Strongest swing set I have ever seen outside of a

We bought this set for our grandchildren and they love it. It took my husband and I about 5 hours to put it together. We took a lot of water breaks because it was hot and humid that day, so it took us a while. I was very impressed with the packaging of the hardware. It was labeled well for each section. All the  sections fit together perfectly ! I would highly recommend  this swing set to anyone looking for quality and performance!

Perfect for our grandkids!

We love the durability of this product.  Our grandkids are on it every time they come over.  6 grandkids ages 3-10.  Fireman's pole is a big hit with the 5 year olds.  The 7 and 10 year old love the monkey bars.  They all love the slide, swings and trapeze!  Couldn't be more pleased! Thanks Lifetime!

Great swing set, tricky and difficult bolts

The swing set was delivered quickly. It is shipped in three big boxes along with the slide which were all combined together in one large crate. (It is unlikely that two people can lift or move the crate without a handtruck or lift device.) I am impressed with the design and craftsmanship. Only one pre-drilled hole didn't match and had to be re-drilled. Assembly went quickly and the instructions are good. Uncrate, un-box, assemble, leveling - all took only about 7.5 hours (3.5 hours two people after sundown, 4 hours one person). THE MOST TROUBLESOME PART OF ASSEMBLY. The shoulder bolt and barrel nuts are good because the heads are smooth and kid friendly. But they are the most difficult part of the assembly. Eventually you get the knack of inserting the barrel nut and then probing for the nut with the bolt until the threads catch, but it takes practice (all this happens inside the pipe where you can't see). You tighten them with two 7/16 allen wrenches (supplied) but the wrenches will cut into your bare hands (get some gloves) because tightening the bolts is so difficult. The reason the bolts are so difficult is a portion of the threads are coated with a chemical lock to ensure a tight fit (good planning). However, the substance was so think on 50% of the bolts they couldn't be completely tightened. Eventually I learned to pre-thread and tighten the nut, then loosen, brush away the chemical, and tighten again. I repeated these steps over and over until I could completely tighten the bolt. Only then I would insert it in the swing set to thread and tighten down. (Twice the work.) Cool surprise features: rubbery tube-like hand grips around the swing chains, plastic foot-caps for the bottom of all the poles, end caps for all exposed ends, cast pendulum assemblies for all swings, big pieces were welded together so assembly was limited to hooking all big pieces together. Well, you can tell I am fan. Children love it!

Great Quality

I purchased this swing set for my two boys. It is PERFECT. It took two people only about 3 hours to set-up! Granted, the people doing the setting up are pretty handy people, but I still expected it to take longer. It is very solid. I researched many swing sets and this one appears to be the closest thing you can get to the heavy duty equipment you see on playgrounds. We easily attached a baby swing for my 6 month old (taking the swings off and on is a breeze!). We love it and look forward to using it for years to come.

Great product!

What a great top notch swingset for a decent price to last years. Similar quality to a city park and pretty simple to assemble instructions were good, give yourself some adequate time to assemble, 3 allen wrenchs are included.Some advice spray the screws with a oil spray before screwing them it will help out tremendosly ,all the screws strong quality with coated paint on them .Good Investment.My 3 Kids jumped on it the second I was done.

Well built but......

The plastic covering the chains is sticky and leaves a residue on hands. It's gross and my set is not even a year old.

Perfect Set

We love the quality of this set! My husband and I can both swing on the swings, the bars and swings feel strong and have a nice coating. My husband put it together himself with a little help from me, and the instructions were understandable. We love the color and versatility of several activities in just one set. Love it!!

Very strong design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this swing set for my daughter and her neighborhood friends a month before the cat 4 hurricane in Cape Coral fl. I added an extra anchor but the 155MPH proved to much for the anchor. When the swing set flipped it only damage it received was on the two leg at the connection bracket. I hope to purchase some replacement parts.
