Naturally Shock Absorbant. From the moment you walk onto Soft Landing Rubber, you will instantly feel the bounce and cushion that this product provides. It will not become compact, so it keeps its soft composition and texture for years.

 

CLEANER THAN OTHER SUBSTRATE CHOICES

  • Does not mildew, rot, mild or decompose
  • After the rain, any dust that has formed on the rubber mulch will run off the rubber
  • Unlike wood mulch and pea gravel that quickly decompose or become slimy, rubber mulch stays relatively clean
  • Rubber Mulch is cleaner than wood mulch, so your children do not become as dirty or messy during play
  • Rubber Mulch drains and dries quickly (15-30 minutes after rain)
  • Does not attract animals or insects like wood mulch

SAFER THAN OTHER SUBSTRATE CHOICES

Rubber Mulch:

  • Is non-toxic and harmless to the environment
  • Will not cause slivers, cuts or bruises like other products
  • If thrown, is less likely to cause injury as compared to wood or gravel products
  • As with wood mulch or pea gravel, to prevent any risk of choking, We recommend that parents prevent their children from swallowing rubber mulch.

APPEARANCE

This looks like natural wood mulch, without all the negative characteristics of wood mulch. Many professional landscapers buy this mulch instead of wood mulch. Using this rubber material not only makes the play area safer, but it also gives it a clean professional look.

EASE OF USE

Rubber products are extremely easy to transport and spread. Since this mulch is sold in bags, you don’t need a special truck to bring it home like bulk mulch products. To help prevent weeds from growing through the mulch, we recommend that a landscape fabric is used under the mulch. Spreading the product doesn’t require any special tools and can be done by one person.

COST EFFECTIVE

Though our mulch may seem more expensive than other substrate choices, it will not compact, decompose or pulverize, so a one-time application will last for years. Wood mulch products decompose yearly, so they need to be replenished 33% to 50% annually. When you compare the cost, labor, and mess of buying yearly, versus buying rubber mulch once, you’ll find rubber mulch is very economical Recycled rubber provides dependable fall protection that exceeds the protection provided by woodchips, sand, and other surfacing alternatives.

Other product benefits include:

  • Clean, safe 100% recycled rubber – 99.9% steel wire free
  • ASTMF 1292-04 Approved – exceeds US Consumer Products Safety Commission standards
  • Five times heavier than wood
  • Fungi free reducing allergy risks
  • Decay resistant to provide a consistently cleaner, safer play environment
  • Labor saving – one application lasts for years without replacement or fading
  • Non-toxic – safe for children, animals, and plants
  • Ideal for landscaping too!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: We have a small backyard, do you have anything that will fit?
A: We are confident we do! One of our “Space Savers” will fit in almost any yard, and still leave room for the surrounding safe area around the playset. Visit your local dealer to learn about the ultimate space-saving flexibility of our compact playsets and accessories!
Q: How should I maintain my play set?
A: You must treat your wood product annually with a stain or wood sealant. This is required for the warranty to remain intact. We used a water-based treatment when we made the products. Prior to applying a new coat of stain, it’s ideal to pressure wash your set and allow it to dry thoroughly. Then, inspect your set for any rough, peeling or splintering spots and hand sand them until smooth. Make sure you tape off any metal or plastic parts or if you’re up for a professional touch, or take the necessary steps to remove them before you begin staining. Brushing or “ragging” on the stain allows it to absorb more evenly than spraying. Be sure to read the instructions on the can of stain before starting; you don’t want to stain if rain is in the forecast anytime soon or if it’s too hot or cold outside. In addition to applying a fresh coat of stain or sealant, we suggest you check bolt tightness and all hardware periodically to ensure everything is in proper order.
Q: What are the thick timbers on my fort and swing beam made of?
A: All swing sets are made from 100% cedar or 100% Redwood. Our manufacturers use engineered beams for major structural components providing additional strength and durability. Engineered beams experience less checking and warping than tradition timbers. Our engineered beams are built just like the ones used in many commercial and residential construction projects. Our timbers are fully tested for outdoor use and most come standard with a life-time warranty.
Q: Does my yard need to be level in order to have one of your play sets installed?
A: Ideally, yes. The flatter the area in which you plan on installing your play set the better. However, we can make some adjustments to fit the unique contours of your landscape. Please contact us if you have any concerns about how unlevel your yard might be.
Q: What do you recommend we do to our yard prior to installing our new Play set?
A: In order to help eliminate any possible problems prior to your installers showing up, please mark the area in which you want the play set installed. A nice way to mark off the area is by using your water hose or landscaping flags. Don’t forget to allow an additional 6’ parameter around the play set for a safety area. Also, mark any sprinklers in the area, pick up any toys and animal droppings within the installation area.
Q: How should I maintain my play set?
A: You must treat your wood product annually with a stain or wood sealant. This is required for the warranty to remain intact. We used a water-based treatment when we made the products. Prior to applying a new coat of stain, it’s ideal to pressure wash your set and allow it to dry thoroughly.

In addition to applying a fresh coat of stain or sealant, we suggest you check bolt tightness and all hardware periodically to ensure everything is in proper order.
Q: I’ve noticed cracks on my play set, is this normal?
A: Well, it depends. Wood is a natural product and all wood has its own characteristics, so natural variations in grain, color, checking and defects are to be expected. A “Check” is a long crack that appears as the sap wood of a timber shrinks around the heart wood over time. Checking is typically not a structural problem, and usually occurs only on one or two sides of a beam. However, if you notice any blatant cracks large enough to fit a quarter inside, then you may have a problem and you should contact your local dealer for replacement. At that point the structural integrity of your play set may be in jeopardy. Please keep in mind if you are the original owner, these parts will more than likely be covered under warranty.
Q. Does my play set need dug down into the ground for anchoring?
A: No, we build the play set on the surface of the yard because the play set is made of wood and we want to minimize the chance of rot and decay and maximize the lifetime of your set. The weight of the play set and the anchoring systems provided by the manufacturers will be enough to keep it safe and secure.

Customer Reviews

Can’t recommend this place enough if you’re in the market for a swing set. We stopped in a few weeks ago looking for a swing set for our son and were fully expecting to get the “supply chain delay” talk from them, but that wasn’t the case! They had last year’s floor models for sale at a deep discount and nothing really was wrong with them aside from needing a new coat of stain. They were super helpful educating us on the different models and features given our price point, all while our 2 year old ran around testing out every set. We ended up going with a floor model of the Panda, and they came out and delivered/installed it yesterday- a little over 2 weeks from ordering. Installation was quick and professional, and I feel like the set is safely constructed for my son to play. We fully expected to pay a premium and not get a set until July/August due to supply issues, but we ended up getting a great deal from a local business with free installation within 2 weeks of ordering!

Hillary Steward

I highly recommend! Great customer service! Michael did a great job helping my family choose a play system. He even sent aerial view with dimensions so that we could lay out our Playground Grass by ForeverLawn. Alex and Ray installed the play set. They communicated with me throughout, worked hard, and did a fantastic job! That day my kids got off the school bus and played until dark. The neighborhood kids all came over to play! Just awesome!

Corey Adkins

Their installer was courteous and professional. The materials are top of the line. The salespeople are NOT pushy at all and treated my family with respect. Would recommend to anybody looking for a playset! Thanks again Travis and Tyler!
Michael Kilgore

I was in search of a new trampoline for my son. After searching for a few weeks I walked into Kids World in Heartville. Tyler was very knowledgeable on all things trampoline! He was able to provide me guidance on exactly what I was looking for and went above and beyond to provide amazing customer service to me. The delivery was quick and installment went smooth once I received my product. I will be back and asking for Tyler again this spring when looking for a playground set!!

Teresa Drew

Kids World Play Systems’ team was absolutely professional with helping me purchase and setup my new swing set and basketball hoop in my backyard for my boys. They love their swing set and basketball hoop and I will definitely be ordering again. Thank you to the sales floor and the delivery team!
Claire Kennedy

I want to thank Kids World in Hartville, OH for all the time they took with me explaining and walking me through all my options that could come with each of the different play systems they sell. I worked with Michael H, I know I am not the easiest person in the world to sell things to, I want to know everything possible when it comes to letting my hard earned money go, Michael was very patient with me and my son. Once I did purchase that wasn’t the end of our conversations. Michael and the team kept me informed in every step of the process, such as, delivery time frame, delivery day window, setup timeframe and what if anything I should do to get my yard ready for installation date. Michael even called me a week later to see how my son was enjoying his new play area. My son is looking for a basketball net for Christmas and I am sure heading back to see Michael soon.
Bill H

Kids world play systems was very professional. We got our play set and basketball hoop in a timely manner. The installation went very quickly and we are very happy with the quality of the products. Scott was very helpful and when an issue did arise he worked with us in order to resolve it.
