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.

It is a must that you read the directions all the way through regarding the arrangement of the main frame layout. It is very easy to put together after that. The springs are weak. everything else seems fine. My whole family uses it. It is a great trampoline for what we paid for it. My complaint is the springs. They are too weak. I am a 206 lb male. I do front flips but it takes lots of effort because of the springs.

The trampoline is of good quality heavy metal construction. The trampoline has great bounce and very heavy duty net. I bought this trampoline looking for safety and large enough length wise for doing tricks. The springs are out the outside of the net, so everything inside is safely away from the springs. The mat itself, stays very cool and water doesn't seem to stand at all, which I was highly impressed with compared to the rubber ones at my daughters gymnastics. The price is good compared to US made versions of this trampoline. So expect to have problems with the instructions, being they came from China.

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.

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....

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

My last Skywalker trampoline lasted 10 years outside the whole time with heavy adult use, so it was an easy choice to get this one next. Easy setup as long as you watch the assembly video and pick up on the key detail that the door should be 5 springs over from the left side of the middle #2 bar to orient the mat and enclosure oval correctly. That doesn't show up in the printed manual anywhere.

My husband and I were just saying last week how glad we were we purchased this for our kids. The oval shape makes it a bit confusing to put together, but that is the only negative. We have had this for a year and a half and it still looks brand new. The oval shape is so much nicer than a traditional round one as it gives space for the non-jumping kids to wait while still leaving room to jump. I know, there's only supposed to be one child on at a time but since this is real life, I'm being practical. We have 2 teenage girls and our trampoline has been used several times a week when it wasn't covered in snow and it shows no wear. The net has performed it's intended use many times and there are no tears. The zipper is still fine as well. We were missing a bolt when we put it together and customer service had it out in the mail quickly for free. You might want to measure to be sure you have room. It's quite large. Very happy.

As most mention, instructions were not very helpful. Look closely at location of door and trampoline net otherwise you will be removing and relocating several times. Once up, it tolerates a lot of kid action.

Had the trampoline delivered to Iowa and grandkids put it together themselves with a couple of friends. No adult help needed. They say it has the best bounce ever. It replaced one that was destroyed in a micro burst/tornado at their house.
