Backyard DiscoveryCanyon Creek Cedar Wood Swing Set with Wave Slide, Clubhouse, Play Kitchen, Picnic Area, Belt Swings, Web Swing, Rock Wall, Balconies, Playhouse, Step Ladder, Outdoor Playset

I did it alone and the project took 3 days. I bought barrier sheets and fake grass to line under and surround it. When my kids were little I had a set with no fake grass and it was a pain to cut and edge grass and in the morning dew their shoes got filthy. Soo much better. You absolutely need a drill and the directions weren’t that good. When it’s confusing, common sense worked out. There are a lot of parts, you have to lay everything out in piles, sort by color and size and all nots and bolts with part numbers face up. If you decide to do it solo, you needs an A frame ladder. There is no other way. Super Quality. It was worth the project. 1 day was spent clearing under grass and Laying fake grass. Solid 16 hours to assemble. You won’t regret the grass

Delivery was quicker than expected. Came in two very heavy boxes and the slide came in its own wrapping. The pieces within the packing are all put together very strategically. This took my husband about 10ish hours to completely put together. One of the things that was extremely helpful was labeling the items so it’s easy to identify(used a chalk marker) and if someone could be one step ahead gathering the pieces/bolts. The directions were fairly easy to follow there was a few steps/pieces that took an extra second to figure out. Lots of extra bolts/screws. Made us feel like we didn’t do something correctly- but everything was used as it should be. There were a few boards that splintered as soon as the screw went in. None of the ones that splintered were specifically weight bearing that would cause me to return the item. Overall happy with the purchase! We hope to get many years of fun out of this! :)

When assembling we noticed the boards are very thin and many had cracks in them before we began assembly.At first we had only noticed a few, so we were relatively unbothered, and proceeded after reading more about the product in the instructions.During assembly, boards began splitting down the middle, subsequently leading to screws falling out. There are panels with staples missing or falling out, the window framings are barely held in place. The list goes on.We went to a big box store and bought lumber to use as reinforcement, and still this structure is weak.It was purchased for my son's first birthday - a 21lb child at the time, now 25lbs at 17 months and he causes the board to warp, bow, and crack when walking on them.This was assembled by 3 metal fabricators, my husband who is a welder/machinist and works on fighter jets, my brother in law, who is a crew chief on helicopters and fighter jets, and my father who is a sheet metal worker on fighters, and previously used to frame houses, and work in construction. I'm saying all of this to frame in your mind that nothing was assembled incorrectly. This product is simply not worth it.This was a product we were hoping to get a decade or more of use out of, and we haven't even gotten 6 months.Now we're out nearly $2,000 and we don't have playground equipment for my son or our future children. I'm beyond furious.

I recently bought this for a surprise gift for my son’s 4th birthday. I made sure to check out the reviews for assembly tips and I’m pretty glad I did. One review suggested sorting the wood before you start and it was an ESSENTIAL step. Mark the wood with a piece of blue painters tape and the woods number. It took me almost 1.5 hours to get everything labeled and laid out but it was 100% worth every second. Some of the wood pieces were very hard to read and we had to kind of guess, but it all worked out.I also suggest sorting the bolts and screws by color and then also numerically. That will save you a fair amount of time during assembly.Another review said that 2 people could assemble this in 8 hours and I’m still trying to figure out how? It took 2 of us 12 hours on day one and almost 6 the next. While one person was tightening screws the other was setting up the next step. There is an app that gives you step by step instructions and a 3d view of the step you are on. We used both the book and the app. There was a handful of times that they didn’t match up so I suggest using both to keep on track. The 3d view was a nice help when trying to figure out how to situate the boards.Be careful when hammering the boards. They break and crack easily if it’s not set on a sturdy surface.There is a swing arm extender that isn’t mentioned in the app or the book. I was only aware of it because of another review I read. It’s a short block that slides into the bracket that connects the swing set to the clubhouse. It’s in the picture in the directions but there’s no mention of it anywhere.Overall this is a nice looking play set and it seems to be pretty sturdy. My son loves it!

We LOVE this swingset and you cannot beat the price. It is so much fun for the whole family (even parents). I love the colors too - very stylish. The swings are easy to swap out with other things as well! I love how the slide doesn't get too hot in the sun. Overall this was a win. It is holding up well!Please note: my husband and friend (who are both extremely handy) installed it. It took them between 4-6 hrs total. Definitely have handy people install.Also, it came with 2 swings and was missing the rocking swing...I'd love to get that if anyone from the company sees this.

Comes with a lot of toys. Great deal for small children. Will NOT hold very large children and made from soft materials that break easy.

Easy to order and delivery was easy. Not sealed so we did seal it before we built it. We used the paper instructions to build it and they were easy to follow. We took 3 days to build it if you include the time to seal it all. One small piece of wood was missing but we were able to get a piece at Home Depot. All wood and parts come labeled. Quality of the Cedar is great very sturdy. Size of playhouse is great. I fit standing up upstairs. Kids 6 and 4 love all the features. We did add the trapeze. Overall great purchase that will last many years.
