My grandkids have loved this for almost a year, but there is a serious safety issue. The padding doesnt adequately cover the bottom frame and little heads were coming in contact with metal. I had to zip tie pool noodles around the edge to cover the metal tubes. That aside, I assembled it fairly easily with no help. Everything went together well. The trampoline is showing no wear. Wouldve given 5 stars if I hadnt had to jerry-rig padding.
We bought this in February 18 and our grandkids (2, 4, 7 years old) love it. In a previous review I included a picture of our addition of foam noodles around the perimeter of the net to cover inadequate padding of the metal bars. Now Ive purchased the same noodles (Fix Find 52 inch Colorful Foam Pool Swim Noodle 5 Pack, 2) to replace the foam padding of the vertical bars due to flaking and deterioration of the foam. After being outside in Southern California for over a year the foam just disintegrated. It was fairly easy to pull up the netting, remove the old foam (wear a mask), and slip the new noodles on after cutting a seam in them with scissors. Aside from that, the trampoline is holding up really well. Its a great price for a little kids safe, small jumper.
Great small trampoline, BUT
