Really pleased with the set we bought for our grandchildren would definitely recommend this thanks

Exactly what we wanted to keep our little man (and not so little princess) entertained. Wood is good quality and didn’t take my husband too long to put together ( about a day) but helps if you have the proper tools. There were a few screws, nuts and bolts missing which we had to purchase from b&q (cost around £10!!). The finished result looks good, there is a bit of movement in the frame but this is to be expected. All round a great item

Excellent product and outstanding service from Activity Toys Direct. My granddaughter (30 months) took to it straightaway and even created her own game from the tower playing hide and seek with the adults below. Would highly recommend the product and especially Activity Toys Direct.

Bought this just before the lockdown started as we were worried our children would be bored. Delivery was prompt. A descent price for the lookout tower and swing set. I have a 4yo, 2yo and 13wo. The older two have been loving this since the lockdown started. Negatives - the 4yo has learnt to swing like no-ones business and although the tower and A-Frame supports are secured there is flex in the cross-member that supports the swings. The whole swing frame should be heavier gauge timber.

Relatively easy to build. The addendums provided separate to the instruction booklets would be better if all placed in one box.

Great service. Delivered quickly and available to call as we wanted to check that all the parts had been delivered. Instructions require some thought and would recommend an impact driver drill and socket wrench. But it comes together nicely. Would recommend the product and Activity Toys Direct

One corner bracket missing, screws for the safe wall round tower too short, not gripping the wood such that the panels flew off in the wind- utterly unacceptable. Were a small child up high on the platform that could have been a trigger for a nasty fall; ditto, were a wee child on the ground by the tower when this happened, the child could have been injured or concussed.

Tower itself is great but be prepared to do a bit of extra work to finish it. We had to saw some pieces into shape and a few of the screws weren't big enough to hold some of the pieces properly so had to use some wood glue (not any of the load bearing pieces tho). Also the kit was missing several pieces of wood which had to be ordered seperately and the slide was cracked when it arrived so the tower still isn't complete a week later. Activity Toys Direct have been really good though and have ordered the required pieces from Plum so it's been ok but still would have preferred it all to be there from the start. All in all it's a really good tower for the money, our child loves it, but be prepared for a bit of a headache putting it up, it took my wife and I a full weekend.

Bought this fir the grandchildren for Christmas. It took a few hours to put together but worth the effort. They absolutely love it. It's of good quality materials and the accessories just finish it off nicely. We bought a baby swing to replace one of the standard swings and our grandson of 17 months just loves it. A great buy

Wanted a play centre that was suitable for three grandchildren under 5 that we meet their needs as they grew. After much research decided to purchase this item. Activity toys direct website was very user friendly. Ordering and delivery process faultless. Not disappointed, excellent build quality. All items numbered and clear assembly instructions. Couple of items missing/damaged. Emailed Activity toys direct with details/photos. They forwarded to Plum and issue was dealt with quickly and efficiently. 5* service from all. Looking forward to seeing this item get lots of use this summer.

Bought this Wooden Tower set for my grandson who is 20 months old. Definitely a good buy. My husband and daughter put it together in about 5 hours. The next day they then cemented it into the ground. My grandson absolutely loves it, although he is a little scared of the slide and he will only go down it when you hold his hands at the moment. I am sure once he's a little older he will be fine. My husband changed one of the swing seats to a baby swing seat and he loves it when you swing him and he loves going up the steps of the tower, which he can do without any help and standing on the platform having fun and playing with the telephone. This also seems to be the place he goes to hide when you play chase with him! A brilliant swing set for the garden and I am sure that my grandson will have years of fun as well as burn all that energy he has. Well worth the money and cheaper then many of the other retail outlets selling it.
