I bought this slide for my 28 months daughter two days ago, and I will return it tomorrow, believe me she can’t be playing alone with this slide, I think it has not enough stability!!!! this toys is NOT for a kid under 3 years old!.. Kids need to have a very good balance when are on the top, especially because the space to be sit on the top is too small!!!! my daughter almost felt 4 times, She loves the slide so I’m getting the hide and slide climber instead this one.

I got his slide thinking it would be easy…wow was I wrong. It took me 4 hours and a trip to Home Depot to by a drill. My slide didn’t have holes drilled where the support attachment goes, so I had to drill my own holes, which turned into a nightmare. I can not for the life of me get the caps on, but the slide works without them so far. I will have to work on them some more though. I still don’t know if it is together properly because the base is leaning forward, however that is the only way I could get the support arm to attach. I would have promptly returned this, but I live pver an hour from Toys R Us…I made the mistake of not reading reviews before purchasing. For the price I pai ($80) it should not have taken 4 hours to put together plus additional expenses for a drill. The instructions need written directions too and just not pictures.

My parents bought this slide for my 4 year old for her birthday. My Husband and I put it together so that she would have all together when she opened it. It took us approximately 10 minutes to put it together. It was one of the easiest assembly’s possible. I was leary of this product after reading all of the reviews by people who spoke about the “Rod” and how difficult and confusing this was. It was so easy. You stick the rod through the holes put the caps on and you are done. How hard is that. I recommend this to anyone and everyone. My mother got it for $[...] at the store while the Step 2 version was still $[...] at the store. We folded it up to hide it from my daughter until her party. It truly folds as flat as can be and can be hung too.
I LOVE IT.

Bought this slide for our toddler to use indoors and I wish we hadn’t. Two reasons – the transition from the steps to the slide is precarious at best – I’d recommend only buying slides with a platform at the top for youngsters to make the transition from climbing up to sliding down – our toddler almost fell off a few times and we had to be there with him to make sure he didn’t go skydiving onto the floor.
And second, as others have pointed out, the slide is ffairly steep and fast and ends abruptly at the floor, without any kind of safety lip or flattening out. A child sliding down this slide will go down really fast, then jam his feet into the floor and catapult forward. Ouch!
And assembly was, as everyone else has pointed out, painful. There are far better slides for toddlers and young children on the market. Buy them and not this unsafe piece of junk.

I wish my wife had found these reviews before buying this item. Our experience mirrored precisely what others have complained of here. The plastic tube that is meant to join the ladder and the slide portion, serving as the top hinge, does not easily tap into the caps that are meant to secure it in place at the ends. Instead, the plastic tube splinters and shears at the end that makes contact with the first cap; it then flattens as you hammer it to increase the diameter further at the other end (making it less likely that the second cap will ever seat). It’s nice to know that Little Tikes hasn’t responded to customer complaints about this and that they continue to marked the same ill-fabricated junk. They should’ve done right by the consumer and used a metal connecting rod.
