Review on Trekassy Platform Textilene Resistance Durable by Joe Jordan

Others have commented on how difficult this swing set is to put together and I was hesitant to buy based on these reviews. I'm so glad I bought it anyway. When assembling it was very tight, it was very doable and not that hard to figure out how to put it together. Very durable construction, ropes, straps and fittings. My grandkids haven't jumped on it yet, but I have no doubts that all three with their skinny little asses will fit on it and enjoy it with no problem. There are 12, 9 and 5 of them and they are pretty thin. The metal frame is encased in a nice thick layer of thick neoprene padding, which I felt might make assembly a bit tricky. Gives the swing a nice soft edge. I hung the swing the same way I would hang a tire swing. I mounted 4 straps on top, hooked them to a carabiner, attached it to a strong 1000lb test chain and routed it to a 360 degree hanger which I attached to the swivel head. In this way, the platform swing can swing back and forth as well as in a circle. Damn, this looks so fun I might even jump on it! In summary, this is a very well made product. Strong and durable rope, heavy duty fabric, strong fittings. Assembly was tight but not impossible. An excellent choice in my opinion.
