Do kids like to use this more as a swing or to hang from?

My grandkids love to hang from this and do tricks or hang upside down or just spin, they love it.

My children use it to hang from. I have it on a rope between two trees and they hang and kick off of the trees back and forth.

Hang from- it is not a sitting swing you put your hands on the bar and twist around very fun!

All 3 of my kids (10,8,5) and my neighbor kids prefer twirling. If you looking for an awesome swing, look up Platform swing by Hearth Song. Both items are working out great on our Normal swing set!

I would say no. I had a few that my kids snapped together just for fun. Getting them apart was not fun, and when I put back together they didn't seem to hold as well.

Yes you can. It just hooked into the rings for the swing. However, I will say it doesn't swing very high. It was hard for my kids to get it to go back and forth much. After a few weeks of trying, the kids wanted the regular swing back on and this now sits in our garage. I have 3 kids ages 4, 7, and 9.

I got the longer one because (1) my grandchildren are between 12 and 16 years old. So thought if they liked it the 25 foot would be better. However, their father has yet to put the cable (or rope) for them to grab if they lose their balance. Since that has not been done I don't believe they are deriving the fun they would have had had the rope/cable been put up. In retrospect maybe I waited to long to get it. Having said that, I felt like if they liked it and used it a lot certainly the longer would be better. I'm just not sure this answer will help you.

I personally wouldn't feel comfortable putting a little baby in this swing unless they have really good head and neck control and can sit up unassisted. While the seat back isn't straight upright, like a chair, the harness isn't very tight; and I could see a little one's head falling forward if they aren't able to hold their head up too well.

If heavier kids will be swinging on it, you might need to cement it in, so you won't have to worry about cutting at all. I cemented mine in the ground.

You could hang it from a swing set, though you might need to purchase some sort of hook attachment from a hardware store in orderfor the swing to attach to the swing set hooks. Just keep in mind the width of this swing since you will have side bars to consider on a swing set.

It's not as much a bouncer as a swing, but I hung it indoors. I hung this when my baby was 10 months. He still loves it at 15 months. It's very cute!

Yes, I use the swing with my child. It is very sturdy as long as it is installed correctly!

I wouldn't use it as a substitute for a swing. My advice is that a battery operated swing is a worthwhile investment. Fisher Price papasan cradle swing is a great one!

The swing is 4 foot wide and can handle up to 4 or 5 kids at a time. It is very solidly built and I think can hold up to 600 pounds. We have had multiple adults and kids on at the same time. The biggest issue is whether you have a strong enough swing beam to handle the weight. It takes the place of where two swings normally would go. We placed it on a 12 foot swing beam with one additional swing on the end and it has plenty of room. We also used a 7 foot high swing beam and the swing sits about a 1 1/2 foot off of the ground with regular attachments.

I bought commercial swing hangers from Amazon and they work great. They hold 300 pounds and bolt to the wood beam of the swingset we built. This swing is one of my best purchases for my grandchildren. My granddaughter takes a book out and lays on the swing and reads. I would definitely buy ths swing again. Hope this helps.

Its just like an outdoor swing so kiddos can go as high as they want or as slow as they want. Could bump the inside of the doorframe could hit something while swinging . major supervision is needed with this unless you have a very wide open space .

This is a great swing, and I think you would like it. As you would have to move your hangers in seven inches on each side, might not be a bad idea to just make sure your swing frame can handle this.

I hung my swing on a tree branch. You have to buy additional chain and hardware to hang it but if done properly, it works just fine. I tried using part of a rubber hose to protect the tree but this prevented the swing from swinging more freely. I had to remove the hose for it to swing properly.

We have it in a toddler playground and it has worked well so far with children 18 months and older. These are children without physical challenges. This swing was purchased to use with a five year old with physical needs, and it's perfect for him.

I think it would depend on the child's height. Some of the attachments may be too short. (Particularly the rope and rings) The swing should be okay though.
