Review on High-performance Trampoline Trapeze by Eastern Jungle Gym by Mark Toth

Only time will tell Play sets and toys

It's hard to hang this without it being crooked. One side of the plastic coated chain is slightly bent as if it was folded in transit, so whichever link I installed, it's only slightly different in length on one side. Doesn't come with its own snap hooks, you need to buy them separately or use from other swings (we have multiple snap hooks so it's not a big deal for us). I want my husband to tinker with this a bit more and see if we can get the pole to hang straight. The A-frame swing we built is straight, and the swing gear is straight, the other swing hangs fine, so I don't know what the problem is. It's not SUPER crooked - just maybe a quarter of an inch, but if that bothers you, you might need to try a different product. The plastic coating on the chains seems handy so it doesn't pinch, I just think it was better to put it on or something so a chain doesn't hang out weirdly. The bar itself is lightweight (well, if it smacks a kid in the face it won't do much harm) and the hooks have thin little washers at the top and bottom that dangle a bit (not sure what they're for). The hand rings seem to be the strongest, nicest and thickest and they seem to be quite tight like they won't come loose. I think the paint is of decent quality and the color should hold up well. The plastic cover comes up too high on the links so it hangs very low. I have to cut off some plastic to hang them high enough for my 5ft teen to use. All in all - decent quality, but beware of the one-sided effect and be prepared to find solutions.

Pros
  • FULLY ASSEMBLED: This product comes fully assembled, all you have to do is hang it up and let the kids play.
Cons
  • Very expensive
