This setup is awesome for growing kids, but putting it together is a bear. The pieces come in four giant boxes, and half your time is spent looking for the next piece. They do provide the contents of each box on a sheet of paper. So the instructions say you need piece L4 and the you look at each content sheet to find L4. Then dig through the right box. They could just tell you in the instructions where to find the piece.

Box and parts could be easily organized but arent. the screws and bolts were organized by number and it was completely irrelevant. The numbers were so similar and there were so many different pieces that it was very time consuming even after organizing. The cedar wood was very dry and flimsy. I will likely have to add more supports to the house to keep the boards from breaking. Several of the pieces were split that I will have to replace.

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.

Our 4 and 6 year old LOVE this set. It took a while to put together, but it's sturdy and great quality. I can see our kids using this for quite a while. Instructions are pretty easy to follow, but you definitely need to know how to use a drill and you really need two people.

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.

This swingset is very sturdy, just make sure it is perfectly level when you assemble it. Assembly took a few weekends, but we knew that coming. The kids love it. We changed out the swings for a larger one that would hold both kids, and an infant swing. It's super easy to customize the swings for whatever works best for your family. The play area underneath is fun for the baby, who is too small to climb the ladder, and the top playhouse is a great place for the older kids.

I purchased this play set in February, with it arriving in March. We had a site leveled for it and assembled about a week after delivery. It took my father and husband about four days to assemble. Both men are mechanically inclined. My dad was a frame carpenter. They underestimated the length of time it would take. Granted this was while we had stay at home orders so they were assembling while watching our one and two year old sons. It’s not that the assembly is challenging. There are quite a few pieces and organization, patience, and utilizing the manufacturer’s app are the keys to success. As for the assembled set, we love it. Our two year is starting to become comfortable climbing and playing in the “house.” He is infatuated. Personally, I find the set to be aesthetically pleasing. I appreciate the variations in wood tone and the lack of reddish wood that many sets have. It fits in really well with our landscaping. I do think that there will be regular maintenance of the wood. We have not yet sealed ours and I can see wear. I also thing that’s to be expected with any wooden playset. Overall, I’m incredibly pleased. Our kids even more so than us and that’s what is important.

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.

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

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kids love this play set! It is the focus of our yard. The kids spend far more time on this play structure than they do in the other areas of the yard. It is great for hide and seek, tag, playing restaurant and more..... The kids ' imaginations are unbridled on this play set and I love watching them act out their games and role playing in the different areas of the play set.
