We bought this a month ago and chose it based off of price, quality, and the fact that its colors are aesthetically pleasing compared to most others. I'm a handy guy with a construction background, and was able to put it together in one weekend by myself. The only gripe I had was with the shipping company, I wasn't given a call the day of delivery like I was told I would, and they dropped it in the worst place on my driveway. Regardless, still super pleased with our choice, and so are our kids (ages 2 & 4).
