I have a wooden swing and I needed something it could hang from. This frame does the trick. I have it sitting on dirt so the safety factor of slippage is nil. I've had it for one season and it stayed out in the elements at all times. Still looks great.

I searched for a long time trying to decide on the best porch swing frame. I needed one for the swing I bought my parents for their second home. Unfortunately, I asked them where they wanted the swing to go and they decided to put the porch on the deck.

After considering building a frame into the deck, buying a wood frame, etc... I went with the bronze Jack post frame. It is perfect. It does not take up a lot of space and is still sturdy. The frame is low to the ground which would be a problem if you are tall and want the swing to be higher off of the ground. Also, because of the low stance of the swing, you will not be able to swing high and far. These are issues are not problems for where and how the swing is being used.

The delivery was as promised and even though the box was damaged, the frame was fine. It was easy to assemble. The finish has no noted defects. The color goes very well with the deck and the logs of the home. Of note, this was the least expensive frame option that I researched and yet it was most probably the best choice.

I would buy this product again.

The bronze finishing looks great and I do like the strength. Assembly is easy but requires your own tools as the manufacturer didn't include disposable nut wrenches. The only other drawback is that the instructions warn that a chain or cable must be used across the bottom (in the same direction as the cross bar) to prevent the legs from spreading when on surfaces such as tile or wood. That is not visually pleasing.

This last complaint isn't used in my rating but must be said. I ordered two and only received one so far but the seller says my order is complete. My guess is the shipping person didn't bother to read "two" (but their accounting did charge me for two). I hope this gets resolved quickly.

Update: I did notify the company and they sent the second one. I do not use the chain as the system has worked fine without the additional support if the legs are on firm ground.
