Magic Circle Trampolines

Why should I pay more for a Magic Circle Trampoline rather than purchase a discount house trampoline?

	Magic Circle	Others
Construction	14 gauge steel 1.66" diameter on round 1.9" diameter on 16' octagon 450 lb weight limit	Often 15 gauge steel 1.5 " diameter 200 lb weight limit
Strength & Stability	Round - 6 piece toprail and 6 legs (total 12 pieces). Octagon - 4 piece toprail and 4 legs (total 8 pieces).	24-32 pieces, 3 piece legs and multiple pieces in the toprail (designed to fit in a box).
Moving Technique	Each leg holds 2 toprails together making a strong trampoline that 1 person can move across the yard without the legs falling off.	Some assembly instructions advise you to "tape all joints" with duct tape and even then requires two people to move the trampoline so the legs don't fall off!
Springs	8 1/2" galvanized longer springs ensure the mat lasts longer because the springs alone provide the bounce.	Some are only 7" heavy duty, short, stiff springs put added stress on the frame and the mat with every bounce.
Safety Pads	Double layer of impact foam over frame covered with heavy-duty vinyl backed with a breathable material to keep moisture out. Pads are securely attached because a spring goes through a sleeve at each end of pad not just secured with flimsy straps.	Usually thinner foam covered with a lower grade of vinyl or other material, secured with straps or ties that often detach allowing the pads to slip off the trampoline, providing no protection.

What is the recommended weight limit?
Magic Circle trampolines have a 450 lb weight limit while most competitors have a 200 lb weight limit.

How difficult is it to assemble?
No tools are required, no nuts, no bolts, no duct tape - one person can easily assemble any of our trampolines in 1/2 hour. Most discount store trampolines have nuts & bolts and often need joints to be secured with duct tape. These require 2 people plus an hour or more to assemble.

What would you recommend in quality or size of trampoline?
If a trampoline is being purchased for 1 or 2 small children to be used in a supervised environment and no adults or teenagers would ever use it, a discount store trampoline might be an acceptable choice. For a small family where parents or teenagers would use the trampoline, the 12' round Magic Circle trampoline would be a good choice. For a larger family, a 13'6" round Magic Circle trampoline might be advisable as it provides a larger jumping surface. For the ultimate in trampoline safety & fun, Magic Circle's 16' Octagon provides the largest jumping surface of all & according to many of our satisfied customers in America & Europe a superior bounce!

What is the warranty on the trampoline?
10 years on the frame, 5 years on the springs, 1 + 4 years prorated on the mat. Click here for more details.
