As other reviewers have said, this is very hard to assemble. You need a lot of strength to stretch the cords. Once that is done, you are good to go. It took my hubby about an hour to do.I'm 69 yrs. old and have always been active in sports so this was a new thing to try. I found videos on YouTube that were ones for older folks. Now I love to "Go bouncing."

Once I got it assembled I jumped on it for a few minutes and was instantly pleased. Feels very solid and strong, and it didn't take long for my legs to feel the burn. This is a great at-home workout device for a reasonable price that won't take up a lot of space, and the legs even screw on and off easily if you need to stow the trampoline away in a narrow place. In regards to the assembly, I did have a difficult time by myself (thus the four stars rather than five) but it was easier once I got a helping hand. Note that we had an easier time with the assembly when we started with more of a "12-6", "9-3" (in reference to a clock) assembly approach. The way that was explained in the instructions seemed to cause the mat to favor one side too much, making the 6th bungee impossible for us to attach. When we changed our approach it worked much better, but you have to experiment yourself to see what works for you. Regardless though, it's a quality item and I am very glad I bought it.

I'm new to this rebounding scene and as a heavy individual (6' @340lbs), I was nervous about the risk of getting injured. If you have similar concerns, I can tell you that this rebounder is very stable and well built. Now I have nothing to compare this against but at no time have I felt like this would not support my weight. I got the wider mat and it feels like enough space to move around.Pros:good constructionstable framedecent bounce platformreasonably pricedrelatively small footprintexhausting assemblyCons:exhausting assemblyNote I placed "exhausting assembly" as both a pro and con because I did not realize the workout I would get just putting this thing together. I'm sure that has to do with me being grossly out of shape. However, I just wanted to mention it so you're not surprised. But this is not a reason to stay away and only has to be done once (hopefully, lol). I never thought this was much more than a gimmick, boy was I wrong! You really can get a great workout just from jumping. I'm giving it 4 stars because I am not sure about the longevity and because this is my first rebounder. Overall I'm enjoying this mini trampoline.

I have wanted to get an exercise trampoline forever since one of my favorite instructors (BBS) teaches trampoline workouts online. Finally got this in the mail and where do I even begin with the assembly...I went into it with an open mind. Watched a YouTube video that stated as long as you even the ropes out, it is fairly easy. EASY!?!?! Haha... that trampoline got the best of me for TWO HOURS, I kid you not. I have bandaids all over my hands from my finger skin getting scraped off, my fingers are beyond sore from pulling that evil rope to the point they are bloody red, and I have never despised something so much in my life before! I'm a pretty strong person, but even my husband said the assembly of this trampoline was surely something the devil created himself. BEWARE. I. HATED. EVERY. MOMENT. I have PTSD just thinking of those ropes now.BUT, on the brighter side, one that evil thing is done getting assembled, you get to enjoy a strong trampoline! Sturdy and has been wonderful to exercise on. Originally I was worried my feet would fall through the sides, and this is not the case- ropes provide enough strength and take up the full space to feel supported everywhere on the trampoline.Thus, I would say this trampoline is like someone competing in the Olympics: You train hard, you get exhausted, but once you reach the end goal, you can get that gold medal. Don't let the trampoline defeat you: get that gold medal every second you are swearing at those evil ropes with each yank. You've got this!

Works great, but you will need to be very strong to assemble it. It has 30 very strong bungees.

I waited a couple of months so I could give a fair review. It's a pain in the tushy to put together but I have used it consistently with no issues. My kids use it like a Trampoline, ( 2)6 foot ball players and it has survived a them so far.

I am new to rebounding and on a fixed income. So I had to balance quality and price in my research before purchase. Since I am new to this I wanted to make sure I was really going to enjoy and keep up with this so I didn't waste money on another item to put in a yard sale. Well, a week in and I am loving this! Tons of training videos and advice on YouTube. Invigorating and fun! I set a timer on my Echo Dot and my minutes fly by! Only draw back was needing the strength to attach the bungees but my hubby helped. After they are on you are ready to go! I store it on it's side in my home office. I can easily plop it down and bounce away as I listen to music or watch my videos on the TV. Awesome! It's sturdy and nice quality with the skirt going over the bungee straps. I highly recommend!

When I originally saw the reviews for this trampoline I didn't believe it could be THAT difficult.. I was wrong.. This trampoline is great, wonderful product put together, but the assembly is very difficult and straining on every part of your body. One of the tools were missing, and the metal hook given wasn't even bent to act as a hook! I built this on my own, but if you're very strong you probably wouldn't struggle as badly as I did. By the time I got to the fifth bungee cord I was already out of breath, my back was in pain, everything on my body was already starting to hurt. About 16 cords in I wasn't sure if I'd be able to do anymore on my own! When I finished building the trampoline.. I sadly jumped on it reflecting on my experience putting it together. If you buy this trampoline and plan on building it on your own I recommend you stretch every muscle in your body before doing so. I would purchase again, but NEVER build it on my own again.

Trampoline surface is a great size, and bungee cords are nice and quiet. The design of the mesh net allows jumping from edge to edge rather than having exposed “holes” to catch your feet in. We removed the provided caps from the feet and replaced them with purchased felt-bottomed chair leg covers, as the provided hard rubber/plastic covers cut into the gym mat flooring we have the trampoline on. Great product for the price.

First, this thing took me like two solid hours to put together. I had a sore red hands after. Once it was together, it works great! I am very heavy and wanted to start working out at home more. This is a great trampoline for plus size people. My husband and I have both jumped on it multiple times with no issues.
