User Submitted Jump Start Reviews (cont...)Date: 2008-12-29 Lots of Fun! My kids got this for Christmas from their aunt. They love it!! They are 6, 4, and 3. They love how it counts to 100 and makes funny noises. It was a bear to put together, but once its together it is pretty sturdy. Date: 2008-12-29 Love, Love, Love It! We picked this item for the Grandma to get and what a great idea we had! LOL My daughter absolutely loves this. She likes to watch TV and will jump while watching her favorite shows. My daughter is only 21 mos and younger than the "recommended" age bracket, but as soon as we got it together, she jumped on it like she had been doing it for years! The sound element is a bit loud for my liking, but it is cute and she enjoys it. I would recommend that 2 people put this together! Not a fun time! And do it when the kids aren't around so you can spread out! LOL The only problem I had was with the shipping and that doesn't really have anything to do with the item. They sent it in the actual box that the trampoline comes in and it was torn up quite a bit. Everything was fine though, and no damage at all to the actual item. A must have for any active toddler that loves to jump on the couch, bed, or chairs! We now point to the trampoline when she starts to jump on the furniture...and then she goes to it! LOVE IT! :) Date: 2008-12-26 Jumping Good Times We got this for my daughter who is 5. She loves this, it really is a great toy for inside. The handles are great and give that extra stability that she needs. My only disappointment with this was assembling. The directions were very vague; but with persistence and a couple "do-overs" we were able to get it. Be prepared for some additional stress with this. But overall my daughter loves it :-) Date: 2008-12-23 Fun but construction is a joke! Purchased this for our 25lb 3 yr-old despite the many reviews that it breaks easily. My hope was that my light-weight wouldn't cause too much wear on the bungee cord. It wasn't extremely hard to assemble but the directions are a bit vague. It takes concentration to ensure correct cord threading. My issue is two-fold: 1/ The green jumping mat is much smaller than the space it fits making it hard to adjust evenly. We ended up with a wider space at the bottom and so wide that the cord shows after the cover is on and you can see the floor. It shouldn't be a problem as long as my son's feet don't slip and fall through. 2/ The sensor for the games (I bought this model for the games) is a 3-way cord that connects under the mat to each leg. The sensor itself is a hook that connects to the front leg and when the tramp is jumped on, the cord underneath is supposed to be hit, which in turns pull the sensor hook out of it's base sounding the electronics. Well, it's not close enough to the mat to hit, especially for light-weights. I could barely hit it bouncing my foot on top and when I did, it was inconsistent. Also, the sensor and the cord loses slack when jumped on making it even harder to hit. O well, I hope my son likes it. He has low muscle tone so my goal was to provide him with something to help him build strength and balance. I probably would have went with a conventional rebounder of better quality after actually seeing this one but I'm not going to bother disassembling it to ship back now. My son probably won't realize what it's supposed to do anyway but it's still disappointing. Good luck! Date: 2008-12-02 So much fun...just loud My kids love this! This is such a great energy-burner before heading out, sitting down or after dinner. Every parent who comes over inquires about this since their kids are immediately attracted to it. It's just so much fun to jump! There is a slight british-accent voice that plays games with the kids or plays music which is loud and becomes annoying. The kids must find it annoying as well as they don't play it anymore. Great buy.
