91109 Lifetime Big Stuff ® Swing Set with Bucket Swing and Children’s Picnic Table (Earthtone)

We just assembled this playground but love it! It is exactly what we want for the 2 grandkids and other neighborhood kids. Compact but has everything we want: slide climbing wall big kid swing trapeze and we bought a bucket swing for the baby to replace the 2nd big kid swing for now. Love it!

We are absolutely thrilled about this Swing Set! When we moved into our home 8 years ago it came with a wooden Swing Set that was barely usable. As the years went on it became more rickety and was just in shambles to the point where it was no longer safe to play on. We have every confidence that this Lifetime Swing Set will be in our family for years to come! It is so durable and stable and just the right size. We have 6 kids ranging from 3 to 17 and surprisingly every single one of them (even the teenagers) have enjoyed this playset so far! It’s been so fun to see our older kids playing with the younger ones outside. The instructions for the assembly of this set were very straight forward and easy to read. It took 2 people about 2 days to put it together. The tools they provided were sufficient and worked well. The only tool required outside of what they provided was a drill. It is super sturdy and I love that you don’t have to cement it in! The swings are comfortable to sit in even for an adult. I don’t know about you but the swings at the parks usually squeeze my hips and are super uncomfortable. These are the opposite! We love everything about this set! Lifetime really put a lot of thought into it. My favorite part is the Propellar Swing hanging underneath the playhouse because I can sit comfortably in the shade on that swing while my kids play! I LOVE the earth tone colors of this set! It blends beautifully in our backyard. We finished ours off with rubber mulch that was also brown & green and it just looks great! This Swing Set is the perfect size for our yard & family. It’s been so nice to send the kids out to the backyard and see them all climbing swinging and playing while enjoying each other’s company. I know that sounds too good to be true LOL but I’m serious! Thank you Lifetime for creating quality products that will be part of our children’s childhoods and make memories to last a lifetime!

My daughter and i put this together! Excellent quality.

Big Stuff Swing Set. Big imagination big fun and big quality come together for big playtime. This playset delivered so much more than we were expecting! This playset was provided to us by Lifetime for review. It is like having a community park playset in the comfort of our own backyard! The quality and robustness of the materials were very satisfying to see. Thick gage steel covered in a great protective coating sturdy thick plastic rubber and rope were all reassuring signs of a high-quality playset. All of the parts were so well packaged in the 6 boxes that we were so surprised at the amount of pieces that we were pulling out. Each box was well labeled and we especially appreciated that one of the boxes indicated that the instructions were inside. The instruction manual was so thorough in establishing symbols build procedures safety requirements and site requirements. Each section of the build was so well laid out that we had little to no difficulty assembling the different sections of the playset. The amount of effort and resources put into the instructions is phenomenal. Not only is the instruction manual well planned out put together and organized but huge efforts were put into the 3D animation software BILT. We were so impressed that the BILT app doubled as an assembly tutorial and interactive interface which allowed us to zoom in or out rotate around any part of the build and identify the parts. This is a serious amount of effort that has gone into helping the end user successfully build this playset. Bravo and well done! If the manual and 3D animation app wasn’t good enough if there were any more questions the professionally produced YouTube building tutorial really helped us when we got in a pinch. The little hints and concise way the assembler demonstrated putting together the build really helped us out in a few tough spots. One more top-notch touch by the planners and developers at Lifetime threw in was a QR in each section of the build specific to that section. If we turned off our phone closed the YouTube app or whatever else happened a quick scan of the code at the section beginning got us right where we needed to go! The fully indexed video just added to the awesome building experience. The provided tools were great. The hardware blister packs were great and detailed. During the build the manual alone was great in helping identify the part needed. The build itself was challenging at times but the heft and stability of the playset was evident throughout the whole build. The suggested assembly time from the BILT app was 6 hours. It took us 10 hours to put together the playset from start to finish. We must say the spare hardware really saved the day when we had trouble with one of the bolts and one of the barrel nuts. Once finally assembled the playset looks amazing! The playset we got is the Earthtone model. It is attractive yet the kids took to it immediately! The swings were comfortable for the kids to swing in especially with the rubber coating around the chains. The clubhouse really took this playset to the next level! We already knew of the binoculars ships wheel cargo rope ladder climbing wall and swing which were already really great features. We had the happy surprise to see that there was an unexpected three-point swing below the club house a chalkboard inside the club house a fun star pattern on the inside of the roof AND the whole floor of the club house which doubles as a little town with relief molding of roads shops homes and tunnels. These added features really added to the big fun mentioned in the beginning. Already our little boys have been stuffing their pockets with all the toy cars that they can hold and have been scurrying out to imagine and play. Our five kids have already spent hours outside playing on this exceptional playset. Our kids were on the playset the moment that we finished it! Along the build we did find some things that we would suggest to potentially improve. By far the most difficult part of the build was attaching the A-Frame Roof Tube as part of the base of the roof in the clubhouse. We really had to loosen some bolted parts elsewhere to be able to get it in. The video tipped us off that this was going to happen which we appreciated. Our older and more heavy kids noticed that the A frame that is not connected to the club house tended to be a bit wobbly once they really get swinging. We really appreciated that the whole playset doesn’t require the additional difficulty of digging and pouring concrete footings but some additional rigidity would be good. Also we noticed that the upper climbing wall tube GQW was not fully secure to the climbing wall panels CBX on the side that was closest to GQV lower climbing wall tube. Maybe a simple CUZ self-tapping fastener could be added to that lose end. However because of the remarkable engineering and thought put into this the climbing wall assembly felt solid and secure when it was attached to the club house section of the build. Though we tried to read all the instructions cautions warnings and safety information we found that there was a lot of information including two other languages which is a great addition for Spanish and French speaking users. The yellow removable parts identifier located in the middle of the book was not found until we got to the middle of the book. We believe the amount of information of the front page may have caused us to not see the note. Possibly this could be given a bit more space so as to get a bit more attention. We also feel that having all the hardware blister packs in one box would have been better that way we could locate them quickly and easily would have been better. We realize that the same note on the front page that mentions the parts identifier also mentions to inspect all parts and hardware would mean that we should have opened all of the boxes but we wanted to keep clutter down and we wanted to make sure we had all of the parts together and that we could find them when the instructions referenced which box that they were in. Another potential improvement would be to have labels on each bag to identify the part. That is not to say that the manual didn’t do a phenomenal job at pictorially identifying each part and its associated part number but an additional help of part stickers on the bags would be great. The quick release Philips head bit was appreciated. Another help would be a 3/16 hex quick release bit to go with it. As said above the spare parts bag was a huge lifesaver but additional DXY bolts and BTS barrel nuts would have been appreciated as the DXY was by far the more common bolt and almost every fastener used the BTS barrel nut. The binocular might have been put in a different location in the club house to allow close to 180° of swing however the placement and the stops that the binoculars had in place was also well thought out so as not to put the kids in danger of falling anywhere. For all of the suggestions made we hope that it is expressed and conveyed that even though these are suggestions for improvement we understand that thoughtful planning for safety convenience and economy was put into every decision. From the placement of the parts identifier in the middle of the manual so it could be easily removed to placing the binoculars in a place so the kids are safe even though the arc of motion is restricted all was done with care and thought. This is truly a phenomenal playset and we will be looking at other Lifetime products in the future.

We love this lifetime play-set! The assembly was not super complicated but was definitely time consuming- we went slow to be sure we did each step correctly and a few times we had to back track but thanks to a careful pace we didn’t have to do that often and didn’t have to undo very much at all. The instructions seemed easy to follow but we also found a video on YouTube showing the assembly and this helped us as we are visual learners. All the pieces and parts came without harm every bolt and screw we needed was included you will need a drill to complete this project if you do it on our own. The play-set once completed is tall it includes a rope ladder a “rock” climbing wall a metal ladder a slide a platform that all of those lead to and swings. Two seat swings and one hanging swing with handles. The swings are attached by thick carabiners so if you wanted to swap them out with a baby swing or something like that it would be simple to do and secure. Everything is supported well and we as adults have used the swings and didn’t move the play-set. Though maybe we could have if we had a “who can swing higher” competition ;). And since our children are little we walked through how to go up and down both the rope ladder and metal ladder as well as the climbing wall so that we didn’t worry about them doing so on their own. The pictures attached show the main frame of the player with the ladders and slide: what we were able to assemble on a Saturday and then the others show it completed which was finished on two different weeknights. As we said before assembly was simple but definitely time consuming. Our kids absolutely love it and it has made going outside way more appealing though you may be stuck as a swing pusher if you get it ;). This makes the warmer days so much more fun and way better than the kids begging for show after show! (Hallelujah!) We would recommend this to anyone; our children are under 5 and I’m glad we got something that they can enjoy now and still enjoy when they’re older. We have relatives with a similar model and their 10 and 12 year old kids enjoy swinging and playing too! And with its high quality metal structure and other materials we foresee it lasting for decades!

We love our Big Stuff Playset from Lifetime! It took us about 6 hours to set up and I 100% recommend using both the manual and video to help with installation. I'm really happy with the earth tone colors it helps make it fit naturally in our yard. The kids love all the fun things from the swings to the 9 foot slide plenty to do for all ages. But their favorite place to be is up in the playhouse driving their toy cars on the floor or writing with chalk on the wall. They also spend a lot of time on the three seat swing below the house too. We're very glad all the swings are coated and soft for the kids hands as well. So happy with our playset I'm sure we'll be spending many hours outside now!!

We are very excited to be able to enjoy this playset! Our four year old daughter is having a blast playing on the swings slide and climbing wall. She immediately started using her imagination with the ship wheel and binocular features. The earth tone colors work great for our location and preference. The size of the playset fits great in our backyard which is about 60 ft. by 80 ft. Our daughter will be able to have multiple friends come over to play with her since there are so many different options of activities within the playset. When picking up the playset it conveniently came on a pallet that was able to fit inside the back of an eight foot truck bed with the tailgate up. The overall assembly of the product took around eight hours between three sessions due to rainstorms and daylight. While assembling this product the instructions were complete and easy to read even just by looking at the pictures. However many of the components of the playset were not labeled on the actual part making it difficult to determine which components were which. Only the boxes and the small hardware such as screws nuts and bolts were labeled in their blister packs. Most of the build was easily completed by a single person. The roof was the most complicated piece to put together without help. After completing the assembly and testing out each component the playset appears to be sturdy and we hope to get use out of it for many years.

Excellent playset. Sturdy and safe. Our daughter and the neighborhood kiddos love it.
