This play set is amazing! It's pretty darn big and was not that hard to put together. There are a few pieces that are missing from the parts list they provide, but with knowledge of using a tape measure and the photo they provide of the piece you'll he fine. There were a couple of damaged/warped pieces but it was not to much of a set back since santa is bringing them the playset tomorrow morning I made due with what I had and will be getting those replaced after. It took me and a neighbor about 13 hours and I know my way around building material. In all fairness it got dark on us the last 5 hours of the first day so that Took a little longer. This was an amazing addition to our backyard and I'm so excited to see my kids face tomorrow morning, thanks for the great product Backyard Discovery!!!!
