Skywalker Trampolines 8-Foot Jump N’ Dunk Trampoline with Enclosure Net– Basketball Trampoline

Bought this for my son's 9th birthday. We went well over the number of bodies that was supposed to be in this thing but it held up!!! They had a ball!!! We also had adults in it with no problems. Will see how it holds up over time.

I found only one major flaw (which is why I deducted the one star) from this otherwise pretty great trampoline.Practically the first thing you do during assembly is attach the net to the jumping surface by sliding the tabs through 20-30 holes. Everything else comes after this, including the springs, etc. It's really, really important you get this step right/perfect, or you'll have to undo all your work and start over. Seriously, important.So... I did it the right way, or so I thought. I found out after my trampoline was nearly complete that there was a mistake made at this point. But... was that my fault? The mistake is that the net was shipped "inside out". I know that's hard to imagine, and seems like it would have been totally obvious, but it's completely not obvious. Think of a sock that's turned inside out, but that there's no obvious difference in color/texture on the inside/outside. How would you really know?I spread the net out, lined up the slots, and began assembly. At that point, you have no idea what you're really looking at... it's one big jumble of net.And did the instructions call anything out like "make sure the net is right side out", "the safety label should face out", etc? NOPE. Not a single word. I scoured the instructions later looking for what I missed. Nothing. So, they shipped me a product that was setup for me to fail, and gave me no clue to watch out. Ouch.Did I disassemble the whole thing literally to step 1 and restart? Nope. Too much work (assembly took me about 60-90 minutes with a friend, I'd estimate). I wasn't going to more than double my time spent. The way I could tell it was backwards was that the attaching of the net to the tops of the poles is literally backwards... Duh! So I had to sort of twist them around to install, which felt weird -- obviously. THEN I noticed that the safety label was facing inward instead of outward. And the safety snap clips over the zipper door were on the inside, meaning jumpers would run into them all too easily. Ugh. So I just cut those safety straps off the net, and the twisted attachment of the net to the poles is fine (only awkward, not flawed) and can't be seen. With the safety straps removed, the only way you can tell my mistake is that the label is on the inside. But my kids don't care.So, there ya go. Fun trampoline that the kids love. Assembly was actually pretty decent, except for this one tiny huge gotcha. Beware. Make sure your net is correctly oriented before you start.

I bought this trampoline as a surprise summer present for my kids. Before the kids got home it was very easy to assemble, and the size was perfect for the two of them. When they got home they were so happy and they love it! Even the little basketball hoop is cute too. (BTW the trampoline comes with the basketball and the hoop) This was a great purchase for my family.

The foam around the vertical pipes that holds up the net totally disintegrated. Luckily that was cheap to replace with some pipe insulation from the local home improvement store.However the net stretches a lot and gets loose quickly, end caps on pipes that hold the net are horrible, brittle and breaks easily. But worst of all the protective pad around the edge really doesn't like the weather. It looks terrible even after a few months of sun exposure, and ultimately start falling apart (a kid stepped right through it). You can get a replacement, but it cost half of the price of the entire trampoline. I had to duct tape the end caps.They might claim they are weather and UV protected, but in no way do I find that's the cause, and the replacement parts are WAY overpriced.

Initially, I was very excited to receive this trampoline for my granddaughter. , However, half way through the construction of the trampoline+, my son in law discovered he had been shorted a box of springs ( totally reuired for the safety) and basketball goal. When I called Amazon C ustomer Service, neither the agentor her suupervisor could see the big picture. I said. I only the set of springs and tgHe basketball set up. They could only see the way to help was to dump another 75 lb boxed trampoline on my doorstep. They wouldn't or couldn't figure out a wayto ship 5 lb worth of replacement parts. So I ended up with another 75 lb load that I was responsible for packing up the box and lugging it to UPS. I am a retired HR Director of a global Customer Care Technical business so I know about providing Customer Delight! The Customer agents could have been empowered to make an independent decision to not dump another whole trampoline on a 66 yr

This thing is fun. My 1 year old, 3 year old, and 6 year old spend a lot of time on this thing. We got it at Christmas and now it's spring and they haven't tired of it, yet.I would just say "read the instructions." Don't get caught in the trap of assuming you know what you're doing just because you've put together other trampolines like I did. Perhaps I'm just a dummy, but we had to put the springs on/off the legs 3 different times because everything has to line up perfectly from the legs, to the springs, to the net, to the poles, to the base. I think there were ways they could have designed the unit/instructions to make it easier and clearer, but ultimately we got to two different points and realized we had to take the tramp part off and re-start again. It's not fun to pull those springs into the sides 3 different times.Now that it's together, it's fun. We'll see how it holds up in the Arizona summer heat.

We wanted a new trampoline to replace a smaller 6 foot 'toddler' one for our 2 growing boys. While we have space, we didn't really want a 10 or 12 foot trampoline - our youngest would need help getting in or out as they're higher off the ground, and a larger one would rather take over our lawn.So we decided on this 8 foot one as it's a nice compromise at this stage. Low enough that both boys can get in and out without help or steps, and not too much of a garden dominator while being more 'bouncy' and fun than the smaller one we got rid of.We've been very pleased with this trampoline and the boys love it! Room for both of them to bounce around, they can bounce higher than the old one and the basketball hoop with this one has added some fun.The trampoline was pretty easy to put together, 2 of us had it fully assembled in about 15 minutes with no issues. All just slots together nicely, just make sure to follow the instructions and put it up in the right order.Would recommend this trampoline if you have kids in the 3-8 age range, older kids probably would find it a bit boring and want something bigger. The weight capacity of this also means us adults still can't join in with the kids, but at the price you can't argue with the value provided here really. This will last us for 2-3 years anyway, and then we'll move up to a bigger one. For now it's ideal for our 3 and 6 year old boys. Good value price and so far 6 months in seems good quality, it's stood up perfectly so far to the use it gets every day.Hope that helps.

I put this together all by myself and I'm a female who's never put a trampoline together before. The springs were a bit hard but I managed on my own nonetheless. My three sons jump on this every day. Two of them are 65 pounds and one is 39 pounds so they're close to the weight limit when they're all on it but its pretty sturdy. I've even jumped on it with one of my kids a few times which put us over the weight limit but it was still fine. It didn't seem like itd be sturdy when I was putting it together but it actually is.

Perfect!Just the right size for our small yard. Still an ok size for 8 and 4 year old.Like how it's lower to the ground so it's easier to get on and off for the 4 year old. Love the way the screen attaches to the trampoline.Definitely get this if you're contemplating a new trampoline!!!!!!! Easy set up too. Two of us building it only took an hour.

Fast assembly if you've assembled a trampoline before. If not, give yourself an hour and a half if alone. Once up, it's a huge hit that lasts years if you take care of it.

Is everything the ad say it is , super speedy shipping , easy to assemble my 4 year old daughter loves & great size for her. Highly recommend for your 1st trampoline
