3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad for a small indoor trampoline, February 10, 2009

I bought this trampoline for my 2 and 4 year old daughters. It comes flatpacked and requires assembly - you really need 2 adults to get the correct tension on the elastic cord but the instructions are clear. I did research similar trampolines but decided on this as I like the fact that it can fold flat for storage. Am overall pleased with the product but recommend it be used on carpet rather than tile as it has a tendancy to rock forward slightly and I'm concerned that it may tip over if the kids go too crazy!. The bar at the front is great for smaller kids to keep their balance. Would not recommend this to parents with children over 5 - it's not big enough or stable enough. Hope this helps.

4.0 out of 5 stars Love it, for the most part, October 18, 2005

Our 2-year old loves this trampoline, jumping on it for quite some time every day, and lying on it to watch TV!

It took a while to get it put together, but it won't fall apart any time soon!

My only criticism is that it is too light. My husband is going to have to find a way to weight the legs this weekend. My son only weighs 26 pounds (and this is rated to 60) and has already almost tipped it over when jumping vigorously, particularly when holding onto the handle, as it unbalances it.

Other than that, he loves it, and it should last a while.

This review is from: Galt Folding Trampoline (Toy)

I was very disappointed with this high priced kids trampoline. Previously I purchased an adult round trampoline for less than half the price. This trampoline did not have the handle bar. My todder son, age 2.5, enjoys the trampoline so much, I thought I would get the higher priced model. To my surprise, the higher priced model is not as high a quality as the lower priced adult trampolines. The most important problem is that this trampoline uses a bungy cord to wrap around the inner mat, and not springs. Springs work MUCH better. The bungy cord moves and adjusts, and does not give a good spring action. The handle bar is on one side of the device, and when the child jumps, the other side tends to raise up and when it goes down it pounds on the floor. This can ruin a wood floor, and it can cause a loud sound throughout the house. The frame is very light, and does not appear to be a durable as other frames. Overall, the design looks good, but it is not functional. The manufacturer needs a new design that eliminates the above problems and which uses springs. Perhaps the bar should be centered more, and perhaps some mechanism should be in place for putting a weight on the side opposite the bar to prevent this side from going up and down. Finally, when the trampoline goes up and down, this is dangerous, and the child could topple it over, and hurt himself.
