MY THOUGHTS:

First off I should say trampolines and kids scare me.  I fell off a trampoline when I was younger and I have never felt safe around them.  When I saw the handlebars on the iBounce Kids Trampoline I knew it was perfect for my kids.  I also felt better knowing that JumpSport has been a leading manufacturer of fitness trampolines and 15 years ago they invented the very first backyard trampoline safety enclosure which now protects millions of kids worldwide.  I feel that JumpSport understands safety.  My boys (3 and 5 years old) are very active and couldn’t wait to jump on the trampoline.

While the trampoline does say easy to install it did take my husband about an hour.  You have to really pay attention as he did a few things backwards.  Once installed though kids are ready to go!  The handlebars are angled perfectly that my boys have no problem holding on and they actually like to!  The design of the trampoline is also a triangle, which is unique compared to traditional circle designs.  There is also a padding around the edges so the springs aren’t exposed.

As far as the Tablet Mount goes, we honestly don’t use it much as my boys are happy to jump around while watching cartoons on the television.  As far as installing the mount goes it goes on and off easily and it is sturdy.  My husband was skeptical with them jumping on the trampoline with the iPad so close, but it clipped in there pretty tight and didn’t budge.

Overall, I really like the iBounce for its safety of the rails and my boys love the fun it brings.  They have become “jumping fools!”  It is the perfect size for them (they are 3 and 5 years old) and it doesn’t take up a lot of room due to its triangular shape.  I have never bought a traditional circle trampoline because of fear of my boys falling off, catching on the springs, or just hurting themselves in general; while they could of course hurt themselves on the iBounce by jumping improperly, it definitely makes me feel safer.

He did stop jumping to take a bit of his waffle (I don’t let the kids jump with food in their mouths):
