grandkids, ages 3 to 8. They love it. Well built with easy to follow instructions. Me and the wife put this together, with no arguments. The key is not to be in a rush to get it together. I sorted the parts out on a 16' trailer on a Saturday. We stated putting it together most of the day Sunday. Worked a few hours in the afternoons Monday and Tuesday. Finished on Wednesday. Hardware was good quality and everything fit as it should. Highly recommend.

We got this playset for our 3 kids, ages 3,7 & 8 for Christmas 2018. It was a pain to put together. The easiest way is to go thru the directions and separate stuff into piles, the directions aren’t very good and it’s all unorganized the way it’s boxed up. Once you organize and separate, it gets easier to put together. It maybe took 1 1/2 months to get together working several random hrs here and there. Also due to bad weather, lots of snow & rain there was even more delay.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love it, the kids love it! It was a bit difficult to follow the instructions and sort through all the lumber and hardware when building yourself and some of the pre drilled pieces were drilled a bit off but overall with many hands and a good chunk of time we were able to get the job done and now enjoy this awesome play set!

I bought this in May for my daughter’s birthday. Big 3, and so far it’s still under construction but will be finished soon. I would say it does need additional information on which way some of the wood pieces go. Especially on some that look alike. I’ve caught myself having to redo and unscrew pieces because it goes on the opposite end. As well as turning the piece around 180. Other than this, it does have many features other sets do not have. Would love to come back and update my review with photos.

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.

We looked at many playsets and their reviews. There were good and bad reviews for many, so we took a chance on this one. My husband put it together by himself. It took about 31 hours over a weeks time to build. Before he began building, he organized materials by the steps in the book, which made finding what he needed much easier. He needed my help only a few times. Our children are 11,8, and 4, and so far, they all enjoy it.

This is well worth it! Kids love it!! It is quite the build, I had read reviews and lot of people organized the parts saying it help and it really does very important to do so there is a ton of pieces with it’s own numbering and helps if you know where it is caused you have organized it. It took me and my brother 3 days to finish. Because it is wood some pieces are warped a bit making it hard to use the pilot holes they provided but improvised little bit and came out great!

Great entertainment for my 3 children. When I recieved this product I inventoried this product by seperating it into 10 steps at a time per instruction booklet. I purchased Thompsons Water Seal (Honey Cedar) and sealed all boards before assembly. Recommend to have a cordless impact drill and a standard cordless drill, one for lag bolts and one set up for pilot holes. Took approx. 12hrs to unpackage, organize, and waterseal. Approx. 12hrs to assemble. Recommend to purchase sand box liner with cover or I purchased 1x6 doug fir and painted green to match green on playset for more play area.
