Dolphin Playground Wooden Swing Sets for Backyard with Monkey Bar

Super duper fun. the swings go super high and i also like that the chains are plastic coated so its not super cold in winter and super hot in summer. it also has no problem with weight capacity because mum (who is pretty old) can swing on there no problem. also doesnt have that many pieces so it was relatively easy to put together. the only problem is that it lifts off the ground a little sometimes so has to be anchored. -A, age 9

Our kids love it! I (110Lb) can gently swing on it, my husband (165Lb) cannot swing on it without throwing off the balance. Can easily hold 3 kids at a time. Way more sturdy than our previous metal one. The kids love it.

Absolutely Love it! It’s strong and sturdy! Although it takes a little time to assemble but they made it very easy by supplying all the tools (Even the drill bits), and step by step instruction with properly labeled corresponding bags with screws separate for each step! And there was a separate bag with extra screws! It looks beautiful and my kids love it! Great addition to our backyard! Highly recommend this product and very happy with the purchase! You won’t be disappointed!

Fun and sturdy. My kids enjoy it every day!

This item is great! It does come in two different boxes (one contains the swings/bars and the base wood pcs, the other containing most of the wood pcs) I put it together with one other person help, mainly for the top two braces) and it took us about 3 hours. I recommend a drill if you have one to help speed the assembly time, although you don’t need one. It comes with ALL you need and even extra hardware. The directions are clear & easy to follow as well! I wish the anchors were a bit better but the fact it came with some in general, was a plus! I tested out the swings, the trapeze bar, and the monkey bars to ensure the weight hold (I weight about 125) so small children would be perfectly fine on this. The fit in our small backyard is great, and the value of it is also great for the cost! My daughter is going to LOVE this and I am so happy I found this product on here!

While I appreciate the simple design of this kit, it is FAR from complete when shipped to your door. What arrives at your door could be considered a good starting point, for sure, but you need to put in a lot more work than is laid out in the instructions in order for this swing set to be enjoyed SAFELY by your children. 1. Use a good strong wood glue. If I had known how much this thing would torque and twist back and forth, I would have used glue in every single wood-on-wood joint. But now that it's fully assembled, putting glue on it after the fact is more work than it's worth. 2. Use extra screws. Several of the joints, particularly the angled joints less than 90°, will need additional screws in order to be secure. basically what I did was add about 15-20 3" deck screws throughout the frame after it was assembled. This helps prevent the joints from working the bolts loose that are provided with the kit. Four of these critical joints to prevent the swing from tipping are only held together with ONE bolt each. This is insufficient to say the least. 3. This will need to be fully secured to the ground using something other than the 8-12" pieces of sheet metal provided with the kit. Throw them in the trash, you will not benefit from using them. I purchased 36" long stakes that screw into the ground and mounted the base of the swing set with 4" bolts to these stakes. I put 2 on each corner on either side of the lower brace. Believe me, when you have two kids on this thing swinging back and forth in sync, they will be needed. This is not overkill. Overall I would give this set a positive rating, but I was not prepared for the additional work required to make it safe. Out of the box and assembled exactly to the manufacturers instructions, this thing will absolutely tip over and could hurt someone. Additionally, once it's secured to the ground properly, it will twist and torque itself apart in a short order of time without additional parts you must provide, like the deck screws and/or wood glue. Even factoring in the additional parts and labor required for this thing, it's a good value once you're done. It's just grossly misrepresented as a safe product when you do it the way the manufacturer recommends. It's a perfectly adequate design from a geometry standpoint and the materials provided are of good quality, but, this was NOT ready to go to market as is.

I waited and waited for this to come back in stock and it did NOT disappoint. There are so few play sets that are small but have monkey bars and that’s all my daughter cares about. We have a small yard and wanted something with a small foot print and this is perfect. The swings are a favorite. You definitely want to anchor it for stability since it does have such a small frame. We also added some extra accessories so that we can rotate the attachments and the kids love it! We have had up to four kids swinging and hanging on it (age 4-8) with no issues. It took about 4 hours for my husband to build it.

I would not recommend this swingset at all. We've had multiple bolts/screws break right in half. The swingset keeps coming apart. Very disappointing as my daughter loves to swing every day :(
