Very happy with the final product! Only suggestion is be very careful when following instructions that our board orientations are correct. For the company, please identify correct orientation more clearly. Especially on the main 4x4s. I actually reversed 2 of them so the screw holes were on the wrong side. I didn't realize those holes were there.

We have had this set for about 5 months now and are absolutely in love with it! Seriously impressed with the size and quality in relation to the price; we did a lot of research before buying and didn't find anything that would nearly compare to this set from Backyard Discovery. Kids love it and it keeps them entertained for hours. Will grow with them too and continue to keep them entertained as they get older. Mom and dad kind of enjoy playing on it too :) Will probably just add a blackboard on the wall of the upper level for our girls this summer.

Extremely pleased with this play set! All of the materials seem very high quality and everything was delivered about a week after ordering. I was easily able to put this thing together in 2 days by myself. Just follow the instructions and you’ll put this thing together no problem. The only suggestion I have for anyone putting this together themself would be to buy one cedar 2x4x10 board and cut it into two extra floor joists (part E01 page 10) for the fort decking. Adding those makes the floor super sturdy for adults to get inside the fort with their kids. The play set is totally fine without it for kids to stand on it but if you have toddlers and feel like you should be up there with them then I’d definitely recommend adding them.

Our kids & the neighbors’ kids LOVE this set. The set keeps them totally engaged and I love that they’re practicing their climbing skills on it too! I ordered our playset and received it very quickly which was amazing. The delivery crew was excellent and placed it in our garage for us upon request. We timed it perfectly because two days after receiving it, it was set up in our yard by a company we hired (that Backyard Discovery recommends on their website. Their service was EXCELLENT/friendly/professional/quick setup, btw). As they were packing up, our kids were running out to use it and played until sunset on their new set. I should also mention I had a question about something with the set, and their customer service was excellent when I called which is always appreciated. Love this set so much, it looks pretty in our yard (always a bonus haha) and love the smell of fresh cedar each time we go out to play. Highly recommend!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this set Spring of 2023 and although it's only November, there are several things that are already showing wear. Some of the boards have cracked where the screws went in, a board has separated (like it was pressed wood and the top layer is peeling away), the black on the roof is already coming off, etc... The wood is soft and dents or chips very easily. Also, there's a space that's far too big between the last step and the floor of the set. We had to add a board across the top of the ladder to stop a child from going through, which almost happened more than once but fortunately someone was there to catch him. I expected more for the price, especially since we had our last playset for over 20 years.

We purchased this swings about a month and a half ago, and it has been exactly what we were looking for. My oldest is almost nine, and then I have a 5-year-old and a baby, and it's just the right size for all of them to be able to enjoy it in some way. The table is such a fun bonus -- they love having their lunch out there!

I was a bit on edge ordering a play set online without seeing it in person, but the reviews online made me feel better about buying. I can tell you it was a purchase well made! It arrived earlier than expected and in 3 large boxes and the slide wrapped in plastic. It was a lot of work putting together however the instructions were VERY well done and easy to follow. Everything was well labeled and they even used the Bilt app so you could see 3d renderings of everystep. It was honestly one of the most well labeled and easy to use instructions I have ever seen in any product. The quality is excellent, all cedar wood and all the holes were predrilled. I used a Graco airless sprayer and used Seal Once clear sealer to seal the wood. My only one complaint is that the beam to hold the swings is not long enough. The swings are a bit too close together, but honestly other than that it's fantastic.

Three adults set this up in 8 hours with no problems. The only improvement we would make is a little better support for the "floor". It's great for targeted age range, but we were a little nervous working on the build above it. Overall-good value for the money. Our grandchildren love their "playground"!

We purchased and assembled over a weekend. It took 2 people about a day and a half to assemble. If you follow the instructions, it should be no problem. Sort everything ahead of time and pre-read and read the directions. Very easy to follow step by step setup. The grandkids love it!

Got this play set for our daughter for her 7th birthday , and it turned out exactly as we expected . So much for her to do on this one ! My husband pretty much put it together by himself in 1 weekend . The shipping company did forget the slide , but they brought it the next day.
