Our swing arrived to our new cottage in June.  It was a  perfect addition to a 40 year old set that received a major makeover.  It has faded over the summer. We brought it inside for winter storage, so that will help extend its colours and material every year.  We are disappointed that three inches of stitching has ripped open.  I will repair it, but a bit of a let down.   Overall, this has been a good purchase and it looks great.  Even the older kids love it. I would buy it again. Thank you, Anastasia
