PlayStar Cliff-Hanger Factory Built Playset
Description
The PlayStar Cliff-Hanger Playset is a backyard climbing system built for kids who crave nonstop movement, challenge, and outdoor adventure. Designed more like a ninja-style obstacle course than a traditional swing set, it replaces slides and swings with cargo nets, climbing ropes, monkey rings, vertical climbers, rock walls, and hanging rings that keep kids constantly active. Available in three models - Gold, Silver, and Bronze - there is a Cliff-Hanger configuration to match nearly any yard size and activity level.
All three models stand 8 feet tall and are built with PlayStar's heavy-duty construction philosophy and modular design, ensuring years of dependable outdoor use. The Factory-Built (Quick Assembly) option means major structural components - walls, tower panels, and the swing beam - arrive pre-assembled from the factory, dramatically reducing setup time. Backed by a 5-year warranty and proudly made in the USA, the Cliff-Hanger series is a serious investment in your family's active outdoor lifestyle.

FAQ
What is the difference between the Gold, Silver, and Bronze models?
The Gold is the largest and most feature-rich model, featuring dual connected climbing towers with the widest variety of climbing activities and a capacity of 6 or more kids at once. The Silver is a mid-size option with a broader footprint and a solid mix of climbing challenges. The Bronze is the most compact model, designed for smaller yards while still delivering a full obstacle-course experience. See the "Model Options" section above for a detailed breakdown of each.
Is this a traditional swing set?
No. The Cliff-Hanger series is designed like a backyard ninja obstacle course, not a traditional swing set. The focus is entirely on climbing activities - cargo nets, rope walls, monkey rings, vertical climbers, and rock walls - rather than slides and swings. If you are looking for a more traditional playset with a slide and swings, PlayStar offers other models that may be a better fit.
What is the Quick Assembly / Factory-Built option?
The Factory-Built option means PlayStar pre-assembles the major structural components - including walls, tower panels, and the swing beam - at the factory before shipping. This saves significant time on installation day compared to building everything from scratch. A Build-It-Yourself (BIY) version is also available separately for those who prefer a full DIY experience and want to source their own lumber.
Do I need to add shock-absorbing material under the playset?
Yes, shock-absorbing material is strongly recommended for safe use. The Gold model requires approximately 19 cubic yards at a 12-inch depth, the Silver requires approximately 21 cubic yards, and the Bronze requires approximately 12 cubic yards. Common options include wood chips, rubber mulch, or sand. PlayStar provides these specifications so you can plan your installation properly.
Can accessories be added to the Cliff-Hanger later?
Yes. The Cliff-Hanger is built with a modular design that supports future upgrades and add-ons. Optional accessories include a Discovery Telescope, Decorative Kit, Ninja Grips, and more. This makes it easy to expand the play experience as your kids grow or as your budget allows.
Is the Cliff-Hanger made in the USA?
Yes. All PlayStar playsets, including the Cliff-Hanger series, are proudly made in the USA using quality materials, heavy-duty hardware, patented components, and high-density polyethylene accessories designed for long-term outdoor use.
What warranty does the Cliff-Hanger come with?
The Cliff-Hanger Playset is backed by PlayStar's 5-year warranty. PlayStar also offers lifetime support - their team is available before and after your build to answer questions and help with any issues that arise.
