Anyone have an indoor trampoline?

No, really I haven't lost my mind :)

My girls LOVE them some jumping :) They stalk the double mini trampoline (2 handles) at Gymboree and we will finally have a ginormous playroom at our new house so I was thinking an indoor toddler trampoline w/ a bouncing handle/bar would be a hit with them. I have been researching them like crazy and am willing to pay a bit more for higher quality b/c I want it to be sturdy and stand up to daily use x2 kids which I know will be the case.  Anyone have one? I really like the Bazoongi 48" Bouncer and the price isn't too bad. It will be an online purchase and I hate not being able to compare in person... thanks!

    They are the best investment ever!

    Only problem we had was that unless they were placed like this or facing the wall they easily tipped forward.

    I would not recommend them just free standing somewhere. Miles tipped his forward the first day and we were lucky DH was there to catch him before he was injured!

    They use them everyday!

    That is a great pic! Is that the Galt (nursery) model? I read some reviews about the tipping. The model I am leaning towards looks similar with 1 handle, but it has 6 legs (vs. 4) and a little wider diameter (48") so most of the reviewers said it was really very tough to tip and you could let them jump without assistance.  I might have to pony up and get 2 if they are that great ;)

    We have one like pictured above, and DS LOVES it. It was actually a hand me down from my SIL.  We have not had any problems with it being freestanding, and DS is just over 40 lbs.  He uses it almost daily.

    ETA- the design looks the same as the red one, but mine is green and blue if that helps. We have never had it tip, having it for over a year.

    Yup Galt!

    The IL's got them last Christmas for the kids. We would not have survived without 2. Hell they fought over which one was which!!

    The tipping part sucks but honestly putting it behind the couches like that made me feel more comfortable.

    We have one of those...got it as a hand-me-down, so I don't know exactly what brand it is (too lazy to go look!) but K has loved that thing for a year now, with no signs of stopping.  Her favorite thing is to turn on the Mozart music cube and then jump to the music.

    my neighbor has the kid active trampoline which counts and sings the ABCs as they jump.  Her kids are 6 and 5 and it is in great condition even afer 3 years.  no issues of tipping either.  I plan on getting 1 for DS for this xmas.

    We have this one. The twins got it for their first birthday and they love it. We have it in the basement and I like the enclosure so they don't fall out. They are in gymnastics (have been since 17 months) and it really helps them learn new techniques and stuff... and it keeps them both occupied for HOURS...
