- What age is the Tanglewood swing set for?
- It is rated from age 3. The tower and slide suit younger children, while the swings and trapeze keep older kids interested, so it works well for siblings.
- How much space do I need?
- The set itself is about 175 inches wide and 142 inches deep. Leave clearance around the swings and slide plus a safety surface, so plan on a noticeably larger footprint than the frame.
- How many children can use it at once?
- The 1,080 lb total load capacity covers several children, but the two swings and one slide limit how many can play simultaneously. It is best for two to four kids.
- Does the wood need treating?
- The cedar comes pre-stained, but owners report it benefits from resealing every year or two to prevent graying and cracking.
- What is included in the box?
- The kit includes the wooden frame, playhouse tower, slide, two swings, trapeze bar and hardware. You supply the tools and a level site.
- How hard is it to assemble?
- Expect a long project. Two adults typically need most of a day, and sorting the pre-cut pieces before starting saves time.
- Where is the Backyard Discovery Tanglewood Swing Set cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $1,199.00, as of our latest check.
