Perfect size for our family.

We have 5 children and I couldn't imagine having a smaller one. Easy to set up. I do recommend watching a YouTube video on others setting it up to help keep you from a few small but time consuming mistakes.

Worth the extra money over typical 14' trampoline

When a 14'-15' may not work for bigger kids and spending double or triple can't (or won't) happen, this 15' x 17' oval trampoline works. Good bounce and plenty of room for manuvers. Purchased online with free and fast delivery. Setup time to bounce time was 2 hours and most of that is trying to figure out the typically poor instruction manual. My biggest suggestion to the manufacturer would be to mark the trampoline and frame with reference points to more easily identify matching points for the oval mat to the oval frame. We bought this as it was not only larger, but it offered better options in re-locating weekly it around our backyard in order to keep the grass alive. Check back with me next year to see how well that plan worked....

Happy Cheerleader! Happy Daddy!

I, and my (almost) 13 year old daughter put this monster up in 2 hours flat. Instructions just need to be read completely before you start so you don't have to do little things twice. Well designed and seems to be well built. We went from a 13' round to this and her and her friends wouldn't get off of it. "This thing is HUGE! You don't know how happy I am right now" was her first comment. A great purchase! Price is well worth it, shipped in two boxes right to your door, all parts were there and wasn't hard to put together. Happy customer!

Great size for a Trampoline

Great size for my 3 boys; my 6'3" son isn't afraid of bouncing off if he tries a flip. We had a round one before, but really like having a long side now. Easy to put together, if you have a power screwdriver and two adults. I did it with my 17 yr old son (and my 9 yr old "helping"). I suggest you wear work gloves, as the pipes come with a greasy coating to protect them. You'll also want gloves when installing the springs. We didn't install the enclosure, and had no problems in that respect. Of course, the manufacturer doesn't reccomend that. Follow the instructions when installing the springs & you won't have to strain so much hooking them up. We starting going in two directions and couldn't pull it together. We went back and followed the directions and it was fine. Still, not for a weak muscled person. We also got the accessory kit.

Good trampoline

This is a quality trampoline and is definitely worth the money. Putting this thing together, on the other hand is another story. Long story short, the wife and I nearly got a divorce because the lack of clarity of the instructions. Since this is an oval trampoline the correct pieces were very difficult to identify what order to go in. Once together this trampoline is awesome!

Kids will enjoy & nicely priced

After searching all spring and summer I was finally able to find this one in stock. Yes, there were more expensive ones online but I like saving money! This one fit our budget and had good reviews. I do recommend watching YouTube on how to assemble so you're not wasting time for for 45 minutes like us lol. The instructions were a bit confusing till I watched the video, after that is was a breeze to set up and went fast. The best part is watching your kids laughing and having fun! This is a big trampoline, that all 5 of our kids enjoy a lot. We had a Jump King that lasted almost 14 years, this Skywalker dosen't seem quite as heavy duty, the frame is not as solid and thick, lighter weight. The mat also isn't as tight but the kids haven't complained. One thing we all noticed is the opening on the net should go further down. I see this ripping sooner than later, with all the pressure from them climbing in and out all day.The frame is tall so a ladder is a must! We did by the Skywalker tie downs and it hasn't lifted or moved, even in horrible winds. We have had this trampoline about a month and a half so far and will update again.

great once up, directions hards to follow.

my husband is a construction engineer and jack of all trades. still had trouble understanding 1's and 2's with the directions. especially since it is oval - makes a difference. once up, has been great. even 300+ lbs. friends jumping on it, no problem.

I bought this for my 5 grandchildren and they can't stop thanking me. They love it and spend a lot of time on it. Would love to know where I can get a net basketball hoop to attach to the inside. I saw one on the 15" trampoline with attachments. This was a great Christmas present for them.

Great Quality = Horrible Instructions

The quality of this trampoline is great but it was a pain to put together. We have put together one other trampoline prior to this one of another brand and these directions were horrible. We liked how the enclosure is connected through the hook that the springs attach to but once we went to attach the poles that hold the enclosure up we realized that the part where the poles attach were not aligned with the frame that the enclosure poles attached too, which meant that we had to take off ALL of the springs and the mat off and start again. It was very frustrating but our daughter and her friends have jumped on it and camped out on it since we put it up a few days ago, so it was worth it :)

Isn't a trampoline supposed to have bounce

After spending the whole afternoon putting this together - because we had to dissassemble it and put it back together (and this is my fourth trampoline, I know how to assemble them), it has no bounce. When my son is standing on it and not even jumping he sinks at least a third of the way to the ground. Now we get to go dissassemble and return it to Sam's. I am one unhappy momma
