5.0 out of 5 stars A favorite, but it deflated!, January 24, 2001

Durability:2.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: 80" x 27" Jump-o-Lene (Toy)

My 2 year old twin boys absolutely adore this toy. We brought it inside to our family room for the fall and winter, and it has been an enormous hit (outside they were less impressed with it). They bounce to their hearts' content, run in circles around the inner edge, and even read books inside it. It is no exaggeration to say that they spent the majority of their day playing in this toy and that our house was the #1 destination in the neighborhood for other kids who wanted to come jump!

My one complaint, however, is that I agree with the reviewer who said it is not as durable as the product description claims. We had ours inside for less than a month before it had a hole in the upper ring. Within another month, 6 of the 7 chambers had holes, only two of which I could find (and even after repairing them with the included repair kit, they still deflated). I have gone over every centimeter of this toy looking for the leaks, and I'm coming up with nothing. It's probably a good idea to have an electric air pump on hand to do rapid refills as needed.

My kids have loved this toy so much that we will likely get a new Jumpolene soon, despite the trouble we've had with this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun in principle, but............, June 9, 2003

This review is from: 80" x 27" Jump-o-Lene (Toy)

Now before it sounds like whining, this is an objective evaluation of a product that is great fun for kids but has so many fundamental flaws I don't know where to start.

Let's start with "1.75-foot safety retainer wall has drain holes to prevent water from accumulating when used outside"

OK, firstly, one of the three retaining wall rings burst after two days, so my retaining wall is now 1.155ft, and my son keeps falling out.

Secondly, mine has no drain holes. I checked the bottom of the jumpolene before I let the kids use it, because it was obvious that any rainfall would get trapped unless the drain holes were oriented at the lowest point. No holes. Whatever. The weather forecast was good so it went outside.

The next morning it had about 2 inches of rainwater in it. I tried to tip it up, and it was about the weight of a Buick. Close inspection revealed that there are two small airflow holes between the curved bounce cushion and the spiral support chamber underneath that. These presumably allow air to flow between the cushions. They also allow water in, and there is now about 400 pounds of water trapped INSIDE my jumpolene.

We managed to manouver it into a position where the water could begin to drain back into the main ring so we could bail it out with a bucket. Obviously if there really were drain holes this wouldn't be necessary. Does mine have a manufacturing flaw, or is this a bad product description?

I spoke with an Intex customer service rep who didn't actually know what the product was - I could hear her leafing through paperwork and telling me they didn't sell trampolines. She went on hold to talk with a supervisor who suggested leaving it in the sun to evaporate the water. Nice answer! The supervisor promised to call me back in a few minutes..... yeah right.

In summary, this is a great idea for a toy, but lousy execution. Maybe I have a bad one, but less than a week after purchase I'm ready to slice it up and toss it in the trash.

This review is from: 80" x 27" Jump-o-Lene (Toy)

My daughter takes gymnastics and tumbling to strengthen a weak ankle. Her coach suggested this type of product for the home to help further her progress. It has been great..in no time at all she was jumping on both feet and has gained strength and control in her weak ankle. The sides make it virtually impossible to fall out making this product very safe for preschoolers. I love the fact that it gives her a chance to burn up some energy while helping her physical therapy. It is great for coordination improvement as well.
