Almost Perfect

Almost perfect Nearly perfect! Easy (but long) instructions. Did almost everything with one person. Came up short by 3 on one bag of screws, but brass wood screws are easy to find. A few boards were warped but not unusable. It has a great warranty and if I wanted to have BYD replace those parts, they would in an instant. Give yourself 3-4 days if you are doing this by yourself, 2-3 with 2 people. The monkey bars are 7.5 ft off the ground so we are waiting to install them until we have wood chips down. The most important part? The kids love it!

Pandemic Proof

We bought the Skyfort II set at Xmas 2019 for our then 2yro. Who knew that just around the corner all public parks and playgrounds would be closing. We assembled the set, my little one helped with his plastic tools, at the end of January. This set was more of a life saver than we ever could have imagined when we made the purchase. We have since added some accessories from the BYD site to add to his entertainment options. Nothing short of hours of fun for my little one. I am a bit old school and used the paper directions to assemble. At 36 yro, it took me 2 full weekends to assemble alone. I have no complaints though.

Love it

Our grandson loves his new play set. The deliver was very good. I called and set up a date. They called one hour before they arrived and again 30 minutes before they arrived. The truck driver was very helpful getting it off the truck. There were a lot of pieces but we marked each one off in the book as we took it out of the boxes. It took my husband and son-in-law about 24 working hours to put it together. We are very happy with our purchase.d

Great Investment

It was a little overwhelming opening the first of four boxes of parts...but after sorting the pieces by label number, the whole project went together really well. The directions were illustrated very well and easy to follow along. It took me about 2 1/2 full days to complete and I highly recommend using cordless drills (2 or 3 drills for driving, screwing, & pre-drilling). Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the quality of this product!

Worth every penny

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.

Fantastic, Affordable and Quality

The Backyard Discovery Sky for 2 is a fantastic addition to any backyard that provides hours of fun and imaginative play for kids. This playset is designed with safety in mind, featuring sturdy and durable construction that ensures your kids can climb, swing, and slide to their heart's content without any worry. The set includes a sturdy fort with a colorful canopy, two swings with adjustable heights, and a slide that provides a thrilling ride for kids. The swings are made with soft-grip chains that prevent pinching and the slide has high walls and a wide base to ensure a safe landing. One of the best things about the Sky for 2 is that it is designed to grow with your children. The swings have adjustable heights, so they can be raised as your kids grow taller. The fort is also spacious enough to accommodate multiple kids and can be used for imaginative play, such as playing house, pirates, or anything else they can imagine. Overall, the Backyard Discovery Sky for 2 is an excellent investment for any family looking to provide their kids with a fun and safe outdoor play experience. It is well-built, easy to assemble, and provides endless opportunities for active play and imaginative exploration. Your kids will love it, and you'll love that they're getting exercise and fresh air while having a great time.

Fun but maybe not for long

The slide won't last it's too flimsy. As for the double swing the hardwear holding it up has already made the holes too big in the soft wood just from the kids swinging on it. Other then that we love it. My four kids are having a ball and stay outside 1/2 the day playing happy as can be.

Very satisfied,would recommend to friends

Very satisfied with the final product. It did take a week to put together with just working on it in the evenings after work but the instructions were easy to read. Had a few pieces damages during delivery and 1 cracked and 1 an inch shorter than it should be but I went on their website and reordered them and they shipped them back quick without any trouble. I would order it again. I agree with some of the others I was surprised the slide wasn't a solid plastic piece. My son slides down it super fast so we help him until he gets a little bigger but he loves it. Still need to take some time to seal it but I would recommend this to anyone. We are happy and our son is happy.

Great instructions and labeled parts!

We were so glad to get the play structure. Delivery was wonderful they unloaded it and left it in our garage at my request since I was home. Each box had an inventory list and was very easy to unload and check off the inventory. Each piece was labeled nicely and the instructions were very well written. You could also follow along on your cell phone so we followed along in the instructions book as well as followed along on the online video it made putting the product together very clear! It took 2-4 of us about 2 days to assemble. Customer service was also outstanding!

Great Looking Fort!!

The grandkids LOVE this thing. The whole thing was packaged very well. I did have to make a modification to part SP50; the holes at the top were on the wrong side. It only took a few days to assemble, but, would have taken longer if I did not have the “bilt” app to help. I would definitely recommend this swing set!!
