Several of the pieces did not have a sufficient stamp to denote the piece number, making a lot of the process very difficult. Some pages of the instructions are not very intuitive and you don't know that you've put a piece in backwards until several steps later. Over all, the finished product is very nice and sturdy.

We bought this set a couple of weeks ago for our grandson. It took us about 8 hours to put it together. No problems what so ever with constructing the set. He has played on it everyday since we bought it. We look forward to many years of enjoyment.

My Thunder Ridge swing set came right to the door with no problem. I hired a friend to assemble for me and he was able to put it together in about 13 hours. No missing parts. 5 year old jumped on all the features and the 1 year old can open the door by himself. We are very pleased

My 4 year old and 2 year old love it! The slide is bumpy and fast so that took them getting use to and learning to slow themselves down. It took 3 men in construction about 6 hours to put together. There were a lot of pieces that could have been pre-assembled.

Poor quality materials. Broken drill bits left in product, missing and misaligned holes. After one night out in the weather numerous cracks in the wood showed up. Had to go to our local hardware store due to missing hardware. Some tee nuts were never taped ( no internal threads).

The swingset is great. It would be a good thing to tell your installation crews to haul off all the boxes and trash they make while putting it up to complete the job, but otherwise they did a good job. Having someone else install it is definitely worth the money. My 7 year old loves the mutli-level "fort" and it has been a great addition to the yard.

It took us several days to get the entire thing put together but my kids love it. The only down fall is my daughter is to short right now for the monkey bars so she can't play on them without help. Directions were very specific and easy to read just took time to get it done.

I was pretty happy with the playset. It is very tall! The instructions were nice and detailed. The only problem we had was the main platform came not sanded down well and peeling up quite a bit so we will have to sand it down and restain it. Other than that, I am happy with my purchase.

We got this a few weeks ago. This took me and my husband 13 hrs. I sorted all pieces and bolts, screws, washers, nuts, etc. If the company would construct this so it was less of 20 different sizes of each would of took a lot less time. Now I know why they charge so much to put the thing together! Also the company they used to ship it to me could not come to my house which meant I had to bet them to get two boxes of 10 ft long and about 3ft wide. Hey Sam's FedEx and UPS CAN.js I have a lot of extra screws bolt washers and etc left to buil something else so prolly can cheapen this thing and keep all those. Besides the split board I had to replace which was the main piece that holds the swings up, my daughter loves it and that's all that matters!

Kids love it. Despite it taking more then the 10 hours it stated to put together the kids are throughly enjoying it. The wood could be higher quality. We were happy how each piece was nicely stamped when assembling it
