6ft trampoline for 6yr old?

Our garden is only big enough for a 6ft trampoline (due to the layout and size of the garden, there is only really one place it could go, and nothing bigger will fit in that space). Is it worth getting one for DS1's 6th birthday or will he soon be too big for it? I haven't come across one "in real life" to get an idea myself.

I have 2 younger DCs who will also use the trampoline of course, and I know it would be a great addition to our outdoor toys for exercise, tiring out 2 lively energetic boys, fun and also sensory diet for my other DS. But if I get it for DS1's birthday I'd want to be sure he wasn't already a bit too big for it. Has anyone got one or come across one and can advise please?

6ft would probably be big enough for 1 at a time. We have recently got an 8ft one which seems to be considered small but its fine for my 4 year old to play on with dsd 9.

They spend hours on it, best purchase of the year!

Thanks Dansak Smile
6ft would be no good for a 6yr old and 4yr old at the same time then? I don't mind if all 3 DC can't use it together (DD is only a baby so too small still) or if it doesn't work for groups of friends, but would ideally like DS1 and DS2 to be able to go in together if possible.

I really wouldn't like to say, sorry I'm not much help am I? I haven't seen a 6ft one, I did lots of research on whether an 8ft one would be too small but didn't look at smaller ones.

I found the reviews on Argos and Amazon useful.
