Well, there seems to be a lot of pieces. OK so I’ve had this for about a month now and it’s cracked in the little storage areas on each side. Totally just came apart right in the middle where a drink would sit. so I had to edit my initial review. The screws are also coming loose, which were once tight so I don’t know if the warm weather is affecting it which it shouldn’t, quality doesn’t seem to be the greatest, and there’s a little hairline cracks throughout the stand

I’m still waiting for my new swing to arrive so I haven’t fully unboxed this beauty and set it up yet- I will update my review when I do that of course! But just opening it and looking at it the material feels great and sturdy,

I was excited to put together this swing stand after already purchasing a metal one and finding this beautiful base with drink holders and a canopy. However, I’m a little nervous as to how it will hold up. The wood does not seem like it will be very sturdy. In fact it was breaking and chipping off as I was putting it together. The instructions are very clear and simple and probably only took me about half hour to assemble, but I’m just not optimistic about how long this will hold up against the elements.

You need two people to put this bad boy together. It wasn’t hard, but it wasn’t simple either. The wood does seem to be chipping off as we put it together and I’m not real sure how long this swing stand will hold up over the years due to weather as the wood is already splintering off.

We were very disappointed with this swing stand. It is very cheap, flimsy wood. It looked like it had previously been opened. There were spots all over the cover. Paint missing, and chunks taken out. There was also a horrible smell as soon as you opened the box. The hardware was missing to complete this so we had to go get more, and the nuts that were included were missing threads.
