The play set took us 4+ hours to put together. We liked that parts were labeled clearly but the instructions were hard to follow. The board placement/orientation directions were the most confusing and frustrating for us. The wood looked of nice quality but it did start to splinter as we were putting it together which was disappointing. Once the play set was finally put together it did a great job holding up during the winter month of snow and ice storms so I’m sure come spring it will be just fine.
When I got this play set I was under the impression that it would accommodate even my petite 8 year old but she was definitely far too big for this play set. It’s definitely for toddlers.
