Quite the undertaking, but worth it. Depending if time were money to you or not, you can pay to have it installed...at first I wish I did knowing i wouldnt have the time to dedicate to it to.get it done in a weekend...but each day seeing a knew piece added, and knowing, "i built this for my kid..." gives me a ton of pride. The engineering of the pieces and build itself is incredible. I recommend downloading the app to take you step by step. Incredible piece if equipment for the price. Reccomended!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this last fall for our kiddos to enjoy. They love it! The quality is fantastic and we couldn't be happier. Lots of fun activities and allows for picnics in the tree house part. Highly recommend!

I bought this several months ago and assembled it with family and friends. The swing set is perfect but assembly was a headache. It took 4 of us 2 days to put it together. Finding the labels on the boards was challenging. Once we put it together the kids loved it.

I bought for my granddaughters to have something to play on at my house. Starting with opening box boards are not clearly marked. As my husband started putting it together the materials were so chintzy screws had no heads, boards were bowed and broke as he tried to screw them tight, not enough support on the different levels to hold my husband trying to put it together (he's not a big man) it was so cheeky and wobbly my husband went and bought bracing boards to make it level and brackets to make it more secure...the granddaughters love it now that it's done and the are allowed on it

It's a lot of steps to build, which should be expected. Just make sure you take your time, have the recommended tools, and understand that if you're primarily building this on the weekends by yourself, it's going to take a number of weeks to complete. If you're patient, you'll be fine.

We were finally able to get our hands on a swing set this past May. In came in fairly quick. The 4 huge boxes got me scared at first when thinking about all the parts we were going to have to put together. I went through the instructions, checked and sorted the pieces before we started. I would highly recommend putting them in alphabetical order as it will make work go that much faster once you start putting stuff together. It took my husband and I two solid days of work to put together plus the few hours to check the parts list and organize them. I would recommend this playset to all my friends and family. The kids (and I!) love it. It is sturdy enough for me and my two little to play in. It would be big enough for 5-6 kids to play on. The handles to help climb are perfect. The only downside would be the slide. I wish it wasn't wavy. It's pretty fast and my 3 year old almost gets thrown out of it. We have to hold her to go down for now.

If you cannot assemble a relatively complex piece of IKEA furniture without issues, don't even ATTEMPT to build this swingset. Building it didn't test my marriage at all. In fact, it bonded us even closer than ever against a common enemy... The manual. Asymmetrical pieces are poorly labeled. The order it has you do things makes no sense. Things won't line up and you'll have to back up a few steps which adds to the assembly time considerably. I eventually said to forget the order the directions have you do things, and it went a lot smoother. Just an atrocious process. End result is incredible though.

Step one. Get all the pieces laid out by letter and number. Pieces you need are spread across all the boxes. Step 2. Be prepared to use the app instructions and the paper. The app fills in some gaps. Step 3. Spend several days screwing and screwing and screwing. Impressed by the quality of the hardware

We recently bought this for our 1.5 and 3.5 year old kids. When the boxes arrived, it was a little overwhelming. I would 100% recommend using the Bilt app when assembling. It made assembly so much easier than paper instructions. I was able to put the thing together entirely by myself in 19 hours. After assembly, my kids have not stopped playing on it every chance they get. I would definitely recommend this play set.

Quality product. All hardware and lumber was there, almost all predrilled holes aligned perfectly. Instructions and video made it easy to assemble if you pay attention to where holes are for other steps. You have to unbox and lay out all boards and hardware by numbers to be able to find the right parts because they are packed for shipping not assembly. Made it easy to find once grouped by numbers.
