Backyard Discovery Mount Mckinley Cedar Wood Swing Set with Wave Slide, Play Deck, Double Rock Wall, Rope Ladder, Web Swing, Belt Swings, Toy Telescope, Steering Wheel, Sandbox Area, Outdoor Playset

Very sturdy and great quality material. Took about 4.5 hours to assemble with 3 people. Only downside is that you will have to seal the wood yourself.

This thing takes easily 8-10 hours to build. All the wood is labeled, which makes it easy to identify what needs to go where. Plenty of extra hardware. The wood is perfect for the kiddos who get to play one it. It even supported my 210lbs to get the higher up pieces together. Good looking wood grain color. I got this for my daughter as an early birthday present, and she absolutely loves it. She's all over it and constantly jumping from one thing to the next. She's had so much fun playing on it. The hours of labor really made it worth while to see her big smile. I assembled it by myself, but it would go faster with more people, not to mention power tools. Can't wait for the family friends and their kids to come play on it. The instructions were a little confusing at times, so take your time when you're building it and have a table set out with everything on it. Everything is labeled. Well worth the money. Just time consuming to build.

So to start, I am almost finished putting it together. I may update a picture after it's completely done. I would have given it 5 stars, except some places did not have predrilled holes like they should have, and some of the predrilled holes were drilled in a way that make the bolts or screws just spin and not tighten. I'm a carpenter by hobby, so it wasn't a killer for me. It was just really frustrating and gave me more to figure out. One plank was cracked, but because I do carpentry I was able to immediately go cut another piece of wood and replace the piece that was cracked. These issues were very few, however, and definitely would not dissuade me from buying from this company again. Having to weather seal it myself was actually the most frustrating thing about it. We got it put up on the one good day of the week without rain and I had to stay up till almost midnight to finish so I could wake up early, before my daughter, to seal it before it started raining the next morning. Now for the positive. I had to force my child to stay off of it. She was begging to go out in the rain to climb the rock wall part. I was swinging and hanging on it myself and didn't feel in any way nervous that it would collapse at all. It felt incredibly sturdy and I am very impressed. I replaced one swing because I do not like the type of swings that are included (just a preference). So now I can comfortably swing with my daughter on it. I weigh under 120 and am within the individual weight limit for the swing section of the playset. The picture shows a plank hanging down, but that was a mistake we made while putting it together. We put the plank upside down by accident and it messed up putting the ladder on. So far, it was well worth the money we spent on it. If anything pops up soon, I'll make sure to add. It would just be really nice to have weather treated wood if I bought another set. But I hope I don't have to considering I love this one. Update: Its been 5.5 months now. The swingset is going strong, but creaks really, really loud all he time. It keeps getting louder which makes me concerned that I will have to replace boards and beams. It obviously has not reached that point yet, but the sound is getting louder and louder. Either way, we still absolutely love it and my daughter is still obsessed with it.

Easy to put together and the kids love it!!

Nice play set. Everything went together good. Instructions were good. And yes, it does take time to build..... it's good size and it's not going to happen in 4 hours. Should last until my child outgrows in 3-5 years

Great price and great setup! Our grandchildren love it! My husband and I took 2 days to put together ourselves. Straightforward but just took some time. Highly recommend sorting out all pieces before starting the construction. Time will tell how it holds up long term. Great size to accommodate 2, 3 and 5 year olds. We added our own round swing to replace chin up bar that came with the set.

This is a great kit. There was one image backwards on the instructions and one board was mislabeled on the instructions for placement. The hardest part about this kit was separating all the parts and arranging them in a useable order. The construction seems odd at times as you will “jump” around building pieces unlike most construction from the ground up. Just be patient and look at the instructions and ensure images are correct. Took about 8 hours to put together just because it’s such a large puzzle and sometimes you switch bolt and screw packets. Make sure your ground is level and square as possible before putting together. We laid a tarp out to get an idea of where we wanted ours in our yard and how we wanted it oriented. They also have where you can use an image of the swing set and place it where you want in the camera/photo of the area. We also used some landscape timbers and rubber mulch for the inside areas of the set and it took over 50bags! A few tools are needed and another person is needed when ready to start to put it all together but only briefly. No missing parts or hardware and minimal tools required. They even provided most of the tools and bits for screws as well as a gauge for board separation. We added the toddler and baby swing as the kit only comes with normal swings.

Within three weeks of installing the swing set, the slide has been severely damaged, rendering it unsafe and aesthetically unappealing. The repair process appears to be complex and time-consuming. It is imperative that the manufacturer replace the slide with a more suitable option, considering the significant investment made and the disappointment experienced by the customers. Sellers, please contact the manufacturer and request immediate action to address this issue. The safety and enjoyment of the children should be prioritized. In response to my concerns regarding the safety of the children’s swing set, I contacted Amazon customer service. They escalated my issue to their highest level, repeatedly suggesting that I return the swing set for a full refund. However, I informed them that the entire swing set had been installed and that the installation process took approximately 18 hours. As a result, I am unable to return the swing set in its current state. The best option for me would be to receive a replacement slide, which I can return along with the broken or partially damaged swing set. Alternatively, I would prefer a refund for just slide, regardless of the decision made. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve the matter, the customer service representative refused to accept my explanation and ended the call abruptly.
