I was so excited to put this up with my husband for my boys. I have 3 boys- ages 7,4, and 22 months. There's something for everyone on this set!! While the weather has been too cold for the sandbox, the kids loved the slide and swings. I cannot wait for the weather to get warmer and they can just dive into the sandbox with their toys. Of course with the swings there needs to be adult supervision.  My ultimate favorite part of this is the slide! It's wide enough and sturdy enough for all of the kids to get on, even the neighbors big kids came over to play with my kiddos. As far as setup goes, we had to plan strategically because our yard is tight. NYC backyards! Thank goodness my husband is good qith his hands, bc the parts were a bit intimidating. All in all, this is a very quality,  well made playset that will be enjoyed for many seasons and years with our family.
