MARCYTrampoline Cardio Trainer with Handle ASG-40 , Black

I'm using this as part of my morning exercises..very easy to use at any time of day. Mine is set up in an extra bedroom. As I work from home I can jump on and off whenever I get a break .very convenient to get the heart rate up quickly with little effort. I'm in my 70's .. preparing for my next 20 yrs .

My son loves this trampoline. The first one lasted over 2 years and it withstood all the abuse he put it through. I bought him a second one for Christmas and it is just as well made. He loves jumping and uses it multiple times a day, the mesh never began to show wear. He also likes to disassemble, rip and tear his personal belongings, but this trampoline withstood it all! I washed it regularly with dish soap and the hose, left it in the sun to dry, and never saw any signs of rust. I like that it has no springs, and the elastic bands are very strong. It is relatively easy to pop open, although I needed help from another adult to do it. I did have to replace it because he eventually broke through several of the elastic bands, but even this took him many months of gradual picking and tearing.

I just assembled it and am 160 pounds.There are 28 straps and 6 legs. That means 2 straps must be pressed up against the legs and might wear out prematurely. I decided to leave the cover off so I can see where those are and keep them front and back, farthest from my feet, so they won't fail as soon.I can see how the threads would be easy to cross thread. I was very careful and avoided doing so. After reading other reviews, I will check leg tightness often. I also will leave the legs on.I bought mine brand new rather than save $10 on a used one since I feared others might cross thread and return. My threads were all good. Nothing missing or broken.The frame is designed for 4 lock pins, but only 1 is provided, and only 1 listed in the instructions. It would have to defy gravity to close someone, so maybe that is not an issue. People who fold theirs up might lose lock pins anyway.The caps to the leg holes were on tight. I removed them with a pliers. Also one leg had a burr, which I ground off on the concrete.Assembly took max 10 minutes with me being slow and careful, working alone. I was in no hurry and was taking pictures. Amazon won't let me upload them unless I give more permissions than I want to.Opening the frame to ready position is very easy. I don't know why others had trouble.I've not attempted to disassemble it. It would take too long to unthread and rethread the legs each time, and risk cross threading. Disassembly is practical for mailing and moving only.I'm leaving the handle off and plan to leave the base assembled and stored on its side.When I stand on it (160 pounds), it sinks 2 inches. Jumping does not sink it much more than that. Jumping is not tiring, but also not acrobatic. My feet don't get above the mat. I could do it for 10 minutes if I want. I'm bicycle fit, just injured.I just got this to rehab my knees. They can't handle jumping on solid ground or grass. This is rougher than a big trampoline, but it forgiving enough my knees can handle it. I think it may be optimal for rehab. A big trampoline would absorb too much shock and not make my knees stronger.I don't know if others would find this fun to jump on, but it is perfect for me as far as rehab.I'd give it 5 stars if it had 30 bands so none would rub against the legs. Hopefully this lasts long enough. Others won't like the none stowability. For $44 shipped, I'm an ungreatful consumer perhaps.Knowing what I know now, I would still buy this trampoline.

We purchased this trampoline for our incredibly active 6 year old for Christmas. What an incredible gift it has turned out to be! Where we live the winters are cold and harsh and it can be hard to give our active little guy enough space and time to get his energy out. We chose it because it was bigger than the trampolines marketed to children - and it is the perfect size for him to use now and as he grows. Even his 6th grade brother enjoys bouncing on it occasionally.This trampoline fits in our living room and he jumps on it almost every day (even now, 3 months after he got it). My husband and brother put it together in about a half an hour. It was fairly simple to assemble since they had 2 people working on it, but required some strength on their part. Not sure I could have assembled it on my own.Just a note - the box it's delivered in has a large picture on the front. If you're purchasing for a gift, any surprise may be spoiled if the recipient happens to see the box before you can get it safely hidden away.

my son used this for play

It was told small for me i wanted something bigger but the material was good and sturdy strong a little noisy but I believe they are all noisy your jumping on it of course your going to heat something I would recommend
