Great investment – We purchased this product due to recommendations from Choice Magazine. We've had our trampoline for around 4 years and it has been a fabulous investment. The kids love it still. It is a very safe trampoline that is extremely durable. while one of the more expensive options as far as trampolines go, there is no question that it is definitely worth the additional outlay. We've had no safety incidents to speak of and we'll never need to replace it (unless we decide we want a larger model, but this one is sufficient and suits our yard). Would definitely recommend this product.
