Backyard DiscoveryWoodridge Elite Cedar Wood Swing Set with Wave Slide, Clubhouse, Crawl Tunnel, Crow's Nest, Belt Swings, Trapeze, Rock Wall Ladder, Sandbox, Wrap-Around Porch, Deck, Outdoor Playset

I looked for an incredibly long time to find a great play house with all the bells and whistles for my son.Ultimately I decided on this one and I can’t even begin to tell you how thrilled I am. It’s beautiful, extremely sturdy and safe.The main complaint on this is the overwhelming time it takes to actually build it… I would definitely spend a few extra bucks to have someone assemble it for you, if your interested in saving time and your sanity.I took my husband and my son‘s godfather, both very handy and strong men, approximately three full eight-hour days to complete it.The coolest part by far is how absolutely amazing the customer services. The unbelievably huge boxes arrived a few days before we were set to start building it and we quickly noticed that there was a very large missing board. Basically, we couldn’t continue to build it without this piece.My husband made one quick called customer service and explain to her that this was for my son‘s birthday which is coming up soon and we’re really hoping to get it built by then.The absolutely lovely woman he spoke with did us an incredibly huge solid and overnighted the board so that we could resume work the following day.She definitely didn’t have to do that and it was really sweet and kind for her to be so considerate…We definitely have been able to build it before my son’s birthday and he is absolutely in love!I’m in love too, if I do say so myself… It’s the place/treehouse that every little kid dreams of.Next step is putting on some super cute little solar porch lights and getting a cool plaque as well as some furniture :)5/5 all around!

Updated Review:The manufacturer's customer service was AMAZING! They wasted no time sending the replacement parts and took care of us fast. I highly recommend this manufacturer and products.First Review:Amazon requires the entire swing set be returned for the attached issues. I reached out directly to the customer service of the manufacturer and I'm waiting for a reply. The customer service person from the phone said they will send replacement parts with picture proof of issues. Multiple prices cracked/split, multiple unsafe wood knot holes my child could get hurt on, "mold" and missing paint on a few pieces and the slide has two areas of damage my child could get hurt on. To be honest if the damaged pieces are replaced, I would recommend this swing set, as it is a good price for what it is however, a picture is worth a thousand words. I will update my review if the manufacturer replaces parts like the customer service person said they would with the pictures I sent. The instructions were easy to read but, building the outside balcony before the inside floor made it difficult to build the inside floor.

Kids love it! It took two adults about 5 days to put it together. No issues assembling it, but it did take awhile as there are many parts. It arrived in four huge boxes and the slide wrapped separately by semi. We had a lot of extra pieces, but I’m not complaining because we had no missing parts! It’s huge and the kids have a lot of fun on it! It’s a great price and great quality. Swings have held my husband and I with no issues. We weight about 320 pounds altogether.Came back to update review. We’ve had it less than a year and it is crumbling. We have it cemented to the ground with mobile home anchors on leveled land and it’s still leaning. The wood it’s made out of is cheap hollow particle board and blows away in 20mph wind. We have mild storms and it seems it’s unable to handle the slightest rain storm and wind. It’s a very delicate toy for it being made for outdoors. Going back, I would not purchase and would spend my money elsewhere.

My son loves his new fort! I initially contemplated designing (or finding plans for) a playground myself and sourcing materials from hardware stores.Ultimately, I'm glad I purchased this instead for a few reasons:- Time to complete: Took somewhere in the neighborhood of 4 days, working intermittently (not 4 eight hour days). As other reviewers have mentioned, removing and sorting your pieces from each carton ahead of time will save you time in the long run. I decided to try to do this in a hybrid way (sorting some and leaving others in the boxes. This meant at times I was spending 15-20 minutes looking for the next piece. Once I organized the pieces, I was able to pick up the pace.- Easy-to-use hardware: rather than relying exclusively on carriage bolts and nuts, this kit has the correct length fasteners and countersinks to provide solid clamping without worrying about excess length to hurt someone.- General design and aesthetics: The two-tone finish is certainly nice as well as a few other touches like the shingled roof and tunnel. Trying to do this with hardware store lumber would be an endeavor not worth the time. Even some smaller items like a bench on the bottom are things that I either would not have thought of or would've skipped if I had done this on my own.- Packaging and delivery: As much as I enjoy running to the hardware store 18 times per project, ordering this meant ZERO trips. I was expecting some broken pieces from the shipping process, but was pleasantly surprised when everything arrived in good condition.Overall, while certainly more expensive than sourcing yourself, this is more pleasing to see in the yard and saved me countless hours (perhaps weeks) of building (and even more time from my wife asking when it would be done). I would like to have seen thicker wood used on the planking (and can always upgrade this with a few Trex boards or something similar). Overall, strength and stability appears to be good though. I would purchase again, especially as much as my son loves to play on the features of this set.
