Great Swing set Is really easy peasy but directions are wrong in one spot
I am a 48 year old grandmother and I put it together in an afternoon. My only problem is in the directions when you get to the glider it says to use the wrong nut and bolt set. Look for the nut and bolts with the big black washers those are the ones you use to attach the actual seat thing to the part at the top, not the M36 's or whatever it says. You need those for the stability bar.
Once I figured that out... it was EASY PEEEEEEEEZY sturdy and the kids love it!!!!!!
Not too happy
It was easy enough to put together and I think it'll be solid and safe enough and it's staked into the ground well so I don't worry about it tipping over or anything. But the legs are in two pieces which means I'll always be worried about extra bolts. There's also the issue of the incorrect instructions mentioned above. And the plastic seats say "Replace by April 2009" which isn't even a year away. The swing seat isn't straight and there doesn't seem to be any way to adjust it. I guess I'll be happy to replace it early next year for that reason. Maybe I can find better swings that'll fit the set. I may just save up and buy a new swing set instead.
Update, fall of 2009: The swings have broken. I did contact someone at the manufacturer a while back to find out about replacing them and was told the date on them wasn't an expiration date, it was how long they expected the seats to retain their color in the sun. They told me it would take a long time to order new ones and have them shipped, anyway... like a year. The seats are fine, it's the plastic connectors that have rotted away in a little over a year.
The good news is that I was able to order new 2 1/2 inch swing hooks and new swings from another company that work fine with the frame. I still may get something else entirely in the next few years as my kids get bigger. My oldest is tall and this swing set isn't that big. But for anyone who's bought it already, if you have trouble with the swings they can be easily replaced.
Nice swingset
I bought this swingset with the eezy peezy monkey bars dome, and also the seesaw, all together they make for a great backyard!
I too had a little mixup with the instructions when it came to the glider, it tells you to use the wrong bolts, but after that it was simple. I'm a stay at home mom, and I put it together by myself in the 2 and a half hours that my youngest was at preschool.
My kids are 9, 6, and 4, and even the oldest can have some fun with this set, granted he's a little small for his age.
I haven't had any problems or regrets with buying this swingset, I'd recommend it to anyone who needs a decent set for their little one but doesn't want a huge pricetag.
