Backyard Discovery Woodridge 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

This is a beautiful playset. It took my husband and I 3 solid days to sort and assemble. We had 2 friends helping on the first day. Organization is key. Read the entire manual prior to beginning. Pay close attention to details. No missing parts/hardware. Grandkids love it. So pleased with it.

Very high quality materials and hardware. However, lower floor could use an extra support… but very easy to modify if you know ahead of time. We had a few damaged parts but customer service was extremely fast with sending replacement parts. It only took two days to receive parts. It took us about 5 hours to sort parts then about 6 days to assemble. In order to speed up the process, I’d recommend sorting parts in assembly step order. Our grandson loves it!

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.

We haven’t put it up yet but I’mPetty sure they will Love it when we do still waiting for them to cut tress down and then the guy come to put it up I pray noParts missing

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.

I don’t normally write reviews but this company just blew me away so here we go.We got this play set a little over a month ago. My husband put it together with occasional help from my father in law. Construction is definitely tough, don’t get myeloma wrong. I would suggest a team of 3 or 4 people if you plan on getting it done very fast. Definitely lay everything out in an ORGANIZED way and go little by little. Don’t try to rush it.It looks stunning. Our boys absolutely love it. We ordered baby swings because they are still toddlers and they look great.First issue: one piece was missing and one piece was cracked upon arrival. I called customer service, let them know our problems and they sent replacements over to us. Easy process, no charges, no complaints. But that isn’t the amazing part. I would expect that from any company.The amazing part is this: About 4 weeks after it was built, we were hit by an unusually bad storm for our area. Winds were unlike anything I had ever seen and I’ve lived in this area my whole life - after the storm there were trees down, property damage, etc. The wind also picked the entire play set up and knocked it on its back. The top part of the set was pretty banged up. About 20 pieces were damaged and needed to be replaced. The bottom half was (shockingly) in perfect condition. We were pretty upset about an unanticipated additional cost but we were resigned to ordering replacements because our kids love it so much.Well, to my amazement, my husband just called the company to order replacements and they are shipping ALL of the replacement pieces that we need 100% FREE OF CHARGE. Both of us were shocked and SO appreciative. I was already loving the set but the company went above what was needed to help us out without us even asking them to. I couldn’t be happier. For the customer service alone, I would say find a set you like from them and purchase away.
