Kite Hill Metal Swing Set with Nest Swing & Slide

A swing set earns its place by being busy. This one runs a little over eleven feet across the lawn and gives three jobs to do at once: a nest swing wide enough to lie back in, two swing seats hanging side by side, and a slide off the end of the frame for whoever is finished swinging. The tubes are heavy-duty steel with a powder-coated finish, braced in an A-frame and pinned down with ground stakes, rated to 352 lbs overall and made for children 3 to 8.

Why families love it

• The nest swing measures 36.6″ by 32.7″ — room to sit cross-legged, lie back and watch the sky, or spin slowly until someone calls dinner.
• Two U-shaped swing seats hang at 13.8″ off the ground, low enough for a child to climb on without a boost and close enough together for two to swing in step.
• A 55.9″ slide runs off the end of the frame, which keeps things moving when there are more children in the yard than there are seats.
• The nest swing ropes adjust across a 52.4″–69.3″ range, dropping the seat as low as 10.2″ for a small child and lifting it to 27.2″ as they grow.
• Heavy-duty steel tubes with a powder-coated finish resist wear, and the materials are UV-resistant and water-resistant, so the set can stay out in real weather.
• The A-frame comes with ground stakes, and the frame is rated to 88 lbs per person and 352 lbs overall.

Designed for

Recommended for children 3 to 8 — the years when a backyard stops being scenery and turns into somewhere to go. The frame measures 132.7″ long, 72.4″ wide and 73.6″ tall, roughly eleven feet by six and just over six feet high, so it wants an open, level stretch of lawn with clear air in front of and behind the seats and a run-out at the bottom of the slide. That makes it a lawn piece rather than a patio one. Compare it with the rest of our swing sets, or read the buying guide if you are still working out how much of the yard to give over to play.

Assembly & care

Assembly is required and the manual is in the box. Give yourself a level patch of ground and a second pair of hands for lifting the top rail, and drive the ground stakes all the way in before the first ride. Check the stakes and the hardware again after the first few weeks of use and at the start of each season. Wipe the powder-coated tubes with a damp cloth, and bring the nest swing and the fabric parts indoors over winter if you have somewhere to put them. Our assembly and care guide covers the seasonal routine.

Measurements are supplier-provided. Allow a little extra room around the footprint for walking space.
