After searching for exercise equipment for sustained and easy workout purposes and after rejecting treadmill after treadmill I saw this and, for the price (which has since changed?), thought it was worth trying.

I have been SO HAPPY with this rebounder and am very glad I ordered it. It is heavy duty steel and has a weight limit of 300 lbs. It is a "folding" unit, though a little on the heavy side for a lady to handle... I did need a strong helper to unfold it, but I keep it set up so once was all that was needed.

For safety (and this may apply to any rebounder or trampoline), from time to time the integrity of the attachment loops should probably be checked over the months as you use this rebounder, and it is wise after every (or every other) exercise session to check the tightness of the legs, which screw on to the frame and can work loose over time with use.

I LOVE working out on this thing. It is a very gentle no-impact workout that can improve posture and tone, and it easily keeps me working at a steady 'calorie-burning' pace for longer than I would normally want to workout. When I am tired and stop, I find myself WANTING to get back on after a brief rest, and that is saying alot about how much fun this workout equipment is.

The ONLY thing that bothers me is that there is NO MANUFACTURER information provided AT ALL. No company name, address, or phone number to contact with questions, or for replacement parts if you wanted to order or reorder in future. This is not good business practice, and makes me wonder who stands behind the quality of this product.

Rebounders are great, I learned that in the one month I got to use this rebounder with my wife. Fun and easy to use, easy setup, just screw in the legs and you're off and running. The price also is fantastic.

The downside is that this "300 lb" rebounder snapped two springs last week. I weigh around 170 lbs and my wife weighs a lot less then that, so the snapping springs were a clear sign of the quality of this product. Factory warranty is only 30 days, good luck getting it fixed.

If you do get this rebounder, buy it here on Amazon, since this rebounder is sold under several brand names.

Sturdy and east to store. A great way to get the heart rate up without causing pain to your knees ankles or hips. I can "run" through the morning news and weather shows and have my cardio done for the day. Great product, reasonable price.

Two springs already broke and the handle is wobbly. Too bad because I liked it.

This is a solid rebounder, and it is rated for adult weight capacity. I got this for myself, but my children love it, too. Great for the whole family.

Sunny Health & Fitness 40" Foldable Trampoline with Bar I researched rebounders for about a month before deciding on this one and I'm very happy with my choice. It arrived almost immediately - about 3 days before I expected it! It was also very easy to set up, took about 10 minutes. I was happy to see how sturdy & well made it seems to be. After reading many rebounder reviews on Amazon and other sites, I picked this one because I didn't find any complaints about complicated set up or about it seeming cheap or about springs breaking - these were common complaints about other rebounders. You can spend up several hundred dollars for a rebounder, but I can't imagine how much better the higher priced models could be. My one small criticism is that they don't include an 800 number (fortunately I haven't needed one - so far) or anything else that identifies the manufacturer. I just would have liked to see a little literature and product info, beyond the set up instructions. But maybe that's why it is so reasonably priced - they put their money into product, not glossy, colorful literature. All in all, I can recommend this highly.

I purchased this despite others who said it had no manufacturer's contact info--hoping nothing would be wrong. Unfortunately, we had a missing part. Amazon would have replaced it, free of shipping, but that would have involved unassembling, packing and shipping and assembling the new item once it arrived. I found the Sunny Health and Fitness distributer info online. Note that they distribute to stores, not consumers and are not the manufacturer (imported from China). I received an e-mail reply THE SAME DAY, and they quickly sent me a replacement part. I am happy with the trampoline--sturdy and no squeeks. It does have that rubber odor, but it doesn't bother me since it is in my basement.

I received this about a week ago -- and I sure hope it doesn't break as quickly as some of these reviewers write about, because I love it so much. I'm 67 and completely out of shape, and I can already tell some differences made in my body by using this trampoline. Plus I've already lost three lbs. This trampoline is infinitely better than a treadmill, having used both before, and from all the reading I have done about the rebounder, using a mini-trampoline provides for better health over the long haul than a treadmill. The muscles in my legs are already stronger than before I started bouncing. At the price I paid it almost makes this exerciser disposable, so if it breaks I'll just go out and invest in a more expensive piece of equipment, that has a lifetime guarantee. Having used this experience with this rebounder as a tool to find a really great exercise routine and piece of equipment for myself. That being said, I find this rebounder to be sturdy enough for an old gal, and easy enough for me to put it together myself. The stabilizing bar helps me out a lot, since I'm a little wobbly right now. I highly recommend this as a starter piece if you think you might be interested in rebounding but don't want to put a lot of money out for a piece of equipment until you find out if you like it and if you'll actually use it. Go ahead and buy this, I had no problem with the seller, and it came before the expected date of arrival. Bounce away. Have a great time with it. Enjoy!!

This is a sturdy rebounder. The handle is only slightly loose, but I think it requires a little give. Assembly was very quick and easy, had it up and going within 20min. Has great durability. Like a previous poster stated, it's great for the whole family.

Product instructions have multiple typos. One of the rebounder legs had a dent in it preventing it from being screwed on. I had to use pliers to remove the dent. Stabalizer bar joints are not very secure -> they move about, and allow the stabalizer bar to move about 1.5 feet laterally - and if you don't use it, it bounces about when you jump, making it more than worthless. The springs have a little rust; consequently the rebounder squeaks when jumped on. One of the joint lockers on the stabalizer bar didn't quite match up with the hole, and required a lot of fiddling to get it in. The component bags and cardboard containers had been opened previously.

Apart from the stabalizer bar, these problems could have simply been the result of UnbeatableSale, Inc sending me a returned product that had been exposed to moisture and had sat in their inventory for a while.

Lesson: Don't buy from UnbeatableSale, Inc and don't by this trampoline.
