Consider the future: Instead of buying a playset that will suit your child’s needs right now, consider how your child will grow and change over the next few years and buy something that they will be able to use for a long time.
Plastic, wood, or metal?: Plastic is the least expensive (and best for younger children), but it is also the least durable. Wood is durable and can take a hefty beating. Metal is the most durable of the three, but it can rust and get hot-to-the-touch in direct sunlight.
Pre-made vs. custom built: A custom-built playset may be less expensive than a pre-made playset, but it can also be more dangerous. To make sure your set is put together correctly and safe to use, it’s a good idea to let a professional assemble and install it, particularly with more complicated playsets.
Assemble it yourself: To save on installation, purchase a playset that is partially or fully assembled or one that is easy to assemble. Playset assembly is a great DIY project that will help save you some serious cash – just be very careful to assemble at your own risk.
Prep beforehand: Prepare the ground for the playset before making the purchase. That way, the space will be clear and ready to go when your playset arrives!
Think about ground covering: Rubber tiles are the most expensive ground covering options, so look into wood chips, pea gravel, or sand for a cost-effective alternative.
