| Supertramp | Super Tramp Trampoline Excel Fun Bouncer 12ft | The fun bouncer is the best circular trampoline. My childrens friends have other makes and say that the fun bouncer is much bouncier. It`s very sturdy and unlike my previous trampoline which only lasted just over a year (not a Super Tramp!)spare parts are readily available. |  | heather | 22/07/2009 18:11:02 |

| Galt | Folding Trampoline | First things first: my two and a half year old loves this trampoline. It made him giggle with delight from the first moment he climbed on it. Once constructed, it is durable, a good size and well balanced. Folding is a slight misnomer: the feet do fold, but you actually have to unscrew and remove the handle if you want to put the whole thing away.
But as you watch your childs happy face you will have to try and forget the trauma that was the self-assembly process. Im not quite sure why the actual trampoline section of this toy has to be self-assembly. Its much like buying a tennis racket and having to string it yourself. And about as much fun.
In essence the task before you will be this: take one bungy cord, and, using brute force, stretch it to double its natural length in order to lace it between the eyelets in the metal base and eyelets in the trampoline mat. But thats not all. The mat will have to remain around 5cm equidistant from the metal frame at all times.
A few things will be working against you in this task. First: the laws of physics - specifically the one about gravity (the whole structure is light and wants to lift off the ground as you yank the bungy cord); and also Newtons third one about motion (the one that says that every stretched bungy cord has an equal and opposite unstretching if you relax your grip for a microsecond).
Secondly, your sense of humour. You will be familiar with the first law of self-assembly: time spent is inversely proportional to fun gained. Whenever you tighten the cord, the mat will naturally pull tight to the metal frame. But yet it must stay several centimetres from it. My, how youll laugh.
And thirdly the resilience of your skin: the inevitable blistering of your hands as you attempt to wrap those last groaning millimetres of bungy around the final eyelets will be an impediment to the task-completion you will by that time be prepared to sacrifice your life for.
Its at about this point to you will remember how you scoffed at the manufacturers advice that this toy is best asembled by two people. Two adults to assemble one modestly sized item of garden recreation? Dont be ridiculous. In desperation you will nonetheless summon your hapless partner/spouse to assist. But that, sadly, will serve only to double the frustration and half the viable duration of your marriage.
There is possibly a decent TV programme format in getting the manufacturers of self assembly merchandise to construct their own products in front of a hostile audience. Your small child however will simply watch your misery in bewilderment, and then climb on board and bounce. And as you watch them a tear will come to your eye. The tears of pure, uncomprehending, bewildered misery of a kind only self assembly can induce.

| Galt | Folding Trampoline | I have sent mine back, somebody bought it for my daughter as a gift but I couldnt actually assemble it, you need muscles like arnie to strecth the bungee cord tight enough. Also it doesnt fold away as easily as implied on the description, one leg was so tight when I went to pack it back in the box I hurt my arm tugging on it, though I guess maybe mine was just faulty. Dissapointing. |  | Amazon Reviewer | 06/10/2008 01:01:01 |

| BODY SCULPTURE | trampoline and enclosure | We`ve owned an 8ft one for approx 5/6 years. We leave it out all year with no cover on as it has a safety net fitted. It is used every day of the year. After two years we replaced the safety netting due to the straps failing. In the last year we have replaced the trampolene jump surface due to a tear developing on one edge that, over the months, began to spread. The padding is now very shoddy. The frame has no rusting and and has shown no failure. We are now looking to replace the trampolene with a new larger version as our children have outgrown it. I would and have recommended a Bodysculpture trampolene to friends. Ours has been used daily for years and exposed to all weathers. It has been dismantled and put back together once due to a house move. I`m not surprised it`s looking a little jaded as we`ve certainly had our money`s worth out of it. |  | happy jumper | 27/02/2008 09:16:51 |

| V-fit | Jogger Trampoline | I had read a few bad reviews about these trampolines, but i have to say i was pleasantly surprised with mine!!! It was a lot sturdier than i thought it would be and although i have only been using it for a couple of nights, i think it will be great exercise. My 3 year old daughter loves it too....cant get her off it!

| Reebok | Mini Trampoline | Glad Im not the only one who breaks springs on these trampolines, I thought it was because they are not designed for the amount of usage mine gets. Most people seem to buy something use it a few times and then it lies in a spare room or cupboard never to be used again, but mine gets used for about an hour a day. I sent an email to Reebok and they gave me a few replacement springs but soon they were all broken too so Ive just resigned myself to the fact I will be going through several rebounders a year. |  | 99.9% bouncy | 18/07/2008 19:39:36 |

|
| Reebok | Mini Trampoline | I bought one of these Reebok rebounders from Argos catalogue store (not Argos-Sports online) in black. Just over a month later the springs started to break where they linked on to the frame. It had been used only as directed, mostly by a 7st teenage boy. I got a replacement, same model, from Argos and that failed 2 weeks later - the metal bars linking the webbing to the springs snapped. Overall, not a good batch of these Chinese-made rebounders, I feel. The rebounder surface and webbing/stitching were a good quality, though. Took that back for a refund. Am now about to order a PT Bouncer rebounder from Argos-Sports, and hope it lasts longer! |  | Fed up with exchanging rebounders, | 13/05/2008 18:29:04 |

| Unbranded | The Mad Dash 8ft Trampoline SE Package Deal Set | This is not an easy trampoline to put together, the metal frame needs to be bashed in to place with a mallet as it isn`t flush, and the spring loading tool is a joke which bends beyond use after about four springs, its competetively priced but there are easier trampolines out there |  | S JOhnson | 18/06/2007 14:26:03 |

| Plum | Fun 14ft Trampoline | I found the plum fun 14ft trampoline good but after about 3/4 months the bedding became unstitched and the springs started falling out which of course is dangerous we then bought another and exactly the same thing happened i was very upset i would rate this product 2 out of 5. |  | olly | 08/10/2003 11:58:13 |

| Unbranded | The Mad Dash 8ft Trampoline SE Package Deal Set | We ordered a Mad Dash 10ft SE trampoline from OUTDOORTOYSDIRECT.CO.UK which also trade as Kybotech ltd, we have waited 10 days for the trampoline to arrive after numerous delivery dates promised and keeping the children in during the summer holidays to wait for this item to arrive. It has arrived today and it is the wrong trampoline a cheaper `Sprint` trampoline product. To say the children are upset is an understatement. This trampoline is £40 cheaper than the one ordered and we now have the problem of getting hold of the customer service dept. yet again on the premium rate 0871 number. When we have contacted them over the last 10 days they have been very unhelpful and uncaring. IF YOU WANT TO BUY A TRAMPOLINE DO NOT GET IT FROM OUTDOORTOYSDIRECT.CO.UK OR KYBOTECH LTD. |  | Lewis Family | 05/08/2007 08:22:44 |

| Unbranded | The Mad Dash 8ft Trampoline SE Package Deal Set | Yeh got the trampoline on the day promised, but top rail pole damaged, tried to get a replacement still waiting 7 days later! Tried to contact by telephone, but I have tried for almost a week now and do not appear to be able to speak to a supervisor to get the matter sorted. Ha ha today Customer Care have informed me that the Supervisor will ring me as I have now requested a full refund funnily enough he has not rang me. Never again will I ever purchase from Kybotech Ltd. Quick enough to take your money, appaling Customer Care. |  | K Simpson | 26/07/2007 18:25:25 |
