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.

Better than expected!

We got this right when parks shut down for covid so that our littles would have somewhere to play. I didn't expect the extras with the play food and electronic sizzle feature. My kids are obsessed! It did take two days for my husband and I to put it together, but it was well worth the time. We would definitely purchase again!

Good home project

I just finished the install of the Bristol Point and contrary to some reviews it was not difficult. The tubular slide took a bit of effort, but I was able to do it in less time than estimated with no issues. Overall it took me about 15 hours in total to do the assembly by myself. I swapped out the bar for a toddler swing. My girls love the set and will for years to come.

Best purchase we EVER made!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For our kids (ages 1 and 3) we got them this swing set as their birthday present! We wanted something that they could enjoy now, but too, something they could grow into for years to come. Within 6 months they have played on it everyday, day or night and have an absolute blast. I’m not sure what their favorite feature is; the swings, slides, kitchen, or chalkboard walls. But it’s safe to say it’s fun for all ages and definitely the best present we could have got for our kids.

Perfect swing set!

My daughter is 3 and is absolutely in love with this set. It’s well made and had so many fun features. It’s more of a “play set” than a simple swing set. The two slides and kitchen make it so unique. Took a long time to put together, but helped to organize pieces ahead of time.

Plenty of WOW Factor

My wife and I purchased this swing set for our children with the hope/understanding that it would likely be the last swing set we'd buy for our children. That made it easier for us to rationalize stretching the budget to "go big" instead of buying a cheaper one. We are so glad we did. This swing set is sturdy as can be and has plenty to keep our kids (ages 12, 11, and 3) busy and entertained. We love that it has two slides and the kitchen area is adorable. The look of it is also unique enough to set it apart from most other swing sets. I will say that the setup time was longer than I anticipated, but I was able to put it together with just the help of my 11 year-old daughter over a weekend and we couldn't be happier with how it came out.

Endless Fun & Beautiful play set!

We set-up this play set about a month ago and our kids have been on it every day since! We put a lot of thought and research into choosing a play set for our kiddos. This one checked all the boxes with all its wonderful features (the tube slide and kitchen area being a current fave) and it also is aesthetically pleasing as well! We have gotten so many compliments from our neighbors! Overall we are thrilled with our purchase!

Pretty sturdy

I brought this in April and my 3 kids play on it almost everyday. My son is almost 14 year old who weights 119lbs. Loves playing on the swings. My husband is 5'9, 165lbs and he also plays on the slides with our youngest 2. I feel its pretty sturdy and I love the way it looks.

Awesome

We bought this for my 15 month old back April and she loves it the only probably we have with it is the stove eye that makes the pot and pan and blender to work quit working after a thunderstorm would love to get a replacement for it that was one of her favorite things about the playset
