Lifetime Geometric Dome Climber Play Center (Primary Colors), 60-Inch

We purchased this for our two children a 6 year old daughter and 4 year old son. Both kids really enjoy playing on it though my son likes it the most. They use it for climbing and swinging from. They also will ask me to put a large tarp on it with some tarp bungee keepers and they use it as a large play house- Fort - store - school or what ever else they have dreamed up for the day.The build went quickly and smoothly with the help of my wife. I am very mechanically inclined she isn't so much but she is a great helper when I need an extra set of hands. We had the whole thing built in about 1.5 hours. That was with my OCD of making sure every piece was installed the same way. Meaning every joint looked like the picture and each connection was started from the same piece and went in clockwise or counter clockwise rotation. I know its bad but I wouldn't sleep at night knowing one blue piece was installed over a different red piece than all the others. Had we not had to deal with that issue we could have probably shaved another 15 minutes off. You will need a second set of hands to make this go quickly.The whole thing weighs around 100# as best I recall from the UPS label. The outer box showed was was in the package and was destroyed. The UPS man I see a few times a week wasn't impressed with the packaging. I opened up the box with fears something would be missing or damaged. Thankfully it had an internal box also that was completely intact. All items were included no extra pieces or screws, and nothing was missing.The only thing you have to be careful of is making sure its on level ground, or it can wobble or move around some.As for moving it for mowing it can be tricky. Do Not try and drag it as it will bend and get out of round. Also having two people try and pick it up from the sides can cause it to try and bend. The best thing I found is I get inside at the very middle and I pick it up on my shoulders and move it by myself to another area when mowing. This lets it support its weight evenly and not bend any joints.Overall we are happy with the product and the kids seem to really like it. I also included a picture of the pieces. You will get a lot of bars and have to build the whole thing.

This thing is awesome! First off, the awkward sized box weighs 110lbs. The poor delivery guy lugged it up the stairs to our front door of our raised ranch (I would have helped had we been home). It was a Christmas present to the kids. A 'here it is in the box' followed by 'and... I'll set this up later when it's warmer', kind of thing. So... When it warmed up I lugged it up out of the garage, up the steps I had taken them down for storing up in the garage, and into the back yard.I opened up the box and was surprised that each piece was individually covered in a protective plastic sleeve. There's labeled and unlabeled blue and red rods. Lots of them... The instructions were surprisingly easy to follow, but read them thoroughly and understand them before having at it. When it says DO NOT TIGHTEN BOLTS... You don't tighten them! This I found out the hard way. Your best bet is to get through the first step (those bolts are tightened) and then leave everything loose allowing give for easier fit-up. Tighten everything completely once the dome is fully assembled. Another lesson to learn from my blunders... Make sure and place washers on the bolt PRIOR to installing the rubber grips. It goes washer, grip, washer, then lock nut. That's important.The instructions follow a very specific flow, which can be confusing. Like taking three steps forward and then one back. There are a lot of places where you'll set a nut on a bolt and later remove it to add-on a cross piece or two prior adding on the washer and tightening the nut. Again, all in the flow, getting everything in the right place at the right time. Leave them loose and then snug tighten at the end.The bolts come fully assembled with the washers and nuts. So you're having to break them down as you go. This actually help inventory everything much more quickly then had they not been assembled. I built the whole assembly solo, it took up a couple hours in the afternoon and another hour or so in the afternoon. Though I never felt too overwhelmed (brought back great memories of K'Nex builds, but on a bigger scale). The project would definitely go faster with another set of hands.The materials seem to be great quality. The manufacturer did an amazing job on the powder coat finish.We've had this in our backyard for a month now. The kids love it. It'll support up to 400 lbs. Even I've had the pleasure of climbing to the top and claiming king of the Mountain...

The assembly was easier than expected. I’d definitely recommend downloading the app for the interactive manual. Two people makes it easier. Follow instructions exactly. I estimate about two hours, but if you make a mistake a redo steps it’d be significantly longer because in most cases you’d have to nearly start the whole process over, just because of the way it fits together.Wish it came with a few extra parts for when my kid spills the hardware all over the ground 😓Product itself seems very durable and built to last years and years. I love that the bars are textured and easy to grip. They aren’t slick at all. The handholds at the joints are great for protection and stability so that’s nice. My 2 yo and 4 yo both love it but it’s quite big so my nieces and nephews up to 12 have also been enjoying it just as much. Definitely the kind of toy that grows with a kid. Incredibly study, it didn’t move or lift at all even before adding the anchors so I have no worries about it toppling. I think the weight limit is 600lbs.TL:DRGreat product, sturdy and durable, good for 2yrs to adults, easy assembly. Good customer service.Update: after lots of play and a couple bad storms, this things still looks new and is still sturdy as ever. No regrets

No backyard playground is complete without this. My kids, as well as the neighborhood kids, play on this constantly. Took a bit of time to assemble, but once it was ready, it was a smashing sucess!
