Great quality and withstands Windstorms

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had this playset in our backyard for about 6 months now. My kids love playing on this. It will be nice when my littlest daughter will be able to climb the ladder more skillfully (she is 18 months.) My only complaint so far is that it's not incredibly little kid friendly. Next summer will be a lot better for her to be climbing the ladder and rock wall. The materials seem like they will last for ever. The area we live in can get very windy. We have had a couple really bad windstorms and it didn't even budge which is awesome! A lot of trampolines will fly down the neighborhood causing damage, which is one of the reasons we decided to forgo a trampoline and purchase a swing set.

Solid High Quality Product

We bought this for our two children and after reading up on different review we decided on this one. All the parts were there, the instructions were easy to read, and it came just when they said it would on a single massive pallet. It took us a total 3 days to get it together but that was with our normal morning preschool running around and early bed times. It was fun! No fighting or throwing tools, just make sure you read the instructions and do it exactly as it tells you to. There is a reason behind the sequence given in the instructions. It looks great, its solid... the only problem is... my 2 year old also has a problem getting onto the upper deck do to the gap because he's not quite there yet with gripping the outer rail instead of the rungs. We fixed this with some plastic mesh and zip ties but he'll grow into it. I can see my children using this product for a very long time and it was worth the price and the work setting it up. It is way more sturdy than the wooden set we sold with our last house.

Grandkids are in heaven!

We bought this set for our grandkids. Nana and Papa put it together (need epsom salts, pain reliever and icy hot)…FYI…get some younger folks to help. Here are a few tips we found that might make your life easier…#1 Make sure you get the tower support together correctly….read the instructions …watch the video and then do it again. If you have that tower support (looks like a large stop sign) put together correctly….everything should go together well (somehow we got ours wrong and we did have dimples facing down as per instruction..but we figured it out) Just make sure you look it all over good, even go so far as to have another set of eyes look it over and insure that it is all correct before proceeding. #2 make sure you orient yourself with the pics in the manual and how you currently have the swing set up….makes a huge difference. ours went up opposite manual. #3 Make sure you have 3-4 people to help with the tower roof, particularly if you try to put this up with any kind of wind. #4 Can't stress this enough….verify the hardware needed / locate it / verify again. Most of the instructions were pretty good…all hardware were clearly marked….the videos were very helpful. After all was said and done….seeing the smiles on the kids faces made it all worthwhile….would I buy again? YEP in a heartbeat. Ask us later if we would put it up again ourselves :) We are still recovering

Great Playset

I bought this to replace a wooden playset that got destroyed in the hail storms. This thing is solid and sturdy. The plastic doesn't get as hot as you would think in the sun but the metal poles get very hot. The only issue was the install. I decided to pick this up in store and put it together myself. Make sure you have 2 or 3 people. There are some parts that are long, heavy, or cumbersome. A few extra sets of hands comes in handy. Make sure you read the instructions before you start each stage and follow them, it will help. The use of the button fasteners and long bolts make it where there aren't any sharp ends where kids can get cut but it makes for a longer assembly time. I say buy it and put it together yourself if you have 8 hours to spare.

Great Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought the tower for our grandchildren. We are thrilled with the purchase. I was suprised by the reviews stating that you need 3 or more people to build it. Not the case at all, it took me about 10 1/2 hours to build. 90% of which I did solo. My wife helped with some steps where another set of hands helped tightening bolts. The instructions were clear and you should take time to read them before starting. I also checked out some videos on YouTube which were helpful. The key is keeping the process orderly and not get overwhelmed with the instructions. It's just like reading a book, start at page one and proceed one page at a time. I would also like to mention the great support from Lifetime I experienced.There was one bracket missing from the boxes. I emailed the company and was pleasantly surprised with the response. The part was shipped out immediately and I had it in a few days. Overall we are pleased with the Tower and would recommend it. We also purchased a Lifetime Geo Dome. Same quality as the Tower.

Don't waste your money

We purchased this playset Nov 2017 and had it in storage until our home which was under construction was completed in June 2018. The playset was assembled at our new home in June 2018. Initially we were very happy and the kids loved it. However, it has been up for 16 months now and will have to be junked. Poles have rusted completely through. I contacted "lifetime" and I was informed "lifetime" does not warranty rust.

Great features and built very well

I bought and self assembled this set a couple of months ago. It is built very well with quality components; sturdier than I expected. The assembly took me a weekend and it was a little challenging at times and I am not a novice. I have numerous power tools that made the job easier and quicker, but I also did it alone. Ideally its a 2 person job for one entire day. It is a great playset that should last for at least 15+ years. My three kids ages 2, 9 and 12 love it and have thoroughly put it to the test. We had a dozen kids of various ages all over it 2 weeks ago for a birthday party and it held up well - not a scratch. The playset is sturdy enough to hold me and my wife too. I highly recommend this playset; its an especially great value at under $1,000 (I'd even pay $1,500 for it).

Son loves it. Couldn't ask for better quality.

When the crate was delivered I was a little set back on how many pieces. However, the directions were easy to follow and with the help of my girlfriend we were able to put the set together over the weekend. When son came around the corner of the house to the back yard he made a bee line to the swings and had a grand time. We are very happy with the set and to see such a smile on our son is well worth the weekend work of putting it together.

My Grandkids Love This!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the Adventure Tower Play set six months ago. My grandkids love it. I put it by our pool so they can slide down the slide into the pool. They have a ball with it. We live in Arizona so I installed a mister system on it. It keeps it cool so they can play in the heat of the day. When they are done playing the tower holds their pool toys. I'm so happy I bought this. I would highly recommend this play set. Instructions for assembly were easy to follow. I am a Grandmother...my son and I put it together.

The answer to all your kids woes!

This playground has been a life saver! With a home surrounded by nothing but dirt, no fences, and construction, we needed something for our kids to do outside. This playground was our answer for it all! The metal and plastic is sturdy and holds up well against all the wind and dirt, not to mention my roudy kids. I also highly recommend springing for the install. They came and put it together in about 4.5 hours and did a great job; much more preferable to the headache and 2plus days to get it done.
