Sierra Vista Metal Swing and Slide Set

The swingset is packaged nicely with everything wrapped and protected during shipping. The parts are identified easily for assembly with all the hardware in a nicely labelled package. Assembly can be done with one person in a couple hours. Definitely plan to anchor it. Without anchors it will tip when the swings are used. Assembly was easy for the most part since this includes better than normal instructions. There are a few times where the pictures aren't very clear and it requires some thinking and turning parts around. The dimensions provided are for the swingset only. Remember more space is needed around it when the swings are used and for clearance at the bottom of the slide. This requires a large space to setup and use correctly. * Assembly hint - the instructions say to attach the chains to the top bar then to the swings and trapeze. It is easier if you attach to the swings and trapeze first. The legs for the slide ladder are too long so the holes in the crossbar don’t line up. I had to dig a small hole under each leg to everything would sit correctly. The swing and glider seats are plastic so I recommend storing them inside during the winter to prevent damage.

Sierra Vista Metal Swing and Slide Set - a Home Depot Seeds Program Review My grandchildren are about a year and a half and almost four and I wanted them to have a swing set. The Sierra Vista Metal Swing and Slide Set was a pretty good price and it seemed like it would fit the bill. The set has two swings, a trapeze and a slide. The documentation says it supports kids weighing up to 100 lbs. each, up to 400 lbs. total. The slide is made of a plastic material and, while mine is set up in a shaded area, I don’t think there would be any problem with it getting so hot that it could burn someone as a metal slide might do. The entire set is about ten feet by eight and a half feet so I was able to set it up in my daughter’s small yard. Set up was very easy but the instructions could have been a little clearer. It took one and a half people about two hours taking our time. Some of the pieces are kind of long and a second person is helpful but setup could be done alone. This swing set definitely needs to be anchored into the ground and thee are no anchors included. Make sure you purchase these at the same time. While the documentation says it’s made of “heavy-duty tube steel” it didn’t really seem like it to me and it seemed rather flimsy. It seems pretty obvious that this set wasn’t designed to last a lifetime but I certainly expect it to outlast the kids use for the next few years. The weather coating seems good and there shouldn’t be an issue with rust. While a nice, big wooden set might be nice, the space it would take and the expense would be prohibitive in this case. The Sierra Vista Metal Swing and Slide Set is a pretty good set. While it isn’t going to last for years and years, it will certainly outlast the kids use for the next few years and they certainly seem to enjoy it now. It’s pretty compact so it’ll fit in a small yard. The set definitely needs anchors to hold it down and these are not included. If you have the space and are willing to spend the money, there are other swing set options but this was a pretty good choice for me.

The swing set worked out well. As you can see from the picture I installed it in the backyard. I put it together by myself in about two hours. The frame is made of medium gauge steel, and seems pretty sturdy. All three kids can play on it and it seems to stay put, but I may still anchor it to the ground. The slide is good, and the kids really like it. I am pretty sure I but all the bolts and nuts in the correct place, but I did have a problem with about half of the plastic caps. The bolt stuck out to far past the nut that the plastic cap wouldn’t stay closed. For me, this is definitely not a deal breaker. I would buy this again.

This is a small stature swing set. The colors that are advertised are not the same colors that came in the box (I don't care really). I bought this for my niece and nephews who are over regularly- so, it will see light to moderate use. They are all over the age of 4 and that is probably the best age group for this swingset. The monkey bars are high for a kids swing set. I am probably going to replace them with either a lower chain or figure out another set-up for in that spot. It does allow you to do that. I think the slide plastic is a good quality. The swings are all good quality. For the price- I think this is one of the better options on the market.

This was a great purchase i saw an add on my instagram account. clicked on the link and and purchased the new game changer for child entertaining.. Assembly was simple and Straightforward. looks sturdy enough to last a few good summers i recommend for ages 5 and up.

Overall a good swing set. Steps are too far apart for small kids. Needs 3 steps instead of 2. That is only issue i found.

Easy to assemble, worth to buy

Great for the price

So far my kiddos love this swing

It didnt say in the ad that it was for little kids. My granddaughter is 8 and 70 pounds. She wont be able to use it very long. If I knew I wouldn't have bought it.
