Variety of features but cumbersome assembly

We love all the features with this playset (swings, kitchen, wheel, telescope, etc) and it seems to be of good quality. The kitchen is super cute. The assembly however, was quite cumbersome. I believe the manual says it takes 2 people 11 hours, but that's a bit unrealistic. My husband is in the trades with all the tools and this took us a couple of weekends, here and there, to put together while watching 2 kiddos. The order of some of the steps is counterintuitive, I'd recommend looking ahead and changing some things around. If you plan to assemble over multiple days and are somewhere windy, make sure you have it temporarily anchored down as the order of assembly doesn't make it super stable right off the bat. I read reviews before we purchased and someone mentioned using zipties to assemble the tube slide before the final hardware, this was a great tip as it is a little complicated and helped align pieces! Wish the top level was a bit wider, otherwise it's great!

Not Worth It

Assembly and instructions were absolutely awful and a lot of the wood split on all different pieces because of how cheaply made it is. For what you pay, it's surely not worth it. Luckily my child loves it but I don't see it lasting very long, I will never purchase a swing set from this brand ever again.

High quality, great price!

We found this from sam's club and could not be happier. Delivery was a breeze, however one box was missing but they send out a replacement immediately. The quality is above and beyond what I was expecting for the price. Assembly was straight forward with great directions.

Great Product and Good Customer Service

Bought this about 9 months ago for my daughters age 5 and 2. They love playing on it. Assembly took quite a bit of time. Unfortunately ours got blown over by the Derecho storm and broke apart, and the company did provide replacement parts and assisted us in getting the swing set rebuild. Would buy again in the future.

Great features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It took a while (one month) to be delivered. However, I'm happy with the purchase. Has different options for the kids to play without getting board. It had 3 swings, 2 slides, a rich wall and for the younger one underneath play cooking grill area.

Easy to Understand Instructions

The Bristol Point playground arrived earlier than expected. I would consider myself an advanced builder/assembler, and I took this on alone. Taking my time, and following the very clear instructions, it took me about 16 hours from start to finish. One piece was damaged during shipping. The website made it very simple to register my product, order the replacement part (at no cost), and receive it in just a couple days.

Incredible and durable Playground!

We bought this set nearly a year ago, so it has gone through a Buffalo, NY winter and there are zero signs of wear/tear or fade. My children have played on in in all four season as well, with anything from flip flops to snow boots! It's just as lovely and strong as the day we had it assembled! We could not recommend this product more!!

Great Product!

Great Product, only issue I had was had to pre drill holes for the rock climbing wall. The bottom of the uprights cracked because the screws were too close to the edge of the wood. Only other suggestion is to make each bag of hardware correspond to each page in the assembly manual. This would save probably 1/4 of the time to put together the playset.

Great addition to the backyard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This swing set is great! Lots of things for kids to enjoy and explore - we hired someone to put it together based on the reviews that mentioned how long the slide took, but we have been really happy with it!

Perfect for my two year old to grow into

First, DO NOT put together yourself unless you have to. It took four professionals 14 hours to put it together. Wood quality is not the best but when all put together, it is very sturdy. This is perfect for my two year old to grow into. The height is a little scary for him and the round slide is a little bif but he loves playing on the swings and the kitchen area underneath. This will probably fit him up until 8ish years old but then I'd be worried the wood couldn't handle him, if it lasts that long. Overall, great set for the price.
