Oz Trampolines Summit Round 8ft
Verified108 reviews
Trampoline perfect for my toddler and also my 9 year old, chose this size as we have limited space. Was easy to set up, only took 1 person. We chose this brand as a family member has one and it’s been up for 6-7 years, nets are still intact and everything works great. Show details · 1
Love it! Got this for my son's 5th birthday gift, small enough for our not large outdoor area but big enough for him and a couple of friends. Very responsive by email and Craig was so helpful with all my silly questions! Show details
Okay – Sturdy construction and attractive. It was somewhat challenging to assemble the frame - particularly the last piece to complete the circular frame. The poles for the netting just push together (instead of click) which meant that several of them separated in the process of pushing them through the netting. Having a lug on one piece that clicks into… Read more
a hole on the other piece of pole would improve this. The website rates the capacity at 150kg, however, the box rates the capacity at 130kg. Considering this will be used by children and adults alike, or getting the weight capacity rating is important.

Just got our Pink 8ft round trampoline Instructions were very easy to read to set it up with just 2 people. Feels like a very good quality product. Show reply
Love it – Absolutely fantastic Bright pink , super strong and definitely feels like it will last years
Air track from Oz Trampolines is a winner!! – My two children ages 11 and 13 love their new air track Santa gave them for Christmas. It is safe enough that they can both use it together and durable to use it as a regular activity. Comes with clear instructions so air track can be easily inflated/deflated (electric pump included) for storage. Highly recommend. Show details · 1
Jumping for absolute Joy!! – Christmas brought my 9-year-old daughter the 8ft round trampoline... she has been ecstatically jumping and flipping ever since it was assembled!! Thank you, Oz Trampolines!! Show details · 1
Fantastic trampoline! – Our 6 year old daughter has wanted a trampoline for years and during these crazy times with more hours spent at home we decided to see if we could find a trampoline that would fit in the only space we could squeeze one into. The Summit Round fit perfectly. While the product was out of stock, we ordered it anyway and we’re immediately contacted by… Read more · 1
the Sales team to make sure we were ok with a small delay or if we would like to reselect. Even after another small shipping delay due to an issue at sea, we received the product exactly when we were advised it would come, much to the delight of our daughter. It was relatively easy to assemble, much of it I did in my own and just borrowed hubby for installing the springs. We are very happy with the trampoline and look forward to many years of bouncing!

Safer products for the little ones out there – We bought the 8ft trampoline as it looked suitable for young children and the website claimed that the product had.. "Effective and very safe overlapping enclosure system that is zipper free for longevity." and "Safety is our top priority - Our 8ft trampoline is made from very dense padding that completely covers both the high-performance springs… Read more
and the robust frame for complete peace of mind."
The fact is that the overlapping enclosure design does not at all completely enclose the jumping area. It is extremely easy for a small child to crawl and slip under the overlapping entry point and off the trampoline. Also the overlapping netting is not tightly overlapped but separated by the width of the padding approx 250mm.. again not fully enclosed and too easy for small children to get through and fall off. The website claim sounds like the overlapping zipper free design is safer than the zipper design but this is not the case.
The claim about the padding is true it seems to completely cover the springs but nothing ties the padding down enough to prevent small children from easily lifting the padding which is quite loose and getting their hands caught in the springs.
This trampoline cannot compare to our last 16ft round trampoline from a national sports retailer. Our previous trampoline had the safety wall netting inside the spring and padding area tightly fixed at the inside point of every spring making hand injuries practically impossible. Also the zipper entry point was completely enclosed and safe as apposed to the oztramps overlapping opened with gaps design.
Oztramps claim of a 90 day peace of mind guarantee and great customer service is non existent. I raised these three main safety issues and got the run around with 7 back and forth emails and was finally told it would cost $250 to $260 to return. I was also told it would be better for me to sell privately via Local advert, Gumtree or ebay.
Other points to consider if you are thinking of buying is.. The build time is quite long with many nuts and bolts used on the T pieces where other brands have a locating push pin connection The wall posts of the trampoline overlap and clamp on the outside of the main trampoline leg posts instead of slipping into each other like other brands.. Then a third pole overlaps the second overlapping pole to create the cover option. All of this overlapping and clapping is really painful and time consuming and does not fix together well as side pressure on the clamps make the poles twist from being parallel with each other which looks terrible. The cover pole clamps also clamp around the wall poles which have been slipped into foam and plastic padding, again a bad design flaw making the clamps not really fit for purpose and most likely will cut into the padding with a bit of time. A few T pieces where already used and scratched up The trampoline has only been up for 3 weeks and the matting, and large safety tags are already discolouring and fading. The trampoline matt also leaches the black colour off after rain.
Sorry about the negative sounding review for everyone but I hope this is helpful anyway. Hopefully Oztramps can put maybe a 5 and over age restriction as it's to easy for young kids to slip through in a split second if they want to be risky. Hopefully they also start to practice the good customer service and peace of mind guarantee that they claim.
Lots of fun to be had – The trampoline was extremely difficult to put together. I figured I could do it on my own but was left having to ring the helpline and watch the online videos. This didn't work either. Hubby then tried and even he had difficulty connecting the pieces of this round 8ft trampoline. Eventually, it went together and it was smooth sailing from… Read more · 1
there.
The trampoline mats collect water underneath - even when it hasn't rained. We discovered this while camping on the trampoline one night.
The metal rings around the entrance part of the trampoline net have all rusted. This began less than 2 months after purchasing.
The canopy has been used twice. It's never been used on windy or breezy days, and has been up for a total of 10hrs. There are already tear marks beginning and stress marks on the pockets that hold the rods.
The mats have discoloured badly after a shower of rain - the mats started off a brilliant pink, but now have permanent water droplet marks all over them. (They are 4 mths old)
We recently had a cyclone come through Central Queensland and our tampoline is still sitting perfectly in the backyard, undamaged and unmoved. The structure of the trampoline is very strong and sturdy, the netting is great for safety but also for keeping bugs out while camping.
The trampoline comes with a TON of extras incase you lose anything during the life of ownership - this is AWESOME! I also really appreciate the little tool fitting that came with everything to tighten the bolts - very handy!
18mths and still going strong – Purchased the 8ft round 18 months ago and it still looks brand new in spite of the kids thrashing it every day. It still retains the same bright colours as when we first purchased it and does not show any signs of wear and tear. Delivery was super quick - especially as it was around Christmas time. The website provided excellent instructional… Read more
videos so we were able to assemble in stealth on Christmas eve and we have had no issues with the product at all.
The trampoline is placed on a concrete ground and is held securely by sand bags (the type sold at camping stores for gazebos) and we do not have any issues with tipping/movement. The trampoline survived a massive storm including flooding with no rust or damage.
My only suggestion to the company for future is to somehow secure the pole coverings so the padding foam doesn't slip down - my dog has enjoyed chewing on the bright blue foam - but at least replacements can be easily purchased online.

The kids love it – The trampoline arrived the day after I ordered it and after checking that all parts were included we spent some time putting it all together. The instructions and videos were all clear and easy to understand but I think the estimated 40 minutes to put it together was perhaps a little optimistic. All in all. Very happy with the service and the equipment. Show details · 1
Love it! Kids are very happy! – Once ordered it only took 2 days to arrive. Set up was relatively easy and my husband was able to complete this by himself! Once set up we surprised my 6 year old for her birthday and she was so excited! She jumped until dark this afternoon and I'm sure will be jumping as soon as she wakes up. Thank you so much :) Show details · 1

trampoline, added bonus it has numbers printed on the mat and he is making his own game of jumping and counting.
Assembly was easy with clear instructions, I also believe the way it is assembled is extremely safe for the kids using the trampoline.
Thank you Oz Trampolines!!
Absolutely worth it – Bought for our 6 year olds birthday. Love the weight limit as an adult can bounce with him and join in new tricks and moves. Love the concept of no zipper. So easy to make. Put together in an hour and a half instructions were so clear. Can't wait to explore it more. It was our sons birthday yesterday 22.5.21 Show details · 1

The perfect fit for inner city living! – We live in the inner city and have a small backyard but the 8ft trampoline is perfect. It doesn't take up too much room but is the perfect fit for my two children 4yo and 8yo to have hours of jumping time. It was simple to install and took only 1.5 hours on Christmas Eve (which was a bonus for the xmas surprise). The design is ideal with the… Read more · 1

fall off. Even if they bump into a pole, they are well padded so there is no risk of injury. Would highly recommend an Oz Trampoline to anybody looking for a well designed, Aussie built, safe trampoline.
Best customer service I have ever experienced!! – Super fast and friendly service. I was even emailed by customer service to make sure I was aware that the trampoline I ordered was on back order and wouldn’t be shipped to me for a couple of weeks (which is super rare of a company to do this). They kept me updated as to when my order would be dispatched. We haven’t set it up yet as it is for our 2… Read more · 1
year old for Christmas. We know he is going to love bouncing around on this little beauty. Thank you so much for the wonderful service. Would highly recommend!!
Fantastic trampoline - great service – I have only had it for a month but it is great value for money. Well constructed trampoline with clear instructions that I was able to put together by myself (albeit slowly) until the very last bit - which involved inserting the long plastic pieces at the top of the net frame - this requires a lot of strength (and height) to get them to bend into… Read more · 1
the circular shape. My grandchildren (3-4y.o) just love it and the safety net and edge padding appear durable and safe. It's the perfect size for young children - doesn't take up too much room in the yard but an adult can also have fun (exercise) on it, plenty of bounce too. I think I would have preferred a zipper opening, its a little challenging for adults to get in the overlapping net but the kids have no trouble and its not likely to break like a zipper might. Oz Trampolines were very easy to deal with. good communication and delivery as per expected date.
My kids love it! – This is perfect for my 4 & 2 year old boys. Plenty of space for them to both be on, plus an adult. Very sturdy. We found the entry a bit difficult to put together but the rest of the instructions were pretty straight forward. Also, the customer service was fantastic, one of our accessories was on back order without us realising and they refunded it for us immediately. Show details · 1
Excitement plus! – Birthday gift for active 5yr old. Perfect for an extra daily activity to use up excess energy through gross motor development. Every day use at the moment by max. 3 young children. Plenty of room for safe jumping. Easy assemble by 2 adults. Colours are great. Highly recommend. Show details · 1
