I BOUGHT THIS PLAY SET FOR MY GRAND DAUGHTERS FOR CHRISTMAS 2 YEARS AGO.  VERY STURDY, THEY LOVE IT.  MY GRAND DAUGHTERS HAVE THE WOODEN SWING SET AT THEIR HOUSE WHICH THEY LIVE NEXT DOOR TO ME.  IT IS A FEW YEARS OLDER THAN MY LIFETIME SWING SET,  THEIR SWING SET IS FALLING DOWN.  THE WOODEN SWING SET IS A LOT OF UP KEEP.  IT NEEDS TO BE WASHED AND RE-SEALED EVERY COUPLE OF YEARS.  WILL NOT BUY ANY OTHER BRAND THAN LIFETIME!
