Swing-N-Slide WS 5040-G Quick Connect 5 Foot Turbo Tube Slide Plastic Enclosed Slide for 5 Foot Deck Heights, Green

Slide seems to be pretty sturdy, was fairly easy to put together, some of the holes didn't want to line up quite right but with a little finesse they went together nicely. Took me about 1.5-2hrs by myself following the instructions and wrestling it around by myself. All in all I recommend it, pretty easy to put together good instructions and good construction.

First off this slide was a pain to put together. There are lips at every join, nothing lined up perfectly. The rings that go on the outside once you put 2 sections together were a nightmare. They did not bend easily so you had to beat one section on with a mallet and have someone hold the previous ones so they didn’t pop off. Then the screws wouldn’t go in straight. None of the screws wanted start, pre threading them helped, but not always. The ends were not even close so we had to squeeze the ring together with pliers to get the last screw in. Putting the bracing piece on the bottom under the slide wasn’t easy either. There’s not much room to get tools in once it’s all put together. We were outside today when I noticed that it was broken where the bottom 2 sections come together. My son is 7 and weighs 45 pounds, I could only image how bad it would’ve been if he weighed more. Not worth what we paid for it. Does he have fun, yes, but it’s obviously not going to last very long.

Plastick ring braking off for whatever reason...

Kids love it and it is holding up well. The base setting is kind of a pain and it's not super supported in the base. Ours was missing the piece needed to connect the slide to the wooden holder. I was able to find an adequate replacement at home depot. Overall good construction, seems solid.

The plastic is super brittle and slide is cracking in multiple places after a couple of months. As a mechanical engineer, I am thinking they are selling defective parts for cheap that they know are not within spec.

It went together well. I would recommend not trying to do it alone. It was a handful. But it sturdy and well made.

This is the absolute worst thing to put together! Most of the holes don’t line up you have to fight with it and have 2 people bending and pushing to get the bolts in. Might be a great slide if I get it together correctly! It has about 24steps and the steps have an A, B , C to them if that helps you understand the headache.
