We are very happy with the play center. The only downfall to the play center is the ladder. Smaller children have a hard time with the ladder at the top step, it has a long reach for kids to grab the handles which they tend to fall through the last step. On the A Frame set the trapeze bar comes with handles and the bar that would be nicer for the kids to reach. You can buy them separate for $50.

Let me start off by first saying my kids LOVE this playset. It’s better than we expected and they enjoy playing outside now more than ever. The shipment came on a pallet in 4 separate boxes which makes it easier for unloading and moving to the location you want it. Assembly does take a decent amount of time but the directions are easy to follow and you will have it up and ready in no time. If you’re a visual learner download the BILT app, search for the product on the app and you can follow along step by step with easy prompts and visuals. That is how we assembled it. Be advised you will need someone to help you at certain times during the build process. An added bonus that you can’t really see in the pictures is the integrated car map at the top of the platform. My kids love sitting up there to just hangout and bring their cars and toys up there with them. This playset is great for a large age range. My kids love everything about it from the slide to the swings and the rock climbing wall. It’s very well made and will last my kids many years of fun and entertainment. If you’re looking for a backyard playset I would highly recommend this one.

I have had the system in my backyard for about a month and it is a big hit my kids and the kids in the neighborhood. It looks different from any other system out there. I really like the metal and plastic that won't cause splinters and won't rot like wood systems will. Also it is low upkeep (no staining or sanding or anything like that). One small complaint on the two climbing walls is the transition between the wall and the deck. It is a bit of a reach for my 3 year old to grab onto something to get up to the deck. My 5 year old can do it just fine. The kids really like the "fort" underneith and matchbox car city molded into the deck.

I erected this product and it was a great play structure for my kids and their friends. A few months later we had severe weather and extremely strong winds. The winds picked this up a carried it nearly 100 feet before placing it not so gently back on the ground on its side. (I did not have it anchored properly). I got online and found the parts list I needed and called customer service. I was connected to a very helpful lady that was very patient with me. She done a wonderful job putting together the order I need to replace the bent parts. I was extremely happy with this product and the customer service Lifetime provided me. I will purchase more products from Lifetime in the future not only because I think this product is quality but as important the lady in customer service was so pleasant to work with. 5 star product 5 star customer service. Thank you

Our kids LOVE this playset! It gets played on ALL the time. LIKES... The swings and the plastic coated swing chains. Fun climbing wall. The road for playing with cars on the floor on the tower. Love the visually pleasing general aesthetics of this playset. It looks good in the backyard. DISLIKES... The slide is a little fast. The grass in the circle dyes and the kids don't really go in there. ASSEMBLY... Was tricky, especially the roof. And this is coming from a Mechanical Engineer. Two days to assemble, so if you are not mechanically inclined it would be a good idea to pay to have Lifetime assemble it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this play set. We love the swings and the bar swing. There is a car track up on top of the base of the tower. The steering wheel on top of the tower works good. Slide is fun and fast. The whole structure is sturdy and stable for the kids at play. A really good buy

Overall, very pleased with fit and finish. Ease of putting it together was average, but the multiple assembly resources helped well. Seems well built, and kids love it! I wish the powered coat finish was a bit more consistent, as it was chipping already in some spots.

We bought this for our grandson, age 5 and he loves it! He plays on it daily! We no longer have to worry about him not getting enough physical exercise! This playset should last for years as it is very sturdy and exceptionally well built. This purchase was one of our best ever!

After a few weeks of debating this season on whether to go with the standard wood playset, or to lay down a bit more money and go for this one, we decided on this one. We're glad we did, as this piece is solid and obviously high-quality. The low-maintenance aspect of the metal and plastic is great too, as whenever it gets dusty or dirty or some big bird poops on the slide, all it takes is a quick hose-down and it's clean. The assembly was fairly straightforward, but time-consuming. It's still not as bad as the instruction manual made it seem though - it stated it would take 3 people 13 hours to assemble, but it took me 14 hours alone total with a little help here and there from my wife. It also took another 2 hours to properly level the playset and the ground around it (you may or may not have to do this depending on your lawn), and another half hour or so to anchor it with the included kit. You should also factor in the time to make this a safe place to play; because it's so huge a kid could take quite a tumble if they slip off the monkey bars or fall from the deck. Follow the advice in the manual and set up a safety area around it. On our part we bought a wood/pvc mix playground border kit that was almost 6 inches high, set it up around the set, then filled it to the brim with playground wood chips. This beat digging a huge 6-inch deep gouge in our yard, that one day we'd need to fill when our daughter outgrows this and it needs to go.

My 8 grandchildren would have a blast playing on this Lifetime Adventure Tower. There are so many activities that several children can play on it at the same time so no one is left out of having fun! I love the safety features including the heat resistant materials and the covered edges.
