The Geometric Dome Climber Play Center from Lifetime delivers long lasting fun and entertainment for up to 6 climbers from ages 3 to 12 years old. Perhaps one of the most, versatile and captivating pieces of play equipment available, the geometric dome provides exciting, imaginative, and challenging play for young people that helps them develop strength, coordination, spatial awareness, and balance while they have fun. The five-foot tall, 10-foot diameter dome structure provides the multiple purposes of a physical challenge, a playhouse, and as a platform for multi-sensory imaginative play for children from the age of 3 and up.

Constructed of heavy-duty, weather and rust-resistant powder coated steel that does not retain heat, the Lifetime Dome climber is built to last. Each steel section has a 1.5-inch diameter ideal for gripping and is 33 inches long. Real rock climbing hand-grips of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) connect the steel poles, providing comfortable accessibility for children. The Lifetime Geometric Dome Climber has a 10-foot diameter and measures 5 feet tall, high enough for fun and challenge, but low enough to reduce the risk of serious injury. It is recommended to construct your dome climber with a 6-foot radius of clear space around it and to cover the ground below the dome climber with mulch (see depth recommendations below). The dome climber is backed by a limited 1-year warranty.
