Fast shipment to store.. Husband and I put it together in like 10 hrs with a lot of breaks... Very sturdy and fun my kids are 2 and three and have safe fun with it. My husband did attach some extra wood to the back to give extra support so th kids won't somehow pop through the chalk wall ... It's jut a tarp back... Instructions could have been easier to understand but I hear that's always a problem.

This swing set took 5 hours for 2 people to put together. It looks great and will last my 2 year old awhile before she outgrows it. I recommend.

My parents bought this swing set for my son's second birthday. We originally considered buying a metal set, but our son really seems to enjoy play forts. We didn't have a lot of space to put it, and this met all of our criteria.

My husband did most of the assembly. He's a former industrial arts teacher and has extensive experience building things. It took him about 10 hours to build it, mostly by himself. He said that the plans weren't difficult. But there were several parts that weren't marked, and that slowed him down. Surprisingly, the chalk 'wall' was the hardest part for him. When we picked the swing set up at the store, the box was open on both ends and there was a huge gap down the center of the cardboard (it looked like someone had just wrapped cardboard around the boards and strapped it). The employees told us that all of the boxes were like that but they were confident all of the pieces were there. Unfortunately, the glider hangers were missing, and we're still waiting for them.

Our son loves it. He likes sitting at the top of the slide and rolling his cars down the slide, and he loves to swing. We haven't received the hardware to hang the glider yet, but I'm sure he'll enjoy that also.

When we purchased this, it was on sale. We also had an additional coupon that brought the price down to less than $300. It was a good value for what we paid. I'm not sure that I would have paid full price for it, because there are other swingsets for that price are sturdier.

We bought this for our grandaughter for her 4th birthday! She loves the glider and the slide! The swings do not have long enough chains so they are too high for her to swing on now. The Canvas Top, the Canvas back and the metal brackets were not packed or shipped!! My husband had to spend $40.00 for brackets so we could put the swing up. Still waiting on the Canvas to complete the swing.

Don't let these complainers fool you, for the price this is a great product. Easy to put together only took me and my father in-law 5hrs. The directions are a little tricky but if you are patient, no problem. The kids LOVE it! Like I said, for the price, it doesn't get any better than this!

Very nice staff brought the large pkg out. Needed a truck. My husband put it together all by himself; it took 10 hours. We stayed away for the day so he could concentrate. Just have to be able to follow directions and have some experience in building projects. This is for smaller children 110 lbs and under. But it is what we wanted and for the price it is a good deal. How long do kids stay interested in climbing structures anyway? It is fine.

took a while for my husband & brother in law to assemble it. there are a lot of pieces, cannot be put together by yourself. I have a toddler and a 8 month old, they love it. my toddler loves swinging on the swings and climbing up. the ABC tarp isn't a chalk board but that's alright. the sand box under is really high so I just decided to buy a sandbox on its own but it's a great swing set for the price. adults cannot sit on it, it will break and you'll hear it. hopefully it lasts for a while, its great.

Easy set up only took 2.5 hours by myself
It's not the best wood in the world but it's great for the price. My little 3 year old girl loves it.
