What we are looking for:

Materials:

One of the key factors to remember about free standing porch swings is that the base should be made out of hardwearing and strong materials such as solid wood or steel. There are also options featuring metal or aluminium frames with chains that connect the swings to the stands. The swings themselves may be made out of anything from solid wood to durable PVC or polyester for flexibility. Danielle Colding suggests looking at more contemporary styles that have a rattan or wicker swing chair that is attached to a metal frame. Some outdoor swings also come with cushions that may be made out of anything from lightweight cotton to a breathable linen or poly blend. There may also be a protective overhang that covers the free standing porch swing which is often made out of canvas or PVC.

Design:

Most free standing porch swings are designed to comfortably accommodate at least two people with a weight capacity often between 400 to 500 pounds. For a more traditional design, Hannes Peer recommends finding a free standing porch swing that sits on a double-sided wood triangle base with a solid wood swing seat that's attached with chains on each side. There are also modern designs that usually work better for a single person. They often have a circular metal base or four legs with a C-shaped metal stand that connects by a chain to a wicker or rattan egg-shaped or teardrop-style swing. For the ultimate in relaxation, some designs come with removable cushions or even headrests and overhead canopies to help block out the sun during balmy summer days.

Additional features:

Besides having an integrated adjustable canopy to provide shade, it's also helpful to make sure your free standing porch swing is properly equipped for the outdoors with UV, fade, and weather-resistant materials. Nick Olsen notes that for entertaining purposes, it's often convenient to find a free standing porch swing that comes with a beverage holder or even a side miniature table to place drinks and snacks on. You might also find one with a side storage pocket to keep your phone and reading material safe. For those who love enjoying a peaceful summer evening outdoors, there are free standing porch swings that come with a solar light panel to provide some ambience. And to keep things safe, you can also find a free standing porch swing that contains anti-slip rubber tips on the feet to help prevent it from toppling over while swinging.
