Five Star Reviews: | 63% Very easy to put together April 22, 2017 Very easy to put together! For being plastic, this jungle gym is sturdy! We have it in the living room and the kids love it. I put a sheet over it and it became an instant fort!!!! I am very glad we have this. perfect!! February 14, 2017 i got this for my 4yr olf grdgirls bday and she freaked : ) she's a climber so exactly what she needed..its much bigger than i thought it would be so pleasantly surprised. How to make this the best gift EVER!! December 9, 2016 When I found this on Amazon I was so excited! This would go in the playroom and would guarantee naps for my two toddlers now 2 and 3. However, when I set it up, it was a totall fail. The eldest would only climb on it if we prompted him to. My husband called it a "dud" along with the ball pit I also purchased.So then I decided to try a bouncy house. To make room for the bouncy house I slid the ball pit underneath the monkey bars. OMG it was like Christmas!!! Instantly both kids were all over it!!! They absolutely love the combination.If you are serious about investing in a nap toy go for this and put a ball pit underneath. Use the jumbo balls for good cushioning as the kids do their acrobatics.I will edit this with the link to the ball pit supplies I also purchase in Amazon. Great fun for kids and easy to assemble September 14, 2016 Fun product. Assembled alone in under an hour. Easy to assemble as long as you follow the directions. Comes with a tool to help you depress the the little nobs that secure the tubes... Though I didn't realize that til I was done ,so I just used a toy shovel. But my toddler was on there a second after it was built. He loves it. I do wish it came with some anchors though. That's the only down side. Takes time to put together, but worth it April 26, 2016 Definitely took about an hour to put together. But with patience can be accomplished. I certainly would not want to take this apart and put together over and over. I use it indoors for my child and he loves it. He is a little young so right now uses it mainly as a fort but will climb up to the first bar. He does this best with shoes on as the surface is slick like pvc pipe. But I know as he grows he will love this more and more. Once together, a ton of fun August 4, 2015 My kids are actually a bit too young to really climb up this thing yet, but they still love it. I bought a super spinner swing and attached it to the top bars of this thing and let it hang down into the middle area. Wow, was that a winner! I also stuck a board across the top so we could let the kids stand up and inside the square area on top and feel very high (supervised, of course) - also a winner (and the extra length of rope from the super swing wrapped nicely around the board to stabilize it and hold it down).The set up was very easy to understand, but to snap the pieces in place was painful (literally). It takes a lot of force with your finger on a small button thing to push it in and snap a long bar into place, and after only 2 or 3 my hands were killing me. Plus if you push a little too hard or sometimes even if you don't the button thing gets stuck entirely inside the casing and it doesn't work - you have to undo what you've just done and fish the thing out with a screwdriver or something. Hard to explain - but I'll just say that I ended up with 2 other people helping me and we were all using screwdrivers or scissors or other hard things to try to push in the buttons instead of our fingers and a little blood was drawn at one point when a piece of skin got caught. In the end, though, this thing is very stable and won't be falling apart anytime soon. In fact, when we move I think we'll sell it and buy another one instead of attempting to ever take this thing apart again! | 72% Kids LOVE it! October 8, 2017 Probably the best outdoor toy we have bought our kids. I was very skeptical when I saw it come out of the box. It didn't appear to be sturdy enough for a 2 year old and 4 year old. I was so wrong. They play on it so much without any problem at all.Not only does it seesaw up and down, it spins around adding much more excitement and enjoyment.The plastic seats are actually pretty comfortable and the kids don't fall off as much as we expected. The handles have a foam cover that allows a good grip as well as comfort.It was a little unpleasant to assemble. Lots of nuts and bolts. It does come with all the tools you need to assemble it, which is always a bonus.Great product. This is a great see-saw. Sturdy August 9, 2017 This is a great see-saw. Sturdy, colorful and easy to put together. It's been outside all summer and still looks brand new. Perfectly safe for my grandsons, ages 3 and 4. And they love that it goes round and round, too. Would highly recommend. This thing spiiiiins sooo faaast August 4, 2017 My kids LOVE THIS THIG. HIGH quality.Seriously they spin on this faster than their fidget spinners...haha i make them wear a helmet! So fun! It's like a carnival in the house July 2, 2017 I purchased this for my small 7year old and 4year old. (they are about three same weight) Honestly, they get up wanting to play on it and play till they go to bed. I get dizzy watching them. Not to be left out my older boys take turns running the littles in circles to see how fast they can go. It's like a carnival in the house!Only issue is the panicky dad. Lol We got this last summer and it's still in great shape- the kids love it and play with it ... March 25, 2017 We got this last summer and it's still in great shape- the kids love it and play with it often. The seesaw is very high quality and I would absolutely reccomend this one! Fantastic for twins!!! June 30, 2016 This was a birthday gift for my 4 year old twins, and it is fabulous!! It is easy to put together and the perfect size for preschoolers and school-age children. It's smaller size enables me to leave it indoors without taking up too much space when it is not used. The best part--it spins too. We've been using it for 2 months and we have had zero issues with it. Great product with a great price. | 53% There are no reviews yet | 84% There are no reviews yet | 84% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 17% The top portion is SUPER flimsy and scary so I removed it September 21, 2017 The top portion is SUPER flimsy and scary so I removed it. Some of the black metal pieces inside the tubes to snap them together were not bent correctly so they slid out and were loose. I was able to use 2 from the stack that I removed to replace the bars with loosened pieces. Over all its pretty cool for little kids. I have 3 little ones who play on it and the oldest out of them is 7 and she is probably maxing it out with the 5 and 3 year old on it together. It's a hit at my house!! May 1, 2017 I am giving this product a 4 star review only because the assembly was horrible. I made a mistake and had to remove a bunch of tubes. Other than that my 2.5 and 4.5 yr olds LOVE this toy. They have not gotten off of it since I put it together. There are a lot of pieces and some pieces are VERY similar to others making it easy to get confused if you don't thoroughly read May 16, 2016 My husband and I were able to put this climber together in just over an hour. There are a lot of pieces and some pieces are VERY similar to others making it easy to get confused if you don't thoroughly read the instructions. If you take the time to read through and notice the clearly marked pieces, you will not have much trouble. The climber seems sturdy and will be so much fun once our grandkids get to actually use it (they haven't been over to see the surprise yet).Our only complaint (reason behind 4 stars instead of 5) is the tool sent along with the kit for unconnecting tubes that were put together improperly. The tool works, when it wants to and is very tough to understand. Instructions on how to use the tool would have been helpful because even those of us who were very thorough about reading through the instructions and making sure all of the pieces were included make mistakes and getting the bars apart once they are joined together is NEAR IMPOSSIBLE.Thank you Toymonster for a great product, it will provide many years of fun for us! Good outdoor fun! June 10, 2015 This is a nice, sturdy, solid climber for little ones. Assembly was very clearly laid out in the instructions, and if you separate and lay out all the pieces beforehand, you should have no trouble. My only concern was with the spring connectors. Since the integrity of the structure depends on the strength of the connections, I was a bit concerned when I had issues with several - at least a dozen - popping down into the tubes when I was snapping them together. A needle-nosed pliers was needed to pop them back into place. Overall, I am very happy with the quality of this climber and recommend it. but it is very sturdy and the kids couldn't get enough of it April 20, 2015 We got this for my son's 4th birthday and used it at his party. It was absolutely the star of the party. We had six kids on it at once, but it is very sturdy and the kids couldn't get enough of it. It is high enough so that the kids enjoy climbing it, but low enough so that they won't hurt themselves if they fall. My only complaint is that it is a bit hard to assemble - really hurts your fingers and requires some muscle. We ended up renting a van so that we wouldn't have to disassemble it when we take it home. But once you put it together it is great! Easy Peezy November 13, 2014 Pretty easy to put together...some of the pins were a little harder to push in than others so I had my husband put those ones together but other than that I put this together myself pretty quickly.We got it at the end of the summer so it hasn't been used too much...I don't think my son really knows what to do with it yet. He was expecting traditional monkey bars that he could climb across and this is too short for that. He hasn't realized yet that he can climb on the outside, jump off, etc. It's only a matter of time though. So far, I'm happy with it, just hope it gets more use next summer. My only slight disappointment was the height, I thought it would be taller but that's not really a fault of the product. | 18% Kids love it, but check the screws frequently on the ... July 26, 2017 Kids love it, but check the screws frequently on the seats, they come loose easily. Also the padding on handles came off the 1st day, but no big deal. My daughter is five and this is too low for ... July 5, 2017 My daughter is five and this is too low for her and her friends to play with. But price, and quality wise, it's worth it I guess. It's pretty solid. Keep it out of hours and hours ... November 28, 2016 The first time the top part popped off my kids thought they broke it and freaked out. If they hadn't been smacking it to make it spin round and round instead of, you know, actually see-sawing on it, they'd have never noticed that was how the thing spun around. It's pretty solid. Keep it out of hours and hours of sun during the head of the summer and it should be beloved. Fun times at Grandma's house! June 4, 2016 My grandkids like playing on this, but it isn't the best on a smooth, hard floor. It moves all over the place unless it's on a carpeted area. Now that the weather is warmer, I may take it outside and try to anchor it down to the ground somehow. Their favorite way to play on it is the spinning! Great price, nicely made December 23, 2015 Very easy assembly and easy to store. The base pulls free from the top portion, we put the seats behind a door in the garage and the base on a shelve while waiting for Santa to bring it for Christmas. All metal parts make for a sturdy frame. Very happy with this purchase for my 3 and 1.5 year old boys grand kids like it but since it takes the cooperation of two ... April 9, 2015 I think the center pole could be a little higher and the seesaw would be a little more exciting for older kids but I still think it is a hit for our back yard....grand kids like it but since it takes the cooperation of two kids it can be a problem when one of the two doesn't want to ride....then they want Granny to be a substitute and that does not work so well | 15% There are no reviews yet | 11% There are no reviews yet | 8% There are no reviews yet |
Three Star Reviews: | 9% Great size for little ones May 18, 2017 Great size for little ones, but only two to three could really hang on it at the same time without banging into each other. Defective part- hoping for replacement! April 24, 2017 We would have given 5 stars, but one of the joiners is defective and it's therefore unsafe. We are hoping that we can get the replacement part JC3 because it seems like our son will enjoy it! Not Easy Peasy! April 2, 2017 Not EASY to put together! Plan for it to take at least a few hours and you better have some tools to push in the metal pieces to clock the tubes together. The plastic tube a are thin, I doubt it will hold up for a year outdoors. Great once assembled, just a pain to assemble in the first place. February 7, 2016 Assembly was a pain, literally. I recommend using a stubby flathead screwdriver's blade to push down the little nubbins so as to avoid tearing up one's finger pads. The springs underlying those nubbins also had an annoying tendency to slip, such that only one of two nubbins was protruding through its proper hole. One other assembly note is that the 5-arm hub pieces have separate left- and right-oriented versions, and keeping track of this is important. All of the other hub pieces are symmetric.Once assembled after an hour or so my 3 year old loves climbing on it. The star deduction was just because assembly was more of a pain than I thought was warranted. SUPER HARD to set up November 4, 2015 SUPER HARD to set up. The snaps stick and my husband literally had to get tools out to make it work. It's sturdy and fun for sure but be prepared for a two+ hour set up. Easy to put together but only good for smaller kids June 7, 2015 Top part is very wobbly and not as secure as it should be. Easy to put together but only good for smaller kids. It looks cool at least. | 5% Be aware that this is really a good fit for an average sized three to four year ... September 9, 2017 Be aware that this is really a good fit for an average sized three to four year old. My nieces are six and on the smaller size and their feet drag the ground a bit. They still have fun on it, but it is really designed for smaller children. The seesaw is good, but a couple more features would make it ... May 12, 2017 The seesaw is good, but a couple more features would make it better. The assembley is simply held to the base using gravity. This is what allows it spin 360. Having a lock to prevent it from coming up would be a good safety improvement. I worry what will happen if the kids get too crazy with it and it falls off. Also having some sort of spring or cushion under the seat would help prevent feet getting stuck under. Kids love it, but recommend securing it to ground. July 27, 2016 Kids love it. Recommend figuring out how to secure it to the ground. It is pretty light weight, so it moves easily. Received the item and it was missing key parts so ... July 19, 2016 Received the item and it was missing key parts so we were unable to put it together. Hopefully the replacement has everything needed. Not sure if it is cause the kids are just ... June 27, 2015 Not sure if it is cause the kids are just not interested in it that I didn't care for it. Or that it just makes my yard look trashy. It had about 10 mins of glory and the kids haven't touched it since. | 16% There are no reviews yet | 3% There are no reviews yet | 8% There are no reviews yet |
Two Star Reviews: | 5% Not too happy with that August 7, 2017 I had ordered this as a gift to give my kids but did not open until a later date. Once we did it was broken - pieces would only allow us to build the smaller portion and cannot build the top part. Due to shopping early - my return window expired and I am stuck with a broken item. Not too happy with that. The rest seems okay but disappointed that something arrived broken. Love the end result but it was not "eazy pezzy" ... June 29, 2017 Love the end result but it was not "eazy pezzy" to put together!! It took me 3 1/2 hours to put it together the knobs that just "click" together don't just snap u really have to put force into it on each and every tube! And don't connect the wrong one because to take apart is unbelievably hard !! You told me to give you does not work ! Cheap plastic crap. Don't waste your time or money April 28, 2017 The biggest pain in the butt to assemble!!! Your fingers will be killing you by the time you get finished. Cheap plastic crap. Don't waste your time or money. Is a good product but needs better packaging quality reviews January 29, 2017 An extra J-5 Joiner came instead of a J-6, now the climber is incomplete. Is a good product but needs better packaging quality reviews. Difficult set up! October 13, 2016 This is a difficult structure to set up! Unless you are ready to pinch your skin, and bruise your hands, I don't recommend it! I cant say if it is a good Jungle gym, because I am not even done setting it up yet...I can only do a bit every day. Wish it was a little more sturdy. If they could fix that part it would ... June 19, 2016 Kinda loose. Wish it was a little more sturdy. If they could fix that part it would be a 5 star. My daughter had a hard time with that part and she is a gymnast. | 2% There are much safer options. July 21, 2015 We bought this as a replacement for our old one. Our 5 year olds were on it having a blast going from spinning to going up & down when one fell off & the other side slammed to the ground causing great pain to the one remaining. not happy April 10, 2015 wasn't impressed..........the screws didnt fit property, so it still doesn't balance correctly......the screws that fit started coming off after a few times on it.......the kids still play on it, but not happy with this purchase...... | 4% There are no reviews yet | 1% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 6% I'm having the worst time trying to get it apart May 26, 2017 Only buy this if you plan on NEVER taking it apart. I'm having the worst time trying to get it apart. Not worth the money May 7, 2017 This product was extremely hard to put together. It seems easy enough but if you make a mistake, there is no way to fix the mistake properly. Worst product to disassemble August 16, 2016 I ordered this after seeing all the positive reviews and I really regret it. I am an engineer and very technical and I have to say the instructions are very clear and to the point.I am giving it 1 star because you cannot dissemble it once the product is assembled. They provide a tool which allegedly can only be used twice to disassemble it, let alone trying to dissamble the whole thing, I could'nt even remove a single pipe with this flimsy tool. . My fingers are all swollen trying to remove just a single pipe. Worst purchase ever to assemble too June 26, 2016 I never knew this didn't come with anchors so the apparatus doesn't tip over!!! Worst purchase ever to assemble too! It is painful and downright impossible June 25, 2016 Don't buy, people. It boldly claims 'easy peezy' set-up and it is NOT. It is painful and downright impossible, hence unsafe for child. There are black springs in each joiner that pop out and impossible to re-install. Sometimes those springs get jammed and don't poke through the holes on the poles which make connection UNSAFE AND UNSTABLE. I can't go through the hassle of returning and my only recourse is just write a bad review. And I NEVER write reviews! So this should tell you I really hated this thing. Cursed all the way through. Buy something else!! OK product but poor assembly December 14, 2015 The bars are OK. The assembly was just horrendous as the buttons that needed to be pushed were very hard to depress and insert into tube holes. The buttons also don't insert into the tube holes. A couple buttons fell out. Our fingers were swollen and hurting. It should come with a floor/ground securing assembly -- which it did not. | 3% Very poor quality July 20, 2017 I was leery about the construction and quality of the Seesaw from the start... By the time my suspicions were confirmed it was too late to send it back Parts missing kids crying!!!!!!! May 23, 2017 I just got the grown up sewsaw !! Today went to put it together for the kids that waited and waited !!!!! Three parts are missing !! One seat !! One arm and no hard ware !!!!! DO NOT BUY April 15, 2017 the seesaw arrived I opened it and started to put together, there were 4 parts missing. two plastic pipe insets and a seat. My child and I are very disappointed. Wish Amazon would allow a BIG FAT ZERO STAR. poor customer service July 20, 2016 I give this junk zero stars it's advertised for ages 3-8, my 6 yr old can't use it feet touch ground and hurt his knees in playing process. Second thing there is manufacturers defect in the stand and when I called service, they said only way to reach is email, and I don't have email, poor customer service , 2 hour of hurting my fingers with the nuts and bolts and all to find age advertisement wrong and no help from their line , def gonna take apart and return! Do not waste money this is intended for 3-4 yrs age max and don't expect any help from them in terms of defects or assistance One Star February 28, 2016 Instructions for assembly are very confusing. I would give it zero stars if I could. | 12% There are no reviews yet | 1% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
