“The swing set itself it great. However the delivery not so good. My mum was getting out the car on her own with the kids, one being 14 months old when the driver asked her to carry the 8 boxes in. In the end the set had to be deliverd to my brothers as she was unable to help to which the driver sat in the van while he luged all the boxes in. Terrible service”

“Although the items arrived on time it was very disappointing to find that parts were missing or incorrect. I have emailed a list and am still waiting for a response. Without those parts we haven’t been able to complete the tower and swings socant really say how good they are. Very disappointing to find incomplete parts and not hearing from anyone by email . It’s been a few days now.”

“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.”
