Flexible Flyer Play Park Swing Set w/ Slide, Swings, Air-Glider, & Lawn Swing

Good playset for the price! Easy to assemble and the colors are nice too. My 4 year old loves it. She's not big enough for it to need anchors; it barely lifts when she swings at the highest possible height (she's 40 lbs). Will it last forever? Probably not. It should last several years, which is all we expected considering the awesome pricing of this set. We received one wrong part and emailed the company and it was resolved the same day wth the new part shipped almost immediately. Great company to deal with!

I should start this review by saying, I would have expected less had I paid less for it. If it had been in the 150 range I would have been more forgiving. But since it was in the 250 range.....im going to be brutally honest. I just dont feel it was worth 250. It arrives in one large box. We assembled it this weekend. Directions are not concise and can be a bit vague at times. Took 2 1/2 hours to get it up and going. Would have taken 3 except we didnt recieve all of the parts. An entire bag of nuts and bolts were missing for the multiple passenger lawn swing. I have all of the parts but no way to assemble them. Its the weekend of course so I will have to wait awhile to get my email answered by the seller. That sucks. Kind of a big mistake in my opinion. Haha. Until I hear back the pieces are in my garage awaiting assembly. Also, the cap ends for the top bar arrived cracked. That sucks. I was not impressed by the slide. Seems pretty flimsy. If my 28lb kiddo uses it, I notice it flexing. I expected a much better slide. It isn't the easiest to slide down either. Not as slick/smooth as I would expect a slide to be. It came with some major discolorations straight out of the box and I'm a little concerned about that as well. Pretty sure that the slide end wont last long. Disappointing. Now, the air glider is in great shape and sturdy. The two individual swings are sturdy and in great shape. They are made with the flex seats which I really like. The monkey bars seem to be sturdy and my kids enjoy swinging from them (with assistance). Overall, I think the set is overpriced for all of the issues I forsee. If it was a hundred less I would have been more understanding.

After watching the neighbors sand and stain their wood play structure only for their kiddos to eventually out grow and lose interest in the massive structure, I wasn't about to go down that road. Plus, kids in the 80's had plenty of fun on metal plays sets. Our only requirement was that it had a glider - and this is the only option we could find that has it!It arrived quickly and it took two of us to assemble the structure in around two hours. It takes two people to assemble for sure. We put it together in our garage and walked it to the backyard the next morning. Overall it is good quality and we liked that the colors are not obnoxious and loud as all our neighbors can see it. We have had it up for two months and it has gotten lots of play time. We ordered the anchors and an extra swing that matches. The anchors would be needed once kids are 35+ pounds or multiple bigger kids are swinging on it.

This swing set is alright for the price, but I can't tell it won't last that long. It's kinda flimsy and the plastic on the slide is very thin and should have been treated to make it slippery. As it is, my kids slide down so slow they are not into it at all. The seesaw is fun for them for now, but my 4 year old daughter's legs are already almost too long for it. Not only that but it was a pain in the a** to put together! My husband and I -almost- enjoy putting furniture together and we had never had such a hard time with an item. The parts and screws were not labeled so it was hard to know what to use where. We ended up going by trial and error since the instructions were worthless, and that made building it about 2 weeks, a little bit every day. I's say it took us at least 15 hrs of work altogether. I gave it 2 stars because now that it's put together in my yard, my kids do enjoy it and it looks pretty good, but had I known these things before buying I would have purchased a different swing set.

This product seems okay and is what I expected. However, some of the hardware was missing. I followed instructions to order more hardware and cannot get any kind of acknowledgment from Flexible-Flyer. It is really poor quality control that several of these VERY INEXPENSIVE hardware pieces are missing. Flexible-Flyers lack of response though is just unacceptable. Mistakes happen but are they SO BAD that customer service cannot even respond to an email or pick up a phone?
