  • Multiple Issues (see pictures)
Updated Review: The manufacturer's customer service was AMAZING! They wasted no time sending the replacement parts and took care of us fast. I highly recommend this manufacturer and products. First Review: Amazon requires the entire swing set be returned for the attached issues. I reached out directly to the customer service of the manufacturer and I'm waiting for a reply. The customer service person from the phone said they will send replacement parts with picture proof of issues. Multiple prices cracked/split, multiple unsafe wood knot holes my child could get hurt on, "mold" and missing paint on a few pieces and the slide has two areas of damage my child could get hurt on. To be honest if the damaged pieces are replaced, I would recommend this swing set, as it is a good price for what it is however, a picture is worth a thousand words. I will update my review if the manufacturer replaces parts like the customer service person said they would with the pictures I sent. The instructions were easy to read but, building the outside balcony before the inside floor made it difficult to build the inside floor. ... show more

  • Great Purchase, AMAZING Customer Service
I don’t normally write reviews but this company just blew me away so here we go. We got this play set a little over a month ago. My husband put it together with occasional help from my father in law. Construction is definitely tough, don’t get myeloma wrong. I would suggest a team of 3 or 4 people if you plan on getting it done very fast. Definitely lay everything out in an ORGANIZED way and go little by little. Don’t try to rush it. It looks stunning. Our boys absolutely love it. We ordered baby swings because they are still toddlers and they look great. First issue: one piece was missing and one piece was cracked upon arrival. I called customer service, let them know our problems and they sent replacements over to us. Easy process, no charges, no complaints. But that isn’t the amazing part. I would expect that from any company. The amazing part is this: About 4 weeks after it was built, we were hit by an unusually bad storm for our area. Winds were unlike anything I had ever seen and I’ve lived in this area my whole life - after the storm there were trees down, property damage, etc. The wind also picked the entire play set up and knocked it on its back. The top part of the set was pretty banged up. About 20 pieces were damaged and needed to be replaced. The bottom half was (shockingly) in perfect condition. We were pretty upset about an unanticipated additional cost but we were resigned to ordering replacements because our kids love it so much. Well, to my amazement, my husband just called the company to order replacements and they are shipping ALL of the replacement pieces that we need 100% FREE OF CHARGE. Both of us were shocked and SO appreciative. I was already loving the set but the company went above what was needed to help us out without us even asking them to. I couldn’t be happier. For the customer service alone, I would say find a set you like from them and purchase away. ... show more

  • Well-Designed with Good Instructions - Son Loves It
My son loves his new fort! I initially contemplated designing (or finding plans for) a playground myself and sourcing materials from hardware stores. Ultimately, I'm glad I purchased this instead for a few reasons: - Time to complete: Took somewhere in the neighborhood of 4 days, working intermittently (not 4 eight hour days). As other reviewers have mentioned, removing and sorting your pieces from each carton ahead of time will save you time in the long run. I decided to try to do this in a hybrid way (sorting some and leaving others in the boxes. This meant at times I was spending 15-20 minutes looking for the next piece. Once I organized the pieces, I was able to pick up the pace. - Easy-to-use hardware: rather than relying exclusively on carriage bolts and nuts, this kit has the correct length fasteners and countersinks to provide solid clamping without worrying about excess length to hurt someone. - General design and aesthetics: The two-tone finish is certainly nice as well as a few other touches like the shingled roof and tunnel. Trying to do this with hardware store lumber would be an endeavor not worth the time. Even some smaller items like a bench on the bottom are things that I either would not have thought of or would've skipped if I had done this on my own. - Packaging and delivery: As much as I enjoy running to the hardware store 18 times per project, ordering this meant ZERO trips. I was expecting some broken pieces from the shipping process, but was pleasantly surprised when everything arrived in good condition. Overall, while certainly more expensive than sourcing yourself, this is more pleasing to see in the yard and saved me countless hours (perhaps weeks) of building (and even more time from my wife asking when it would be done). I would like to have seen thicker wood used on the planking (and can always upgrade this with a few Trex boards or something similar). Overall, strength and stability appears to be good though. I would purchase again, especially as much as my son loves to play on the features of this set. ... show more

  • Couldn’t really ask for anything more
Hard to believe you can find a full playset on Amazon. While my experience is probably closer to 4 stars, I don’t think this massive of an undertaking could ever be perfect. Therefore I’m giving it 5 stars because it did exceed expectations. It arrived in four GIANT boxes and the swing separately. I spent about 90 minutes inventorying everything. Nothing was missing. A few pieces had mild cracks but I didn’t feel like waiting to build it and getting them replaced. The lumber seems to be high quality but light. At first I was nervous it would be flimsy but the final product is very sturdy. It held me, my wife, and my two year old son on the second level without budging. My wife painted everything but the roof and floor. I assembled 99% of it on my own. I know my way around tools but I’m no expert. It took about 3 days total. It’s a lot of pieces and a lot of steps but the manual was surprisingly clear. I was very happy with the instructions. I only had to redo a few steps that I did wrong. Pay careful attention to the orientation of complex pieces. The hardware is surprisingly good as well. I can’t speak to the quality of the metal itself but the whole thing feels quadruple reenforced at every joint. I was nervous it would feel too small but it feels good overall. Adults fit in the swings. I’m 6’0ā€. The tunnel is very tight for me but I can sit on the second level comfortably with my son. My son absolutely loves it. It’s impossible to pry him off. Overall I’m very satisfied and just wish it wasn’t 95deg on the days I built it. ... show more

  • Thumbs up- edited to say thumbs down
Kids love it! It took two adults about 5 days to put it together. No issues assembling it, but it did take awhile as there are many parts. It arrived in four huge boxes and the slide wrapped separately by semi. We had a lot of extra pieces, but I’m not complaining because we had no missing parts! It’s huge and the kids have a lot of fun on it! It’s a great price and great quality. Swings have held my husband and I with no issues. We weight about 320 pounds altogether. Came back to update review. We’ve had it less than a year and it is crumbling. We have it cemented to the ground with mobile home anchors on leveled land and it’s still leaning. The wood it’s made out of is cheap hollow particle board and blows away in 20mph wind. We have mild storms and it seems it’s unable to handle the slightest rain storm and wind. It’s a very delicate toy for it being made for outdoors. Going back, I would not purchase and would spend my money elsewhere. ... show more

  • The best possible tree/Playhouse I could’ve gotten my son!
I looked for an incredibly long time to find a great play house with all the bells and whistles for my son. Ultimately I decided on this one and I can’t even begin to tell you how thrilled I am. It’s beautiful, extremely sturdy and safe. The main complaint on this is the overwhelming time it takes to actually build it… I would definitely spend a few extra bucks to have someone assemble it for you, if your interested in saving time and your sanity. I took my husband and my sonā€˜s godfather, both very handy and strong men, approximately three full eight-hour days to complete it. The coolest part by far is how absolutely amazing the customer services. The unbelievably huge boxes arrived a few days before we were set to start building it and we quickly noticed that there was a very large missing board. Basically, we couldn’t continue to build it without this piece. My husband made one quick called customer service and explain to her that this was for my sonā€˜s birthday which is coming up soon and we’re really hoping to get it built by then. The absolutely lovely woman he spoke with did us an incredibly huge solid and overnighted the board so that we could resume work the following day. She definitely didn’t have to do that and it was really sweet and kind for her to be so considerate… We definitely have been able to build it before my son’s birthday and he is absolutely in love! I’m in love too, if I do say so myself… It’s the place/treehouse that every little kid dreams of. Next step is putting on some super cute little solar porch lights and getting a cool plaque as well as some furniture :) 5/5 all around! ... show more

  • Upfront Prep and Organization a Must!
We assembled this swing set this past weekend. It took us approximately 15 hours. My husband thought it was well engineered and the instructions were easy to follow. HOWEVER, I would like to pass on some advise that helped us keep our sanity. Do your homework before starting to assemble. The wood pieces come in four boxes in no logical order. You will receive a table of contents sheet for each box. We assigned each box a color, then highlighted the pieces for each assembly step with the appropriate box color. You get two sets of instructions, highlight both sets. Make sure when you unload the boxes, keep all the box content together. Optimal set up - at least 3 people, two cordless drills ( with extra batteries); multiple measuring tapes, marker or pen and zip lock sandwich bags. Two people can start construction while one person pulls the parts and hardware (zip lock bag) for each step and lays them out in piles in step order. A measuring tape is essential for the person pulling the parts as the alpha-numeric codes on the pieces with dark stain are not or barely visible. Once identified write the code on the part for the builders. Trust me the upfront work will payoff big time! I am sure there is an even better method for assembly, but this worked for us. We were missing a few nonessential parts and I dealt directly with the manufacturer, their customer service was great. They FedEx-ed me the parts and I had them the next day. Finished product is awesome and our grand-daughter loves it! ... show more

  • Totally worth it!
Awesome playset, my kids love it..it came in 4 boxes, all the the pieces are overwhelming but once you lay them out in the letter groups, it makes it much better. We did have 2 pieces that where warped and snapped when we tried to use them, we called the company and they sent to replacement pieces with no problems and overnighted them on top of that. It took about a week to put it together after work, about 12 hours total. Some of the directions where a pain to understand but overall it wasn't horrible. ... show more
