We are looking at buying this for DD for her birthday this spring. If you have this swingset, what do you think?

I dont have it but DH and I were going to buy it for our DS and we asked around and everyone said it was really small, and that by the time their kids were 18-24 months they did not fit in the swing anymore, one friend said her little boy didnt fit even sooner and he weighed about 24lbs....

We too where going to buy it at Christmas but after reading a lot of reviews and asking around we discovered that they outgrow it VERY quickly and often times, children who are above average in size for their age group outgrow it sooner. According to reviews I read - Grant has already outgrown despite the age grouping listed by the manufacturing company. Also, by the time they get used to the sliding - it isn't much fun because it is not very long.

I think you'd be better off buying a regular children's swing set and slide with a toddler seat.

It's being passed around my family.  My SIL had it with her (now 3 year old) son and now my sister has it with her (almost 2 year old) son.  It's cute, and fun and doesn't take up too much space.  The telescope on the top got moldy from sitting outside in the rain and such, but we just removed it.

We're going to get it once my nephew outgrows it, then it'll go back to the next one having a kid.  If you've got a family scenario like this - then it's probably worth it.

Good to know since we were contemplating getting this for DD's birthday. We may just wait and get something larger.
