5.0 out of 5 stars Very Happy with Bazoongi 48" Bouncer Trampoline December 29, 2008

By New Jersey Mom

I have two high-energy kids - a 5 year old boy and a 3 year old girl - so I'd been searching for an indoor trampoline that would allow them to have fun while safely expending some of that amazing kid-energy during the winter. :-)

We researched a lot of trampolines and ended up getting them the Bazoongi 48" Bouncer trampoline for Christmas. It's been a huge hit.

Here are the pros and cons we've experienced so far.

PROS

- As shown in the item image, the blue outer ring completely covers the springs. (This is a big deal when you have little kids as you don't want them to get a foot caught between two of those.) My understanding from reading reviews of other trampolines is that many are not built in a way that fully covers these pieces.

- The Bazoongi Bouncer has six legs which I suspect makes it more sturdy than models that have only four.

- For us, 48" is the perfect size for an indoor trampoline. It's big enough to allow the kids adequate jumping space and yet small enough to fit in our not-so-large living room.

- The bar that is attached to the trampoline for support is fully padded - there are no sharp or metal parts exposed. It's also seems to be a great height for both our kids to hold onto.

- The trampoline allows for good jumping. (It has a nice "bounce", which is obviously very important from a fun-factor perspective.)

CONS

- The weight limit is 80 pounds, so my husband and I can't jump on it (which is a shame as it looks like a lot of fun.) :-)

- Even with the extra two legs, my son (who is around 50 lbs) sometimes seem to wobble it a little when he leans on the support bar too heavily. This is probably our biggest issue with the trampoline, as it makes me a little uneasy. However, to be fair, it's only wobbled when he's leaned very heavily, and he probably shouldn't do that. I suspect if you use it outside you could tether it to stakes in the ground or something and not have this issue.

- Assembly was not as bad as we expected reading some other trampoline assembly reviews. My husband is quite handy and was able to have it up and ready in about a half-hour. He did get his hands pretty dirty though as it comes greased, so you might want to avoid attempting assembly on your light-colored carpeting. :-)

- The cost is more than some of the other models we reviewed, however it really does seem to be a good, sturdy bouncer and I suspect we'll get a lot of use out of it, so I feel it's worth the extra cost.

As with all trampolines, you should never leave your kids alone when using them, and only one child should be on the trampoline at a time. (We had Santa leave a note for the kids with safety rules.) :-)

Hope this is helpful!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great trampoline for toddlers January 14, 2009

By Pato R

I usually wait longer to write a review, but this trampoline was such a hit with my son that I had to share the experience faster than usual... My mom got this trampoline as a gift for my 22 month old son. She thought that it would be a good way for him to burn some energy during the winter. Well, it works very well. He bounces, jumps, sits, uses it to jump to the couch, he even wants to nap on it. It is a very fun 'toy.' So, in case you are wondering if your kids will use it, trust me they will.
Before my mom bought this trampoline I had several concerns, especially regarding safety. I thought that the handle bar was only on the side and that my son's arms would not reach it, or that if he reached the handle his feet would not be on the mat, but on the blue cover of the metal springs. My son is close to 3 feet -about 34 inches- and he reaches the handle bar perfectly and his feet stay safely in the mat and away from the spring cover. He still has about two inches from his feet to the spring cover. So the trampoline can easily be used by toddlers. My last safety concern was about the sturdiness of the trampoline and if my son could tip it over if he jumped hard enough while holding on to the bar. To test this I have bounced on it myself. I am 130 pounds and I have jumped on it really hard while holding on to the safety bar. If I jump really hard it buckles, but it does not tip over completely. My son has jumped hard on it while holding on and so far the trampoline has not moved at all. He is 30 pounds so I figure he will not make it tip over for a while, and when he is older the handle will not be necessary. So I think it is pretty safe and sturdy for a toddler. Still, as my son has gotten comfortable with the trampoline he has been a little more daring and he has fallen, so you do need to be there to supervise the kids and catch them if necessary.
Putting it together was a little tricky, but I did it myself in just 90 minutes. The instructions are not that clear, but with a little of patience and logic it is easy to set it up. The only thing extra I used was some oil to get the pieces to slide into one another with less effort, and it worked.
Overall I think this is a great trampoline and I have to say that my mom was right.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome for a kid with Autism/Sensory Issues June 11, 2008

By Lukeysmommy

Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   

My son is 3 and has Autism along with some sensory issues. This is a fantastic way for him to get sensory input! It has 6 legs, which makes it very stable (as opposed to the square, 4-legged models) and the springs give it great bouncing potential (as opposed to the models that use bungee cords). The weight limit is 100 pounds so I know he will get a lot of use out of it! The handle is great, although my son doesn't use it since his arms are short and when he holds the handle he can't bounce in the middle. Each child is different, so use your judgment on this...the handle can be removed if you feel this works for your child. Either way, adult supervision is a must. Overall, we are extremely happy with this purchase.
