Exceeded every expectation!

We bought this playset for our son's 4th birthday. It arrived a day early (!) in a giant shipping crate. My husband and I got it assembled in about 8 hours. The hardware was brilliantly packaged and the directions were clear and well-written. We could have probably done it in 5-6 hours with another person. Not only is this playset STURDY without being anchored into the ground with cement and maintenance free (no sanding/staining), but they have maximized EVERY surface for play! The floor of the upper deck has roads printed into the plastic for toy cars, the wall behind the captain's wheel is a chalkboard with activities pre-printed on it (hangman, tic-tac-toe), and the roof has stars imprinted into the back side. Well designed, well made, and well engineered for the lay person to assemble. Definitely worth the money to get this playset over a similar playset made of wood for less $$.

Playset

After a lot of research between different products, this one is the best for the money! it arrived several days before it was promised which is a plus but beware all the boxes comes in one big crate. the assembly was easy however it would of been a little nicer if all the parts were tagged with an identification, that slowed assembly down a bit but other wise not difficult at all. Very well constructed and alignment was right on. Grandkids love it and play non stop.... far best Christmas gift we ever bought them.

I love this swingset and so do my grandchildren. It is strong enough for adults to swing on. Cool!

Lifetime Swing

Just got the swing set together that I bought for the grandkids. It is so sturdy and I bet it lasts a lifetime. The kids love it and I can’t keep them off of it. Also, the company is super to work with. The slide has some damage in shipping and I called and was told, “No problem. All we need is the model number and product ID and we will get it to you in a couple of weeks.” Best company and best swing!

Quality is important

Very happy with the purchase. Quality seems great. Packaging was good. Seems far superior to wood play sets. This will last years. My only complaint was no paper instructions. I had to use my phone and find them on website. I took me 2.5 days of serious work. I had a second hand for less than half of the time. Which included my mother and my 7 year old daughter. But with a little creativity and engineering we were able to put this together rather fast. Make sure you follow all steps. I had to redo some steps because I missed small details in assembly process. Overall very happy with my purchase

Lifetime Big Stuff Swing Set (Earthtone)

It feels like it will last, it looks great and the kids love it, so we are very pleased. I built it by myself in about 18 hours, with maybe 20 minutes total of help from my wife when I needed a hand holding things up wile attaching different parts. It wasn't as bad as I expected. One minor point: the screws and other hardware are not fantastic quality. Some of the bolts would not thread properly onto the screws and one screw sheared in half while I was twisting it into a bolt (by hand, not with a drill). This did not create any major issues for us because the set came with some extra hardware, but we almost ran out of extras, so I can imagine that some people might have issues. Still five stars though!

Great customer service!

Our Lifetime playground set has withstood many a storm and 8 years later looks great and has lasted through our 5 children playing on it most days. However, our neighbor's trampoline flew into it during a recent severe storm and we needed to replace a section of roof along with a bar. They provided us the parts at a great, low cost and made sure to include extra hardware. They were extremely helpful and polite, as well.

Difficult assembly because of part not labeled

Playset is good quality and will last for years. Instructions are good with pieces identified but the actual parts are not labeled. I had to disassemble several parts and reinstall because a part was not installed in the correct direction or location.

Great Playground All Around

We bought this playground for our soon to be 3 year old. He loves it and can climb up it well. Our only complaint is although the directions were fantastic- the hardware was labeled well but not the pieces. It was hard to determine what pole went where. Other than that we will recommend this to our friends!

Kids Love it!!!

The swing set was a big hit with the grandkids. The swingset does seem to be of good quality made. But the instructions on putting it together were awful. Nothing was labeled (like the hardware) it was basically a guessing game on some parts, as to what went where and how. Since we just got it put together last week, I am giving it 4 stars for now.
