We have a swing it set that is many many years old.
A neighbor got a Costco set last year & it already started falling apart.

Cuz the swingit ones are way better quality and look nicer in the yard.

They're maintenance-free vinyl covered wood with 20+ year warranty.

you can customize everything which you can't get off the shelf. Like you can get more swings, if you want, or a monkey beam swing beam, different elements, mix and match.

really nice clean colors, like white and grey.

Swing it is vinyl which can last 20 years verses Costco which is wood which can last about 5 years maybe less. Also wood needs upkeep vinyl doesn’t need much. The swing it ones are also geared for all ages, Costco ones are up to age 7/8. One is a long term investment the other is a short term investment.

After all my research and giving up on my dream of vinyl because of cost I went with the lifetime brand. It’s metal so better than wood with upkeep and years.
