The instructions were well written--lots of visuals. The materials were organized really well so it was easy to put together. It still took us a few days just because there are so many steps. The materials are great quality. This is going to last years and years!

This thing is a beast to put together. Make sure you have a ton of time to put this together if you are going to do it yourself. If you have the money to have it put together by professionals I would recommend going that route and saving the stress that is caused by this for something more important. Instructions are clear and the playset is awesome. My 6yr old loves it and uses it everyday its not raining.

Assembly was a real pain because I had to loosen screws then retighten frequently to get stuff lined up right. Had my mother and law and me on top while putting the roof on and didn’t see any issue with that much weight. Doesn’t move at all when kids swing.

We finished assembling the tower on 10/25, and less than 8 weeks later, we see many small areas of rust. We thought it would be at least a year before we would see this much deterioration, so we are very disappointed, especially at this price point. We live in south eastMI, where it is not especially humid, so this seems like a quality issue. We reached out to customer care, but even with replacement parts, we’d have to take apart and reassemble ourselves with the same issue resurfacing two months later - not worth our time and efforts. Very disappointed in the quality.

The playset is perfect -- installation was reasonably priced (would have been quickly installed had the weather not rained us out 3 times - but the installer was great with communication) -- and their customer service department was very efficient. I am super happy and my kids are enjoying it alot! Just wish I'd opted more a total of 4 swings to stop the arguments... :)

bought this a couple months ago because I was not convinced the wooden models in the same price range would hold up well. My son and I got it together over the course of three days (he's 11). The instructions were clear, as long as we paid close attention and didn't rush we didn't have issues. The slide and ladder ARE reversible, which was not clear from some other reviews. I was pleasantly surprised by this as I was able to fit it into our space better than expected. We needed some extra anchors and were able to order the correct anchors for the set in the number required direct from customer service. Very please over all.

I wasn't sure what to expect when ordering a metal play set but it was relatively straightforward to assemble. There were two steps where I needed a second person. One was getting the roof on top. The other involved two screws in the very center of the tower over and under the floor. My arms just aren't that long and I didn't feel like going inside for tape. The play set is rock solid. There were slight issues with leveling that were easily solved by sliding the slightly higher foot back and forth. Sometimes you had to dig a tiny bit under it so the dirt loosened by sliding had somewhere to go. I will say the plastic flooring for the tower was a bit confusing. No matter what I did, it would not sit the way it was supposed to. However, it was near a good stopping point for the day so I just left it until the next day and the problem solved itself. Sitting flat in the sun allowed the two plastic floors to interlock the way they were supposed to easily. I guess they were slightly warped from travel and needed to flatten out. The top of the slide had a bit of a similar problem with being curved while I was trying to screw it in. A day in the sun fixed that too. Also, the kids LOVE this thing. We put a sand box under the tower. They are always out climbing all over this thing. So are their friends. P.S. Don't put the steering wheel on until last. Getting the swing set bar on around that thing is a PITA.

Great product, installation was a breeze, did it in less than 12 hours over 2 days with my 9 year old son. Super high quality product, packaging of parts was super intuitive and organized and instructions were easy to follow. Kids love the play set (even love the extra details like the town stamped on the tower so kids can play with matchbox cars, great detail). Truly believe this play set will out last my 4 kids. Love how this set entertains my 3 year old up to my 9 year old, something for all 4 of my kids. Only negative so far is when 2 kids are swinging next to each other the metal joint on top of the swings rubs and makes a very loud and annoying squeaking/screeching sound. Really no way to lube it now, only seems to go away when someone is on the third swing next to monkey bars. Hoping it gets better over time, but a small price to pay for an otherwise amazing play set.

This playset is wonderful! My girls absolutely love it. It took about 10 hours for my dad & husband to put it together. Instructions were easy to follow. Excellent quality & worth every penny. I feel like this thing will definitely be around for our grandchildren.

This swing set seems very sturdy and resistant to the elements. I found the assembly instructions to be very clear, simple and easy to understand. The only thing I feel it might need is better anchoring tie downs but I’ve found my own system that works well. I love that it’s made in the USA!
