We purchased this swing set in June 2012. We wanted to get my son, who was 20 months old at the time, some outdoor toys for the summer. I did EXTENSIVE research online for plastic play toys for toddlers and eventually I narrowed it down to the little tykes adventure gym and this set. This set was a little cheaper and it had all of the same features as the little tykes one.
My husband and my dad put it together in about an hour, not hard, but you will need more than one person. You do need to drill some of the plastic holes a bit more but it really is no big deal. I was a little concerned that my son would be too small to climb the ladder but we showed him how to a few times and he was fine. There are handles on the side of the play house to help little ones pull themselves up to the platform. The set is sturdy, and durable. It is easy to clean. The slide actually goes pretty fast. We were worried that it would be less fun for our kids since it was a smaller slide, but it is fine. We did add two baby swings 9( have an infant too) and they hooked on easily. I do wish that these smaller sets came with at least one baby swing. Like I said, I researched EVERY plastic and some metal sets out there and this was what we bought and I am very happy with our purchase. My son plays on it every time we go out in the yard and that is what I hoped would happen!
I will note that this is a Toddler set. I would not recommend this to kids who are over about 7 years old. When our kids are older we will upgrade to a wooden set but for now this is perfect.

Comments about Step2 Play Up Gym Set™:
Assembly of this item is no more difficult than any assemble-yourself item you may find at home (i.e. furniture). I would not say it is easy, but the difficulty of assembly is well within reason. The instructions are typical assemble-yourself instructions: a lot of pictures requiring a little logical interpretation. I am a regular guy with moderate experience assembling items in the home and I literally assembled this by myself in four hours at a leisurely pace. If you do not meet my basic experience level, then perhaps you will have greater difficulty. If you meet or exceed my basic experience level, then you will find little problem assembling this item.

This product is used for my 16 month old daughter who absolutely loves to swing but is a little small for the park a block down the street. This play gym fits nicely in the yard without taking up too much space and is a great private park area for my daughter.
