Ratings & Reviews for Backyard Discovery Belmont Residential Wood Playset

Good swing set, GREAT price point

Shipping was fast, and the product arrived in good shape! It was easy (if time-consuming) to put together and my toddler was thrilled. My only wish is that it was slightly sturdier for bigger kids. It's perfect for my almost-3-year-old. But I'm a small lady, and I can't sit on the snack bench with him without fear of the boards cracking! That said, the price can't be beat. This will be great for our intended use during the toddler and young elementary years.

Belmont swing set

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Product seems like it is for a toddler only. I would never allow a 8 or 9 year old on the set. The wood slat, especially where you sit, seem like they are going to break. Definitely not made for an older child or even large toddler.

Disappointed

Terrible instructions and poor quality. The hardware constantly catches and strips. Boards came with cracks and there was a hole in the canopy.

Fun for hours!

Very happy with this purchase! The swing set was packaged well with all parts clearly labelled. The assembly instructions were easy (enough) to follow, and I was able to put this together solo in just about one full day (about 9 hours of actual work time). A few detailed comments and changes I made: (1) the '087' screws that attached pieces 'H6' to the playhouse don't really engage the wood behind very well, so I used left-over '005' nut barrels with '010' bolts (and appropriate washers); I fel...

Not impressed

Not impressed. I had to order missing parts twice and a lot of the boards split as I built the set. It took longer than I expected to set up, but part of that was waiting for the missing hardware to come in and I did it by myself. If I had another adult it probably would have been faster. My son is happy at the moment, but I'm not sure how long this thing is going to last. I recommend just spending the few extra bucks to get one installed or go with a different brand.

Not worth the price

I am extremely disappointed in this playset. The wood is very soft and not sturdy at all! I was excited to receive it for my 2 year old and 8 month old to have while we’re having to stay home and social distance. When my 2yo sits on the bench, the wood moves and makes lots of noise as if it’s possibly cracking. This playset was suppose to last them at least a few years as they grow together but that won’t be happening with this poor quality of wood. Spend your money on something else that’s more...

boards were cracked and nut barrels stripped, not impressed for the price

Great swing set

This playground swing set is wonderful. My grandkids have so much fun playing on it. It is a good quality playset.

Nice set for what you pay for.

My husband and his buddy started at 9 am and finished assembling by 5:30. They had the right tools and new what they were doing. One piece of wood was warped, they had to make some modifications as they went along and drilled. The bench seat is cheap! I am 110lbs and sat on it as I’ve done on other swing sets and it snapped. It’s the flimsiest wood I have Ever seen. Prior to me sitting on it, my daughter who is 5 sat on it and it started to crack. I couldn’t believe it. We will have to reinforce...

Instructions were simple enough to provide for an easy assembly. It took just over 7 hours.

LOTS of fun for a small portion of yard

This set is great and only takes up the back corner of our yard! It has a slide, bench with table area (imagination galore) and then the swing area. We added on a steering wheel to the bottom portion and a telescope type thing from the tower area. The kids (5.5 & 3.5) absolutely love it!

Wood isn’t treated/ no paper instructions

It seems like a good product but it didn’t even come with paper instructions. We had to download an app (which I hate) and then the Wood wasn’t even treated so we have to do that on top of assembly.
