  1. CONS OF METAL EQUIPMENT Metal is not a natural material so, if not sensitively installed, it has the potential to look unappealing in a natural setting. Many design elements can help overcome this, however, and in shopping centres and other built-up areas, metal equipment can be more in keeping with the design than wood. Over time, if not treated properly, metal playground equipment can rust. This can compromise the equipment and will require a full replacement before children can safely use it again. Metal play equipment can get very hot in summer or very cold in winter. The material reflects the temperature of the season, which can be uncomfortable to touch during play. CONS OF WOODEN EQUIPMENT Wooden playground equipment is easier to vandalise than metal. It is, however, very easy to clean or replace should the worst happen. Treating wooden playground equipment is done with chemicals, which while perfectly safe, can worry some parents and care givers. It also requires regular maintenance to keep it in good working order.
