My friend and I have building experience. This took us 6hrs on day one + 10 to 12hrs of me working solo to complete. We used the paper instructions, but the app was very cool and came in handy for a couple of sections where the image wasn't 100% clear. For me it was too hot to keep my cell outside with the instructions as it would have overheated. Day one we had all the parts organized on the lawn, but we didn't have the hardware organized. We probably lost about an hour of work just looking for the right pieces of hardware with each step. Before starting day two I took 20 mins to sort ALL hardware by color coding and labeling with much bigger numbers. The build after that went SIGNIFICANTLY faster, even though I was solo at that point. DO NOT try to put the twirl slide together solo. That is the one part you need assistance with no matter your experience level. It is just too big and awkward to hold. In the end, we have 0 missing pieces, and 0 damaged parts, other than the ones we damaged. For the damaged hardware we had more than enough spares to not hold us up (stripped screws/bolts). So far the kids love it, and want to play on it day in and out. Next step is to stain, then plan out a rubber mulch bed. Final recommendations: 1) Build start to finish with 2 people. 2) If you have a third, dedicate them entirely to organizing/labeling the parts as you go (collecting the parts for the next step w/ the hardware already picked out). A third person could cut hours back on the full build, and they don't need to do any of the heavy lifting. 3) If you don't have a third, do no start until you are properly organized, it will save you lots of frustration. 4) Plan for a long build. Check weather in advance/get your bug spray & sun screen 5) Have multiple drills (we used 2 impact drivers for 95% of the work and 1 drill. 2 drills would be better, one with each drill bit size for quick access). This ate up 2 full battery charges so have a spare one ready if you can so you don't stop your progress.

Looks good in the picture but it’s not made very well at all. Swings are too close together, kids are bumping into each other while swinging, could easily cause an injury or fall. Main support beam should have been longer to separate the swings more. Wood is very thin, I’ll be very surprised if it lasts more than a few years. Hardware kit had a few unusable bolts because Torx head was properly formed and was missing a few items. Circular slide panels didn’t fit together well and caused a few places to crack when bolts were tightened, middle support was too long but this problem with easily solved by digging out under it a few inches.

Bought it for our granddaughter and 4 other young children in the family. I decided to put it together myself instead of paying the fee to have Sam's send someone out to build it. I highly recommend having both a drill and an impact driver for the task. The materials are high quality and the instructions are easy to follow. I used both the manual and the phone app in order to be able to see the orientation of the parts when installing each component and it makes a huge difference in avoiding installing a piece inverted or mirrored. The manual said to expect 2 people to take 23 hours to complete, but I finished in less than that timeframe by myself (& I'm in my 60's!). This is a great product and I expect it will provide hundreds of hours of enjoyment.

A large thing to take on, but a set of parents dedicated to building this you'll have it done in 3-5 business days (long and full) BUT what an awesome set up, playset, and wonderful adventure for kiddos!

This playset turned out great! The instructions are easy to follow, it took about 26 hours to put together with just my husband and I. The tube slide was the hardest step of the build. Our boys love the playset!

We put this together about 3 weeks ago and our 3 year old loves it. Great quality but it does take a little while to put together. It took 2 of us almost two full days

FOLLOW the instructions! They were amazing & very specific all the way down to the measurements. It was perfect with everything! Even the assembly time was spot on.

Easier to assemble then we anticipated. Grandkids love it.

The kids absolutely love it and it's not difficult to put together.

Product is very cool. Takes very long to put together yourself (BILT app estimates 23 hours with 2 people which is about right). Poor manufacturing processes - lots of pre-fab holes misaligned …which is a shame for such an expensive product.
