Hi, looking to buy dd one for christmas. Wouldn't mind buying a large one so we can get loads on!!:j. But as per usual, I want a bargain.

Anyone know of a good priced big un out there?

Wrong time of year reallly.


There was a deal at B&Q a month or so back where they reduced an excellent 12ft one down to £40 from £129.99

They sold like hotcakes,

I was in my local B&Q and noticed they still had a couple on the high racks (Probably in storage till next spring)

you could try your B&Q and see if they have any may still be on the computer system at the knock down £40 price.

Don't know what's out there right now, but I bought my daughter a 14' trampoline for her 11th Birthday (2yrs ago) -Best money I ever spent and think I paid £223 (with enclosure) from littlewoods catalogue.

There can be a bit of snobbery out there about not buying cheaper trampolines as some people think you get better value when buying a well know brand and that anything else is complete Tatt! - However, our trampoline carried the Body Sculpture name on the enclosure and failed to carry this name on the actual trampoline which, was stated should have been in the catalogue. I think so many products are cobbled together in Europe using various component parts from different manufacturers and put under one name - but have to say had no problems with ours regardless and the trampoline is as robust as the day it got here - see abuse it took below.

Sadly, a couple of years on it hardly gets used !!!- All the neighbours followed suit and bought their kids one, but noticed none of them really got used much this summer apart from one family who have a really young daughter, all the rest of the children around here are 9+ have seemed to have lost interest in them, novelty's worn off a bit I suppose (Blimey, how spoilt are kids of today!!!:rolleyes: ).

First 2 yrs though got more than it's fair share of use and several times there were as many as 6 children at once bouncing with wild abandon, even though instructions stated only 2 persons at any one time! Great Fun!

I know a couple of families around here just bought theirs from B+Q etc. So don't worry about brand just go on price and if it looks pretty sturdy then you shouldn't have any problems, none of my neighbours have.

Good Luck with your purchase and Happy Bouncing.

Great thing about catalogue purchase is - had opportunity to pay over 52wks.

We got ours from atlantic trampolines - e-bay seller. With 14ft trampoline plus enclosure plus ladder and weather cover - can't remember cost exactly but was less than £230
