Indoor trampoline

Hi I want to purchase an indoor trampoline for my 6 year old son with ASD. He is very active through the summer months and I want something that he can let off a bit of steam in the house throughout the winter. I am doing some other bits and pieces for him like a messy play area and I want some sensory type things. But the trampoline, can anyone make any recommendations. I was thinking of one of the toddler type ones with a handrail but he is quite a tall 6 year old so wondered if anyone had any better suggestion?

argos do a basic small adult trampette, without a rail that would be suitable.

We bought a circular gym trampoline from Agros for 12yr old DD. She does a sensory diet each morning before school using the trampoline, space hopper, a large peanut shaped inflatable and a tug of war.
Gym trampolines are very sturdy as for adults and are very low to the ground so safe indoors.

I bought ds1 a rebounder last year I think from sports direct as his favourite thing is bouncing. It has been great although one problem is there is a lot of squeaking which drives ds2 mad even though I chose one from the reviews that wasn't meant to squeak a lot. He prefers his big trampoline in the garden but uses the indoor one when it is cold or wet.
