The F.A.Q. for Stamina 36-inch Folding Trampoline (35-1625)

I did not particularly want a fold up trampoline. Reviews were great however. This is so much better than the one with springs i bought years ago from a retail store for the same price. It secures very well after simply pushing it out with its locks. The cover also has holes where the legs go through to further act as a safety feature. I am 200 pounds and the quality, responsiveness of the trampoline and anticipated durability are incredible. Since there are no metal springs to break or for my children to get their feet caught in they can use it without worry. Only negative observation is that one of the legs is canted inward. It almost looks that way in the photo as well on the left sides as you look at the ad. However i do think this is aesthetic and does not affect function. The legs securely screw on. Wonderful product. Good trampolines are usually so expensive.

A number of questions have been asked here.

Q&A

(0) Question: How sturdy are the bands as compared to actual springs? why did you buy one with bands instead of the springs? can anyone answer?

(1) Question: Can this trampoline be assembled by one person or does it require two people?

(2) Question: I see the weight limit is 250 lbs, but has anyone around the 200 mark actually used it without issue? (not 150's! )

(3) Question: If i really wanted to annoy my downstairs neighbors, would this be effectively noisy?

(4) Question: I'm using this for a pool, is it bouncy?

(5) Question: Can this be used for kids

(6) Question: I'm debating whether to buy this unit or another that has a handle. are there any stability problems with this product?

(7) Question: What is the diameter of the actual bouncing surface (the black nylon area)?

(8) Question: Is there a chemical smell?

(9) Question: Will it fit standard international airline luggage allowance, when folded? i believe that length+width+depth, should not exceed 62".

(note) Question: where/how to get Stamina (manufacturer's brand) accessories & similiar Stamina's products

I can actually say this is the first time in years i've really enjoyed exercising. I can do it anytime i want. Instead of sitting, i do exercises instead. Instead of taking a nap, i do some runs instead. And the best part, i know this is better for me & helps me get back in shape. Have already lost some pounds without even feeling like i'm depriving myself or on a diet. Just do this & watch what i eat. No more extra time for snacking.

Have bought almost ten of these to use for large breed dog beds and they are wonderful! better than the dog cots sold for double or triple the amount! even the the seven lab puppies love using it as a bed when the weather is hot, it allows a breeze underneath. When the weather is cooler, i just throw a rug or towel on top and they snuggle in. I had one with springs, which amazingly one 11 month old lab was able to dismantle all the springs. Although they have chewed on the straps, not one has broken (so far but definitely could easily be chewed through). I put some lemon or lime peel (or no chew) on the straps when i first got it.

This is my new secret weapon! i bought two (one for downstairs and one for my bedroom) about 5 months ago. When my steps are low on my fitbit, i jog in place on my trampoline while talking to my children, listening to an audiobook or watching television to reach 10, 000 steps. I'm not in the best of shape so it takes me about 6 - 7 minutes to hit 1000 steps. Within that time, i'm sweating! (rolling down my face type sweating). I also feel the muscles in my legs strengthening. There are multiple ways that you can bounce or jog on the trampoline, so if certain muscles become fatigued you can switch up your bounce to allow them to rest while continuing with your cardio and exercising a new muscle group. My teenagers love it! they bounce on it when they come into my room to talk to me, just because it's there! i bought two because i wanted easy access for everyone in the house, especially the children as i want to be proactive in preventing childhood obesity (two of my children are a little overweight). If it's there, we use it! i've also invited a friend over and brought the one from my bedroom into the living room and we bounced while we watched television, talked and listened to music while our children played around the house. She loved it, so i am going to send her one for her birthday. It is easy to move and store and inexpensive. . There is a wide price range in trampolines. I chose this inexpensive one to see if i would like it and to test it out and because there were many positive comments. But i am now considering a new one that is more pricey (maybe about $250) because i have become very serious about fitness and i suspect that i am going to wear this one out. However, there are no signs of wear at the moment.

I love this trampoline! i have been using mine about 3-4 times a week for just over a month. I have never jumped before but thought it might be fun to jump. I do have a past injury to my knee (torn meniscus) so i've always been hesitant to do too much high impact activity. I have found jumping to be easy and i haven't had one problem with my knee yet. . Pros. - easy set up. I know a lot of people say you need two people. Using my body weight i was able to unfold it on my own- and i definitely don't have much muscle. - the bounce is good- it's not too stiff, and not too flexible. - it has strong bands instead of springs. - i feel my posture has gotten much better since i began jumping. - i feel jumping for 30 mins beats the elliptical any day! it feels easier, more fun, and i feel like i get a better workout. . Cons. - the silver cover is very hard to stretch onto the trampoline. You definitely will need two people to make it stretch. - the legs screw on and off- i wish they folded so i could store it under a bed or in the back of a closet. - folding the tramp after every use is not reasonable because it's very difficult. - size- if i had to purchase again, i would definitely buy a larger size. This one is great, but i'd like to step it up with more side to side motions. - it doesn't come with 80s hair, leg warmers, or a scrunchie which i think would be valuable. ; -). . Overall, for the price i would definitely purchase this one again. It's holding up well and it feels good to jump on.

This thing is super cool! i bought it because i usually walk outside for about 6 miles per day, but it's gotten too cold for that. I was getting depressed because i couldn't get proper exercise outside, and i hate gyms, so i bought this wonderful contraption. Now, i jump on it for about 30-45 minutes per day. It seems to be pretty good exercise if you jump around with lots of energy. I've seen some rebounding videos online, but for the most part those are too easy. I don't think a lot of people work out as strenuously as they should. . Unfolding it was a problem though. I'm 85 pounds, and i tried to put all of my body weight on it to open it up. I stamped on it, and i sat on it. Nothing. My boyfriend had to come over to my apartment and unfold the thing. I'm never folding it again. So, unless you've got the upper body strength of power lifter - or just an average guy i guess - don't plan on transporting it folded. . My cats also really enjoy sitting on it, but they think it's scary when i jump on it.

This folding trampoline is awesome. I bought it because i read about all the benefits of "rebounding", which is using bouncing on the trampoline to help stimulate your lymph system and detox your body. This trampoline is great, because it was very easy to set up & seems sturdy.

Just received the item today. My son and i were able to open the unit to its locking position and put on the silver edge cover without too much trouble. The cover does fit tight but unlike some other reviewers, we didn't find it overly difficult to assemble. The directions suggested putting one end on then doing the opposite side end next, rather than doing them all in a row. This worked for us. I wouldn't recommend counting on folding it up after each use, as that would be a big chore. Just lean it against a wall out of the way. . All assembled the unit is solid, very attractive, and seems of excellent quality. I love that it's black and silver, instead of black and red or blue. For those unsure about the size, i measured the unit. From end to end the diameter of mine is exactly 35. 5". The black bouncing area itself from one inner edge of the silver cover to the other measures 28". For me, that's plenty of space to bounce and do simple exercises. . I like the amount of bounce, not too much and not too little. I especially love how quiet it is, unlike the spring trampoline i had in the past. This is going to be great for me to use while watching my favorite shows.

Impressive trampoline, especially for so little money! it's safe, incredibly sturdy, and the netting handles all of my weight (after an illness, i got all the way up to 250, and it handled that just fine). I don't have the best balance, and i was worried i'd fall right off a trampoline without a rail to hold onto, but, actually, the sturdiness of the feet along with the firmness of the trampoline surface keeps me centered. I've also noticed that jogging on this trampoline gets my heart rate up just as much as running on a treadmill (or more! )! this is my home treadmill. Furthermore, on the trampoline, there's a fraction of the joint impact one has to deal with on the treadmill, and a good treadmill is around $1, 000. This is $39! no brainer. . It took me a while to realize that running was the way to use this for cardio. Make a stationary running motion and adjust how high your lift your legs to your current fitness level. Add some hand weights and elliptical-machine-like movements to amp it up. Talk about impressive, cheap cardio! i do several 10-minute intervals, and phew! and it stores easily and moves easily, to boot (i just lean it up against a bookshelf when i'm not using it, and then plop it wherever i want to workout). Easy to use in front of the tv, in front of your favorite window, on the patio, beside your bed. Wherever! . . Unfolding the trampoline is a little scary, because of all the warnings in the instructions, but it opens fine. It's a little tricky to stretch the safety cover over the outside, though. It took two of us and some definite determination, but once it was on, it was on to say. I highly recommend this product for fun, cardio, or whatever you want it for!

Q. Shawna, Cumbria says

I just got my tranpoline today and it took me 15 minutes to assemble and start using. I am 5 feet tall and 128 lbs, i workout regularly but i am not supper stong and i was able to assemble it all by myself. I was kind of nervous about getting this product because of the reviews that claimed it was hard to put together alone. Now that i have put it together by myself in less than 20 mins i don't see why i was so nervous about it in ther first place. I would definitely recommand it to others. As time goes by i will review it on longevity. Untill then, happy holidays!

What a great stress reliever! i sit at a desk all day so when i come home, i change out of my work clothes, and spend 15 minutes running, doing jumping jacks, or just bouncing on my trampoline and all of my stress goes away. I originally purchased this as i am recovering from breast cancer and heard numerous times to take care of my lymph nodes by rebounding (bouncing on a mini trampoline). I did not realize how fun this would be. Enough about me - this is a very sturdy and yet lightweight trampoline. I leave it in my living room (higher ceilings) and before guests arrive, i can easily pick this up and move it to another room. It was easy to build (at least it was for the dear husband to do while i watched). We can watch tv while jumping as the springs are quiet. I am so glad i purchased this trampoline.

First off, this exercise trampoline is not meant for children. There's even an important notice paper that comes with it stating that this is not meant for children. This is an exercise trampoline for adults. Also, you can register your product as soon as you get it which means you can get replacements if something breaks without having to pay for another one. . When i read the reviews, i was very hesitant to buy it because so many people were saying that it was tearing and people's feet could touch the ground when they jumped on it. I've had mine for 2 weeks and it does great with me exercising (bouncing not jumping) on it every day for 30-60 minutes. I've had people that weighed 200lbs exercise on it and it kept its shape and never tore. I love this little exercise trampoline, it helped me lose 10lbs. I don't fold mine up, i keep it open and out so that i can get on whenever i want to get a little exercise in. I do think that 2 people are needed to assemble it because it can be a little difficult to open it or put the cover on because it's very tight. This trampoline was well worth the money and for something so cheap, i could see it lasting several years if you take care of it (not jumping as high as you can, jumping in the middle of the trampoline, not letting kids use it). The straps are very sturdy and provide a nice bounce when exercising.
