Does anyone have this play set
We want to buy Nina a play set/swing set but not one of the huge wooden ones for at least, another year or two . Im too nervous letting her play on one of those. Does anyone have this one? If so, do you recommend it?
TIA
Play set

Re: Does anyone have this play set
I like that!!
ETA-it doesn't look like she would outgrow it fast either. I love step 2 stuff. We have the neat and tidy and even through our nasty winter, it looks perfect

Re: Does anyone have this play set
That's what I figured, Nina is on the smaller side and I just don't like her climbing around on a big play set. This one doesn't look like its too small but small enough. Plus it will be good for Luke next year!

Re: Does anyone have this play set
It's cute, but how old is she? DS is 2, and I can't see him having much fun on this at this point. So I'm not sure how old DC is, but maybe you'll get a year out of it?
I know what you mean about the big wood sets though-we looked at them today, and they are HUGE! And while DS loved them and can climb them, he seems kind of small for them still. I'm almost thinking of just getting him a sandbox this year and using the parks around us and waiting one more year until he's 3, or maybe getting a set at the end of the summer.

Re: Does anyone have this play set
We have a similar one to that, probably the older model. It was free as it was left at my BILs new house and his kids are older. Its great for DS who is 27 months now. He really is enjoying it. Its really the perfect size and I dont worry about him climbing it alone. Ours has a playhouse underneath as well which he likes to hang out it.
I am not sure I would have spent $500 on it when the big wood one we will probably get is at Costco for $1K. We are figuring DS will use this set this year, probably next year and then when he is 4 we will get a big wood one.
This is the one we have

Re: Does anyone have this play set
I have something very similar..
My neighbors found it on CraigsList one night, went and got, and I found it sitting in my yard the next day..(It was FREE)
The kids do use the swing part but the slide is really kinda cheesy for anyone over 2...
I dont NOT recommend it b/c Caden does like it but I cant see spending that kind of money on it...

I have a very similar one from Little Tikes

The slide is a little too short and "boring" IMO but kids of all ages seem to love it when they are over to play.

Re: Does anyone have this play set
It's cute, but I wouldn't spend $500 on it. DD is 30 mos and I think she is taller than the slide on that already, but she would enjoy the swings.
We just got the smallest set from Wood Kingdom for $600, and that included delivery and assembly. I would see if you can get something used on Craiglist and save your money for next year.

Re: Does anyone have this play set
So I bought at Toys R Us for $299!!!! They were selling it for $399 but I showed them the online price and they matched it!!!!!! I can't wait to set it up!!! Nina couldn't care less about slides, so I am not too worried about that. She really only likes swings.
Ang, Lucas will be the first one invited

We just got that for DD's 2nd birthday yesterday! We haven't put it together yet, but we felt this would be perfect for her.

Can I ask how big the box was for this set??? Would it fit say, in a CR-V?
Thanks so much!

The box is HUGE. I had to borrow a pick-up.
