Note: This is just a quick summary of some of the most important specs this trampoline offers. If you’d like to see the complete list of specifications straight from the manufacturer, you can view them on Amazon here.
Pros
Large Jumping Area
The first thing you’ll love about this trampoline is its large size. Many consumers have said that this trampoline can comfortably fit 2 adults or 3 children.
Note: We’re not condoning having multiple people jump on the trampoline simultaneously or exceeding the SkyWalker 15 feet trampoline’s weight limit of 200 pounds.
This Skywalker Trampoline is large enough that you’ll rarely if ever wish you had a bigger trampoline.
Good Value
Another nice aspect of this trampoline is that it offers a solid bang for your buck. Obviously, Olympic-quality trampolines are going to perform better, but they’re also significantly more expensive. The Skywalker 15 feet trampoline is in a nice sweet spot that balances price and performance.
Everything Included
Christmas morning run to the store because Skywalker Trampolines failed to include all the necessary tools you need to assemble this trampoline? Sounds like a nightmare. Fortunately, it shouldn’t be reality.
Barring the rare shipping error, your Skywalker Trampoline will include all the tools, parts, and instructions you need to easily assemble your trampoline.
Quality Enclosure Net
Some people don’t like trampolines with nets because they think trampoline nets are unattractive. We don’t believe that, but it’s difficult for anyone to argue for or against the attractiveness of trampoline netting as it’s such a subjective preference.
What we will say, however, is that the netting included in Skywalker Trampolines’ 15 feet trampoline is made with high-quality material. While this netting isn’t going to hold up well against reckless teenagers trying to push each other off the trampoline, it may be the saving grace that keeps your toddler or elementary-age child from falling off.
Cons
Picky Manufacturer
While we understand where they’re coming from, some consumers are bothered by the fact that Skywalker Trampolines doesn’t always honor warranties or give replacement parts if you purchase your Skywalker trampoline from an unauthorized reseller. Be careful about who you purchase this trampoline from.
Mediocre Durability
Stories of consumers using this product range from families that have happily used the Skywalker Trampolines 15’ trampoline for years, to those that have had issues with bounce performance or manufacturing quality after just a few months.
We’d say that there’s an 80-90% you should be able to use this trampoline for a few years without any major issues but cannot make any guarantees.
Overall
Who should buy the 15 foot Skywalker Trampoline? We’d say this is a solid entry-level trampoline for families that want a large trampoline on a tight budget. If price is the most important factor in your purchase decision we’d say this is your go-to option.
If your budget is flexible, however, we’d suggest considering the JumpKing 15’ round trampoline for better performance at a higher, yet still reasonable price.
