Look for materials and components that look like they’ll last. It’s also well worth paying a little extra for decent padding on the frame and covering the springs. Accidents do happen, but a bit of padding goes a long way. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{ When it comes to space, aesthetics (no spoiled view) and safety (less distance to fall), in-ground trampolines are a popular option.

How much should I spend on a trampoline?

Parents and experts alike rate brands like Springfree, Plum, Jumpking and TP very highly, however most of their products can be pricey.

Salta have been designing and manufacturing high specifications at affordable prices for many years and are one of the leading trampoline manufacturers in Europe. As Salta concentrate purely on trampolines, they really are experts in their field. Salta have also invested time and money in producing easy to follow manuals and have produced high quality and concise videos to support you in building your trampoline. Not all parents enforce this, but children are much safer bouncing alone. Having more than one child is not only more likely to end in the odd bumped heads incident, but children of different weights bouncing at the same time can cause injuries too. Most trampoline accidents happen on the trampoline rather than through falling off. Trampolining can be an exhilarating activity for children, but safety should always be the number one priority regardless of the type of trampoline you choose.

So while many of the outdoor trampolines we've recommended have a three-or-over age range, we'd recommend that you follow safety guidelines as set out by experts.

Before you begin, you need to know where you’re going to put your trampoline. Then you can start to consider the shape, style and size.

RoSPA states that garden trampolining isn't suitable for children under the age of six as they are not sufficiently developed to control their bouncing. They also advise that children using a trampoline be supervised by an adult at all times. Consider a rectangular or oval trampoline if your garden is on the smaller side, as they fit neatly into a corner. Rectangular trampolines also tend to be bouncier and give you a bit more control in the bounce too.
