My boys (5, 4, and 22 mo.) love this trampoline. They use it literally every day. I like it because it is good indoor exercise, we can direct them to it when they are jumping on the couch, and it helps get the wiggles out. Also, I know it is good sensory input for my littlest guy who has sensory integration issues.
Minor issues--it was difficult to string the bungee cord (took two of us and some sweat). Also, the handle rattles a bit in place when the kids jump. It doesn't seem to connect as securely as we'd like. The black locking screws were missing when the product arrived, but when we contacted the manufacturer they promptly sent them to us. |

| We recently purchased this trampoline after the One Step Ahead trampoline my daughter had got recalled. As far I can tell this trampoline is almost identical but cost much less. My 3 year old gets many hours of enjoyment jumping on it and is probably one of the best toys we have purchased for her. |

This is a great trampoline. My 5 yo loves it, and has had it for a couple years. He jumps on it a lot and it still looks new. The handle is nice for extra balance (although as my child has gotten older he doesn't hold the handle as much). The fabric around the outside keeps them from jumping through the ropes on accident. The legs can pull off for storage, but we have never stored it, it gets used all the time. I've seen other brands of trampolines at friend's houses, and they either don't have the fabric outside (dangerous) or they are already saggy in the middle (lame) or they have lots of extra buttons and gadgets on the front for noises or sounds or something (unnecessary). This one seems great.
My only caution is that if your child likes to jump REALLY high while holding the handle, they might push on the handle causing the trampoline to tilt a little. It's not that much, but I am super-careful so I put the trampoline facing the wall (handle side to the wall) to prevent any accidental tips. Also, my husband said the bungee cord rope was really tight and hard to put on, so just plan for that when you assemble it. |
Fun for a toddler who likes to move!

| Fairly easy installation instructions. My 20 mn old was introduced to this trampoline at a friend's house. I got one and all the kids in the neighborhood are enjoying it. |

My two year old loves this. A friend of mine had it for his kids and my son would jump on it whenever we visited.
We bought it for Christmas and my son skipped all the other toys left by Santa and jumped on this thing (called his "jumping machine") all day.
It is constructed of sturdy components and is very safe with a sleeve over all the bungie cords. The handle is very helpful to prevent fly offs or other injuries.
My complaint is that is is a real pain to put together. It probably took me an hour and three attempts at threading the bungie cord through about 25 eyelets. The instructions were also pretty weak. But after getting it set up, the kid loves it. |
