So you’ve been thinking about getting “The Family Swing Set”. Got kids. Got Family. Why not? Have you looked into the different ones that are available? Have you researched quality and construction? Safety and / or chemical concerns of the materials that are used, perhaps? How about what this beast is going to look like a few years from now? What are the maintenance requirements annually? Will you need a Master’s in Engineering to get the blasted thing up? Will it take a month? How hard can it be? It is a child’s plaything after all… right?
We were quite honestly shocked by the amount of information and the questions that one needs answered in order to make the best choice when it comes to swing sets. We came through yet again for you though! Here it is… Drumroll please… Without further adieu, the product of months of research and our Favorite Swing Set Company is… Kid’s Creations!!
We chose Kid’s Creations for every reason. We were surprised though that the highest quality set was also the best price by comparison! Buying from Kids Creations allows you to purchase directly from the manufacturer, and in turn you save a TON of money! How’s 50% off sound?? Oooh yeah. They also won us over for their commitment to being the safest and highest quality swing set on the market. You can even custom design your own at the same great prices!!! Most of the elements come pre-assembled too so when you go to build it you’ll be amazed by how quickly it goes up! (Makes dad look like a real pro-builder too!) Take a look at these side by side comparisons of some of the materials…
Many of the woods that are used in other swing sets today are either not safe due to chemical treatments or simply will just not hold up to weathering and the test of time. Kids Creations uses 100% premium Con-Heart Redwood exclusively – the highest grade right from the center of the Redwood tree. They are the only company in their industry to do so. Overkill? We think not. Less is less, more is more and the BEST IS THE BEST! Con-Heart Redwood is naturally weather and rot resistant, bug resistant and is virtually splinter free! In today’s world as parents you just can’t be too safe when it comes to chemical treatments too. With Kids Creations there simply are none. NO chemicals at all. We love that. The fact that it is rot resistant naturally is a huge plus too. Unlike many other brands of swing sets, you don’t have to stain or seal it… EVER! Maintenance free and again, no chemicals – LOVE IT! They are also committed to buying only wood that has been sustainably forested and take our protecting our environment seriously which as parents we all appreciate.
How’s assembly, you ask? Well, you could practically land a helicopter on ours, so it took a little bit of time. We counted it out as about 30 hours total, meaning that if we had 3 guys it would have been ten hours. Hardest part? The twisty slide. Easiest part? Everything else!! This is MUCH less of your time (or your favorite contractor’s:)!!!) than competitor’s products would take because so many things are pre-assembled! The directions that came with our set were absolutely detailed and custom designed as blueprints for our custom set. When I had a question (twice), I called them and even on the weekend someone was available and helped me resolve my issue immediately! Excellent customer service… redefined!!!
Are you one of those people who like to customize everything? Do you look at things always thinking how you would have designed it, or how you would have wished it different? Do you maybe need to fit an odd shaped space in your yard? Look. No. Further. As mentioned before, Kids Creations has a system on their website where you can design the absolute swingset of your dreams, yet still carry over that amazing 50% off discount like with the pre-designed sets!!! (WARNING: This can get addictive… you know… something you sit at the computer with a bowl of popcorn with for wayyy too long style addictive.) Single tower or double? Two swings or four? Did you want the rock climbing wall on the front or off to the side? Where was the helicopter landing pad supposed to go again??? You get the picture. You make it what you want. You are in control. You are the designer. You can fit it within your budget. You’da boss. It’s all about you. Give it a try and you’ll see what we’re saying! Want to see a catalog instead?
