I have 2 granddaughters who use this daily. The oldest of the 2 is four, and she feels it's more of a gymnastics bar than it is a jumping trampoline. Every time you look at her, she is hanging upside down from the bar or flipping herself over and around it. Her little sister uses the trampoline to jump, so at least it's getting worked correctly by one of them. My DIL put it together herself, so I don't think it would be much of an issue if you're handy. Assembly was straightforward, she said. There is really no noise from it. The spring strength seems adequate when both girls are on it and using it. Even the baby will climb on and he can now reach the bar when he stands so I see him starting to give it a go shortly. We keep the bar tightly screwed together for the oldest, because she feels better regulated upside down, even though it says not to use it in this way. Eventually, when they move to a different house, we or her other grandparents will have to build her something more substantial to hold her flipping weight, but for now, it easily accommodates her 38 pounds. It's stable and we have it on foam puzzle blocks in case someone takes a tumble. The only issue I have with it is that the cover of the springs easily pops up, and the baby tends to get stuck in the gaps as he goes up on and down on it with his sisters. Again, not supposed to be used by a 13 month old, but you know how babies are. I think it was definitely a good value for the money and I expect it to last for at least a few more kids.
