Are the products suitable for adults to use?

Our products have been designed for all ages of children to use however we are happy and confident that our Swing Frames, with their 12cm diameter top poles and high quality fully through swing points, can carry a combined weight of 200kgs, so usable by the whole family. We believe that a good quality timber play set is an investment and should be enjoyed and used by children as they grow into teens and adult hood.   

For the individual swing seats, maximum weights are advised by the manufactures and vary according to seat type. With the exception of the Basket Swing the maximum advised weight for our Garden Range Swing Seats is 70kgs (roughly 11 stones).

The following swing seats are most commonly chosen for adult use.

Wooden Swing Seat

Although this product has been designed for children to use it is also suitable and regularly bought for adult use.

The manufacturers recommended maximum weight is about 70kg – approximately 11st

Deluxe Rubber Swing Seat

Often thought to be more comfortable than a wooden seat and the soft surface also adds more grip.

The manufacturers recommended maximum weight is about 70kg – approximately 11st
