Description
The Appleton Swing Set by KidKraft is perfect for small spaces. With a compact footprint of just 80 sq. ft., Appleton packs miles of fun into every well-crafted inch—accommodating up to six lively kids. Starting with an exhilarating high-rail wave slide, the adventure continues with a quick scramble up the rock wall ladder to the shade of the gable-roofed upper deck. There, enclosed by protective side slats, children can safely draw or write on the vinyl chalkwall, survey their magic kingdoms or just sit and play. Outside, a trip to the sandbox for archaeological digs or a ride on one of the two sturdy belt swings provides plenty of fresh air activity. Adults will appreciate the high-quality, 100% premium wood construction and ease of assembly. Appleton is one small wonder that packs a big punch.

Nice little playset for the price
We bought this for our grandbabies, age 1 and 2, along with the pictured baby swings. The install was not difficult, just time consuming. Although we broke it up into 2 evenings and a Saturday morning. So with 2 people it took about 5 hours start to finish to assemble and secure. We have it in a full shade area but will be putting an additional seal on it this fall when the weather is slightly cooler. There were a few spots on the boards that were starting to split or were chipped on the end. But nothing that effected installation or use and once together it was not visible. We are very happy with this and our grandbabies love it.

We’ll documented instructions.
The instructions were great and the hardware was individually packaged and well marked. My yard has a slope. So I left some hardware loose until I had everything in its final place. Then I tightened the hardware.My grandkids are not ready for a conventional swing yet, so I purchased the 2 toddler swings pictured. They came from Amazon also.The instructions state 2 people, 4 to 8 hours assembly time. I built it by myself in 7 hours. A second set of hands would have saved a couple of hours.

Great little set!!
Love this set!! We changed a few things (swings, pink canopy, upgraded the chalk board to be a real one, and added some pink climbing rocks and steering wheel) but it is so cute! My husband got it put together in a few hours. Very sturdy and our daughter LOVES it! The slide is super fast and she has a blast. Highly recommend, especially for the price!

Such a cute play set!
My 2 year old loves his new play set! My 7 year old plays on it too. He’s a bit too big for the slide but the swing is prefect for him. It’s very sturdy and perfect to keep the kids entertained in the back yard.

Hours of outdoor fun
This playset is sturdy and just the right size for toddlers! The slide is a little steep so little ones shoot out a bit quickly from it! Once they go down it with your help they realize they might need to use their feet to slow them down before they get to the bottom! Definitely closely supervise the first ride down the slide! The overall quality is great and I definitely think it is worth the money!

Perfect backyard playground for small children!
The KidKraft Appleton background playground is the perfect size for smaller children (ages 2-8) and smaller spaces. The assembly was easy but I would suggest planning for 2 people to spend several hours to get this fully assembled. Our 3 year old absolutely loves it! We did purchase a bucket swing separately (she isn’t ready for the standard swings yet).

Great value!
Amazing value for the cost compared to other options. Feels sturdy and good quality. Took my husband and I about 6-7 hrs to put together. There are a TON of screws and different pieces of wood. My advice is to spend 30 min organizing everything before starting. It helps to have one person read directions and the other one work, the directions are pretty complex. We had to drill a couple of holes ourselves that didn’t line up but overall if you follow the directions very very closely you won’t run into many issues. My 18 mo old loves it!

Amazing value
Gorgeous with a small amount of left over paint. Assembly takes one long day and you must assemble per direction. So Read directions!Need two sockets and a drill with roberts bit (included). Hammer, drill and socket drivers.So the most important part is this is easy for smart girls to put together lift and level.Most important part girls loved swing but they liked the dolls best as birthday gifts. So all of this work for a second place. Oh well swing will pay off after doll parts are lost. Lol

My great grandson loves it !
I purchased this for my great grandson, so it was my grandson’s job to put it together. He did say it took him about 12 hours with lots of distractions. But it looks amazing. I was very pleased with how it turned out. My 3 year old great grandson loves it !

Good
It’s not level in the picture but we’ve since fixed that. It’s been up for a couple weeks and it’s super durable, however smaller than I expected but that’s okay because our children are still very little and can get enjoyment out of it for a couple years.

I just put this up for my kid’s Christmas gift and so far it seems really sturdy and it’s a perfect size for toddlers. It took about 5/6 hours to put together and some holes we did have to drill ourselves but overall it’s good quality and I can’t wait for my littles to use it .

Great
It took a while to put together. You’ll need a screw gun and a drill to make your life easier. Also make sure it’s on flat land or it won’t line up correctly at the end.It came with stakes that you pound into the ground and screw to the swing set so it doesn’t blow over which is great! My kids are still smaller so we swapped the swings out for bucket swings that we already had so it works perfectly for us! The sand box area is nice as well. Great swing set! Recommend if you’re looking for a smaller cheaper swing set!

So happy with this swingset. Easy to put together and nothing was damaged when we opened the box. Very sturdy and delivery was about 3 days.

Definitely worth the price!
Was a little worried about buying something like this off Amazon, but I figured the price was worth the risk and I am so glad I did! My girls absolutely love their own personal playground. Couldn’t be happier.

Great product for the price
The step by step instructions are easy to follow. Put together in 5 hours with my 3 year olds help….he loves it also some extra hardware if you happen to lose a piece or two. Great quantity for the price.

Quality Product
Previous reviews also mentioned that assembly could be difficult. I finally figured out a system to assemble which decreased assembly time. Laying out all parts orderly is a must. Reading instructions at least three times while preforming assembly helps. Also looking ahead three or four pages helped to orientate position of some boards greatly helped. This is note a quick assembly so be prepared to take your time. Also worth mentioning is that stakes proved to anchor it down will not work if you have solid hard ground. The stakes are wooden and split when I tried to drive in with a sledge hammer. Purchased anchor hardware from local hardware store made of medal stakes, wire rope and anchor bolts ($50). I have been in the automotive maintenance field for over 30 years so putting together wood made kits is not my 1st choice. However, for the price, it has hard to pass up. Took approximately 10-12 hours for me to assembly. I had on tools needed to assembly. You will need a set of extra hands on some of the assembly. Finish product looks great and was kid and mom approved.

great for the price!
Perfect for my 3-year-old this summer! I definitely couldn’t afford a large swing set quite yet but we are both happy with this purchase. 5 stars for sturdiness because grandpa decided to try the swings and it held him up just fine.
