Is it to heavy to hang from a tree branch?

It would be hard to hang because the roof is tin. I think it would be kind of heavy for a branch. We put ours on a tree stump and it looks great. It is a neat birdhouse.

Hi Crystal...no it is not, but the branch should be a pretty thick one. If that is the case, you should have no issues. You will have to supply your own hanging gear though, as it is designed to sit on a post. Should be easy to do though. Good luck!

This is made for attaching to a play set. I don't know how you would affix to a tree branch - I think the chains would slip? Maybe you would need these too:Wood Tree Swings Thirty Six Inches Long Tree Swing Hanging Kit 2 Straps WITH SAFER Screw Lock Snap Hook

The ropes are long (so could hang from a high tree or swing set), but attach with hooks at the top. If you hang it using the full length of the rope, it would be no big deal, but we had to loop ours around a few times in order to make it the right length. The hooks are great, you just have to make it the right length first.

you might could set it on a branch but you would have to find a way to attach it- the "wind action" doesn't really work

Unless you live in a tree house, I see no reason why you can't. The whole thing is a few hundred pounds at best- no problems!

You definitely could use it on a tree branch if it a really sturdy one. We've hung it from different things outside, but we always make sure it can hold the baby's weight. Our grandson loves it. We love it because it keeps him happy.

it is easy to hang. you can use a tree branch, a nail. I hung it in the grape harbor at home. I also hung one up camping on the outhouse. Worked great.

Yes, you will need some strong wire cutters. I just wrap the excess around the tree for extra support.

The fabric and the hooks are sturdy, so I don't think small branches falling would do any harm.

The swing does require a sturdy branch several inches thick and solidly connected to the tree. It is important to hang the swing quite far out on the limb because the swing tends to slip out of a back and forth pattern into a circular pattern and could hit the trunk if too close. It is a very fun swing and our three grandchildren love it!

Why not? I did, of course it's a good strong branch that will hold at least two adults in the swing. I threaded my chain through some tubing (plumbing) to keep the chain from wearing into the branch.

I hung mine on a tree branch. Guess you could hang it on a patio with some type of hanger.

I don't think so unless the fabric is super delicate. You could also lay things over the branch and not off the tip of branches. It's super sturdy. I love it.

We have ours hanging in a tree and it's awesome! It does hang low, so if you're hanging it inside you would need a high ceasing.

It could be hung with whatever as long as the cord is sturdy enough to hold the weight of the people using it and is anchored properly on the posts/tree.

Mine is hanging from a shade structure in the yard and I have become aware that we have to be a bit careful with our grandkids and even dogs walking in to its path. I dont think I would look it to a tall branch, say 15 ft or higher as it could be a real safety issue - potentially a lot of mass moving very fast. I am not sure how to attach to a low branch with out hurting the branch?

If you have the plastic and aluminum expandable kind, it isn't too heavy. All the way extended, it is awkward only when you are cutting at an angle, but never upwards. I sometimes reach out a second-story window to cut high branches, and it is hard only because I am holding 12 feet horizontally. I have had to oil the chain; it can get stuck in a closed position. My old one got stuck and never reopened; this one almost so.
