£99 10ft trampoline with enclosure

Comments

  • We bought this deal 2 year ago and its very good HOWEVER the net is so brittle and has recently ripped all the way around. The net is like a bag for oranges so you tear one bit and its easy to rip more and there is nothing to stop it going all the way round. Its £90 for a replacement net so almost as well getting a whole new set up! I have no against my better judgement taken the net right off as the other way the trampoline was totally unusable. It is a good deal but please dont expect it to last for years and years.

    I think the netting is much stronger on the asda ones now as my sister bought one recently and it had a much thicker net plus the zip went round the bottom in a curve rather than straight down so a lot easier to get in & out.
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Just picked one of these up yesterday, have to say the build quality looked good on the one assembled in store, the netting looks adequate - one concern was how low off the ground the trampoline is.

    I'll come back and post in a few weeks once the kids have put it through the "stress test" :D

    We bought the 10ft one + enclosure £99 from Asda last year. After looking through forums on MSE we realised it was a Jumpking, which I heard was a good make, but it wasn't branded as such when I went to pick it up. We've had ours up all winter and it's fantastic, very sturdy and has quite a high enclosure and tough net.

    Ahh so maybe they realised it wasn't as good. Oh well at least the newer ones wont suffer the same then.
