Great value, could use a few improvements.

Pretty easy to build all things considered. Loved the cedar scent in my garage as I pre-assembled several aspects. Ultimately, I would recommend building with a square handy as there are some parts that require “freehanding”. Two complaints is deck boards of the fort could use a little bit more support, and the design to get to the window underneath is a little tough. Have to crawl under something to get in.

Not a bad build, minor tweaks would make it perfect

some minor tweaks to the instructions would make it even better but overall a good experience building it. one board broke because there was a knot where the 074 t-nut had to go and it split the board when it went in.

My kids love it!

Would Recommend

My kids absolutely love this! They play on this everyday, rain or shine. However, it took about 10 hours to put together. Sooo many pieces, but again, the joy on my kids’ face makes it worth it!

What an awesome addition to the product

This was an absolutely amazing walkthrough. A complicated assembly became 1000x easier with this

Cheap wood

Would Not Recommend

I wouldn’t recommend this to a friend. The wood is very soft and fluffy. We had to replace the support beam for the platform right away because the wood wasn’t good enough to hold the screws and the platform is not sturdy enough. Not to mention the fact that the swing has eaten away at the swing beam just from a little bit of wind blowing the swing around and hitting it. The wood feels like literal hair/pet fur on the inside it’s so soft. Not worth the money in my opinion. Very disappointed.

Great swing set! Involved prep and assembly.

Would Recommend

We've had the swing set built for about a month now and our 3 year old is absolutely in love with it. It was easy to build, but plan for it to take you several days. Feels sturdy once assembled. The wood has been stained but not sealed at the factory, so beware that you have to seal it yourself before you assemble it to keep the warranty. That's a surprisingly difficult task given how many pieces there are. I don't see why it could not be sealed at the factory. The wood is a little bit sof...

The add on baby swings are fabulous!

We bought this for our 1 & 3 year old grandsons who are loving it too much. The 3 year old only wants to be in or on it 24/7, rain or shine. Yesterday we put on raincoats to swing in the light rain.

Great Set

Would Recommend

I bought this a month ago and our girls love it. Easy and clear directions, it took a while to put together but worth it. Materiel quality would be my only complaint, but with the right care they should hold up until the kids grow out of it. 4.5/5

Review— Atlantis Outdoor Set

I haven't set it up yet, waiting for the appropriate time to do so because of all the rain. Although, I'm happy that I received it!!

Does the Job

Would Recommend

Lowes delivery was beyond the best ever!! Took my husband about a week to put together about 2hours each day. Turned out amazing. 1 board was broken, but other than help it is a great playground. I would say the ages tops maybe max out at about 8. My daughter is 6 and almost a little too big for the wall climb.

Great playground but tough assembly

Would Recommend

We bought this for our kids for Christmas and it was a huge hit! Assembly is really tough, took two people two days to build it, and my husband is very savvy with putting things together. That being said, it feels really sturdy, is very attractive to look at and has already provided hours of fun. Highly recommend!

Atlantis set

easy to follow instructions. need to be careful of using wood pieces with knots! tried one of the screw placements and hit a knot. small damage to that part. couldnt have had a fully built slide insteaf of having to piece one together. overall sturdy and granddaughter loves it.

Great Swingset, Fairly Easy to Put Together.

Would Recommend

We got the Atlantis set and was able to put it together in about three weeks. I didn't have to download the app because the included instructions were easy to follow. It turned out really well. A power drill is a must, but that's the only power tool I needed. A mallet, hammer, screwdriver (for tightening), level, and ruler were about all I needed. I actually enjoyed putting it together and after you get the frame done it goes really quickly. This is easily the biggest project I've made so the le...

Great quality product!

Would Recommend

It’s been about a month now and it’s holding up really well to our 8 yo and 2 yo. It was really easy to put together considering how big of a structure it is and how many parts there are. The instructions are crystal clear and they give you extras of all the fasteners. We weather sealed it prior to building it so we could make sure the entire thing got coated which I highly recommend. It took me and one helper about 9 hours to assemble, would highly recommend!

Wonderful study swingset

Would Recommend

We bought this swingset for my 5 year old im the beginning of summer and she absolutely loves it! It was a hit for her birthday party and all of her friends enjoyed playing on. Great quality and very sturdy. Was easy to put together and we were able to easily modify where the slide went to fit in the space we wanted better.
