Can you use the material for an outdoor swing? The material on ours ripped and we need to redo it.

I don't know as I just had an alterations make dining room slipcovers for inside my beach house. I bought extra so she could make two extra slipcovers in case a renter tore one

I hung my swing on a tree branch. You have to buy additional chain and hardware to hang it but if done properly, it works just fine. I tried using part of a rubber hose to protect the tree but this prevented the swing from swinging more freely. I had to remove the hose for it to swing properly.

It would probably be okay outside. I wouldnt want it on the lawn though - you should have it on a harder more stable surface. But otherwise - I would think outside would be fine. However for long term durability - I'd recommend this though only for inside ... maybe get a little tikes set for outside?

I don't think it would hold up well outside. It is very well built/designed but I believe it was intended for inside use. It may do okay on a covered patio that was sheltered from the weather or it might do okay if you lived in a very dry area with little precipitation, but even in direct sun contact, I think the quality would go down quickly. We have it inside and we have loved it. Great toy! Hape products are impressive

That's a tough one. I love these umbrellas and have 3 of them. But I knew that the material would not last long. The price of this umbrella made it obvious that the material was not going to be anything sturdy. Therefore I put them away for the winter and keep them covered with an umbrella cover in the summer unless they are being used. I was thinking that maybe a tailor or seamstress could follow the pattern of the old one and make a new one? Good luck.

It can be used outdoors. But it isn't made of tent material. I was really pleased with this purchase. My three year old great nephew loves it.

Yes it can. Ours was hung in place of a regular swing. We have had it 2 years on our community play ground and it has held up great.

That would work fine. The fibers are a little rough but the more you use it the more supple it will become. We used it for a tree swing

It is made of wood. I guess if you stained it with some kind of wood protective stain you could use it outside.

Not sure how you intend using the material. I used it as a layer between the pool an a condrete patio, for which it worked fine.

We hung ours from a tree it swings. This is not a swing that can stand still it goes back a good foot and a half when swinging on it.I did have to stain it 3 times and then polyurethane it a couple times.

we bought for a 5 year old and it was just for a project. Not even sure if they will put it outside. sorry.

The swing has thick S-hooks to hang it from rings. I'm sure you could figure out a way to hang it from a branch, but it would take some creativity - and safety checking!

I have this under a covered porch, it has a thick finish but It is made in China so I don't know how well it would hold up to daily rain. It is a very well built swing, and as for what to use for a frame in your back yard, I would suggest a 4x4 frame.

Hi...I too had worries. The swing itself is made from parachute material, and there for very sturdy. Just make sure you have a sturdy 4x4 beam and the 300 lb construction grade eye hooks from lowes.....loving it so much that we plan to put 3 beams (similar to an outdoor swing frame)with the 2 'legs' buried in the ground in the garden. For fresh air AND a workout!

Yes, This would be good for outdoor chairs, but I might try to get 3" thick for benches or 2 person swings, but that's just a personal preference. I don't think it's water resistant though, so I would use a more water-resistant fabric/scotchgard or bring it in out of the rain.
