Powder Coated and Welded Product is THE Premiere Choice For Assembling a Swing Set
598616
This was clearly the best A bracket I found on any site.  It was welded and heavy duty.  The 4x6 and 4x4's slid easily into place with only one being a really snug fit (treated wood was still wet from the treatment and was swelled).  I used 14 galvanized wood threaded bolts and washers on each bracket.  Pre-drilling the holes with a drill bit smaller than the galvanized threads allows for easier assembly and minimizes wood cracking.  My daughter's now have a three swing swing set that is as big, if not bigger than the metal framed swings you find at most parks. They will never outgrow this mammoth of a swing set!

We had been targeting Backyard Discovery's product line for sometime - comparing it to local outlets in NY - and we came away satisfied to purchase it from Amazon given the service quality Amazon provides. The product was delivered effectively and in four boxes.

The cedar, as mentioned by other people here, is some lesser form of wood but it looks great in the backyard upon the completion of build. We have had it up for about 5 days and I do see some fraying of the colored portion of the wood in one spot. It appears as though it is a painted substance over the wood or some sort of treatment. I would recommend, which I am doing soon, to treat the entire set with wood protectorate of some sort.

The set is high quality in every other way. It takes my weight and we had about 7-8 kids on it simultaneously with a few parents and it held up well. The swings are close to each other so there could be some bumping into each other if the kids are going a little diagonal with their swinging. The horse swing thing is cool and I replaced one of the flat swings with a toddler swing from the Eastern Jungle Gym company (with the high back) and it matched well.

This is absolutely nit picky but I thought I would mention that in the telescope which sits on the perch, a little water got into it and thus when you look through it you can see a slight distortion in the lens. But its not a real telescope anyway and it still can see through.

Overall I am extremely pleased at this and I will update this in a few months to ensure that it holds up to a summer in NY.

The tubes and connectors were very snug fits and each connection had to be pounded together with a mallet.  I actually had blisters on my hand when I finished assembling it.  The assembly took about 3 hours.

The instructions were very minimal and the diagrams teeny-tiny.  On a couple of occasions, I used the wrong connector and had to disconnect it which was very difficult. (It does come with a disasembly tool.)

I would recommend not getting the set with the ball pit.  The canvas fabric holds water when it rains and is next to impossible to remove and clean or store over the winter.

It is a fun little slide in the back yard that is sturdy, yet light enough to move when mowing.  And with great effort, could be taken apart and stored in a fairly small area.

This line of products is a great way to build a uniform outdoor patio set.  All you need is a few pieces of loose 2x lumber and you have a working bench/picnic table.

What an excellent product! If you want to build a swing set to your kids, look no more! this is it! Heavy duty, cheap, high quality. You might need to shave a bit the 4x6 but takes only a few minutes. This is top product and honestly not that expensive. It will last several years!!!

Super easy to put together and clearly well constructed. I really like the cup holders--they are a nice extra touch. The chains seem sturdy and secure. I like the finish and that it is easy to maintain without stripping and repainting. The swing comes with a small container of extra paint to cover any scratches, flaws. Now if I can only remember where I stored the container next summer when I need to use it! (Note to self - it's in the basement storage cabinet by the camping stuff).

These chains are heavy duty and the coating is very thick.  The fastening links appear to be very strong.  We haven't finished building the swing frame yet, but will have these in swinging position within the week.

A quality set that is better quality than those dirt cheap "Club" plastic sets. I like the design. Especially the size of the each piece. The proportion is perfect.  As the other reviewer mentioned, the Knight's ear finish is rough. Looks like the factory used a scissor to cut it from the molding.

Nicely weighted. But if you plan to let Children play this, I have to warn you that the weight is made of Lead. A highly toxic metal. Children tends to peel or play with the felt that is loosen, and eventually get in touch with the lead. Once their hands get contaminated with lead, it will eventually get into their mouth.

The dirt cheap club plastic sets these days all uses steel weight as it is cheaper than lead. However those sets are often cheaply made and has a chemical smell on it. If you are looking for a set for children, I highly recommend DGT chess starter box.  The grey box cost only $20 bucks and it is very nicely made with high quality plastic and uses steel weight. Also comes with a folding board and box(made out of paper of course)

My box came with no assembly instructions, which made the travel carrier a bit trickier than it should have been to put together. (The groves on the inside of the white base for the dark blue back cover were not immediately obvious.) I like the set and the price is great, plus I like that the locking joints allow me to attach it to our kaytee critter trail tubes.

The set is dynamic and fun, allowing many different areas for our hamster to explore. Assembly is not as fast as the Kaytee line, but the set is more versatile so it is worth the extra time.

If you have a child installing it, be sure to check the locking joints to make sure they are tightened as that can be a bit tricky. But great set!

I bought this swing set for my grandchildren and my son put it together. All the parts were included but every hole had to be re-drilled to make them larger and this took all day. The set is now up and the kids love it. It is sturdy and of course we had to buy an anchor set and that took extra time also.

I really wish for all predrilled holes. Swing set is good for sure - value for money

This set does the job for weedeaters, chainsaws, etc.

The Best Choice Products 4 PC wicker rattan outdoor furniture set is fantastic. The chairs are solid yet comfortable and lightweight. The whole set just absolutely looks great.

Assembly is relatively simple, but does take some time and some figuring out. It took me about an hour total to set up all the furniture. The set comes with instructions, but they aren't very helpful. The parts are labeled in the instructions, but there aren't labels on the parts or the fasteners, so you have to figure out based on the pictures. It would have been good if the fasteners had at least come in labeled bags. There are 2 allen wrenches included with the fasteners for assembly, but it would take substantially longer if you had to use these wrenches to tighten all the bolts. I used a socket wrench with an extension and an allen drive bit to speed things up. Also, you may want a rubber mallet to help install the black caps on top of each of the screws.

The one other thing that I would have liked to be improved would be the attachment of the glass table top to the support legs. The glass table top is not positively attached to the support legs, it just sits in place on 4 rubber supports. For someone like me with kids, it is a little bit of a concern that the glass table top is not securely attached.

The bottom line with this furniture set is this: it takes a little time to set up, and yes, the glass table top is not secured down to the supports, but once it is assembled, it just looks so nice and stylish and is so comfortable and great to use on a summer night, it deserves the 5 star rating that I gave it.

Came ready to use out of the box and felt of great quality (the straps, the seat and buckles). We used StrapMate Tree Swing Hanging Kit and it worked well for us. My toddler LOVES this swing that we now use daily in our yard!

I purchased this set thinking that it was made entirely of wrought iron.
This isn't the case.

The chair seats and backs, as well as the table top are constructed of solid iron.
The chair legs and table legs are constructed of hollow iron(?) tubing.
I have to question this set's durability for the long haul.  I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Aside from that, I'm pretty happy with the set.  It was relatively easy to assemble.  All of the
bolts and screws that were supposed to be there were actually there.  All of the tools needed
to assemble the set were included as well.  However, the "wrench" tends to slip a bit when attempting
to fully tighten the bolts.  I switched to a ratcheting wrench which made things much easier and quicker.
All the pieces fit together fairly easily.  Some seat backs needed a little pressure to get aligned, but
no major problems.  It took me about an hour to get everything assembled.  The chairs were very easy to do,
but the table was a bit trickier because of the umbrella holder bracket.

Once assembled, all of the pieces seem pretty sturdy.  Chairs have nice, wide seats.  They aren't too bad to
sit in as-is, but I'm going to buy all-weather chair cushions.
While the legs are hollow, the solid iron parts are very heavy.  They won't blow around at all.
The set looks very nice.

Overall, I'm satisfied with the purchase, but wish that the legs were solid wrought iron.

I love it just as much as the kids! This is a well made and solid swing set and I'm so impressed with it. The seats are comfortable on the swings, even for me and I'm a big person! My grandkids loved the baby swing I attached and they fell asleep while swinging! This is the best swing set I've ever seen and the makers of it built it with care! You will not be disappointed if you buy this high quality and nice looking swing set!

Directions were easy to understand, follow, and complete. Project is great for a weekend DIY'er but I recommend at least two people for construction of the swingset.
