It’s a great play set for my little one. It does come in a lot of pieces, but if you follow the directions and pay close attention to the orientation of the pieces in the diagrams, you’ll get it put together with time. Took my hubs and FiL about 9 hours from sorting all the pieces to her playing on it. There is maintenance that needs done, sanding and water sealing, so it is an ordeal, but it is worth it to us. Our babe is turning two soon, and she is going to get a lot of use out of it. Good buy. Would recommend.
