Flexible Flyer 41576T Star Chaser Swing Set Review

Flexible Flyer 41576T Star Chaser Swing Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This swing set has led to more frustration than any product that I have ever purchased. It is just awful and should be avoided at all cost. There are many problems:
1. The instructions that came with the set were not encased in a plastic baggie. Thus, when the box that the set became wet, the instructions were ruined: soggy and literally disintegrating.
2. As a result, I went to the web site to download a PDF version of the instructions. The instructions were printed front side and back side on a very large sheet -- far too large for any printer available to a consumer. As a result, I had to take screen shots of the sheet and try to piece them together. (Of course, the print was very faint and my printed out screen shots are very difficult to read.)
3. The parts are terribly labeled -- from the large pieces down to the smallest pieces.
4. Many of the parts are indistinguishable to the naked eye (some differ in size by literally 1/16 of an inch).
5. As a result, when one completes one arduous step, one may very well find that used he used the wrong parts and then have to start over.
6. The parts coming from the factory are of terrible quality. Holes are not punched through on the frame and quite a lot of effort is required just to get the parts to fit together.
I could go on, but I think that list is a start to an explanation of why this product should not be purchased.

Little Tikes Swing Along Castle Review

Little Tikes Swing Along Castle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We purchased this playset for my son's first birthday, and we're very pleased! Although he's too young yet to climb ON the toy, he has a great time crawling through the castle and around and under the swing. We can also help him go down the slide, which he loves! He will definitely grow into this adorable and durable playset and it will get more and more fun as he gets older.
We have it in his indoor playroom, which it is sized perfectly for. It would also work well outdoors. The swing is a bit of a clunker, however. It doesn't swing very high, and only keeps his attention for a few minutes. That would NOT influence my decision, though, and I would purchase this set again if I had the chance!

Kettler Deluxe 4 Child Multiplay Swingset Review

I bought this for my 1 year old grandson. I looked everywhere for a simple sturdy swing frame that we could put a baby swing on that would last him until he's older. The other small swingsets are flimsy. I feel it's worth the price & has other things you can buy separately as the child gets older. Read description carefully. It only comes with the 2 swings, not the glider.

Bring the park to your backyard with the Kettler multiplay swingset. Built for up to four kids, the swingset will make your home the life of the neighborhood. The swingset comes with two board swings just like the ones you knew and loved as a kid, along with a single open station that accommodates a separately sold Kettler accessory. Options for the open station include a Kettler Gondola, Surfboard, or Glider, each of which supports two kids for maximum swinging fun. The swingset itself is extremely sturdy, with a high-carbon steel frame and a fade- and rust-resistant polyester powder-coated finish. And to keep children safe during play, the swingset includes tough ground anchors. The swingset measures 126 by 85 by 78.5 inches (W x H x D).

Tire Swing - Horse Review

This is a great swing, very durable, thick and heavy even for the bigger kids! While we did have a little bit of time into the installation, the result was perfect!
We have a wooden swingset (Rainbow) it required a hole drilled through the 6 inch beam, good thing my husband is good with a long drill bit.
The instructions were perfect, it just was a little more than just clipping the swing onto the carabiners.
It would be great for anyone who is planning on hanging it from a tree- very simple installation in that case.
