I purchased the Adventure Tower Play set six months ago. My grandkids love it. I put it by our pool so they can slide down the slide into the pool. They have a ball with it. We live in Arizona so I installed a mister system on it. It keeps it cool so they can play in the heat of the day. When they are done playing the tower holds their pool toys. I'm so happy I bought this. I would highly recommend this play set. Instructions for assembly were easy to follow. I am a Grandmother...my son and I put it together.

We purchased this Playset over 10 years ago and as foster parents we have had countless amounts of foster children who've enjoyed playing on it. We still have children mention this playground when we run into them out in our community. As a retired police officer and mother I enjoy bringing smiles to the children who came to us with no smiles when they arrived. The only downfall is I wished we could extend this set to add more to it but I haven't seen that as a possibility yet. We were thinking how nice it would be to be able to add the monkey bars and possibly two extra swings. We even thought about a Ninja warrior course because more than probably 100 times our children have us time them as the rush through ever single part of the tower and it's options. It is a super fun experience that we can have in our backyard 😀 thank you Lifetime and if you ever open up the idea to allow owners the options to do add-ons please let us know. Many foster children would enjoy such things. Thank you.

After a few weeks of debating this season on whether to go with the standard wood playset, or to lay down a bit more money and go for this one, we decided on this one. We're glad we did, as this piece is solid and obviously high-quality. The low-maintenance aspect of the metal and plastic is great too, as whenever it gets dusty or dirty or some big bird poops on the slide, all it takes is a quick hose-down and it's clean. The assembly was fairly straightforward, but time-consuming. It's still not as bad as the instruction manual made it seem though - it stated it would take 3 people 13 hours to assemble, but it took me 14 hours alone total with a little help here and there from my wife. It also took another 2 hours to properly level the playset and the ground around it (you may or may not have to do this depending on your lawn), and another half hour or so to anchor it with the included kit. You should also factor in the time to make this a safe place to play; because it's so huge a kid could take quite a tumble if they slip off the monkey bars or fall from the deck. Follow the advice in the manual and set up a safety area around it. On our part we bought a wood/pvc mix playground border kit that was almost 6 inches high, set it up around the set, then filled it to the brim with playground wood chips. This beat digging a huge 6-inch deep gouge in our yard, that one day we'd need to fill when our daughter outgrows this and it needs to go.

My 3-yr-old LOVES this thing! He has no trouble with the ladder, which was my main concern. I researched playsets for months before deciding on this one. Wooden playsets are either way too expensive or made from cheap foreign materials. Playsets made with Pacific hardwood start at $2k and will still decay. This Lifetime playset is very well-made and the instructions were nice and detailed. It helped to read them completely before starting, just to see how and when each piece fit together. Be sure to use only one blister pack of parts at a time!

We bought this product with a few hesitations and we were proved wrong! Our first concern was if it was going to be hard to climb up the green metal ladder for our 3yr old son and 2yr old newphew. They both can climb it great and have yet to have a fall! Second I feared they would be bored with it. I was wrong again! I was super surprised just how much they have enjoyed the little car tracks on top the platform. They take their cars out their and play for literally hours. My 6yr old girl loves it and I thought she was the one who would be easily bored with it. I have been super happy with the shade the top provides because we have no trees in our yard and thankfully it keeps them and the platform cool and out of the sun! My only complaint is the slide can get pretty hot in the summer sun! My kids like to use their water toys to water it down and go down in their swimsuits, but again it does get very hot as a caution! All in all we have been very very happy with the quailty and the fun it provides!

Kids love the Adventure Tower playset. Purchased it at Sam's Club was missing the a part. Provided model number to Lifetime customer service, missing part shipped no questions asked. We have a wooden playset before this is much better and less parts to assemble. Great Product.... Better yet, Great Customer Service..

I bought this at Christmas for my 2-year-old granddaughter. She loves climbing to the top and sliding down. I purchased the basket swing and she likes to be pushed but she prefers the slide. Her school has this exact Adventure Tower on the playground. So it must be sturdy. The neighbor's kid comes over often to enjoy the Adventure Tower.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this play set. We love the swings and the bar swing. There is a car track up on top of the base of the tower. The steering wheel on top of the tower works good. Slide is fun and fast. The whole structure is sturdy and stable for the kids at play. A really good buy

This is a great playset that we will likely enjoy for a long time. The installation process was long and tedious. I recommend watching the videos even if the written directions seem straightforward. We found that there is information in the videos that is not in the written directions. (such as where the swing bar is located in relation to the other parts while building the tower). There were also 2-3 places where the written directions had mistakes and called for the wrong hardware and caused some frustration, but we were able to figure it out with some logic and the help of the video. My only dislike of this playset is the ladder. The arch and distance between rungs is not safe for younger children. The top of the ladder is especially hazardous as the child is stepping from the ladder to the tower. The gap between the top rung of the ladder and the tower is very large. A child could easily fall right through it if they slipped or misjudged the distance. I realize every activity has inherent risk, but they could easily make the rungs closer together, re-engineer the ladder to be steps, or a variety of other safer options. I'd love to see Lifetime offer an aftermarket addition to the ladder to improve the safety. In general, this ladder is not up to par on quality compared to typical Lifetime products.

Our lifetime swingset isn't even 5 years old and it's rusted all over. The ladder tabs completely rusted off, causing the ladder to be unsafe to use. This was a huge disappointment for a brand that considers themselves 'lifetime'. Didn't even get 5 years out of it.
