My kids absolutely love this playset. I have 2 kids ages 5 and 7 and they love swinging and sliding down the slide all day long. This playset arrives in pieces and needs to be put together, you will receiveeverythingyou need to put this playset together. Opening the package and looking at the pieces can be a bit overwhelming for some people, but my advice to you would be to follow thr instructions and take your time. It took me about 3 days after work, working about 2 to 3 hours. I am sure it can be sone faster but i wanted to take my time and make sure everything was done correctly. Once its done, this playset will last for years and provide years of enjoyment for you and your family.
