What I really hate is when people review the customer service and not the product (see below). This has NOTHING to do with the product; take your complaints directly to Wayfair. Sorry, rant over!

The  swing set arrived ahead of schedule (within the week) - but this probably depends on your location and local warehouse/delivery drivers. It took my husband and father-in-law about 11 hours to assemble, which is as expected for these types of sets. It is very sturdy, even prior to installing anchors. Definitely worth the price - especially since it now gives me some quiet time on the patio with a glass of wine ;) 

That said, my boys (5 and 3) love this set! It's holding up well against my high-swinging, rough-playing kiddos. I gave it four stars because the fort is a bit small - not sure how long my 5-year-old will comfortably fit in there. My neighbor has had a similar set for 3 years and it still looks great (with no wood treatment).
