My daughters reaction said it all! – My sisters kids had a spring free trampoline for over a decade, with years of fun. When my daughter was ready to get very own we didnt even consider other brands. Now my daughter has her very own to play on. Her face lit up as soon as she saw it set up outside and when ever she sees it she wants to hop on. Whilst the kids love it, the big kids also like having a go. Having the piece of mind that she is safe, is worth any extra you would pay for a 'traditional' type trampoline.
