The instructions were easy to follow. We did things a little differently than the instructions when putting up the net. The plastic Ts that the fiberglass spines insert into were snapped in by our 6 year old ahead of time (because he likes to tinker and help), and since we couldnt pull them back out, we had to assemble the top part while standing. Luckily, we arent short height-wise, and it worked out. The instructions tell you to assemble the top part of the net-guard first, then raise it up and snap each plastic T into each pole. We couldnt do that, but it worked out just fine.
The end result of our assembly was a sturdy trampoline.
The LED lights looked really cool. The trampoline feels safe enough.
Our backyard is not level--- its bumpy grass with holes, courtesy of the family dog that loves to dig. The trampoline seems to support 2 adults (total weight between both, approximately: 320 lbs), a 6 year old boy (36 lbs), and a very large dog (110 lbs). This exceeds the weight recommendation.
We used our own tools for tightening the nuts/bolts because it was faster/easier to do so. Gloves and all the tools that you need to assemble the product, are included. We appreciated that extra parts were included as a courtesy, and if we want, we can always purchase a replacement mat in the future. Our dog was not able to put any scratches in the mat yet, so we have high hopes.
Its a great trampoline, especially if you are good at building things. It took about an hour to assemble this product between 2 competent adults.
