At Upstate Amish, we offer a variety of high quality porch swing styles. Adding one of these to your porch or deck is a great way to fill empty outdoor space.
Each is 100% premium poly lumber and comes complete with chains. For details on weight capacity and how to hang your swing, see our blog about outdoor hanging swing recommendations.

Farmhouse Front Porch Swing Set Ideas
Many options exist for furnishing an outdoor space with a porch swing. Like the Sawbuck collection detailed below, a matching set is a great idea for those with enough space. However, take into account that a porch swing needs three or four feet of clearance in front of and behind it.
This way, the swing doesn't bump into any walls or other furniture while in use. For smaller porches, this limits options.
All porch swing styles are available at four feet long, perfect for compact spaces. If a swing is the only piece of outdoor furniture that fits on the porch, plants are a great way to fill empty space.
Adding greenery and flowers adds life and relaxing energy to the space. Create your own peaceful porch oasis with a few pots and hanging flower beds. Match your porch swing color to our poly wood planter boxes for a cohesive feel.
Larger spaces have much more options. For a porch that is wide but not deep, adding porch swings that face each other at both ends is an excellent option.
Or, place a porch swing at one end with a bistro set or outdoor bar at the other end. Any of our chairs or bar stools pair well with our 36 inch round table. All are available at standard, counter, and bar height for your preference.
Our outdoor bars and bar stools are popular among customers for their casual feel and storage space. Each bar features a wide, tall shelf for all your outdoor storage needs. Our Classic style is available at 33 and 55 inches or as a corner bar, perfect for narrow spaces.
For front porches that are both wide and deep, more options exist. Create an outdoor living room with the swing acting as a couch. Set up armchairs, end tables, and a coffee table for a comfortable, conversational feel.
Some porches do not meet requirements for hanging a swing from the ceiling. Issues like decaying support beams and joists can cause this. For these scenarios, swing stands are a great option. This also allows for easy rearranging of porch furniture.
Cushioned Front Porch Bed Swing Set
A cushioned bed swing adds a relaxing, comfortable touch to any porch. Unlike rocking chairs and gliders, these don't require movement from the sitter. Simply sway in the breeze naturally while taking a nap or reading a book.
Our Sawbuck style makes an excellent front porch swing bed. It features thick, comfortable cushions and a poly wood frame with a cross design below each arm. The arched cutout base adds an extra level of detail.
This style is available at four and six feet long. The smaller size is perfect for seating two while the larger one can seat three comfortably.Â
Our cushions and pillows are complete with Sunbrella high performance fabric. This company makes heavy duty fabric that is comfortable and cleanable. The color lasts much longer than other brands on the market as well.
These Sunbrella swing cushions also resist the elements well. They have UV protection and are mold and mildew resistant.
Aside from the cushion quality, we also offer a variety of fabric options. Patterned and solid cushions are available in a wide selection of colors. Customize your perfect porch swing with our fabric choices and poly wood color options.
  
To match the Sawbuck outdoor porch swing, browse the rest of our Sawbuck collection. A cushioned loveseat and armchair are available in the same style as the swing. Our Sawbuck end table and coffee table also have the matching cross detail and offer outdoor storage space.
Bring colorful cohesion to your front porch with our complete Sawbuck set. Mix and match the cushion and poly wood colors to create a porch set unique to you.
About Our Poly Wood Porch Swings
Aside from the Sawbuck style, we also offer Adirondack, Comfort Back, and Gateway swing chairs. These options do not come with swing cushions, although they are not difficult to find online.
Each of these styles are available at four and five feet long. The five foot swings are complete with an optional settee that folds out from the center of the swing. It features two cupholders for added convenience.
Like every piece of furniture at Upstate Amish, our porch swings are customizable. Choose one or two of our standard or premium poly wood colors to create your ideal swing. From neutral tones to bright, vibrant shades, we offer a variety of colors for our outdoor furniture.
We even offer exclusive wood grain colors that give the appearance of real wood. Even though poly is plastic, these options mimic the grain and color of various real wood species.
Adirondack Patio Swing
Our Adirondack style is a classic option. The design gained popularity in the early 1900s for its comfortable, reclined structure. It remains a popular choice today for the same reasons.
The Adirondack swing features deep seats and a slanted back that curves slightly for each seat. Vertical boards arch out in a fan or shell pattern around the sitter with a rounded top for added detail.
Comfort Back Porch Swing
Like its name suggests, the main focus of this option is comfort. It features thin, horizontal boards that curve for both lumbar and neck support. It has a more modern look because the boards flow from the seat to the back seamlessly with no contrast.
Gateway Farmhouse Swing
The Gateway style is a traditional farmhouse style swing for a porch with simple, classic design. It features thin vertical boards that meet under a thick, curved arch. Like the Adirondack and Comfort Back styles, the base features horizontal boards that curve for a deep, comfortable seat.
Why We Use Poly Wood for All Outdoor Furniture
We believe poly lumber is the best material for outdoor furniture for a variety of reasons. Primarily, poly is highly sustainable, weather resistant, and long lasting.
Poly wood, or HDPE, is 100% recycled plastic. The production process diverts millions of pounds of plastic waste heading to landfills every year. It also avoids using natural resources, unlike wooden porch swings.
Poly is eco-friendly throughout its entire product lifetime. It lasts decades so that consumers buy and discard less outdoor furniture over time. This also lessens waste heading to landfills. Poly is also infinitely recyclable, which is important when it is finally time to replace it.
Customers can send the poly wood furniture back to a manufacturer who will reuse the material. Or, they can find a nearby recycling center that accepts HDPE.
Not only is poly lumber incredibly sustainable, but weather resistant as well. Poly is entirely immune to rot and general decay. Its non-porous, waterproof nature makes it perfect for seating areas near a pool, lake, or beach.
Its UV inhibitors protect poly wood from sun damage. This means the color and material won't fade or crack. Its heavy weight helps poly furniture withstand strong winds and even hurricanes. This is perfect for porch swings because they won't break after crashing into walls.
This also makes poly ideal for vacation homes and customers seeking low maintenance outdoor pieces. Our outdoor furniture can remain in the same location all year with infrequent cleaning.
