A swing according to the present invention includes a pair of side frame members, a sling forming at least one seat well and seat back, a first suspension system for supporting the sling from the side frame members and for adjusting the depth of the seat well and the length of the seat back, and a second suspension system for pivotally supporting the side frame members from an overhead support structure and for adjusting the inclination of the side frame members to recline the seat assembly. The second suspension system includes a pair of elongated support strands, each having its ends connected to one of the side frame members, a pair of pulleys, each for rotatably receiving one of the strands, and adjustment blocks movably carried on each strand for establishing strand lengths between the side frame members and the pulleys to raise and lower the ends of the side frame members and maintain a desired angle of inclination thereof.
