We bought the sidewinder slide to install it on a playset that we designed for our grandchildren ages 3 and 1.. At first we were afraid it might be to fast for them but they love it (of course the 1 year old has to have someone holding on to him when he slides).  It was easy to install but my husband is very handy, so I am not sure how someone with no carpenter skills woiuld find it, as you do have to build a support/leg for the slide that is installed approximately at the curve.  Wayfair had the best price I found.  We are very happy with slide so far.

Pros: Curve is fun and unique, 
Cons: could be too fast for smaller chiildren
