Thanks for sharing. That was very helpful. We have thos set waiting for weather to get better so that we can put it together. I only hope it will be sufficient and pleasant for out daycare.

I recommend checking the Costco warehouses first. We just purchased one for $1299 in Ontario while Costco.ca was listed for $2499 I believe.

Thank you for your review! Stating what your criteria was prior to purchasing really helped us figure out that this playset is the right choice for our situation. Thanks!

Would love to hear an update now that it's been a year? How's it holding up?

If you don’t mind me asking how much your set was, I see it’s on sale here in the U.S. for $89 seems to good to be true

Any issues edging the grass around the poles or under the slide? Worried about it chipping the finish off the poles and then rusting. Also looking for a solution to cover the grass underneath with something. I bought this set and just haven't set it up yet. Originally wanted to put it in our garden area with wood chips down, but we can't afford that, so we're just putting it on our grass. But not looking forward to edging around the thing.

I've seen there is a rust problem with the playset for some people. Could you please update if there is any rust? I have bought the playset just debating to assemble or return. I am also in Alberta. Thank you!

Thank you for the video. We are currently building this same set for my 3 year old. I heard when you posted this you have a 2 year old, that would be 3 now? How much does the 3 year old play on it? Does he/she go up inside the tower much?

Hello! Great review! 😃. Thank you. How much did you pay and, do you have any rust?

[garryedwards]

Did you anchor your frame down, if so what did you use?

Would this work for kids up to ages 8 or 9

Hi
How many people it took to put it up

[cathy]

The grass under tower will die and will become muddy soon, may want to lay a fake grass mat under it or fill with wood chips. Under while building would have been nicer to do and easier. You could alwys maybe fill with sand, but you’re definately going to need something under the tower soon. Is it rust resistant or powder coated steal? If it’s powder coated steal, may rust. Nice set, would love to know how it holds up in the long or short run. Our wood built one from Home Depot was only $400 25 years ago and only had to stain it once since then, but probably could do it again..and replaced swings twice. Replaced fort cover about 3 times, but was only $20 each time. Our kids and neighborhood kids all played on it every nearly every day and now our 5 yr old grand daughter does. Replaced rusted trapease bar with better one once.no one can tell it’s 25 years old. Can’t believe it’s been that long already. Kept it so long because our kids were all 6-7 years apart.if I knew how much use and how long we’d have it, I would have spent more for a wood one with better hardware, lol. Those rainbow sets are nice!
