We bought this swing for my son's 1st birthday. He loved climbing on it, using it as a fort and racing his cars down the slide. We never had any problems with it tipping over, it has always been very sturdy. He did out grow the swing quickly because it was very low to the ground so he ended up using it for his stuffed animals instead.

We kept it on an enclosed patio with sun exposure and the swing straps did rot. The Hedstrom company replaced all 4 straps and the seatbelt for free, they were very nice.

One nice feature is that the slide and ladder fold up so it won't take up quite as much space when it's not being used. Overall, I would recommend this product, just don't expect much from the swing.

My son was 10 months when I bought this. He loved it for about a month, maybe two, but then hardly ever played on it. The slide is fine, but the swing is much too low to the ground to be effective. It's pendulem motion is very short. My son never askes to be pushed in it...(and he loves his outdoor swing.)

It is, however, made well. We have it outside now, next to the pool and my son, now 18 months, likes to go down it into the water where we catch him. I like the canopy because it provides shade.

I would recommend purchasing a slide alone, or at least don't expect to use the swing much. If you get a good deal on this, it would probably be worth it, ...

My son received this as a birthday gift from his grandparents for his first birthday. From the start, we knew the swing wasn't very useful because it has such a short range of motion and sits so low. He has used it more as a rocking chair, because his feet hit the ground before he was two. The slide is good for little ones, and when my son was two and it wasn't long enough to be exciting, we got more fun out of it by setting the end of it in his little pool. The steering wheel was far and away my son's most favorite part of this toy. He practically spent all summer driving! When he was 2 1/2, he was too tall to stand under the canopy, but ocassionally would get up and sit on the deck to "drive". Now we're getting him a bigger swing set, but his little brother will be the perfect size for it this summer. We'll probably get about 4 years use out of it between our two boys. Also, we live in New England and left this outdoors during two winters. It hasn't rusted or cracked! Very durable!
