When you try to bounce, this trampoline might break. That’s why it’s been recalled.
Trampolines that collapse while in use aren’t just part of cartoon life. That’s why about 23,860 Super Jumper Trampolines have been recalled.
The exact problem, as stated in the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recall notice: “The welds on the metal railings (legs) can fail, posing fall and injury hazards.”
Super Jumper claims it’s heard of this happening 97 times, which have produced four minor injuries.
The 14-foot and 16-foot trampolines were sold online via Amazon.com, Hayneedle.com, Overstock.com and Wayfair.com from November 2011 through June.
