Swing'n'Slide Ws 5031 Olympus Wave Slide 2Piece Plastic Slide for 5' Decks, Yellow

Good product, a little pricey but less than other places. One note, the flange holes that are used to bolt the sections together with the plastic sections don't line up very well. I suggest drilling out the slugs left in the plastic that didn't get completely punched out. ( to give more clearance for the bolts )

I gave it a 4 instead of 5 because it came without the bolts needed to assemble. I had to run to Home Depot (hassle). As far as the slides goes, easy to put together and attach. My deck was slightly to high so I built a landing box to install under the bottom of it. Raising it 6" off the ground. The sides seem nice and high enough. The Grand kids haven't tried it yet but I'm sure they're going to love it as I attached it to a tree fort I built.

At first I was skeptical about buying this slide. Our deck is 5’ 8” tall. I went ahead and took the risk. It fit perfectly, at the bottom of the slide we added a small piece of wood to make the landing smoother. Our kids are 11yrs, 7yrs and 1yr obviously my 1yr old doesn’t go through it, but he will eventually grow up and will enjoy it as much as his siblings.The slide is sturdy it says it holds 250lbs. I gave it a try it held well. I must admit it did give me adrenaline lolOverall very satisfied with this slide.

The slide seems good and solid and the grandkids like it.Ease of assembly: Many complain about the assembly saying the holes don’t line up. They are correct, the holes don’t line up. Had use a drive to get an alignment. The company should provide bolts about 1/4” longer, as I had to use clamps to force the parts together in order to thread the nut. A couple of holes are in tiny spaces where larger hands don’t fit. No mounting bolts for attaching to the deck. No bolts or stakes for the bottom, even though the directions say they are required.Value for the money: fair.

This seems to be just what I was looking for. It is a custom job and required some thinking on how to install in my custom playhouse. Directions are straightforward, a clamp as well as following the torque sequence in the directions made it very simple. The bolts were plenty long enough as long as you use a clamp, a screwdriver is helpful to "pry" the holes into alignment but overall a pretty simple process. Assembled and installed in about an hour even with modifiing the already made deck and railing.

Good slide but assembly was more difficult than it should’ve been. The metal supports don’t fit easily within the plastic frame until after you’ve gotten all the bolts tightened. The problem is the bolts are quite short and you can’t get them far enough through the metal plate and the holes in the plastic frame to get a nut on them. Clamping helped and some holes needed slight drilling to fit. The bolts need to be at least a quarter inch longer!!

One of the worse things I've ever assembled. NONE of the holes lined up, had to drill out new holes, bolts that it came with should have been longer, was difficult to mate together. Had to trim the plastic to get it to seat correctly. Do yourself a favor and buy something else!
