Bought this for the kids this spring and they love it. It took about 3 days to put it together with minimal help. If you don’t have patience this is not a job for you, pay to have it assembled. The reviews are true about the curly slide, it took the longest by far. Attention to detail is a must. Use the app for sure! It was way easier than using the book. The only issue we have had with this so far, some of the floorboards need replaced because of splinter potential, and some of the pre drilled holes cause the screws to strip easily. Other than that it feels solid and the kids love it.

It took 2 engineers 20 hours over 3 days to assemble! Sooo many screws at least 25 different types/sizes so make sure you tape your bags closed before shutting down for the day so as not to mix them up or lose any as there are no extra pieces! they should have come in resealable bags! We added a 24'X28' landscape timbers perimeter 8' timbers are 2"X3" and Lowes sells them for $5. each. Nailed into the ground with 2-12" rebar rods in each timber. and filled with 8 cubic yards of sand! Awesomeness!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My sons loves they’re play area! The play on it everyday when it’s not raining, no joke. My youngest who is 18 months now started playing on it a couple months ago and he loves the slides. My older son who is 4 1/2 likes everything about it: the swings, the chalkboards, the slides, the kitchen/bbq grill. He always wants hos friends over to play.

This swingset was definitely a life saver for my 5 year old during this pandemic. It was easy to purchase through the website and delivery was scheduled through the carrier. Once delivered it took my husband about 6hrs total to build. It is endless hours of fun for the littles. While many other options were on backorder, Backyard Discovery had available stock that fit our needs. We are pleased with the purchase and the quality that will last for years to come.

We purchased our set about a month ago...due to the pandemic everything has been sold out. We were so excited to find this set, and it was SUCH an amazing deal. We paid for installation because it may have otherwise taken us the rest of the summer to build! Haha! One man came and put it together and my son was ecstatic! It is sturdy, well made, and beautiful. We spend lots of time outside playing now! Thanks!!

Overall its a great swing set. Assembling wasn't that hard but one of the floor panels were too big (shown in pic 2)and ended up having to cut it it make it fit. It was delivered 6-19 but the tube slide was missing. Should be here 7-9. Other than that its a great set!

We bought this when no one could go to the park for the kids. They just love it. Curly slide is a bonus. It does take time to put together if you didn't pay someone. It is a must with two people and patience that's for sure. The curly slide was a little rough to put together. Overall it is worth time for the kids. Sturdy and well put together.

The idea that this takes 2 adults 8-10 hours to assemble is not true. My husband and son are both extremely adept at assembling and carpentry AND there were 2 of us organizing the parts for each step. We worked 9+ hours and that didn't include the slides, the swings or attaching the part the swings are on, the kitchen appliances or the anchors. The "twisty" slide instructions say it takes 3 hours alone. Once it is done...it is very nice. It would be nice is Bristol would put an arrow beside the part # to show which way is up on the part! The instructions are little vague in areas, so if you aren't familiar with reading diagrams it may take even longer. Luckily my guys were good at this.

We were so thankful we purchased this play set for our grandchildren ages 3 1/2and 2 1/2. They absolutely love it! Playing several hours a day on it. The top bar going down the slide is a bit low as the 2 1/2 year old did hit his head on it, but now he knows to duck. Arrive a couple of days early too!

Though we exceeded the suggested build time of 8 hours, it really was not hard to assemble. I am very detail oriented so we took our time, read ahead and made sure it was done right the first time. though the instructions that came in the box were confusing at times, the Bilt Ap made it much easier to follow. it broke down the booklet into smaller more manageable easy to follow steps. the kids love it so much that we have a hard time getting them off of it for meal time. the second level has been proven big enough for then to enjoy a little picnic up there from time to time. the only negative is the rock wall. I feel like there needs to be an additional support beam to go across the middle as the center of each plank is quite flimsy. I will be adding one in myself soon.
