Trampoline for the sensory room?

Hello everyone, some background info my son is nearly 3 and was referred to the ASD pathway just after his 2 year check. He's under quite a few services including occupational therapy and has a sensory diet. His sensory needs are quite high, he's a sensory seeker that is awake 4-5 hours in the middle of the night jumping on beds and on/off furniture (yes, I'm very tired) and barely sleeps.

We do not have an outdoor space (very small narrow yard with only space for the bin) and our dining room has been repurposed as a sensory room. It isn't a big space, currently has crash pads, spinning fish chair, bubble tube, sensory lights and some mirrors. Some of the walls are padded for safety as he is a headbanger, and the flooring is made of foam padded mats. I was wondering if anyone can suggest a trampoline like an outdoor one with safety netting, that would be suitable for indoors please? I'm unsure what size to go for really especially with it being in an indoor space. He is too big for the small toddler ones with a bar now - they just tip over - and I'd like the added safety of a net ideally.

Thank you all for any suggestions ❤️

We have a bellicon trampoline but it doesn’t have a net surround.

We have an indoor trampoline, the Galt one, but we have a small Plum outdoor one outside. I'd suggest looking at the peanut balls as well which take up less space!

We have a small fitness one from Decathlon. It doesn't have a net, but it's low to the ground so isn't an issue

Bellicon are quite when used and suitable up to adults.

a springie chair or gorilla gym perhaps.
