I purchased this item to use indoors for the special needs ministry at our church. The teenagers absolutely love it! It swings back and forth, side to side and spins 360 degrees as well. So, it is great for kids with sensory processing issues. It surrounds them enough to give that secure feeling without making them feel too closed in. When it arrived, it did have one broken plastic foot on the bottom, but I contacted the company and they sent 2 extras that day at no charge. It was very easy to assemble and all of the required tools are included. I am very happy with this item!
