Very happy with this playset. The packaging and instructions were great, very orderly and clear instructions. It took 2 adults 12 hours to assemble. The hardest part is the bolts from the walls to the frame, however appreciate the way Lifetime designed it so that no bolts/nuts can cause injury. The playset is great! It is high quality, and large enough for multiple children to use at once. Only suggestion would be to stabilize the slide a bit more. Love that it's a metal frame so it doesn't have to be refinished annually like wood. Would definitely recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our family is so happy with the new playset in our backyard! The assembly itself is straightforward with the provided instructions, as long as you have some knowledge of these types of materials. We hired some help to finish the project and ensure we were handling all pieces with care. Our middle kiddo absolutely LOVES the setup and colors of the playset, although it's a castle, it's his new pirate ship! In particular, he's fascinated with the twisty slide and castle area (while we can't get his brother away from the monkey bars!!) It is definitely a larger playset that requires space but we love that the set is predominantly 'open', as opposed to being walled in and not having visibility of the kids the whole time. Lifetime have done it again with this major hit in our household!

Awesome playset! My kids love the slide and the monkey bar and the swings. Kellen came and set it up for us and did an amazing job! We love it!

This playset is awesome. We received it on a Friday afternoon, started putting it together late Friday afternoon, worked all day Saturday and Sunday through the rain (and dealing with a two year old), but were able to get it assembled before the end of the day on Sunday. Just two of us on Friday and Saturday, but had another hand on half of the day on Sunday. We were surprised that we got it done, based on other reviews and you tube videos that we watched. The parts and directions were labeled very well, which certainly contributed to the efficiency. It was a lot of work and a lot of tedious steps, but we just kept plugging away and following the directions step by step. We're so happy with this and our two year old loves it!

The video made it easy to assemble. You'll need help assembling this beast. Take your time aligning all the holes, hardware fits perfect

We bought this for Christmas, and it is a great play set, with multiple features for a lot of kids to play at once. Took three days to put together, but turned out great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received our Lifetime adventure castle with monkey bars as a review opportunity and we are so happy with this product! First, if you're hesitant with the color, don't be! The blue is very toned down & gives off a rich, expensive feel. This playground will entertain multiple kids for hours. You have monkey bars, slide, rock wall, car track, steering wheel, monkey bars, fire pole, swinging bar and swings! If you have kids younger than 3, be aware there is a drop off where the rock wall is but they do state in their description that it is for ages 3-12! There is plenty of room at the top of the castle for multiple kids. This was a concern with our previous playset. Once we received the package, we were nervous of how heavy it was but everything came labeled by which box to open first, second, third and so on. So it was very nice to break down the building throughout the week! It came with all the bolts and screws needed and again everything was very organized! Lifetime really did create an awesome playground & this mama is excited to not have to cart my kids to the local park!

My grandkids love the playset, especially the windowed playhouse on the lower level. Install was challenging - it took one person 7 hours to assembe the tube slide, and 3 people 8 hours to assemble the structures.

Overall, I'm happy with it. It's a really sturdy, heavy-duty swing set, especially for around $2,500. The slide is just okay. It moves around quite a bit when the kids go down it, but they still enjoy it. The worst part was putting it together. The paper instructions were awful—just skip them and use the YouTube videos. It took us about 14 hours, and the biggest issue was that none of the holes were drilled all the way through. We had to drill every single one ourselves, which added a ton of time. If the instructions were better and the holes were actually pre-drilled, I'd definitely give it 5 stars.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We've had it assembled for about a week and my 4 kids (ages 9.8.4.2) have been playing on it everyday since it's been up. Unfortunately one of the rock climbing grips came loose because one of the bolts became bent. I'm hoping to reach out to the company for support.
