The kids love this play set!! It was a little intimidating to put together at first because there are so many pieces but in all actuality it wasn’t very difficult at all. It took my husband and I about 8 hours on a Sunday  to put together. All the pieces & hardware were there & Lifetime even included an extra packet of various screws-which definitely came in handy as a few screws got stripped by the drill. We haven’t even had it a week & it’s already provided hours of enjoyment for the kiddos. It’s made nicely & even better made in the USA. The only setback is that not all pieces are labeled, if they were it would make putting it together a lot faster.
