Swing sets can be made of a number of different materials, but a wood swing set is definitely the best.
Some individuals favor plastic because they cost less, but fading and cracking are standard troubles you will not have with wood. A metal swing set will last longer, but you have no doubt witnessed them bend, dent, or rust after a period of time. Wood has troubles too. For example it can, over time, splinter or decompose. Even so the answer is painless. Just purchase your wood pre-treated and slivering and decomposing are much less of a problem. And no one can debate the fact that a wood swing set is really a glorious creation. A wood swing set is more than a toy, it is a wonderful part of your landscaping.
But there is more than just strength and good looks. Well these sets are ideal for the do it yourselfer. Just take it out of the box. Almost all of them are ready to be assembled. Everything is pre-drilled and fitted and you can generally put it together in a single afternoon with standard tools most people have around the home. Some sets are even customized so they can be altered for not level surfaces. And if you want to grow, many wood swing sets are constructed so they can be added to every year.
Cedar swing sets, when treated properly, are the best for both strength and looks.
