Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

We purchased this zip line after hours of countless research on the internet for an affordable unit that comes with just about everything you need. Instructions in this thing are pretty straight forward. However, here is where they must think we are all Hercules. The cable stretched out (for us 85 ft) is extraordinarily heavy. They state in the directions that the kit comes with everything you need. To be frank that would be true if you have 5 adults helping you assemble. For myself, it was just my husband and I and our semi helpful 5 kids. It states the tension can be revealed upon installation by people holding sticks or brooms to support the weight as you stand on a platform/ladder attempting not to fall lifting what feels to be a million pounds tensioning the cable. I with the help of two kids lifting slack and my husband were unable to make it tight enough. DO YOURSELF A HUGE FAVOR; BUY A CABLE PULLER AND A CABLE CLAMP TO HOLD IN PLACE UPON INSTALLING. Other than slightly tricky set up, it is AMAZING I highly recommend for the price! It has far paid for itself in the fact that my kids play on it constantly! It is very safe (when installed as recommended) and now that I know what i am doing and have the correct tools I would probably be able to get this thing installed in under 2 hours with one adult handy. SO MORAL OF THE STORY either have a lot of friends (strong friends) or spend the extra 50 bucks on the two other items needed to save you the headache! Other than that great product very happy!!!
