Bought this for the grandkids a couple months back, after shopping a bit no doubt there were cheaper brands available None had the duarablity features and the detail to children that this one. We are not afraid that they will get injured on a rusty screw. The colors are bright and beautiful so eben the adults can kick back and truly enjoy the scnery and the kids, making liftime memories with a LIFETIME product! Thank U!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Put this together a month ago on my own, with a little help on a couple of the steps. All together took about 4-5 hours to put it up, including time to level the ground, etc. The kiddos are loving it and appears that it will hold up to the NW elements much better than our neighbors rotting wood playset

I bought this about 3 months ago and my two kids love it. all the neighbor kids come over and play on it as it definitely is intriguing to lots of different age ranges. It took about nine hours for us to set up on our own. Even though we just set up my mom's smaller one without the hut a few days before. We had friends and are pretty handy. some of the holes did not line up on the climbing rock feature but it worked. I swing on it a lot as well at 215 pounds plus a kid or two and it holds up great. The hut is the highlight. Although the wheel already stopped making noise. So 4 stars for that, the miss aliment and the install time.

This playset is very good quality. I have a few concerns about safety. First my grandchild just about fell over the edge onto his head as he slipped at the top of the ladder by the climbing wall. With no protection there to catch him thankfully my daughter was close and caught him . I asked if I could buy a railing like the one beside the slide to put there to prevent a fall but I was told no . 2) the ladder going up to the covered in part is very slippery and wide apart rungs . Another grandchild was climbing up and her boot slipped and she fell straight through hitting her head and nose. Thankfully no teeth . I would like to see solid plastic steps made to replace the railings . Otherwise it is a good product .

Just got through putting this together. It is an awesome high quality set. Unfortunate the directions are horribly illustrated and not a single piece is numbered save for the hardware. The instructions issue has been addressed In many other reviews so I knew it going in, but I think they could be THAT bad. They were. Lifetime, you make a high quality product. Please make high quality instructions for your customers and spend the extra dollar a set to put a sticker on each part

Pros:Sturdy,Weather Resistant,Attractive Design,Easy Assembly,Durable,Hours of Fun Best Uses:Older Children,Group Play,Small Children,Individual Play Describe Yourself:Parent Of Two Or More Children Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. This swing set is awesome...we live in the desert and I didn't want a wood set that had to be maintained. This is so nice!!! The kids love it, as well as adults. Sturdy enough for dad to swing with his little girls :-)

We love this lifetime play-set! The assembly was not super complicated but was definitely time consuming- we went slow to be sure we did each step correctly, and a few times we had to back track, but thanks to a careful pace we didn’t have to do that often and didn’t have to undo very much at all. The instructions seemed easy to follow, but we also found a video on YouTube showing the assembly, and this helped us as we are visual learners. All the pieces and parts came without harm, every bolt and screw we needed was included, you will need a drill to complete this project if you do it on our own. The play-set once completed is tall, it includes a rope ladder, a “rock” climbing wall, a metal ladder, a slide, a platform that all of those lead to, and swings. Two seat swings and one hanging swing, with handles. The swings are attached by thick carabiners, so if you wanted to swap them out with a baby swing or something like that, it would be simple to do and secure. Everything is supported well, and we as adults have used the swings and didn’t move the play-set. Though maybe we could have if we had a “who can swing higher” competition ;). And since our children are little we walked through how to go up and down both the rope ladder and metal ladder, as well as the climbing wall, so that we didn’t worry about them doing so on their own. The pictures attached show the main frame of the player with the ladders and slide: what we were able to assemble on a Saturday, and then the others show it completed, which was finished on two different weeknights. As we said before, assembly was simple but definitely time consuming. Our kids absolutely love it and it has made going outside way more appealing, though you may be stuck as a swing pusher if you get it ;). This makes the warmer days so much more fun, and way better than the kids begging for show after show! (Hallelujah!) We would recommend this to anyone; our children are under 5, and I’m glad we got something that they can enjoy now and still enjoy when they’re older. We have relatives with a similar model, and their 10 and 12 year old kids enjoy swinging and playing too! And with its high quality metal structure and other materials, we foresee it lasting for decades!

My family joked during the last severe Texas storm that we should have parked our cars underneath the playset for protection. It's built like a tank. Lots of thought and detail, like the impressions in the underside of the roof (for strength, I assume) are stars. Pretty great fit and finish - no obvious gaps, good paint job, etc. My only "complaint" is it took about three afternoons to put together. We've only had it a couple of months, so longevity is TBD, but we're quite happy and would recommend it so far.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We decided to splurge and go with this playset rather than the wood style. We bought it more than 5 years ago, and it looks as good as the day it was assembled. Awesome product, with the money for sure!!

My dog chewed up one of the pieces as I was putting our set together in the yard and so much that it was demolished beyond repair. Very frustrating... but I called lifetime and they were happy to help and sent me the piece. Will be referring this brand to friends in the future.
