I am looking to get a good quality swing set. I would love to get a vinyl one, but its out of my budget. Which company offers great quality and prices?
-I am not limited by size because I have a large backyard
-requirements. minimum 3 swings, monkey bars, slide.
-would love something fun geared to a bit older child, but not necessary
-no metal bars. would get too hot from the sun

What is your budget? Are you trying to very economical and are you DIY type?
You can buy kits Where they give you all the hardware and instructions and you have to buy the wood. It comes out very economical - and you control the quality of the wood used.
you can get with some wood or no wood and then add add-ons like monkey bars.
As an example: https://www.swing-n-slide.com/.....-Kits
We have a set where you just add the 4x4s and it was a fraction of the cost of the other sets (ours has a 2 piece slide, if I were to do it again I would spend the extra on a solid slide).
Also Cosco has very nice swingsets if you are a member there.

We bought a vinyls set with 4 swings monkey bars and a slide from mr. fence located on the 9 in Howell ( about 15 mins from lakewood)
Love my set. Holding up beautifully
My neighbors that bought the wood ones ( Costco etc) have had issues with seinset splintering, needing to be refinished etc, mine looks brand new. Very worthwhile to spend a bit more .., ( I only spent about $1600 I think including installation...)

Thanks for the replies. My husband and I aren't handy. I would need it to be installed too.

Did you get a specific brand from me fence?
I wonder if they all come from the same company.

Are monkey bars bars metal?
Someone upthread mentioned they'd get hot, but aren't they all metal?

The Rainbow lifetime guarantee sounds wonderful, but do a quick Google search to see hundreds of complaints that they often blame the consumer for the problem to avoid standing behind it, and even when they honor it, it may only include replacement parts, but they still bill you for shipping, which can be quite expensive.

I have a swingset from greentree wood works and would not recommend. We paid extra to have the wood painted with a finish. but it didn't last and the swingset is getting splintery and the wood is growing moldy (and we have no trees in our backyard!). It will have to be replaced soon, I'm hoping for another couple seasons. Better go with vinyl.

Swing it was great. The have really quality amish swingsets. I was also very happy with their customer service. I made a few phone calls and they were cheaper than some other local places. They're definitely considerably more than costco but you get what you pay for.

Is Swingit the company that's been advertising lately with a picture of (the real Uncle Moishy? I checked out their web page and it looked like they were significantly more expensive than other companies I looked into.
