The kids enjoyed it very much
Once the trampoline was installed, the kids really enjoyed bouncing on it and had so much fun.
Happy Hideouts was very helpful with helping me choose the correct trampoline.
Quick delivery and very happy with the service

Awesome trampoline
My kids have found this to be the best trampoline outside of some of the professional trampolines that they have been on. They love it and live on it! Doubles have become easy and they are working on bigger tricks already. Happy hideouts were really easy to order from, either great advice given. 10/10 service.

ACON 55 inch hexagon rebounder
Purchased the hexagon 55 inch rebounder and the quality of the material is evident upon opening the box. The assembly was straight forward and easy for one person. Having previously purchased a spring rebounder which was not kind to my back and joints the Acon rebounder was a welcome improvement from the first bounce. The equipment is sturdy with a lovely bounce. I am enjoying the wider surface bounce area afforded by the bigger rebounder, and enjoy using it daily. Happy Hideouts service was quick and efficient. I can definitely recommend the company and especially the Acon 55 inch hexagon rebounder.

Trampoline is perfect and the girls love it!
We finished installing our trampoline (everything went to plan!) - it’s perfect, our girls love it and say that it is the best bounce they have experienced on a home trampoline. Happy Hideouts were very supportive with help choosing the right trampoline and during the whole process.

First Class Trampoline & First Class Service
We purchased the Acon X trampoline and we received a fantastic service: Happy Hideouts kindly advised what accessories were best for our planned use of the trampoline, and which were not yet required. Delivery from abroad was fast. Installation was smoothly undertaken by Happy Hideouts team. The finished trampoline is awesome - far better than our previous outdoor competition-grade trampoline, from a different supplier. Aftercare by Happy Hideouts deserves particular praise. We have no hesitation in recommending the Acon X trampoline and Happy Hideouts: 10 out of 10.

Very much recommend this company.
I ordered from here as the price was really good.
The re bounder was delivered promptly and it is really excellent, great build quality.
I did have a minor issue with the handlebar, but they sorted that out with no issues.
Great product, price and brilliant customer service, what more could you ask.

Amazing professional bounce trampoline
Service and communication was great from happy hideouts. The trampoline was straightforward to assemble, and you can see that it’s fantastic quality and heavy duty, compared with a normal garden trampoline. The kids have used indoor professional ones for the past 2 years, and they consider this to have a very similar bounce. They are on it non stop, so well worth paying the money if you want a high quality outdoor trampoline.

Highly recommend!
Communication was excellent from advice before ordering to delivery to after sales.
We paid to have them build the trampolene and that was very efficient and on time.
Overall very pleased with the company and would certainly be buying from them again.

Excellent Service
I had wanted to upgrade our swimming pool this year (I seem to have predicted our recent heatwave!), but the larger pool that I wanted was sold out everywhere. I managed to find one at Happy Hideouts and so after a bit of digging contacted Warren on whatsapp to ask when it would be able to be delivered if I ordered it. Warren said it would only take a couple of days as it was in stock. So I took the plunge and ordered it. I got updates on the order and delivery dates, and then 2 days later it arrived, exactly as detailed on their website. We have now been using it for 2 weeks in this heatwave and it is a godsend for my 4 kids (and all their mates!). Well done Happy Hideouts, you have made some kids very happy.

Excellent
The pool is superb for all of the family, we have upsized from small circular to this beast!! Brilliant. It is already warm enough for the less brave and the children love it.

Is the Thermotec Mini Heat Pump really worth it for above ground pools? Here’s why UK families choose it for warmer water, easier setup and better summer swimming.
The Thermotec Mini Reversible 5kw Heat Pump is aimed at smaller above ground pool setups, making it a lovely fit for family gardens where space and simplicity matter. Rather than dealing with a bulky or overly technical heating system, this model gives you a more manageable way to keep water temperatures more comfortable through the main swimming season.
Because it’s a heat pump rather than a standard electric resistance heater, it’s designed to use energy more efficiently. That means you can warm the pool more economically while making it far more tempting for children, parents and the odd brave grandparent to actually get in.
What's included with the Thermotec Mini Reversible 5kw Heat Pump?
- Compact Thermotec Mini Reversible 5kw Heat Pump design
- Ideal for above ground pools
- Efficient 5kW heating capacity
- 0.98kW heating power input at 27°C/24.3°C conditions
- COP of 5.10 at 27°C/24.3°C conditions
- Useful performance in cooler conditions with 3.3kW capacity at 15°C/12°C
- Bluetooth app control for easier day-to-day use
- Rotary compressor
- Single fan system with horizontal fan direction
- Compact dimensions for easier placement in smaller spaces
- Operating ambient temperature range from -7°C to 43°C
- Water temperature operating range from 15°C to 44°C
How does the Thermotec Mini Heat Pump for above ground pools help you heat water efficiently? Here’s why it can lower running costs and help you enjoy the pool more often.
This Thermotec Mini model delivers 5kW heating capacity at 27°C/24.3°C test conditions, with a heating power input of 0.98kW and a COP of 5.10. In practical terms, that means it produces significantly more heat energy than the electricity it consumes, which is exactly what makes a heat pump such an appealing choice for home pool heating.
Even in cooler weather, it still offers solid performance. At 15°C/12°C, it provides 3.3kW heating capacity with a COP of 3.3, so it still works as a sensible solution when the British weather is doing what it does best and refusing to fully commit to summer.
Why do shoppers searching for a Thermotec Mini Heat Pump 5kW review keep coming back to this model? Here’s why it suits smaller pools and simple home use.
When people look for a thermotec mini heat pump 5kw review, they’re usually trying to answer one very practical question: will this actually make the pool more usable without being a pain to own? On the face of it, this model ticks plenty of the right boxes. It’s compact, straightforward, efficient, and designed in a way that suits smaller family pool setups rather than more demanding commercial-style installations.
It also includes useful modern features that make everyday ownership a bit easier. Bluetooth app control means you can manage settings more conveniently, and its compact body means it won’t dominate the whole pool area. For parents who want straightforward comfort rather than more technical faff, that’s a pretty appealing mix.

Is the Thermotec Mini right for your pool?
If you want the quick answer, the Thermotec Mini is best suited to smaller above ground pools and straightforward family setups where you want warmer water through the main summer season without overcomplicating things. If your pool is larger, more exposed, or you want stronger heating earlier and later in the season, it may be worth stepping up to Neo, Inverter Pro or Inverter Edge.
Please note: suitability depends on pool volume, whether you use a cover, your target water temperature, and how early or late in the season you want to swim. If you are unsure, it is usually better to check what size Thermotec heat pump you need first rather than guess and hope for the best.
| Model | Best for | Recommended season | Max pool size / volume | When to choose it |
| Thermotec Mini | Smaller above ground pools | Main summer season | Up to 10m³ | Choose the Mini if you want a compact, simple heat pump for everyday family use in a smaller pool. |
| Thermotec Neo | Buyers wanting more efficient everyday heating | Longer swimming season | Varies by model size | A good step up if your pool is larger or you want stronger all-round performance. |
| Thermotec Inverter Pro | Larger pools and stronger heating demands | Extended swimming season | Varies by model size | Choose Pro if you need more output and want a more capable inverter heat pump. |
| Thermotec Inverter Edge | Buyers wanting a more premium inverter option | Extended swimming season | Varies by model size | A strong choice if you want a higher-spec setup with more advanced performance. |
