Backyard Discovery Tanglewood Cedar Wood Swing Set, Slide, Clubhouse, Playhouse, Snack Bar

We purchased the tangle wood and my daughter and her friends absolutely are having a blast. Some parts of the wood are splintery and peeling which was my own concern. Not sure if that’s normal wear and tear or problematic. Still too early to tell. Overall great purchase

I put this set together myself (except for the slide, which my wife helped me do) and it took about 19 hours but it was worth it to watch how much fun my daughter has playing on it! I took my time because it's easier to go slow than to put something together wrong and have to backup 10 steps in order to fix one little thing. There weren't a lot of times where I was scratching my head while looking at the directions but there were a couple when trying to figure out certain arrangements but I soon realized the point of those somewhat confusing directions when things started to line up. I had to muscle the lower roof a little bit to get it to line up with the wall of the upper level but it all came together pretty smoothly before and after that. I used the hand wrenches quite a bit, too, as I don't have a 20 volt cordless drill to drive the screws and bolts home. (No matter what, you'll mostly need them to at least hold the nut while driving the bolts.) I had one narrow gap in the middle of the lower level wall between the windows after starting the wall slats on the outsides and moving in. I called customer service, spoke with a guy who sent out a few possible boards that could help me fix it, received them about a week later and was able to cut and rip one of the boards on my table saw to perfectly fit the gap. Now it looks even better!

Nice swing set and the grandson loves it. Do yourself a favor and sort all the pieces into piles according to their labels before you start. Leave the hardware in the bags they come in as they are labeled too. You will save yourself a ton of time.

Very easy to follow instructions for assembly. Everything was marked and sorted appropriately. My husband and I put together in about 15 hrs. My kids love playing on it. It is sturdy and with a little maintenance each year, we are confident that it will provide family years of outdoor play and exploration. We highly recommend this product!

I bought this for my granddaughter. My son, daughter-in-law, and I assembled it in a day and a half. The instructions are clearly written and easy to follow. The only thing I would say is that it is easy to use the wrong side of a board. It is pictured, but not always highlighted to be sure it is done correctly. I have built another play set that was heavier grade than this, and it took about twice as long. It also cost twice as much. I think this is a good value for the price.

Kids (ages 1, 5 and 7) are beyond thrilled. It's a beast to put together (as expected) but probably the single most rewarding purchase I've ever made. I did not think the 2-person swing would be popular, but it's definitely the older kids' favorite part of the playground. The shipment did arrive one day later than expected, which was inconvenient since we had a friend come in from out of town to help build it.

My kids love this playset! Assembly was pretty straightforward and everything is labeled really well. There is even an app that walks you through how to assemble the playset. It did take several weeks to get delivered and it was delivered to our neighbors house. It did take several hours to seal all the boards prior to assembly. From unboxing to completion it took 4 days (including sealing the boards with 2 coats and creating a rubber mulch filled play area).

love this playground a lot! The toddlers love it too! easy to build with 2 people. Kids are 2yrs old but with parental supervision and support they can climb and slide they love to go out a play everyday. Worth the money 100 percent!! fits nicely in the yard not too small but not too big. Will purchase again is I ever need too! The price was within reason and the materials appear like good quality.

Overall, I am glad I made the purchase. This has been used everyday since it got put together. The kids absolutely love it. However, I am a little disappointed in the quality of some of the wood received. There are a couple that are split on large parts of the wood pieces which will probably have to be replaced sooner rather than later. Other pieces have huge chunks just flaking off which we have been filling in with wood glue. For the price, I would figure the wood would be better quality.

Just an FYI the swing set came in 2 large rectanle boxes. Seemed like it would have been more and when I sent a message to the seller to ask I never got a reply after 3 emails. Now with the assembly. The instructions were somewhat easy to follow but the problem we had was some the wood peices were not cut right and were not fitting properly. Gaps in between the wood. We had to improvise a lot. The screws they wanted us to use to connect the beam to the play house were too small! Pay real close attention to the hardware letters and numbers. Some have the same numbers but different letters and that threw us off. As well as the pre drilled holes. It took 2 people to assemble in 3 days. Lots of parts and we had a lot of hardware left over. Not good. Overall the kids enjoy playong on it. But such a pain putting together.
