Used the slide on a custom treehouse designed by a 4 year old and build by his grandfather.  Slide is sturdy and a great value.  Instructions were good as well.  Only difference I cold tell from slides that are four times the price was the use of bolts that show from the utside.  The bolts have no affect on the slide and only makes it look a little different than the more expensive models.  Even our 1 year old used it.  [...]  Slide is heavy when assembled.  You wil need help to lift it in place.
