My kids absolutely love this swing set! It was a little time consuming sorting through all of the pieces but once that was done it was fairly a breeze to put together. I think building the slide and attaching it was the hardest part. The holes needed for attaching the slide to the platform were difficult and I ended up getting longer bolts to ensure they held the slide and went through the wood entirely. I then made makeshift caps to cover the hardware underneath to avoid my kiddos bumping their heads if they were playing under the slide.
