Skywalker Trampolines 14' Trampoline, with Wind Stakes, Purple

We previously had the 8"skywalker which was a lot of fun for our kids. As they've gotten older, they wanted more room to jump about. When assembling - play close attention to how the frame segments are aligned to support the safety netting later. The 'sockets' should be every other section. Instructions not clear on this and I learned the hard way.

This is a wonderful trampoline - debated long the choice of 14 or 15', and ended up with 14' due to yard size limits, and it SURE is big enough for my girls (age 6 & 7). They have been on it non-stop since we put it together. Really. I had no idea it'd be a magnet for their attention from getting up to going to bed. PLENTY of room for them plus 2-3 others, though no high bouncing when that many are aboard. I am VERY comfortable with the security netting - that's a really ingenious design, and I would not have bought without it. ASSEMBLY - read all the other posts, they are NOT kidding when they say read directions twice or more before setting out. Two tips: listen when they say "align the jump net properly with a T-junction, and NOT one that has the enclosure mount on it. ALign with one of the other, plain T joints. if you do not, you will have to unstring and re-do the entire thing. I'm glad I read carefully and read all reviews - I did it right first time. BUT - one thing I did not find in reviews was this tip: you must ensure that the t-joints are properly in order as you build the frame up. You start by building it in sections - but you MUST ensure that the t-joints look as they do in directions. That is, one at end of the section has the safety net enclosure post slot. The one behind it does not - it's plain. This must be same on ALL sections before you flip them over and slide them together to build the round frame. Otherwise, you will have to undo half the strings, all of the bolts, and move the t-joints around till they are proper. That is, as you go around in a circle, you have plain t-joint, then safety-post-joint, then plain t-joint, then safety-post-joint. There are 6 safety post joints, and 6 plain t-joints on that frame - and they ALTERNATE. Make sure you alternate, or you'll be up late completing the assembly..... Once I got it done, I was veyr impressed with the quality, and the girls absolutely love it - great exercise (wears them out for bedtime!), and dad loves jumping too! Highly recommended, easy to ship at Walmart to store, and the price was RIGHT.
