We purchased this as a birthday gift for our son (1 year) and daughter (3 years). They LOVE it!! They spend HOURS playing together in the clubhouse & taking turns going down the slide. Our daughter can get up onto the swing by herself, but we did have to buy another company's toddler swing for our son. The only thing I wish they would have offered on Step2's website is the option to purchase a toddler swing so that I could have purchased all at the same time. [...] We are very happy with this swingset!

I'll start off by noting that the age range for this place set is up to 8 yrs old which I find hard to believe. My son is 3 and I don't see us using this for more than another year. It's way too small. He's 41" tall and he can't even use the underneath playhouse. I feel like Step 2 hired extroadinarily small children to take pictures for their ad because this playground seemed huge based on what I saw online. I don't feel like it was worth the money at all. The area where the swings are is pretty small as well. The quality of the ropes that hang the swings isn't very good and the hardware is already rusty. The ropes aren't long enough and I have to help my son get onto the swings because they're too high off the ground. I think the only good thing about this swingset is that it will have a high resale value, other than that I would not purchase this again.

Comments about Step2 Naturally Playful® Playhouse Climber & Swing Extension:
My 2 yr. old grandaughter loves the swing, and with help up, loves to slide down.
The directions are terrible. All photos, and no words, not even a description of the bolts. They say bag one, two...but the bags aren't labled.
Other than poor directions, we are extremely satisfied with the product.

Comments about Step2 Naturally Playful® Playhouse Climber & Swing Extension:
our play area is on the side of our house and it is compact and this set fit nicely with plenty of room. Our son is 5 and daughter is 3 and they can't wait to play on this set. It took a few hours to put together which isn't too bad. We have a playhouse and another climber in this area so I think this will add to the children's playtime and keep them busy. I will agree with others and say the swings are definitely too short. I had to switch to a different one so I could adjust it for our daughter to sit on. Step 2 should re-think these seats and maybe add some chain so they can adjust to allow for more use by a wide range of kids. When driving the stakes into the ground, 2 of them broken in half so I would recommend getting some different ones. Overall very pleased!!

Comments about Step2 Naturally Playful® Playhouse Climber & Swing Extension:
This play set is the second I have purchased. the first was almost ten years ago for my oldest son. the design is the same, though the coloring is a bit different. my first set was dearly loved, used and lasted many years. it even survived two hurricanes, while strapped to our tree... I only replaced the metal fastener that holds the swing arm to the climber...over five years time. I then passed it on to a friend.
The brand is reliable and I knew when it came time for out littlest one to have a play/ swing set - we would again buy Step2.
Service and delivery comments:
I would love to re-write the assembly instructions. I agree less typically more, buti found myself thinking thati could layout the directions much better than provided.

Comments about Step2 Naturally Playful® Playhouse Climber & Swing Extension:
My daughter loved this product when she saw it on line. Some of the reviews said that they did not think it would be good to 8 yrs but my daughter is a peanut and it is perfect for her at 3 1/2 yrs.
My mother and I put this together by ourselves and we only had two issues: 1: the slide was more difficult to snap in place than we thought it would be and 2: the directions were only in pictures, no verbage. I know this is how the guys do it but as a single mom I like to be able to read the directions in addition to the pictures.
All in all, I think that this will work out great for us. My daughter has spent a lot of time playing on it already and it's only been up for 2 weeks!

Best investment! We bought this over 2 years ago and both our 4yr old and 2 yr old enjoy spend all afternoon on it.
We bought it in feb so it was difficult to put together bc our hands were too cold to hold the metal pieces:)
After 2+ years of being outside it shows minor signs of weathering/aging.
The only negative thing is that I wish the play house came with a floor. The grass dies quickly and the kids get really muddy. My husband used extra wood and build one himself.
