This is our 2nd trampoline. This one was far easier to assemble, and bounces higher than the 14 ft trampoline I replaced. Setup was easy. I like the powder coated frame much better than the galvanized metal of our previous trampoline. Because the uprights for the net are so easy to install, I'd estimate that I was able to set this one up in 1 hour less time. And, I put the entire thing together alone while my wife and son were out. What a great surprise. My 10 year old son loves this trampoline. Much better than the 1st one, which was a different name brand that was also purchased at WalMart. If you are in the market, choose wisely, because there's a big difference in quality between various manufacturers. The quality of this one is much better than the last one.
