My 9 year old daughter absolutely loves it. Only downfall is the Assembly. Items were not marked or labeled so it took my husband and a family friend longer then it should have. But it’s better then we expected as far as quality! We live in a HIGH wind area and we knew what wouldn’t work. So far 0 issues after set up. We had a wood play structure before and HATED the staining of it to keep it looking nice and it broke within the first year. I don’t think we will have that issue with this set!

I would like to share that I am very pleased with the swing set and my kids have a blast while playing on it. It is a high quality unit and appears that it will last a long time. My only complaint was the assembly time. I spent about 8 hours on assembly, but I was by myself. I recommend two or three people for assembly. Other than that I was and have been very happy with this purchase.

The swing set is great. It is well built and sturdy. The main set is everything I could expect from it. The problems I have with this bundle is that pieces are not labeled so assembly is very difficult. I was able to figure it out because I am an Engineer, but the average Joe may struggle without the pieces being labeled. Also, I did not understand that the picnic table is a kid sized table. I thought it would be a full size table and I was going to get a deal. I was slightly disappointed when I opened the table

Platform to clubhouse came with upside “lifetime sticker attached. Also one of the framing pieces to the clubhouse platform seemed to be a duplicate rather than a opposing side piece. Everything ended up fine but did have to drill my own holes. For the price of the item I thought it was annoying how things were carelessly shipped with wrong piece and upside down “lifetime label”.

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.

This is an awesome set with many features and well designed. I am 65 and my wife is 64 and we put this together in under 8 hours. You do need a drill and all the tools they recommend. I also think the instructions could be better (we had to undo things 4 times), the graphics could be better AND the pipes and pieces should be labeled.

I bought this a week or so ago, and it arrived Thursday. I spent a few hours on Friday working on it, then 10 hours on Saturday, with just me and a little help from my wife. The instructions were great, the parts in separate bags and boxes all easy to follow. It feels solid and my 3 year old son loves it. I was a little worried about the ground I was placing it on, as it was a sand berm I had put up to control drainage near my house and wasn't very level. But this playground seemed to have some play in how it connected together and it doesn't sway or even move at all when climbing around on it. Also it feels much bigger than some of the other models I've seen in my neighbors yard. There were two minor cons. The first is the instructions for adding the net seemed ambiguous on how the right vertical support beam connected to the main frame. I looked through all my yard thinking I had lost a bolt when it turned out it was in a later part of the instructions in a different bag. The second is there were a few places where the paint had rubbed off the bars that make the restraints in the club house and one of the main beams. But I'll get some green paint and cover them. They were minor and not noticeable.

We have owned this set since 2014. While no longer perfect, the set has held up well and we have gotten our money’s worth. Our kids and the kids on the street play with it every weekend. There is a bit of rust on the chains and some bolts and joints, but the large plastic pieces have not faded. Also, Lifetime’s customer service is excellent. They stand by their products. They replaced the swings when we had issues with the rubber coating getting sticky. We are looking forward to trying the new swings, with a new silicone coating to prevent stickiness, that will be shipped to us.

Took us all day to put it together, but we love it! This was for a small church and the kids are loving it!! We are on the Oregon coast and could not use wood because we get almost 100 inches of rain each year and the wood would rot, so this playset is great!

Follow the directions closely and the set goes together very easily. The set is very sturdy. I didn't anchor it and my grandchildren swing high causing very little lifting of the legs of the swing. The issue I had was with the shipping company. The shipping company destination was only 7 miles from me. They shipped the swing across the country, but when it arrived to the shippers destination, they failed to meet the delivery date because they wanted more money to deliver it to my home even though my purchase already included delivery. Lifetime and Homedepot took care of the extra cost they wanted.
