After three summers, I can say for us it was the right purchase decision. Our four children aged between 4 and 17 years old rage like savages on the trampoline turn somersaults, somersaults etc. There has never been an injury. Have Rezesionen read there was talk of injuries because of the inner rods, so we can not confirm. Our trampoline, despite heavy use fully intact. The only thing I'll swap now is the edge coverage, since it has suffered from the permanently exposed to weathering. We would buy it again !!
