Skywalker Trampolines 15-Feet Jump N' Dunk Trampoline with Safety Enclosure and Basketball Hoop

We have been very pleased with this trampoline. We have had it for about a month, and the wife and kids have really had a good time with it. Everything appears to be very well made, and the trampoline looks great. I cannot speak to the longevity of the trampoline yet, but my initial impression is very good.The only issue I had with the trampoline during assembly has to do with the orientation of the safety net relative to the frame. The fault was mine, but in my haste I did not pay close enough attention to the instructions. The opening to the jumping mat was to be aligned with a t-pole joint (one of the leg supports), but in my hurry I aligned it with a t-pole with support joint. I may not have the words exactly right, but anyway, there are two types of leg supports: 1) ones with brackets to hold the poles for the safety net and 2) ones without brackets. Be sure to check the terminology of the instructions and start the jumping mat attachment at the right location. Because of my error, I had to disconnect every spring and reattach them 8 spaces over. With 96 springs, this was not exactly fun, but it really was not a big deal. The tool they provide for spring attachment made the process go pretty well.I would also recommend having some gloves handy for the assembly. The metal pieces are all coated with some protective oil, so gloves were nice to keep some of it off of my hands. Otherwise, the assembly instructions were quite good, and assembly was straightforward and fairly easy. I was able to put the trampoline together by myself with just a little help from my 7yr old son to help balance one part of the frame for assembly.Altogether, the trampoline is really well made, easy to assemble, and works great. For the price we paid, I do not think it would be fair to rate this trampoline with anything below 5 stars. I am very pleased with this purchase.

After a terrible storm lifted our old trampoline and wrapped it around a tree, I knew I needed to purchase a new one. This trampoline is amazing, it's very spacious, and the kids love the basketball hoop. The basketball hoop is easy to install, uses Velcro, and your kids will be able to take it apart and put it back together. The trampoline itself has clear instructions for putting together but you will need at least two adults. In my case, it was one adult and two teenaged boys! We had it completely set up within about 3 hours.I highly recommend buying high quality stakes that twist into the ground to ensure that strong winds will not pick it up!If you are researching trampolines because you're wondering if it will be worth the money, if it will be safe for your children, I highly recommend this trampoline. The enclosure is great, and the springs are strong (I've not ever had to replace a Spring yet). None of my children have ever been injured playing on it, and they play on it nearly every day.Parents, you will also find it is an enjoyable experience to use for yourself. Put your ear buds on, and your favorite music, and spend a few minutes jumping to your "jams". It is also a peaceful place to lay down and look at the stars with your kids. It keeps the bugs out in the Summer months and is quite comfortable to lay on and discuss the constellations!

So much fun!15 ft is a great size. Assembly was straightforward. If you can use a screwdriver and follow simple instructions, you'll be fine. The instructions are even written with a little humor, good for a chuckle. I assembled it myself in about 2-3 hours, taking my time. I "cheated" and used a cordless driver with a Phillips bit. If you do this, be careful, set the torque setting low as the screws will strip if you push them too hard. Thank God it only cost me a screw and didn't strip the tube. As it turns out, the kit came with a few extra screws. The most tedious part of assembly for me was the tying down of the spring guard/skirt, but it's easy.My kids were bored with the old swing set. I can't keep them off this thing. For that matter, I can't stay off it myself. The basketball hoop is OK, small, low and made out of foam and fabric, for safety. The bean bag toss game mounts to the outside of the net and is meant for use when outside the trampoline.I bought the add-on ladder, makes it much nicer to get in and out. The warning label advises no one over 200 pounds. I'm 195 and it seems like it could handle a lot more than I can throw at it.If you're on the fence, don't be, you know you want this. I picked this color because everyone else has the boring, basic, blue and...'Murica!Hope this helps, enjoy!

I purchased the trampoline and it was delivered in two very heavy boxes within a few days. It took me exactly 2 hours and only one beer to assemble the 14 ft trampoline with the help of my two young daughters. It helps putting the kids to work organizing & helping. The trampoline, for the most part, uses high quality materials and is an excellent trampoline to jump on. The only problem I had was with the blue caps that hold the net in place (I broke a hexagon bolt when I screwed it in and it broke though the plastic ) but was able to finish the assembly without it. These caps probably consumed the final 20 minutes of the assembly and were, for me, the most frustrating things to assemble. It would be nice if the caps were preinstalled and ready for installation onto the metal posts (maybe using a system similar to a patio umbrella with a thumb-push button when installed into a base).The only other issue is that the initial assembly requires the trampoline to be upside down and then flipped. Even using two people to flip it is not easy (although the directions say it is a "breeze"). It is very heavy and lifting 14 ft of metal bars is tough. One person cannot flip it. If you have to assemble it alone, you can probably disassemble portions of it, then flip those portions and reassemble.Anyway, the result was expected: watching excited kids jumping for hours and hours.We've had the trampoline now for a month and it has held up well. Overall, very happy with the quality.
