Review on 🌳 Enhance Your Outdoor Swing Experience with Swing Set Accessories by Brian Unruh

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good swing but be careful

We have had this swing since August 2019. We have purchased the recommended updated hardware and it has worked very well until recently. My daughter is 11 years old and weighs about 110 pounds. She came into the house last week screaming and bleeding from her side and knees. The hole where the chain attaches to the plastic seat broke, sending her to the ground. I usually inspect these units very closely when I mow the lawn weekly as we have had problems with the swing in the past. Before that there was no damage to the hinge part. Unfortunately, the ring through which the chain runs is also made of plastic and didn't hold up. It would be nice to see them switch to metal rings so this doesn't happen to others. I'm not trying to discourage people from buying this, but I'm only reviewing to make the company and the public aware of this deficiency. My daughter has never used it except for sitting and rocking and she is the only one who uses it. It doesn't stand or do anything else that could lead to premature wear. I've added photos of the damaged ring.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not as thick as other swings
