FOR LONG-LASTING OUTDOOR FUN The Plum Magnitude Trampoline has a solid steel frame, galvanised inside and out, for additional protection against rust. Trampolining can help to develop co-ordination and gross motor skills, encouraging kids of all ages to keep active and have fun doing it. You can find the perfect trampoline for your family in our extensive range, whether that’s a 13ft trampoline for bigger gardens or a junior trampoline with a supportive handle for younger kids. Make sure to measure the available space before you decide on a trampoline – the length and width of your garden may decide whether you want a rectangular trampoline that’s longer than it is wide, a circular 8ft or 10ft trampoline, or a larger 12ft or 13ft trampoline. The Trampoline and Enclosure​ is built to be extra durable and weather-proof, so it can stay outdoors throughout the year. The frame is made from rust-resistant material and the trampoline springs are covered with padding to ensure durability as well as safety.

Key specs – Sizes: 4 circular (8ft, 10ft, 12ft, 14ft); Frame: Galvanised steel; Netting included: Yes; Warranty: 2 years for frame, 1 year for fabric elements Shorter Length Springs Smaller springs on the Junior Trampoline range give a safer, more predictable bounce, just enough for little ones to reach for the stars! It depends on who will be using it. If you’re a beginner, or a parent of a beginner, and want to be extra cautious, you might decide to go with a protective netting around the trampoline. However, you won’t really need one if the person using the trampoline is quite experienced. Also consider that trampoline netting doesn’t last forever as it can be torn rather easily or simply rot over time when exposed to direct sunlight. They can easily be bought at a later date or replaced. What accessories are available? We have been running this business and providing for families since 1988, with play always being our top priority.

Sportspower Trampoline: The best full-sized budget buy The frame should be made of galvanised steel (ideally with weld-free construction) to ensure that it won’t rust and will cope with the stress of people jumping on it day after day. The enclosure should be strong and weather-resistant and fit securely to the trampoline frame using padded poles – these prevent jumpers from landing on the springs and frame without compromising on the amount of jumping space. While it isn’t a necessity, there are a variety of add-ons available to trampoline buyers, including ladders to help kids climb in and out safely, as well as stakes and anchors to ensure the trampoline stays securely in place. There’s even sports equipment available to help make trampolining more competitive. What else should I consider? Be warned, though, that it’s very easy to underestimate just how much space you’ll need for a trampoline. Before investing, be sure to measure out the area where you want to put it – and make sure it’s surrounded by grass or AstroTurf rather than hard concrete to reduce the risk of injury if your child falls off. You should also ensure there’s enough space either side for the kids to get on and off and make sure it’s not near obstacles such as branches. Do I need an enclosure?

Available in five sizes, the Magnitude is the perfect trampoline for kids (and adults!) aged 6 years plus. The only hard part is the installation: you’ll probably need a day to dig the hole, and another half day (with helpers) to get it all set up. It might be a better idea to pay for Capital Play’s own installation service. Round is the most popular shape: it’s the cheapest to make, and the bounce is light and easy in the middle. Hexagonal designs are a fun alternative and offer the same kind of bounce. A rectangular trampoline will suit those more serious about gymnastics, as they offer the best quality of bounce to achieve high jumps, while oval trampolines are great for narrower gardens – and for multiple jumpers, as bouncers don’t all tend to gravitate towards the middle. Octagonal trampolines also give a more predictable vertical bounce. What size should I get? If you’re looking for a fun trampoline on a budget, this is your best buy. It has a high-quality galvanised steel frame – something you won’t often find at this price – and the safety enclosure is simple to take on and off if you want to store it away during the winter months. It comes with a ladder, as well as padding for the poles and frame to help prevent injuries. It’s not quite as robust or long-lasting as the more expensive trampolines in our roundup, but it should see you through a few years of jumping. Our only real gripe is that the springs can squeak during bouncing, but it’s not so loud as to annoy the neighbours. Safe And Sound All of Plum's Junior Trampolines are supplied with an enclosure net, which creates a barrier between bouncers and the floor to catch them if they fall.

ACCESSORIES

This octagonal trampoline makes it easy to jump straight upwards, as opposed to round frames that bounce you towards the centre of the trampoline. It’s also got a patented crawl-through tunnel-style entry and exit system instead of the more traditional zip entry – a boon, as one of the biggest causes of trampoline injuries is zips being left undone. In fact, it’s been such a success that TP has rolled it out onto other designs. How to choose the best trampoline for you (and your kids) Should I buy an in-ground or overground trampoline?
