Review on Zupapa Dome Climber, 6FT Jungle Gym, Outdoor & Indoor Climbing Dome With 750LBS Weight Capability, Suitable For 1-6 Kids Climbing Frame by Greg Quinit

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Assembly instructions not good, but a quality product.

I purchased the 6 ft model for my 4 year old child. Assembly was difficult - not an absolute nightmare like some have been having, but you definitely want to people to put this together (a 4 year old won't cut it). The instructions were not great, but acceptable. Besides the difficulty of holding the pieces in place while bolting them together, it was unclear on where to put the washers so I ended up bolting and unbolting some joints a couple times. The pictures appear to show a bolt on both sides of the joints, but if you read the detail of the text, it just says 1 washer (after requiring 2 per joint at the base). Also, a couple extra bolts and washers would have been nice just in case. The whole process (including trying it by myself, finding my 13 year old, bolting and unbolting) took under 2 hours.Once built, it's pretty sturdy and stable. Even though the dimensions were provided in the product listing, it feels a bit smaller than I expected. The paperwork says 2-9 year olds, but I think the 6 ft model is realistically only good for up to about 6 years old. My 9 year old likes climbing up the outside and jumping off, but he's too big to hang from the inside. Despite the stability, it is light enough that I can move it around in the yard if I need to.

Pros
  • Provides Endless Fun - The Zupapa Dome Climber is something that children will never grow tired of. It offers endless fun and entertainment, giving kids a reason to look forward to playtime
Cons
  • May not encourage active play as much as other outdoor structures
