Fantastic quality!
We got the whole lifetime playground set up about a month ago and it’s been a huge hit with my three children, ages are two, eight and nine and there’s something for everyone. The build quality is wonderful and I think the stuff is in last forever. Highly recommend!
Hours of fun!
We bought this product with a few hesitations and we were proved wrong! Our first concern was if it was going to be hard to climb up the green metal ladder for our 3yr old son and 2yr old newphew. They both can climb it great and have yet to have a fall! Second I feared they would be bored with it. I was wrong again! I was super surprised just how much they have enjoyed the little car tracks on top the platform. They take their cars out their and play for literally hours. My 6yr old girl loves it and I thought she was the one who would be easily bored with it. I have been super happy with the shade the top provides because we have no trees in our yard and thankfully it keeps them and the platform cool and out of the sun! My only complaint is the slide can get pretty hot in the summer sun! My kids like to use their water toys to water it down and go down in their swimsuits, but again it does get very hot as a caution! All in all we have been very very happy with the quailty and the fun it provides!
Park in our backyard!
We had ours installed a month ago and we couldn't be happier. That's all our two daughters want to do when they're home - play on the playset! It is extremely sturdy - even an adult can swing on it. It is flexible, too. For instance, we added a baby bucket swing and have that up more than the swinging bar, but when our girls want the swinging bar, it's a snap to switch it out. They love the tower as well. It is their new clubhouse and sit in their camp chairs and do their homework in it. We even got cars for them to play with the "road map" on top of the tower. They look forward to sleeping on top of the tower this summer. I would definitely recommend this playset to anyone.
Great investment for all ages and seasons
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The assembly went very well. I put together by myself over a period of 3 days about 2 hours each day. The assembly was so well written that my kids 14 and 10 were capable of reading them and helping me put together items without my help. This was also done mostly in the dark, as it was winter, with headlamps. I did run into some confusion with the end pieces that cover the holes. The instructions had the part label written on them while the bag had a different label written on it. And in the instructions you're looking for a series of letters that don't exist on the part. You have to pay very close attention to the bag letters which was very confusing. That cost me about 30 minutes of digging to realize what happened. Other than that I appreciate the extra screws because things get lost in the grass. And everything went together very smoothly. I was able to do it with one adult and two kids. The quality of the materials is truly top notch, solid and heavy duty. We've had big kids and teens even swing on it without budging or feeling anxious about the structural integrity. With 8 kids (ages 1-14 have used this so far!) we've had a decent amount of experience with various playsets and backyard toys. The best thing about this set is just the great variety of ages, skills, and interest that it can work with. The little ones love the lower level "play house" while the older kids love the second story. The sensory seekers and parkour star hopefuls love the swings, monkey bars and especially the trapeze bar has been a big hit. The grey and green color scheme is calming compared to the visually jarring primary color scheme used by a lot of companies, and I appreciate that. It is definitely necessary to make sure that you have an adequate flat area with enough clearance (especially if you have fence line landscaping) for the slide and swings. For this reason, It's a great feature that the panels and rock wall/slide/ladder can be changed between sides. Overall, this play is a wonderful investment for a lifetime of imagination and play for kids of nearly all ages. I could not recommend it more to families who are interested in top quality, heavy duty, play equipment.
Excellent product!
Finished building this set this morning. Great quality, excellent packaging and instructions! Husband and I, both in our 70s, put it together. It took us quite some time, but between our ages and Texas summertime heat, we took it slowly. Very pleased with the quality from start to finish.
Love it!
I bought this three years ago. My girls love it and I bought it because metal is supposed to last longer then wood. Some random metal has started to rust like on the swing chains and a small part on a support bar but lifetime has stood behind their product for that reason I am giving it 5! I love lifetime and a company that stands behind their products. I won’t buy anywhere else for my outdoor stuff.
Best pre Covid19 purchase ever
We bought this a few months ago and absolutely loved it. But with Covid19 it has been 10x more fun. I had Lifetime assemble it and was well worth the money. It is extremely sturdy and safe. My only complaint is that I wish the the slide had a bit more of a gentle ending. It tends to launch 2 year old off the bottom so we have to catch her everytime.
Who needs the park when you have this?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids are loving their new Lifetime Adventure Tower Deluxe Playset! It has all their favorite features from our local park, and it's now in our backyard! Rockwall, swings, slide, "secret base" thats two stories! They even have a little street on thr top floor to play cars on. Assembly was a little intimidating, but me and my husband did it over a two day span, with basic tools and no experience. They have a youtube video where you can watch someone build it step by step which helped a ton. My kids are very happy with it and it has enough different features to keep them occupied.
Totally worth the money
We bought this for our kids a few years ago and they still love it more than ever! The quality is great and very durable. It is a few years old and still looks new. It is definitely better than buying a wooden play set. We are thrilled with our lifetime play set. We have purchase many other products from lifetime as well and are always pleased with there quality and the enjoyment that they provide for our family. I highly recommend this product.
The last playset I hope to ever buy!
If you've ever installed a wooded playset, had to maintain and re-stain it every couple of years, and then had to uninstall it because it's deteriorated and you fear the city will arrive with CAUTION tape and CPS to keep your kids safe, you would realize what a perfectly genius idea it was for Lifetime to make these playsets. It is bigger than it seems in pictures, which is fantastic because even my 14-year old likes to sit in the top and do homework. We purchased the deluxe set with monkey bars which I highly recommend, even though my 5-year broke her arm on it 15 minutes after we set it up. (It wouldn't have broken, however, if her sister hadn't been "helping" her by holding her legs up, which prevented her from dropping nicely.) Which leads me to my next point of following their safety recommendations and setting it up in a safety zone with something other than hard ground to land on. The monkey bars are solid, tall enough for older kids to enjoy, and the main reason we purchased this set. The slide is quite zippy. Maybe hold the hand of a toddler until they get used to it, although my 20-month-old landed on her feet the first time down. I'm not saying she hasn't landed on her bum plenty of times since. She also manages the ladder by herself quite well but I do get a little worried when my other kids are impatiently following right behind her. Mostly because I...ahem... did not follow the recommended safety instructions and installed it on grass. No falls yet though. If you follow the directions it is an easy installation, all things considered. It's not a 2-3 day job you might get with an equivalent wooden set. They package the hardware in individual packs labeled for each section. There were a couple of packets where the labels were different than in the instructions but the pictures of the hardware were spot on so common sense pulls through. As a general rule, I recommend having common sense if you put anything together. Make sure you don't over-tighten the bolts that go through any of the posts; with enough force you will slightly squish the metal. Also, make sure One change we did was not to install the fireman's pole on when the instructions tell you to. The swings/monkey bar section isn't attached to the main play structure yet so it doesn't make sense to ground it when you don't have it in its final destination. It took 2 adults and 1 good intentioned 11-year old about 6-7 hours to put it together. Because we happened to have an extra slide from a previous playset that is now resting in a landfill, my husband removed one of the solid panels, drilled a couple of extra holes, and added an extra slide to our playset. Our kids love it. So if you happen to have an extra slide sitting around not pulling its weight I recommend putting it to work on this playset. Lifetime of course cannot recommend this but it works great for us.
