Swing Sets with Cubby: Does Size Really Matter?

Swing Sets with Cubby: Does Size Really Matter?

POV: You promised the kids a swing set. Now they've decided they need their own house too.

"MUM! Can we get a cubby?"

"And a swing!"

"Actually, can we have THREE swings?"

Crikey! At this rate, the kids will need their own postcode.

One minute you're shopping for a swing set. The next, you're planning a mini backyard neighbourhood.

But here's the fun part.

Maybe your little ones would love a cubby for their imaginary café, while the older kids enjoy swinging.

Or perhaps you'd prefer a smaller swing set with cubby and leave room for a medium trampoline.

After all, who says every backyard needs the biggest setup?

Should I Choose a C1, C2 or C3 Swing Set with Cubby?

Choosing between a C1, C2 or C3 swing set with cubby depends on your backyard measurements, the number of play positions you want, your children's ages and how much room you'd like for other activities.

Got three kids? You might like a configuration with more swinging options.

Got a smaller backyard? A more compact cubby combination could leave extra room for a kick of the footy.

Planning to add monkey bars later? That's worth thinking about now, too.

Some families love having one big swing set with cubby. Others prefer splitting the space between a smaller swing set, a trampoline and a climbing area.

It's your backyard, your family's adventure!

Before making a choice, compare the C1, C2 and C3 measurements, recommended ages, weight ratings and the Safety & Site Planning Guide.

C1 – One Swing + Cubby One swing, one cubby and plenty of room for little backyard adventures!

C2 – Two Swings + Cubby Double the swings, double the fun! More room for the kids to swing side by side.

C3 – Three Swings + Cubby Three swings, one cubby and even more ways for the whole crew to play!

It's also worth understanding Vuly's warranty and the available extended warranty options for eligible components.

1, 2 or 3 swings? The choice is yours!

Got an Aquarius who refuses to have the same playground as everyone else?

Or a Pisces who can turn an ordinary swing into a magical flying carpet?

One loves to be different. The other has an imagination with absolutely no limits.

So, what kind of backyard magic does your family believe in?
