I bought this for my son for his 3rd birthday and it was like waking up Christmas morning excitement. He ran as fast as he could outside and if he had it his way he would stay outside 24/7 playing on it. It took about 3 days to assemble but that’s just working on it a 3-4 hours in the evening since I work during the day. We love our play set and it’s the perfect addition to our backyard fun!
