What is a Rectangular Trampoline and Why Could This Be the Best Choice for Your Garden?

A rectangular trampoline offers more control and higher jumps than round models, making it popular with experienced jumpers and families who want to maximize space.

At Etan, we notice that many Dutch gardens require neat solutions: a rectangular trampoline often fits better in a corner or along a fence while providing sporty jumping fun. In this article, we discuss sizes (like 153x214, 214x305 and 244x366), placement types (on legs, inground or flatlevel), maximum weight capacity, and which accessories make a difference. Also read on for practical links to our advice pages such as choosing the right size, the difference between flatground and inground and round vs rectangular.

How Do Rectangular Trampolines Differ in Size and Load Capacity?

Rectangular trampolines range from compact 153x214 cm models to large 244x366 cm variants, with maximum weight capacity usually between 100 and 150 kg.

Practical examples and tips:

• 153x214 cm: handy for small gardens and young families; often equipped with ~44-72 springs.
• 214x305 cm: medium-sized model, popular with families; balance between jumping space and garden space.
• 244x366 cm: spacious model for advanced jumpers and adults; suitable for more dynamic exercises.

Note: manufacturers often communicate a maximum tested weight (e.g., 500 kg tested means 100 kg recommendation with safety factor 5). At Etan, we always advise using the maximum load as a guideline and consider faster wear with consistently heavier use.

How Do Springs and Padding Thickness Affect the Jumping Experience?

More and longer springs generally provide a smoother and higher jump; pad width (e.g., 30-43 cm) increases safety when contacting the edge.

• Short example: a model with 76 springs of ~18 cm generally offers better jumping comfort than a basic model with 48 springs.
• Wide safety pad (30-43 cm) cushions impact and prevents feet from getting between springs.

Why Choose a Trampoline on Legs or an Inground (In-Ground) Model?

A trampoline on legs is easier to install and move, while an inground model integrates better into the garden and is less wind-sensitive.

Advantages summarized:

Trampoline on legs

• Quick and easy to install
• Portable
• No digging required
• With safety net (mandatory)

Inground trampoline (flat to the ground)

• Aesthetic - garden view
• More stable - less wind-sensitive
• Lower fall height
• Safety net optional

Practical tip: for an inground trampoline, allow on average 1.5 meters of free fall space around it. For small gardens or temporary solutions, a model on legs is often the most flexible.

What Does Installation Cost and How Long is Delivery?

Delivery time is 1 to 4 days, depending on address and stock. At Etan, pickup is possible in Boxtel, North Brabant.

With the included manual, you can install the trampoline yourself. Etan offers an inground installation service and a assembly service for those who prefer full support. For exact costs, consult the service pages.

How Safe is a Rectangular Trampoline and Which Safety Measures Are Important?

In terms of safety, a rectangular trampoline scores similarly to a round trampoline; crucial factors are the safety net, sturdy padding, and proper installation.

Key safety aspects:

1. Safety net: mandatory for trampolines on legs; optional for inground.
2. Padding: wide and thick enough to prevent contact with springs and frame.
3. Frame and tube thickness: thicker tubes (e.g., 2.0-2.5 mm) provide more stability.
4. Maximum user load: respect the recommended maximum per jumper.

Practical tip: check springs, padding, and net for wear annually. Replace parts in time; Etan provides spare springs, pads, and jumping mats to extend lifespan.

When is a Safety Net Mandatory or Optional?

A safety net is recommended for all above-ground models; for inground models, it can be optional due to lower fall height, but for young children, a net is still advisable.

What Role Does Material Choice (Frame, Jumping Mat, and PVC Pad) Play?

Galvanized steel for the frame prevents rust; UV-resistant jumping mat and PVC pads (0.35-0.55 mm) reduce wear in Dutch weather conditions.

Which Accessories Are Essential and Extend Your Trampoline’s Lifespan?

A sturdy pad, reliable safety net, good springs, ladder, cover, and anchoring set make a real difference in usability and lifespan.

• Cover: protects the mat from dirt and rain; recommended for longer lifespan.
• Ladder: necessary for above-ground models for safe entry and exit.
• Anchoring set: increases stability in wind and intensive use.
• Spare parts: springs and pads wear out; timely replacement prevents dangerous situations.

Practical tip: replace springs in sets to maintain even tension and avoid incomplete maintenance that harms jumping comfort and safety.

Which Service Does Etan Offer for Parts and Custom Solutions?

Etan offers spare parts and can provide custom solutions for professional or special requirements, such as indoor setups or custom dimensions.

For example, if you want to create a professional training garden, we advise considering frame thickness, spring configuration, and required safety measures together.

How to Choose the Right Size and Model for Your Family?

Choose a size that fits available space and intended use: small for toddlers, medium for families, and large for athletes or adults who want higher jumps.

Checklist when purchasing:

1. Measure available space and consider free fall space.
2. Determine users: children only, children and adults, or athletes (choose higher weight capacity).
3. Decide on installation: on legs (flexible) or inground (aesthetic and wind-stable).
4. Check accessories: net, pad, ladder, cover, and anchoring.

Example advice: for mixed family use, 310x232 cm is often a good middle ground; for serious athletes or larger families, 380x275 cm provides extra space and comfort.

What Maintenance Rules Extend Lifespan?

Regular inspection, cleaning, winter storage of pads or use of a cover, and timely replacement of springs significantly extend lifespan.

• Monthly visual inspection of frame, springs, and net.
• Clean jumping mat with a soft brush and lukewarm water; no harsh chemicals.
• Replace worn parts before safety risks arise.

What Are the Advantages and Disadvantages of Rectangular vs Round?

A rectangular trampoline provides more control and higher jumps; a round trampoline is often more user-friendly for beginner jumpers.

Short overview:

• Advantages rectangular: even spring tension, better corner use, ideal for acrobatics.
• Disadvantages rectangular: requires more experience to use safely and may be less forgiving for beginners.
• Advantages round: easier for children and beginners due to natural central guidance.

When is a Rectangular Trampoline Really Recommended?

If you have space, want to use your garden efficiently, children older than 6-10 years, or adults practicing tricks, a rectangular trampoline is a wise choice.
