My five year old daughter is a ball of energy. As an older mom, I sometimes can't keep up with her. Since adding the playset to our backyard, she is easily entertained. Not to mention I can sit back and enjoy a tall glass of ANYTHING,  (lol) while watching her play. The set was easy to assemble, but requires a bit of time. We wanted to make sure the ground was level. We also added several bags of mulch, as she tends to be a bit of a daredevil, just in case she decides the jump off the swing, when it high in the air. Like I said, she's a daredevil.  The playset is well made and will easily offer years of enjoyment. As much as we didn't want to become the favorite house in the neighborhood, the addition of a playset seemed to have secured that honor for us. Lol. We only seem to mind it on the weekends. Neighborhood kids began knocking at 8am, ready to swing and slide
