Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a good trampoline or where to buy one. Budget between 200 and 500. Looking for a good durable one thatll stand test of time. Smyths been mentioned and they have 230 approx - any views?

Thanks

Got one in Smyths myself in 2021 for the kids. 12ft x 8ft for €350. It’s held well and was reasonably easy to put together. I got a ladder and tie-down straps which were extra.

I ended up going for a rectangular trampoline because it held up far better over the years, especially with older kids who really put it through its paces. The bounce felt more controlled, and the frame didn’t wobble the way cheaper round ones sometimes do. It landed neatly in your budget too, and the setup was way less hassle than I expected.
