Lot's of parts and assembly steps but everything is clearly marked/labelled. I built most of it myself, however, putting the slide together is definitely a two person job (thankfully I had help with that). There are other steps that a helper comes in handy; even if just finding and organizing the parts for each step. It is an absolute must to have a drill with quick change bits. The part kit includes a special bit for installing the majority of the hardware but, you will also need a phillips head driver. I strongly suggest using a cordless battery operated drill so that you don't have an electrical cord to bother with.
I was very sceptical to buy this...but it was worth it!!!! It arrives in two very large very heavy boxes...I laid out every piece of wood and matched them the best I could with the number system (which makes this very easy to assemble)...the only advice I have is to start at page one and do everything page by page and it will go smoothly. Took me by my self about 12 hours total to assemble.
Absolutely love it! My daughter plays in it all the time! It was more difficult to assemble then we thought but once professionals had finished it it was worth every penny. It will keep her outdoors and playing for hours and hours instead of sitting in front of the TV.
Exactly as shown in picture. Wasn’t the easiest to put together but got it. Some boards had stress cracks before installed but still sturdy and the kids love it.
This is exactly what we were looking for, 16 hours to assemble, the instructions were very good and the whole family chipped in. Definitely organize all wood and hardware beforehand. To all of the negative reviews about 'cheap' wood, keep in mind this is for children not adults or 200 lb teenagers. Our girls love it. We are very happy.
It took me a while to make a final decision to make this purchase as our oldest is already turning 8. And after the assembly, zero regrets! This thing is a good size, good height (For reference my husband is 6 foot tall and my daughter is 5 years, 8 months old since you’ll see their height in the video). The whiny reviews were also off putting. Lol. I documented my husband’s playset assembly journey here. It was a huge endeavor for sure but he single handedly put it together. I would say 99% he didn’t ask for another human for help. It was only at the very end which I’ll get to that.He said, with zero interruptions, the playset takes 2 days to put together. That’s essentially what happened, it was his entire weekend. This actually arrived on a Tuesday and he immediately unboxed it. Sorted all the pieces. We have a 4 car garage and our vehicles were all parked outside so he could lay out all the pieces and sort it out. So 2 days for the actual assembly and a few hours to sort the millions of pieces of wood. LolAs a spectator, I can understand all the whining in the reviews. I get it. I can totally picture the type of people that just don’t have the brains cut for this project. I’m one of those! If I was a single mother, I’ll be on the Nextdoor app looking for a handyman in the area. 🤣 That’s for sure! And I know some men that are not just cut for this either (they usually have soft hands sssh). My husband is an auto industry white collar engineer for one of the big 3. So he has the engineering intelligence that’s why I had zero worries about the assembly part.The playset already experienced heavy rain. My husband checked on it in the morning and he said the clubhouse inside was pretty dry. So the roof does work like a real roof. He actually entertained the idea that he might add shingles lol but looks like that’s unnecessary.The trickiest part putting this together was the slide. This was the only step where he literally called me to hold something down. It’s a long sheet and you have to bend it to insert in the wavy seams. I had to hold it down firmly while he was hammering it down after one side was inserted in the seams. That was it. That was the final add on and we celebrated right after. Literally!! 🍾Kids are so happy! Mission accomplished!Looking forward for the summer and the many core memories this will create. And I really hope it holds up well in our extreme weathers here in Michigan.P.S. if you have a very strong opinion against China products, you probably shouldn’t get this. There’s a steel plate screwed on the clubhouse with all the warnings and disclaimers. And the China origin with province and everything in bold is clearly written on there. It’s not subtle in my opinion.@miraneeholcomb is my IG if you have any questions. I’ll be happy to help! Goodluck!
After reading the torrents of people whining about assembly time, I decided that I wanted to take on the challenge solo and prove that it\'s not as bad as everyone thought.I don\'t consider myself particularly competent at any type of woodworking but I dabble in average handyman type projects all the time. Frieght delivery driver was amazing and knew his stuff, which is good because the pallet weighs close to 600 lbs. So I took my time to lay everything out and account for the massive packing list the 2 boxes that were delivered contained. There were 2 blemished boards but not worth the trouble to return/ask for parts so just repaired the 2 boards and continued on.As far as the assembly, yes it takes a long time. But there are somewhere around 1000 pieces that have to be put together. And when the instruction manual is 96 steps(most of which are installing one or two boards) it takes time. Even if every step took 10 minutes to complete, that\'s 16 hours. And most steps take a minute or two given you have organized all the hardware and parts according to number and letter. It took me right around 8 or 9 hours over the course of a few evenings after work to complete entirely by myself. Just finished installing it today and I can honestly say this thing seems cheapy from the pictures but it held my 190lbs up just fine in the fort. And with the anchors installed correctly this things going nowhere.So TDLR: If you want to save at minimum $1000 dollars for a well built playset and have the ability to follow simple instructions consistent with Lego build sets, I highly recommend this set.
My grandkids have had the best times on this set! It’s a couple of years old and we relocated it to another house after a move and it withstood that like a champ! Well worth every penny!
Best of both worlds between swingset and playhouse. Plus the price was very reasonable so we could afford the installation too. I'm very impressed with this company and the installation company that have on hand. Highly recommend!
My granddaughter loves this. My son put this together and we all played inside the room under slide and the top room. Excellent buy and quality. I highly recommend
I wasn't sure we could put this together ourselves when I ordered it, but it turns out that the directions are so clear and the parts so well marked that we did this as a family project over 2 days, and succeeded! Our 2-year old granddaughter absolutely LOVES it. It's the first thing she goes to when she comes to our house. The only thing I would suggest is adding the directions that the pieces be painted with the weatherproofing prior to building, the first year. Easy to apply weatherproofing thereafter. Thanks for such a great product!
My parents bought this swing set for our daughter and she absolutely loves it. She is always playing on it. It was very easy to figure out the parts because they were all marked. We love having this swing set and our daughter will use it for many years to come!
Purchased the play set for Christmas. Took me a while to get to it. However when we did the instructions where easy to follow. Everything fit perfectly as advertised. Great addition to our yard and our kids love playing on it. It's made out of good quality material and easy to up keep.
This app made things very simple and essay for me to follow. The illustration was clear can concise along with audible instructions. Next its on to customization just for her.
Our 1 year old loves it! It is defiantly not made for adults (you can hear it creak with the weight of an adult). I know that my daughter is going to enjoy this for years! It does take some time to put together but if you get organized first it's not too bad.
This set is the perfect size! It has something for everyone. It was an interesting family project to assemble, but we got it done in 2 days, and everyone absolutely loves it! With the number of pieces, the task looks daunting, but with written instructions and the Bilt app, it went fast.
Quality of the boards is not very good. Lots of split pieces. Customer service has been good about getting new ones shipped out quickly but there is no quality control for the replacement parts being shipped out as I have gotten new pierces that are cracked or that have been filled with glue and stained over. Overall my daughter loves the set and that is what matters but just he be prepared to build over several weeks.
The swing set was easy to assemble and the pieces were well labelled. Some of the pieces were warped, and a few had cracks. We followed the assembly instructions to a T, and yet some of our boards still cracked during assembly. I will be contacting backyard discovery for replacement boards. It is quite sturdy although it does shift when two of the kids are on two of the swings and swinging simultaneously. My daughter absolutely loves it.
We've had the Shenandoah swing set for about a year now and it has proved to be the best pandemic purchase to date! There has been hours of fun and tons of imaginary play with both the kitchen and play house section up top. The slide is fast and has taken some getting used to for my almost 4 year old!
Bought this playset a month ago for my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter. She is in love with it from the playhouse to the swings. But oh that slide which her Mommy and I have both used to her amusement. At 1st I was worried it was too big for someone so small. It's perfect & safe. Looking forward to years of fun safe memories together.
Great swing set for little kids but materials are fairly cheap as you would expect at this price point. It is recommended at ages 3-10 and that seems accurate. Parents will not be able to sit on the bench or swings as my daughter wanted me to (and I'm a fairly small adult). But this set does have a lot of great features and our girls especially love the little playhouse!
My wife and I put the set together over a few weekends. Assembly is difficult \at times\" most is quite straightforward. Quality is good . The house is a scaled down version of the other brands which use 4x4s . This works for me as I have always thought the others are overbuilt."
Great set, excellent installer...unfortunately we were missing a piece. We have received it but have to finish the set ourselves. I would have expected a bit more for the price we paid.
We had previously purchased a slightly smaller swing set from Backyard Discovery and loved it, but it was time for a refresh so we went a little bigger with the Shenandoah and are thrilled with our choice. The huge play house area downstairs is amazing and equipped with a kitchen. It regularly keeps kids age 2-9 entertained for hours! We have made a slight modification to the unit to add a slide but (Modifications not recommended by the manufacturer)
We love this set. It combines the best of a playset and a playhouse for our two granddaughters. We have stained it brown to match our deck, and we have plans to add a few girly features to the playhouse. No additions are necessary, because it comes perfect as is. We are just opting to do addons. I would recommend the Shenandoa to anyone.
These sets are beautiful and very well constructed. There are so many pieces, that you have to take the time to organize everything before getting started. But once that is done, the instructions are easy to understand and straight forward. I bought 2 sets and all my grandchildren are having so much fun.
The Shenandoah was delivered in early April just before quarantine. We completed the build and then it snowed (gotta love Michigan). The kids have loved the set. There's plenty of swings and space to play. Now we need to update the small playhouse! I'd recommend organizing all of the pieces, components and hardware the day prior to starting (especially the hardware). I used a nut and bolt organizer and it saved us a ton of time while building.
