Installation came the day everything finally arrived and it's perfect. They even customized the set by moving the ladder and sawing off one swing position to make it fit into my yard. The installer even added the steering wheel I bought for us with a longer screw than the one it came with. It's pricier than a box set from Home Depot but the quality is much better. Super thick wood, really sturdy. It's going to serve us well for a long time. To quote my 5yo, "it's even better than I expected!!"

There are plenty of benches too for older family members who might need a rest. Plenty of photo spots for teens or family photos. We brought our 11 month old for photos with the sunflowers and while our baby hates the heat and didn't want to cooperate for the photos, we are sure she will absolutely love this place as she grows up as there are so many activities for many age ranges. The most interesting section for our baby was the animal area as she hasn't seen any of those animals in person. We also played a few ball throwing games between my husband and I and picked sunflowers that lasted more than a week after our visit. I definitely plan to make this spot a family tradition for years to come!

Many visitors and shoppers tend to have an emotional connection to Kobo, formerly known as Higo. I…read moream one of those people who calls it Higo, before I will remember it is in fact Kobo now. Higo is the original shop owned and run by the Murakami family. This is one of the few businesses that survived the Executive Order 9066 written in 1942 with thanks to the non-Japanese friends of the family who owned businesses in the same building. Today, Kobo represents a new generation of local artists, selling gift items, crafts, tees, books, art, jewelry, and much more at varying level of prices. I highly recommend Kobo when shopping for unique gifts. When I recently visited, they had a glass artwork on display, art gallery style. It was also the yearly Nihonmachi celebration, and they had a table outside with an artist painting one of three designs on classic Japanese windchimes. I was thrilled to buy one of these adorable windchimes commonly featured in anime including Studio Ghibli movies.

I had to pay $75 deposit for the pallets and was told it didn't matter that it "could" take me a few years before I (Senior, disabled, single, lady) to get everything off the pallets, the refund would be good. Well, it wasn't! My handyman, who brought them back yesterday, was told they have a "6 month" limit on returning pallets. Well, I guess I'm the fool for assuming their verbal statement was a solid agreement! I still have the receipt for the $75 pallet charge, but they will not honor their verbal agreement, after 6 months!!!!!!!

KOBO Capitol Hill is tucked away at one end of Broadway on a cute little corner that's easy to miss if you're not looking. They have an AMAZING collection of local and international art, books, and other small finds that make it feel like a new experience every time you visit. They also have virtual art shows featuring new artists every month, offering them platform to show off new work in a time where it might not otherwise happen. Due to Covid, they've taken a lot of precautions for their customers and staff, which I really appreciate. Private shopping sessions can be booked online, and curbside pick up was a really smooth experience!

The scale and selection are right in line with it big-box orange competitor -- lumber, tools, plumbing, electrical, garden, all the usual suspects -- but the vibe is completely different. Staff actually know where things are, the aisles are organized like someone cares, and you don't spend half your visit wandering around hoping to find a single employee. The variety is impressive for a store this size, especially in the garden and home‑repair sections. It's the kind of place where you walk in for one item and walk out with five because you suddenly remembered three projects you've been putting off.
