Good Quality Trampolines

We had an 8 foot trampoline second hand which lasted quite a while. Then replaced it with a 12 foot new one which has only lasted 3 years. My ‘dc’ are now the size of small adults so obviously putting more stress on it, but them and their friends still love a bounce.
So does anyone know of a decent quality brand of small rebound and perhaps 8 foot garden trampoline that can take a 10 stone teen bouncing everyday without collapsing in a few short years 🤣

A springfree trampoline

Spring free, my friends had one for 16 years. It’s fabulous just like new

TP Toys. They do ones with covered springs to protect them.

Have you looked at the ones that require a hole to be dug, so it's on ground level?

I like the look of in ground ones but it would be a lot of work.

My autistic son is a heavy trampoline user, and has been through many during age 6-18.
The most robust ones are rectangular if you have the space. The load is better spread so less impact on the springs, and much safer if more than one person jumping. Try Jumpking.

Also second Jumpking here. The oval ones are better if you’ve space.

Our Skyhigh trampoline from Big Game Hunters is almost 20 years old and has been dismantled and reassembled four times over that period. It definitely counts as one of our best buys.

I ended up going for a bigger setup after comparing sizes, and the trampolines for sale gave me a good sense of what would actually fit without crowding the garden. The Kanga packages were solid, and the safety padding made me feel a lot better about kids using it. Next-day delivery saved me a headache, too.

Paediatric anaesthetist friend said he’d ban them. Worst injuries he’d seen came from kids of different ages and sizes bouncing together in breach of the specified safety guidelines.

Ours are teens so we now have a mandated one person rule. We ended up with a basic zero gravity one and it looks much better than the previous one. Reading the instructions reminded me I shouldn’t be dragging it about to mow under it.
