Great set, built to last!

We purchased this set to replace a wooden playset that was about 5 years old that was on the verge of falling apart. After looking at various wooden and metal playsets, I decided to spend a little extra $$ and get this, as opposed to another wooden set, and I am glad I did! We ordered online through Sam's and it was delivered in a large crate by freight company. Delivery was in a timely manner. It is packed/shipped as several large sections/assemblies that you put together. It took my husband about 5-6 hours to assemble (I helped a couple of times to hold/lineup a few larger parts when he was attaching), but everything went together well. We bought the natural/green set and it looks great in the backyard, blends in without calling to much attention to itself. I am so pleased with the QUALITY of this set. Heavy-duty metal tubing and the accessories (swings/trapeze bar/slide) are MUCH more sturdy than one that came with our previous wooden set. We have 2 boys (6&8-tall for their age) and is still a useable size for them. My guess is, by the time they "outgrow" this set, we will disassemble it and give to someone else and it will still be in great condition. If you're looking for a great, sturdy playset - this definitely fits the bill!

Very Happy

I wanted a set my teenage boys could enjoy too, and they do. Other then the obvious they also use the bars for exercising. Bought this for my daughters 4th birthday present and we love it. My handyman neighbor and his son put it together for me in about 3 hours. The only thing different I would have liked, is for there to have been an additional bar my daughter could hold on to when getting on the slide.

Better than wood!!!

I’m so happy we bought THIS swing set. I previously purchased a wood set with all the bells and whistles, unfortunately the wood didn’t hold up. So I decide to trade it it for this set..... best decision ever! From delivery to assembly the setup was an attainable process. My daughters really enjoy the monkey bars and slide. Me and my husband swing with our girls so it’s sturdy too

Great set for kids but will not outlast them

The playset is excellent for kids however, big caveat - it will rust. We had the playset for several years now and it's starting to rust and fell apart. See photos. Glad was able to find the rust before kids went on the slide deck. A little disappointment that metal has rusted, Lifetime may need to research replacing those parts with aluminium or material that can withstand elements of nature. Still giving 3 stars as there are no other comparable products on the market.

We’re sorry to hear that your playset is rusting. Earlier versions of our playsets were built with non-galvanized, powder-coated steel, but we’ve since upgraded to galvanized steel for significantly improved rust resistance and long-term durability. This change was made in direct response to customer feedback, and we’re confident it will provide a better experience for future customers. If you purchased an earlier version and are experiencing rust issues, we want to help. Please reach out to our Customer Service team so we can work with you to make this right. They can be contacted through Live Chat on our website (lifetime.com) Monday-Friday, or over the phone Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays at (800) 225-3865. They can also be reached by email at customercare@lifetime.com. Customer Service hours are from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm (MT).

Great set

I purchased this set on 06/18/13 & assembled it with the help of a neighbor on 06/29/30. Instructions were very clear. Parts & hardware fit & work perfectly. Took us about 3.5 hours to assemble - not bad for two 64 year olds in the heat & humidity of south Louisiana. The set is large, so make sure that your yard is big enough. My grandchildren will enjoy it for many years. The quality & sturdiness is top-notch!

Great purchase

Great! not too difficult to put together. Kids love it. The only problem was the shipping. They called to set up a time and didn't show up. They changed the date several times. Shipping was a mess but the swing set was worth it.

Best swing set for the money

Absolutely love this swing set. It was purchased for my daughter's first birthday gift. Only thing I can suggest is that watch out when tightly the bolts I snapped 3 and I'm not a big strong female.

My kids love it! They spend hours playing on and around it. The structure is very sturdy! It took my husband about 3-4 hrs to assemble which he did all alone. We are extremely happy with this play set.

Grandparents Joy!

The set up went smoothly. One man show except was easier to have an extra pair of hands to hold the top bars. All the holes lined up smoothly. We lost one nut in the grass, emailed Lifetime and they sent us a new one for free. Great service! Very high quality pieces, just like at a public or school park. My 10 year old granddaughter loved the monkey bar part and with a baby swing added, her 1 year old brother was able to enjoy it also. I had been looking at this swing set for over a year, when it went on sale, I knew it was time. With another granddaughter coming in July, it will get years of use.
