Lifespan Kids Lynx Steel Swing Set with Nest Swing and Glider

This set has four stations on one galvanised, powder coated steel frame with a green top bar: a two-seat glider, an 85cm black mat nest swing, a trapeze bar with rings and a moulded swing seat. The frame is 360cm wide, 198cm deep and 187cm tall, with anchor kits for soil or concrete footings. The seats hang on adjustable ropes.

This set compared to our other sets

It is a lighter, kids-only set: each station is rated to 50kg (each side of the glider to 25kg), compared to up to 140kg for our 150cm nest swing with swing set stand. It suits younger children, and several can use it at once.

Setting up

Allow 2m of clear space around the frame, and keep the swings at least 40cm off the ground. Do not set it up on concrete, asphalt or any other hard surface. The manual warns that grass can turn to hard-packed earth where children play most. It lists bark mulch, wood chips, fine sand and fine gravel as shock absorbing surfaces, laid 150mm to 300mm deep depending on the material and the fall height. The loose surface should reach in front of and behind the swings to twice the height of the beam. It is delivered in one carton, 206 x 24.5 x 18cm, with a boxed weight of 34kg. Adult set-up and supervision are required at all times, and it is not suitable for children under 3. It is for home use only. The steel can rust, especially near the sea, so check it each season.
