The directions were absolutely ridiculous ! I would never recommend this kit. I would just buy the parts separately and figure it out yourself. Which is what we had to do anyway!!!

Very easy set-up. Requires two people just to make life a little easier when setting up the A-frame. Everything needed was supplied (including the drill bit) except for the star head bits for the screws. That was no biggie as I already had them in the toolbox. My kids love the set!

Garbage. Ordered and all 16 of the 2" lag screws were missing (the left-most packet of screws shown in the overall product pic). Also missing were 2 of the necessary 4 caribiner-type quick links. Home Depot is not to blame--in fact they helped me obtain a replacement kit in a reasonable/fast manner. And unbelievably, from the second (replacement) kit, the sixteen 2" lag screws were missing AGAIN!! FYI--you can't just use any old 2" screw instead. Those lag screws have a larger head and are critical for adhering the corner braces firmly and safely. Shame on the manufacturer for letting this important piece go missing!

    Too pricy for the swings and screws, the picture shows a complete playground but you won’t receive all, the slumbers are not included, you have to buy them, like $73 more.

    1 Hour Swing Set kit is a DIY kit. Wood is not part of the kit. Lumber can be purchased at The Home Depot. SwingnSlide

    Not exactly one-hour
    High quality materials and ample hardware. It took about twice as long to build than advertised.

    Awesome swing set, super simply, fun job
    Turned out great! I am amateur at best and the swing set looks great. Decided to use pressure treated red wood and it is more sturdy then I could have imagined. Kids were excited to use it so I let them try without staking or securing it and it didn't budge. Desrcrided the hardware to my wife as idiot proof. Would recommend to others.

      This took more like 3 hours, but was still fun to put together. Works wonderfully. Suggest finding a way to anchor it into the ground a bit better, but good product!

      Great product. Took a little longer than one hour to build, but the kit made the assembly process very easy. Kit also came with three sets of swing hooks, giving the option for a third accessory.

        Seems great a few weeks in
        This was fairly easy to put together although took around 3 hours (one person for about half that time and 2 for the other half). The instructions were fairly straight forward and it seems sturdy.

            Sturdy once together and the children love it. Assembly leaves a bit to be desired. The A-frame connectors must be lined up EXACT or else you'll have a rough go of it. Need a couple sets of hands to maneuver lumber and move everything. Dried out and stained pressure treated lumber about 10 days prior to assembly. Overall pretty good, just not great.

              Easy to set up for someone who is not very handy, it took longer than a hour but not much longer than that! It's stable and perfect for a small yard

                swing set
                You buy the lumber, used green treated, was kind of heavy moving it with 2 people. Would have preferred 4 people for flipping and moving it. Overall pretty easy. You only have to cut the 2 x 4's.

                  Not as advertised - but cheap
                  So, shipping was fast, the manufacturer's box was the only packaging. Mine arrived undamaged, but you might not be so lucky. The box contains bags with parts and an assembly sheet. The bags with the parts also contain assembly sheets. The different assembly sheets do not give you the same instructions. So if you, like me, accidentally follow the instructions on one sheet and you were supposed to follow the instructions on the other sheet, you will have to go out and buy different hardware than is included in the box. The quality is fair, typical Chinese manufacturing. The steel parts are fairly soft and bend easy, the screws strip out easy. But if you are careful, it goes together fairly easily and seems to support my 50 lb daughter OK. Not a 1 hour assembly as advertised - doing it myself, I am quite handy - 3 hours.

                  Swing Set kit
                  Excellent kit for the do-it-yourselfer. Even included a drill bit for the large bolts required! The only problem we had was with the instructions calling for you to cut 3 18 inch 4x4 boards but they were never used!! Very strange. There was more than enough hardware included, much more than needed. Nice if you ever drop a screw and there are only the number needed.

                  1 Hour Swing Set kit uses (1) 2" x 4" x8' that will be cut into (4) 2" x4" x18" stakes used for anchoring to the ground at each leg/post. Glad to hear it went well. Enjoy! SwingnSlide

                    Kids play set
                    The play set kit has all the parts you need minus the lumber. It is not a one hour job. It is a two person job. There is some measuring involved, cutting & drilling. So if you are not handy I do not recommend doing it yourself. Took me just over 2 hours with one person helping to do the two swing setup. Happy with the product but it's not as easy as it looks & is no way a one hour job.
