I put most of this together myself, and had all the major large pieces ready for my husband and I to do together. Instruction manual was super easy to follow. Only one little hiccup but was operator error im sure 😊. The quality of this swing set is amazing! Very top notch.

I selected this as a Christmas present for three of my grandchildren, the youngest of which is 6 months old. I wanted something that would last and had enough swings and other features to accommodate and entertain all 3 of them at the same time. I was impressed by not only the features but also the product description, as it sounded like it would withstand the test of time and could be easily relocated if they were to move. I was not disappointed in any respect (and I had a great day with my son-in-law, putting it together). Assembly was easy and straightforward (the anchors are a bit of a challenge to get into the ground) and the kids just went crazy when we announced that the swing was ready for business. Their joy was the kind that made for one of those great Christmas moments.

Forget the forts !! Forget spending thousands of dollars !! They grow out of the fort thing so fast and it just sits there getting unused. We've had this set now 2 summers. All my grand daughters friends want to come to our yard because of this set. To say they love it would be an understatement. So so happy we decided on this set instead of an expensive fort swing slide combo type set. The girls are all around 8 and they could care less about a fort. This set is complimented by a trampoline i bought from Wal Mart too, it was on sale and couldnt pass it up. I sit in my chair with my coffee and watch them have sooooo much fun. I am sure we will have this set for a long long time. Even the friends older siblings come over and love it too. My wife and i are in our 70's and we take a seat on the swings too. This set is super sturdy ! Easy to clean ! And most of all its a huge hit. Best set ever, and very very easy to put together. I put this set together by myself just following the video instructions by the company, which were excellent too. I needed my wife for like 10 seconds to hold the one piece while i finished putting main section slide in, THAT IS IT !! So worth the money. Love the way its constructed too, so sturdy and strong. Before i let the kids play on it i got on the inside swing and went as hard and high as i could, not a problem. So i know this will be loved by kids of all ages. I can see my gran daughter using this into her tweens and teen yrs. Great great set.

Bought this for grandkids, was extremely pleased with the sturdiness, quality and design! Easy to assemble as well, great instructions, and very fair price for this great swingset. We had the delivery company put it on our truck, and then husband drove the truck to the back yard. As adults we love to swing too, and it is sturdy enough for that. LIFETIME did this right all the way!

We had a family day today putting it together. It only took 2 hours with 3 men. My husband was impressed because he really thought it would take all day. The only thing he found wrong with it, is the bolts are what he calls “soft” and said if we ever had to take it down, they would more than likely break off. Not planning on taking it down anytime soon though. Grandkids had a ball on it!

This swing set is just right! My husband, dad and brother-in-law got this swing up and ready for our little ones to enjoy in about 2.5 hours. It is well made and doesn't feel or look cheap. It took a lot of research and consideration for us to move away from a wooden swing set, but after seeing this in our backyard any reservations are completely gone. We noticed some reviews talked about needing different bolts and we were prepared to go get more however we never encountered any issues. It went together without a single hiccup or need for a trip to a local home improvement box store. Our little ones squealed and were swinging late into the summer evening which I am sure they'll do many days to come!

We bought the Monkey Bar Adventure Swing Set (Earthtone) at the end of March and got it delivered mid-April. I am trying to capture my experience as a whole hoping it will help whoever is still deciding on this. Ordering (5 stars): We ordered directly from Lifetime's site and the ordering was very straight forward. Received a confirmation email with the order number and other details right after. Shipping (4.5 stars): It did take about 10 business days for the order to ship. So don't get discouraged if you don't receive the shipping notification as soon as you order it. Once the item was shipped, we received a tracking number with the name of the shipping company. I tracked the order everyday and it showed a earliest delivery date on the site. I called the shipping company and they told me to contact the residential delivery team as they usually hand it over to them. I called the residential delivery team two days later and was able to schedule the delivery the next available date. This entire process however moved the delivery date by 5 days from the date shown on the tracking site. I was in a hurry as this was to be a birthday gift for our 6 year old and wanted to get it installed before. Delivery(5 stars): The playset was delivered right on time on the agreed date. There were thre long boxes and the slide neatly packed on the pallet. The driver was kind enough to place it close to the garage. I was able to slide the boxes out of the pallet by myself and there were no visible damages to any of them. Installation (5 stars): I did almost all of the steps myself ( 5'9 - 180 lb) with my wife's help towards the end. All the materials were nicely packed and labeled. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I laid out the parts next to the installation site and followed the instructions very carefully. I only used hand tools (the two Allen keys it came with) and tried very hard to not to over-tighten the bolts. However I did slightly over-tighten the Monkey bar tubes and I could see that the bolt was pushing the tube in. This made the end cap installation very difficult as the end of those bars weren't round anymore. But with a rubber mallet I was able to push the end caps in its place. Some helpful hints if you are not already aware. ** Do not use power tools unless it is necessary. ** Please do not fully tighten the bolts unless the instructions call for it , or after the complete installation. ** There are no spare nuts or bolts , so keep them safe ** I had two bolts break on me during the installation and luckily I was able to use the nuts from the fire pole accessory pack and did not install the fire pole (ordered the parts and waiting for it to be delivered) ** The playset needs to be on a levelled lot when you attach the swing bar to the monkey bar assembly. The holes wont line up if they are not. I end up using some lumbar and folded cardboard to level the two parts and then put the screws in. Quality (5 stars): This is a very durable playset. Though it was a little concerning to see the tubes bending a little when you overtighten the bolts but they are heavy enough already and making them even heavier will drive the cost up. However this also proved that the bolts are as strong as the set and will hold things in place without a doubt. There was no visible scratches on the paint but I did see some discoloration here are there. I have asked for the touch up paint and planning to cover the area when I have them. With proper maintenance, I have no doubt this set will last for years to come. Support (5 stars): As two of the bolts broke during the installation, I had emailed the support email address requesting replacement parts. After waiting for a couple of days , decided to use the chat feature and "Kyle" was kind enough to help me order the parts and the touch up paint that I needed. I am not sure when it will be delivered yet but when it does, I am looking to set up the pole right away. Overall - 5 Stars - Our boys (6 and 3 and a half) have loads of fun on this set and it is slim enough to not to make our yard to look like a commercial playground. We are spending a lot of time on this playset and so are the kids from our street. Thank you Lifetime !

We have a 2, 3 and 5 year old. The swings are great for the little ones. I do wish they would make them further apart. The 2 year old has a hard time getting up the slide stairs because there are no handles to help her get up. The other 2 had an issue adjusting, but are pretty used to it now. It is 9 feet so, a little high, but really fun. I would say this swing set is more for 5 years and up. Within 2 weeks of having it, my 5 year old could get across the monkey bars. We did not have to anchor it. It is very sturdy and very well made. The kids who come over love it too. It's a winner in our yard! They play on it everyday. We did have issues with delivery because the semi weighed too much, so I had to get a truck to go pick it up. It was packed well in a wooden crate. It hung out of the pickup, but it was heavy enough to stay put. (435lbs).

Very nice set and it is well built. Had 3 guys that are remodelers put it together in about two hours. Had a bolt missing but we happened to have one that would work. My granddaughters are 7 & 4 and it is a good set for them. Would have given it 5 stars but the price was a little high.

We decided to move the swing set and took it down in 3 pieces, however we didn’t take the legs off the swing side. Going through the gate one of the poles bent as it got caught on our gate. The set is 8 yrs old and without the manual I can’t order a new leg. The ones now are two pieces, we’re mine is a one piece pole in earth tone. Do you think it’s still safe for them to swing on now?
