Space Dome Climber – Rust and UV Resistant Steel – 1000 lb. Capacity – for Kids Ages 3 to 9

My kids love it! It was easy for me to put it together myself, but I let the kids help. The Styrofoam fell apart inside, and a few rods were scratched, but nothing a little paint can't help. It's very sturdy and didn't destroy my wallet.

This thing is rock solid. The box says "easy to assemble" which I guess is sort of true. It's not too confusing but it takes a few hours if you're doing it solo.Also the box it comes in is 74 lbs. I didn't know it was that heavy so I feel horrible for the delivery driver who had to bring it to our porch.But this thing is awesome and our kid loves it. I like that I can climb on it too 😀

My kids love it!! Highly recommend! Great product! Very well built and study!

When we decide to replace our small toddler swing set for our 3- and 4-year-old, we originally considered buying a standard swingset. However, our backyard is small, with low trees, and we had difficulty finding something that fit easily but was still entertaining. We also had been battling a problem with black widow spiders in the yard, and were hesitant to add something with a lot of hidden, enclosed spaces. In the end, we decided to purchase this instead of a traditional swing set and couldn't be happier!We are very impressed with the quality. This set is very sturdy, and has even held my husband's weight (about 185 lbs) without a groan or flex. It is the perfect height for us - my kids will be able to climb on it for several years, but it isn't so high that I worry about their safety now. It was a bit time-consuming to assemble, and definitely would be hard for a single person to assemble alone.As far as the play and interest aspect, we've found that our kids play with it often and for long periods of time. Sometimes it is a rocket ship to the moon, others a lion cage. Sometimes they like to hang upside down from the bars like monkeys. My son even tosses balls through it like a giant basketball hoop. Honestly, I feel like they play with this more than they would a traditional swing and playhouse set! Not only do they enjoy it, but we've seen them making great improvements in their motor skills and balance, while increasing their upper body strength. Their confidence and stability while climbing has increased dramatically in just a few months. We definitely recommend it!

The weight limit isn’t totally accurate, but it is functional for my two children under 5 to play on it. The color has lasted and it seems mostly durable.

This item is very sturdy. I'm 250+ and it holds me easily. It takes a while to put it together though and you'll have some very tired hands after. I would not recommend building this on a hard surface because you'll scratch the paint. Best to be built on grass. I have some scratch marks from building it on a dirt floor. It took my son and I about 1.5 hours to build this and we were moving as fast as we could in order to try and surprise my daughters. I would recommend having a helper and set aside at least 2 hours to build. If you have arthritis in your hands or little hand strength, you may need someone to help you put the caps on.I really wish they had some wheels on one end of it for people that have it on grass. It can be picked up and drug across the grass, but it takes some work. If there were some wheels, it would be so much easier to move around. You can however, put a kid's ride on under one side and drag it around pretty easy. Odds are you'll have one of those around if you own this.Update 7/18/2017:My girls still love it and I haven't seen a bit of rust on it. Still very happy with this purchase!Update 1/4/2024:My girls haven't used it much the last couple years, so I gave it to one of my neighbors that has young ones. Some of the plastic caps came off, but the unit was still strong as ever. Very happy I purchased this for my girls so many years ago.

It wasn’t too hard to put together, I did it by myself. I just put it together in parts and it took a couple hours. Seems very sturdy. My kids love this. They are 2 and 10 and they have a lot of fun. We also hung a swing in the middle. It’s heavy but easy to move for mowing the yard.

This dome has been really fun for our kids. It's extremely sturdy and we like the colors! Everything was labeled very nicely and the instructions were easy to understand. We purchased the one that holds up to 1,000lbs and I have climbed on it a lot (and it's very sturdy). But, you really do need 2-3 more people, at the end, when putting it all together. You also must make sure that you have a flat surface to place it on and you don't really want to move it after you are done. When you move it (which you can easily do with 2 people), you have to re-adjust and make sure it's flush to the ground. Otherwise, I assume, the bars would bend or not be strong for the kids to climb onto. But, my daughter is learning how to hang upside down! She's 5. My son, who is 12, enjoys climbing on it but he's too tall to hang upside down. We enjoy it very much!
