Wooden swing set recommendations?

I'm looking to get a wooden swing set (with slide) that will be big enough for my kids to grow into and my DH who's 6 ft. Any recommendations? Any sets I should avoid?

Thanks!

    We have a wooden swing set from Sam's Club that cost right around $1000.  It will be 7 years old this May, and it's still in great shape.

    Features:

    --3 sets of hooks for swings.  Regular swings can be changed out for baby swing, trapeze, other types of swings.

    --rock climbing wall & ladder up to tree house "fort."

    --slide down from tree house "fort."

    --sand box under fort.

    I know several people who bought a Rainbow brand whose swing sets were damaged in our east coast "snowmageddon" a few years back.  Ours is still going strong.

    We had a Rainbow Playsystem and we had it for 9 years and then we disassembled it and gave it to another family.  It still looked new after 9 years.  The kids never got bored with it.  We decided to build an inground pool so had no room left for it.  My kids loved our playset.

    If you can afford it, get a Rainbow System but don't get the boxed kit.  Get one that they will come out and set up.  We got one and it works great.
