I did a lot of research before picking this model and buying it from Wayfair. The price went up $50 a few days later. My husband and son have put it all together except for attaching the slide and ladder. Company was very quick to respond when we misplaced all the hardware (Later found in the bottom of a garbage can.) Only have issue with one piece of wood which has a 4" slice, like a giant dagger shaped sliver which my husband will sand out as it is in a vulnerable place and were missing one set of screws which we will hopefully find in the new set of hardware before we send it back! BTW, we decided to seal it while it was still in pieces - much easier.
