Great Playset!

We bought this for our grandchildren. We assembled 2/3 of it the first weekend and still need to build the lower play house and connect. It was nice that you could complete to that stage (and the kids could swing, slide & get in the higher playhouse) and finish another time. Once we became more familiar with the 4 boxes of boards & hardware & got a rhythm going with the step-by-step instructions.....it went fairly smoothly. It was nice that the boards are pre-cut & holes pre-drilled...that helped a lot. This is definitely a 2-3 person job! Our 4-1/2, 1-1/2, and 7 mo old grand kids LOVE it and couldn't wait to try it out!!

Nice Size

Purchased a month ago after reviewing several swing sets. We spent two days putting it together. It wasn’t difficult, but there are so many pieces to be assembled. Our 6 and 3 year old, along with their friends enjoy this swing set. There’s plenty of room for our 6 year old to grow and play, and easily accessible by our 3 year old.

PERFECT!!

First I have to say a great big thank you to the guys from Go figure that came out and assembled this product. They worked outside the first day in 95 degree weather for 12 hours straight and then over 8 hours the next day to get the Malibu swingset assembled. The swing set is perfect. Our 7 year and 4 year old love it. Plenty of space in the club houses. Nice size sand boxes. Overall it is a blast.

Awesome Playset

I'm completely thrilled with the purchase and construction of this Malibu Playset. I loved the fact that I could order and for a little extra, get the assembly part of it. The company that provided the assembly person was amazing. Always checked to see how it was coming along and the guy that assembled it for us was such a perfectionist and did an amazing job of putting it together. It would have taken my husband and myself 3 months instead of the 3 days and this guy was all by himself. I don't have a photo to upload but it looks exactly like the one displayed in the ads. This is going to be a HUGE suprise for our grandkids when they all 4 get here in June. So very excited for them!!

Exactly as pictured

This Swing Set arrived very quickly. It took about 40 hours to put together, however it looks exactly as pictured and went together very well. Just a lot of tedious work. Its hard to have more than two people working on constructing as you only have one manual. So the system works well with one person getting supplies ready and one constructing. Once together its great, my granddaughter absolutely loves it. I would highly recommend this set. Its well worth the work.

Very Happy

I did my research and looked for a good deal on a Swing Set for my Kids. I didn't want to spend a crazy amount, but I wanted something nice. I feel like this hit it perfect. Shipping took about a week. As far as Assembling goes, I did it alone with my wife helping along the way. It took me about 4 days to work on it. Working till 7 every night and then coming home to work on caused me a few extra days to get this done. If I had 2 full days I think I could have put it together then. This is coming from someone that really doesn't have much of a Carpentry background. All of the pieces came and none of them were damaged. Instructions were very easy to follow. My advice would be to check and make sure all of the pieces are there, and you organize everything. It sucks to do at first but saves you so much time in the long run. Play some music, take your time, and double check every page carefully.

Great quality!

This is a really nice swing set! The wood is nice quality and it was pretty easy to put together. My husband and I put it together. I would get the wood and hardware together for the next page while he assembled the step before. There are a few holes you have to drill but the majority is all predrilled which makes it easier. The instructions were easy to read and not faded like some of the other reviews. It is a big set so make sure and look at the dimensions. Our son is only 2 but he really loves it. He can easily go up the small steps to the first club house, then up the steps to the large one then down the slide he goes. The slide is big so I think at first he was a little unsure, but after going down a few times he loves it.

Good Quality

My little girl loves this playset, however, I would recommend anyone buying this; go ahead and pay the professionals to install it. It took four of us a total of 15 hours to assemble it. That's 60 man hours! The instructions are great, but there are 160 pages!

Did not meet expectations

I’m currently going on 4 sessions of working on this set. the parts aren’t organized they come in 4 big boxes, the hardware comes in little bags that are poorly labeled so most of the time you’re guessing if you have the correct size screw. The quality of the wood is poor quality, extremely flexible which causes some questions about the integrity of the flooring. im sure it will look nice once I finish the last few steps. My son loves it but as a father I am sceptical. I will Probably end up adding wood to sturdy the structures and swing beam. And to add the instruction book can be very confusing at times. If I was the company I would review it and make it a little less confusing. Found myself going back 3-4 steps and redoing a step because another part wouldn’t fit the way they were originally

Grandkids love it!

We love the Malibu playset, and our grandkids love playing on it! It took my wife and me several days to complete its construction, including leveling the location and attention to detail. Instructions are usually clear, though occasionally challenging, with some steps very simple and some complex. With some hardware there is just enough, and there is also some hardware included in a packet that actually is intended for another playset model.
