Trampolines provide endless hours of entertainment for the whole family
Trampolines are a fantastic way to keep kids and adults active and entertained, and they’re a great gift idea for birthdays or Christmas.
If you’re wondering which is the best trampoline to buy, it depends on your budget and what you are looking for in a trampoline.
Firstly, consider the size of your outdoor area and where you intend to place your trampoline, preferably on a soft, cushioned surface like your lawn. Ensure enough room around the trampoline for jumping and check that the area is free from obstacles like trees or fences.
Next, consider the durability and safety features of the trampoline. Look for models with enclosures, padded frames, and sturdy legs to ensure maximum safety, and that the trampoline’s weight limits are suitable for the intended users. For ultimate protection, Springfree is considered one of the safest trampoline brands in New Zealand and is recommended by Consumer NZ. Springfree’s springless trampolines feature shock-absorbent mats and flexible net enclosures that remove the need for injury-causing metal poles, providing cushioning and preventing falls to the ground.
There are also a variety of trampolines on the market suitable for adults — because why should kids have all the fun? If you’re wondering which size trampoline is best for adults, a 12-15ft trampoline is ideal as it can accommodate more than one person at a time.
If you’re after a trampoline for workout purposes only, a mini trampoline is a practical indoor option, particularly if you’re limited on space.
To determine which model is best for your family and backyard area, here are our top-recommended trampolines that will enhance your child-friendly garden and provide endless fun all summer long.
