We bought this circle slide because my son loved sliding down and climbing back up circle slides at our neighborhood parks. It is very large and at first we were feeling like we had bought more than we should have. However, after figuring out how to make it work, we love it and our son does too.  I think it will be the big hit of our new play structure.  My son is 2 1/2 yrs. old and loves climbing.  My husband and I were able to put the slide together, but we needed another man to help attach the slide just because it is so big and awkward to lift.
