Springfree trampoline - essential accessories?

Hello. Looking to buy a springfree trampoline for my 12 and 8 year old children. It's very expensive (over £1200) and will take up a third of my garden.

I wanted to ask if there were essential accessories I really need to get with it e.g. wheels, sunshade, cover (apart from the steps which I will get anyway).

All these add up to a significant amount as well but I have never owned a trampoline and dont know if it is wise / possible to move them around eg so the grass under them grows, and cover them for winter. Single mum here so any moving will need to be done by me - is that even possible? Thank you.

We don’t have any of the extras except the steps and it is totally fine.

@Gemstonebeach thank you. So, no need to cover it in winter? And you don't move it around the garden I guess? Does it need to be anchored to the ground? I saw a kit for anchoring.
