Why We use Southern Yellow Pine!
Southern Yellow Pine (SYP). SYP is almost three times as dense as Redwood and Cedar. This extra strength makes the gym set more durable. It also eliminates the need for metal reinforcements along horizontal beams and/or connecting points of Redwood sets.
Compare Steps! This is something you can see!
Classic Swingsets, all feature flat steps 2"x 4" on angled access ladders for easier climbing. Little children can climb into the gym with confidence and security.
Look close to some other sets that have 2" x 4" nailed straight up, to the frame.
Not to easy to climb even for older kids. Small ones will find it so difficult they won't enjoy the fort or slide.
Also look for the round dowels in the ladder; this is just a cheaper way to build.

The redwood misconception Which Is Best? Redwood? Or Southern Yellow Pine with A.C.Q.Plus The first choice you typically need to make when buying a backyard swingset is the type of wood used: Pine or Redwood? We've extensively researched the type of timber used to build our Swingsets and overwhelmingly continue to choose Pine. It is plain and simply the best choice for safety, strength, longevity and ease of maintenance. Classic Swingsets are only made of arsenic-free, A.C.Q. protect your children and our environment. Oftentimes, Redwood Swingsets have a chunkier appearance and colored steel braces for support. This is simply because they have to, in order to be strong enough to hold your children. They may tout no "toxic" chemicals to scare parents into believing their Redwood Swingsets are more natural and safe, when actually all Redwood Swingsets need a commercial sealant annually to prevent it from turning an ugly black color. The choice is a no brainer, Southern Yellow Pine with A.C.Q. Plus
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. But sometimes the picture can be deceiving, I've seen some pictures of swingsets that look great. But the truth is there not. So how do you know what you are getting? Some times you have to go look, if you can't do that. You can look at the total weight, also you can tell by the size of wood it's made of. Less wood = less cost. Thin untreated cedar floor and side panels cannot compare to #1 ACQ Pine.
