What Sizes Do Round Trampolines Come In?
Always remember the golden rule - one jumper at a time ensures safe bouncing for everyone. It's a bit like queuing for the bus - much safer when we take turns!
Common Round Trampoline Sizes
Small Round Trampolines (8-10 feet)
Perfect for Compact Gardens
Perfect for children aged 6 and above, these space-saving models are ideal for typical UK town gardens while providing plenty of bouncing fun in a compact package. The 8ft version needs roughly the same space as a small car, while the 10ft requires just a tad more room.
Medium Round Trampolines (12 feet)
The Family Favourite
The 12ft trampoline is our bestseller, and for good reason. It hits the sweet spot between size and practicality for most British gardens. You'll need a space roughly 6m x 6m to accommodate it safely, but the extra bouncing area makes it well worth considering if you've got the room.
Large Round Trampolines (14 feet and above)
For Spacious Settings
These grand designs are perfect if you've got the garden space of a country cottage. They offer maximum bouncing area and are particularly popular with older children who enjoy practicing their techniques.
Trampoline Size | Total Space Needed | Best For | Typical Age Range |
---|---|---|---|
8ft | 4m x 4m | Small gardens, ages 6+ | 6-10 years |
10ft | 5m x 5m | Medium gardens, growing families | 6-12 years |
12ft | 6m x 6m | Average UK gardens, all ages | 6+ years |
14ft+ | 7m x 7m+ | Large gardens, teenagers | 8+ years |
Choosing Your Perfect Size
Garden Measurements Matter
Before you get carried away with dreams of backflips (safely done, of course!), grab your tape measure. You'll need to consider not just the trampoline's footprint but also that all-important safety perimeter. Don't forget to account for things like garden furniture, washing lines, and those prized rose bushes!
Think About Your Users
While bigger might seem better, many children (aged 6+) often feel more confident starting with smaller trampolines. Consider who'll be using it most when making your choice. Remember, every size in our collection comes with the same high-quality construction and safety features.
Installation and Setup
Ground Preparation
A level surface is crucial for safe bouncing. Most UK gardens need a bit of preparation - we can advise on whether your chosen spot needs any work before installation.
Professional Installation
While all our trampolines come with clear assembly instructions, our professional installation service takes the hassle out of setup. We'll ensure everything's perfectly level and secure, typically completing the job in a couple of hours.
