Time Consuming Build but WORTH IT!

Our daughter is obsessed with her “playground.” As soon as she gets home, she heads straight for it and stays out until nearly dark. She’s 2 and a half and loves the kitchen and slides. The assembly… it took 2-3 people about 15 hours to complete. The app was SO helpful. Being able to turn the picture to different angles was extremely beneficial. USE THE APP!! There were a couple of pieces that were labeled incorrectly in the instructions. But other than that, the app and instructions were great. One HUGE thing you HAVE to be careful on is the tube slide! Be sure you line up the R with the arrow. We never used the L (don’t know what it’s for). BUT we accidentally flipped a piece upside down (the straight circle tube that attaches to the very top piece). And we had to undo those two sets of bolts. The tube slide was time consuming, but just follow the line the R to Arrow rule and you’ll be fine. I would have liked longer screws in that tube slide attachment part. We also had to take the top board off to fit the tube slide and replace the board afterward. There were a few issues along the way with boards splitting, which is my biggest reason for not giving a 10/10. Sometimes it was when we hit a knot and I know that’s unavoidable. But others was just thin wood. I also over tightened the bolts on part of the tube slide when building the cylinder pieces themselves. Be careful not to do that or you’ll have to get washers / larger bolts to fix the issue. My dad who helped my husband and I assemble it is pretty handy, so he was able to fix (or is going to fix) a few of those main wood issues. For the electric stove, the instructions aren’t very clear. You insert the batteries. Then you have to place the blender on the sensor to make it work. You also have two other sensors that go on the bottom of the pot and frying pan to make them make a sound as well. ALSO there are soooo many bolts, screws, washers… I think the process could have been a lot more smooth with more streamlined parts. before you start building, my biggest piece of advice is to take an hour or so and open up every box. Then sort the hardware based on numbers (10’s, 100’s, 200’s etc). You will also need to sort the wood pieces letters A-T. Sorting all of that beforehand makes it a ton easier! Overall, the swing looks amazing. Be prepared for a long few days of building.. but it was worth it.

Wonderful Playset

We purchased this for our kiddos after the playhouse that (came with the house) was literally falling apart. My kids LOVE this play set!!! The cooking area is a big hit (although after a little while/rain the things stop working) we just tell them to use their imagination and it's fine! The enjoy the top part and they especially love that there are two slides! I would definitely recommend purchasing this play set! :)

Great features, sturdy, fun for hours

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago and was very happy with the product and for the assembly of the playground set. Both my kids (8 and 2) enjoy this playground. It is made sturdy and has many different things to do on it. My little girl loves the grill to cook pretend food. My son enjoys the swing house and the tubular slide!

Great Purchase

We bought this about a month ago and we put it together. It took 2 days but it was worth it. Easy to follow instructions. The only downside is the delivery was hectic. The delivery company kept saying we weren't home but we were. I ended up picking up the item from their location. The entire playhouse fit in my truck. No need for freight delivery. I am very happy with this purchase! Very vibrant colors and details!

Not worth the money

The material is very cheap. You cannot lean or try to seat on it because you hear it and sounds like it's going to break.

The kids love it

This is a very sturdy and well made swing set. My only con is that the toys it comes with are more for toddlers, so older kids won't get much use out of them. The telescope is also very low, so older kids have to bend uncomfortably to use it.

Good price decent construction

bought this for my 3 and 4 year old they like it so far.. i hope they are able to enjoy it for a while as the weight limit doesn't seem that high nor the actual slides and what not. But its a good set and has a lot to offer

could be better quality for the price.

some wood split. some pre drilled holes where missing and some screws where to small for what it was holding down. no tool to help drill down the ground ties.
