The 6 Best Sex Swings

Things to Think About Before Buying a Sex Swing

The idea of buying a sex swing might be exciting, but it’s important to be practical as well!

Here are a few things to consider that will help you find the perfect fun, sexy, and—most importantly—safe one for you and your partner!

• Weight Limit – Who’s going to be using the swing? Find the weight of the person(s) who will be in the swing, and make sure that the swing you’re looking at is rated to hold more than its current weight.
• Level of Support – This may be less of an obstacle for younger people, but it’s something that you should keep in mind regardless of age. Different designs will provide support in different places, so make sure that the model you choose can offer adequate support in the areas you’ll want it most (such as your lower back, legs, arms, etc.).
• Hanging Mechanism – While most people think of a sex swing dangling from the ceiling, such a contraption might not be realistic, especially if you’re currently renting. Make sure that your home can accommodate your choice of hanging mechanism, and also ensure that there’s adequate support (ex. a support beam instead of drywall).
• Space in Your Home – Some sex swings can take up quite a lot of space! Measure the area in question to ensure you’ll have enough space to completely enjoy your new swing.
• Price – You’ve probably already considered this one, but have you compared multiple websites? Even if you’ve already set your heart on a particular model, shopping around for any sales or discounts can help save you a lot of money!

How Much is a Sex Swing?

In essence, I’m not going to be able to give you one specific number that answers your burning question of how much a sex swing is.

The price of the swing itself is not all. Then comes hanging, mounting, or securing the sex swing somewhere.

So…

Let’s dive into the prices.

First, the price range of different types of sex swings. Second, the price of different mounting options.

Sex swing prices

Instead of just giving you a range of prices.

Like, let’s say: $79.00 – $748.75 (Least expensive on Lovehoney.com, and most expensive on Sexswing.com).

I rather want to show you a realistic picture of what the actual prices of sex swings are.

Because, first of all, that $700+ on, that is one bad-ass heavy-duty sex swing.

Not something most consider for their living room.

So instead, here is a table of some of the most popular sex swings and according ranges for these.

Sex Swing Name	Shop	Price range
Sportsheets Sex Swing Door Jam Kit	Lovehoney.com	≈ $80.00
Wild Side Sex Swing (review)	Sexswing.com	≈ $150.00
Fetish Fantasy Bondage Swing	Sexswing.com AdamEve.com	$210.00 – $250.00
Whipsmart Pleasure Swing	Sexswing.com PinkCherry.com	$220.00 – $230.00
Screamer Sex Swing: Dual Hook	Sexswing.com	≈ $250.00
Strict Leather Premium Sex Sling + Chain Kit	Sexswing.com	≈ $500.00

So, the above table will hopefully give you a first impression of the prices of sex swing.

Here are some rules of thumb when it comes to prices:

• Door attachment sex swings will typically go for less than $100
  • More expensive, and you are getting a luxury item
  • Less than $50, and you should REALLY be aware of the quality, and make sure it’s a reputable seller.
• Normal sex swings typically go for $150 to $250.
• Heavy-duty sex swings or bondage sex swings typically go for anything over $200.
  • If you want real leather, expect prices over $350
  • If you want chains and metal, expect prices over $350
  • If you want a plateau to lie on, expect prices over $350
  • If you want a combination of the two, expect prices over $450
  • If you want a combination of the three, expect prices over $550

Look at different shops to get the best price

A story about prices, and why you should find the same product in multiple places!

Whenever you choose a sex swing, really keep an eye out for the prices between shops!

I recently found a scary example when looking at prices for the “Trinity Vibes 360 Degree Spinning Sex Swing”.

We recommend people buy this as the best “cheapest” option in our round-up review for the best-spinning sex swing.

AND I found a price different from one shop where it cost: $220, and at another shop it only cost $120.

And the cheaper shop is the one we typically recommend people buy sex swings at (sexswing.com), not because of the prices, but the quality and service!

Hanging, mounting, attaching – the cost of that

So, you thought buying a sex swing would be your only expense?

Sad to disappoint you.

Please make sure, that whenever you plan to purchase a sex swing, you leave room in the budget for how you want it to be mounted, hanged or attached.

Door swings

Shit’s pretty simple. You just need a sturdy door. That’s it.

A door sex swing is meant to just hang in a door and is free to attach.

Unless of course, you are a wild couple and wreck your door?

Alternatively, you can also purchase a pull-up bar and hang the door swing from that.

The cost of a good pull-up bar is between $30-50. If you want a super sturdy one, you can go all the way up to $120 for it.

But if you buy a door sex swing for under $100, it might seem a bit stupid to spend more on how to hang it.

Cost:

• $0
• $30-$50 (if you want to pull up the bar)

Normal sex swing

So, now it becomes interesting. For a normal sex swing, you have a lot of different options!

First, you can hang a sex swing from your ceiling.

For that, you need either one or two hooks.

1. If you are buying a sex swing with a single mounting point we recommend you buy:

• A Tie down bracket. Those go for +$20.
• 4 long screws. Those go for +$10.
• 4 nuts (for tightening it). Those go for +$5.
• Swing spring. Those are optional, but recommended. They go for $15-20

A single-mount sex swing, hanging from a ceiling will cost you ≈ $35-50.

If you are not comfortable with hanging the sex swing yourself hiring a handyman to come set it up will cost you around $50-75. But you still have to buy the swing spring if you want to go for that.

2. If you are buying a sex swing with dual mounting points we recommend you buy:

• Two Tie-down brackets. Those go for +$40.
• 8 long screws. Those go for +$20.
• 8 nuts. Those go for +$10.
• Swing spring. Those are optional, but recommended. They go for $15-20

A double-mounted sex swing, hanging from a ceiling will cost you ≈ $70-85.

Again, if you are not certain, that you can make the mounting points in your ceiling secure, then please consider hiring someone to do it.

It won’t cost you as much, and you will save money on equipment, as they buy in bulk, and will typically just quote you a single price for everything. But you still have to buy the swing spring if you want to go for that.

Second, you can buy a sex swing stand

So, if you do not fancy hooks in your ceiling, and trying to either lie about what they are for or have to admit it, then a sex swing stand might be a better option.

The screamer sex swing stand, that we bought and reviewed cost us around $500.

And, I’m sorry to say this, but that is a pretty average price for a good sex swing stand.

You won’t find a sex swing stand that costs a lot less than $500.

Cost of a sex swing stand: ≈ $500

Third, the cheap pull-up bar alternative

I did already hint at this alternative before.

It is for one, a lot more discreet. No one is going to think you are using your pull-up bare to mount your sex swing.

It is, at the same time, super cheap. $30-40 for a decent pull-up bar.

That being said, you are then restricted to having fun within the bounds of your door frame.

This might work well, if you have double doors somewhere in your house, and can hang the pull-up bare in the middle.

I would recommend buying a sex swing spring for the pull-up bar. As before, that costs around $15-20

Cost of a pull-up bar mounting: ≈ $45-60

How much should I expect mounting to cost me?

So, in sum, what we typically recommend is that you add +15-20% of the cost of your sex swing for mounting expenses.

That being said, if you buy a sex swing stand, you should just think that at least $500 should be available in your budget for that.

Conclusion – what will a sex swing cost me?

Let me say it this way – it depends.

But here are some examples of sex swing prices (including mounting and attachments):

• Cheap door swing, with no mounting additions: ≈ $80
• Average priced single point sex swing, e.g. a spinning sex swing, and mounting for ceiling: ≈ $200
• Double hooked sex swing, with mounting equipment for your ceiling: ≈ $330
• Average prices single point sex swing, and a sex swing stand: ≈ $680
• Bondage, or heavy-duty sex swing, and a sex swing stand: ≈ $950

Types of Sex Swings

Just like with sex toys, variety is the spice of life when it comes to sex swings! There are many different variations, but I’ve covered the main five types below. Which one do you like best?

• Single Hook – This type of sex swing suspends the user from a single hook, often allowing their partner to spin them around at will!
• Double Hook – The double hook sex swing trades the ability to spin at will for a sturdier and more secure setup, ideal for heavier people or those worried about breaking the swing.
• Sling – These swings use a sling design to support your partner’s weight, alongside simple straps for your limbs (such as the legs or arms).
• Door Swing – Door sex swings are designed to be easily mounted from a closed door, making them ideal for couples who travel often or simply don’t have the space to mount a sex swing from the ceiling.
• Spinning – As the name implies, these sex swings allow users to spin around, giving their partner(s) optimal access & angles to their body.
