How should we select the perfect garden trampoline for our large backyard? Here's some tips for comparing safety features, sizes, and durability, finding the best outdoor trampoline for family fun.

1. Size Matters: Choose the ideal size for your garden trampoline

1.1 For small gardens:

• 6ft trampolines (about 1.8 meters) are more suitable for personal exercise, not to bounce as much as you want, with a small usable area and can only be simply jumped up and down.
• 8-10ft round trampolines are suitable for 25 square meters of space, which is more jumping space than 6 feet trampolines.

1.2 For large garden:

• 12-15 feet large backyard trampolines are your ideal choice. Alternatively, you can choose a 7x10ft rectangular trampoline or even a larger trampoline.
• Oval trampolines (such as 8x12 feet) are ideal for adults to jump.
• If your garden is large enough, you can also try a 14-16ft trampoline.

* Tip: Please make sure there's 3m clearance around your garden trampoline for safety. In addition, considering the height of the jump, the clearance height should be about 24ft (about 7.3 meters) .

2. Except size, the safety of the garden trampoline should be considered as well

✅ 360° UV protection net to ensure that people will not be thrown out of the trampoline when jumping
