Is there a weight limit on this swing? I'm thinking about getting it for my Nephews and Nieces to have fun with at my house but they range in age from 8 to 17 and are varying weights. I've seen several others but the weight limit is like 100lbs and...

I would worry about what the swing is hanging on (how strong is that branch?) The nylon rope is not thin and flimsy. The plastic seat is very strong, but it's hard plastic and I weighed 160 when I tried it out. Besides not being very comfortable on an flabby old butt with more hanging off than on, it wasn't a pretty sight.

I'm not sure of the rated limit. I know the swing will hold 240 pounds which is the weight of my daughter and I. We have both hung from ours at the same time multiple times. Hope this helps.

We use this swing at the daycare where I work and it works great, even with some of our older/larger babies @ around 14 months and up to 20-30 pounds. Our only complaint is battery prices, because swings don't ever stay empty at the daycare.

I don't think they publish a weight limit. This is a smaller chair scaled to kids. Given that it reclines back, I'm guessing that the mechanics involved would break under too much weight, unlike a basic wooden chair that can hold kids and adults, despite a small size. I haven't dared to sit on it and I'm 5'5"/125 lbs. My son is almost 3 and has had it since he was 1.5. I expect it to last through 5 and then perhaps it will start getting to be too small. I hope this helps.

I tested this well built swing with 200 lb. weight before using. It's built for a small toddler so weight limit is not an issue. You will not be disappointed - the swing is very high quality (materials and construction)!

It's basically for toddlers, so I would guess up to 40 lbs. When I bought it, it was for my then 6 mo. old and 2 yr. old grandchildren, but I would think they'd get at least couple more yrs. out of it. The swing is sturdy, as is the rope. I guess it would depend more on the rope you use to hoist it up (if putting it in a tree, as we did.) Hope this helps. I did NOT find this a flimsy product.

When the package arrived, it said it was safe for +/- 130 lbs. We called the manufacturer and they advised to the lower weight as we'll. that being said, we've had 3-4 kids on it at once and it's holding up great. Definitely one of the best outdoor toys we have!

My 4 year old son weighs 40lbs. The slide sways and bows and little as he slides down but it's still sturdy enough for a 50lb child. It's definitely not designed for adults. I think swing-n-slide has a more expensive, bulkier slide also available. I hope this helps.

I'm pretty large 300+ lbs and I've used the swings and been in the fort. Haven't went down the slide. I believe the slide says 150 lbs but I've had friends closer to 200 lbs go down it.

My son is 5 months old and 18 lbs, and the swing does NOT swing him at all, even on the highest setting. If I take him out, away it goes! From my experience, I'd say the 25 lb weight limit is not accurate.

I heard from a friend that the weight limit is 80 lbs, but not sure. I know that the seat is adjustable to accommodate different heights,and as kids grow. I think 8 yrs old is the upper limit so possibly go by average weight/height for an 8 yr old, else check with Radio Flyer.

The swings can be adjusted in height so there is no problem there. As far as being sturdy, I have swung on them a bit with some creaking and movement in the structure that makes me nervous. This is with really swinging not just mildly sitting and swaying. I'm a small person (5'4" and 120lbs) so I probably wouldn't recommend having adults on it unless they are particularly small in frame. Hope this helps.

Hi Peter: The My Bouncer line of bounce house products were designed targeting users(kids) age 6 and younger, however, The Bouncer House can support up kid weigs up to 75 lbs(or heavier), and a few of the products also provides a mix of playing surfaces(ball pit area), which had no weight limit. Please check the following Amazon listing: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AG8CWAW ; as well as Amazon listing: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BJTFAX8 . Please keep in mind, the ball pit area DO NOT provide a bouncing surface, and will require a good supply of 3" balls, such as Amazon listing: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0072VZLHM . We WOULD NOT recommend Amazon listing: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006KDW2GG , as the sliding part of the structure may not support older kid(s) with heavier weight. If you have any additional question, please feel free to contact us by phone or by email, please provide us with your callback tel# and the best time to return your call. CMS

I don't know if the directions state a limit but I will tell you that this chair is extremely durable as we have had two and put it through severe use. The reason why I replaced my first one was due to staining and not any type of breakage. My adult son with autism (about 155lbs) has this swing in his therapy room hung from a commercial grade tire swing swivel. This is definitely not what any manufacturer would probably recommend, but it helps make my son's day better and we have a safe surface so please don't judge me. My son is on the swing up to two hours a day off and on and puts it through its paces - much like a tire swing on a playground, swinging, spinning, etc. I imagine if a buyer used it for its intended use-relaxing on the porch for example, it could withstand the established weight limit with ease. I think rather than the swing being an issue it is how well you anchor the hook to attach the swing to your porch, beam or whatever - unless you buy a stand. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure. But it is a STRONG swing. My grandson is 35 lbs. and he will be swinging in it for at least several more years...

I have had it for half a year and still love it. I am over 200lbs and have no issue with multiple family members swinging at once. Also, with three little kids, it gets jumped on a bit and I have had no issues. Remember it is 100% self assembly, so be sure everything is put together correctly and tightly and you should be good.

25lbs. We had the older girl version of this swing and it swung my daughter with no issues at 21 lbs at 10 months old.
