Fabulous Fun
We moved to Tasmania from Melbourne in October last year. We promised the kids that we would buy them a new trampoline after we left our Springfree Trampoline in Melbourne. After considerable research I purchased the Thunder Extra Large. Not only was it a lot cheaper than our previous Spring Free trampoline it had a lot more bounce and was superbly enginered. It was a two man job to put together but we had it done in about 2 hours. The kids love it and would sleep on it if we let them. In two words "highly recommended"

Great Trampoline, very intelligent design and quality product
Great Trampoline, very intelligent design and quality product.
Challenging to put together, however, worth every minute. The design is purposeful and very intelligent.
Ordering and delivery was of ease and great customer service as well.
Our girls love this trampoline and have already got hours and hours of 'Vuly time'!
Thank you!

Awesome Tramp but SO hard to setup
We did our research and knew it was the right one for our kids (12,8,7). They have always lived on our trampolines so we just wanted a better quality one which would last longer and encourage even more outside play time. They love the basketball hoop and mat icons. Lots of creativity there. The net is fantastic. A warning though - it really is just so ridiculously hard to get the springs on. It took 3 strong adults with ropes and lever pulls, and a couple of kids hanging off the levers for extra weights. It really is hours of very intense hard ...Read more
work to get those springs on. (My 12yo has a theory that the instruction video is played backwards as it is that easy to get the springs off, but definitely not on! There is no way you can pop all the springs on as easy as the guy does in the video). Also - the video doesnt really explain the physics of putting the mat on with equal tension and how important it is- we thankfully knew this from instruction videos from other trampoline companies in the past. i.e. do everything in exact opposites around the mat or its hours of more pain and heartache. But apart from the setup - we LOVE this trampoline. Agree that it would ideal if the shade & basketball hoop could be used together, but my kids jump a little bit high for the shade anyway. Hoping we get the longevity out of it that we wanted.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Awesome trampoline, excellent quality and very easy to assemble, bought it for the kids for Christmas and they have been on it everyday, highly recommended. Great customer service from start to finish and very prompt delivery which was great especially around the busy part of the year. Great stuff guys!

Great trampoline
This is a awesome trampoline the kids love it. Really like it how it has 150 kg rating. It means the whole family can get on and bounce at the same time. It is so good for the kids learning how to balance and jump. My son is on it all the time and his balance has improved.

Fun for all ages!
Although we found it (extremely) difficult to assemble (ie stretch the mat) and the instructions were really lacking and not so helpful. After almost 6 hours, a few cuss words and temper tantrums, the effort was well worth it (we just never want to reassemble it ever again!) I don’t know who’s the bigger kid when it comes to playing on it - my son or husband!? We all love it! Our son was stoked when he came home and seen the thunder in the backyard (it really is quite an impressive rig!) The shade is great for these blistering summer days, and the hoop and deck adds for extra fun. Definitely a worthwhile purchase that the whole family will love. Added bonus, it gets the kids of the couch and technology!

Great Trampoline once assembled - Spring to Mat connection a nightmare
It is new, a Christmas gift, but so far it appears to be of good, sturdy quality. More importantly is that the Kids love it. The extra large is a great size for our three boys. However it is a nightmare to connect the springs, nothing like is show on the YouTube video. The rest of the construction was easy but the springs to Mat was impossible. I was able to get the first 15 springs connected with a lot of difficulty but no chance at the remaining 40+. I did a lot of research on the internet that night and came up with the following 3 suggestio...Read more
ns that I used and worked for us: 1 - used a tie down ratchet from the upper frame tube (where you want to connect the spring to the mat) to the far side leg then tension, this brings the opposite sides of the frame closer together. 2 - use a wooden dowel inside the bottom of the leaf spring lever provided, this will mean that the top of the lever will be lower on the spring, so that when you push the spring it will go closer to the mat and at a much better angle to connect to the mat. 3 - use a smaller tie down strap to place around the hook on the mat, get a helper to stand behind you as you push the spring, get the helper to pull the strap, one end in each hand. This will bring the mat closer to the spring. Even using the above techniques it was still a hard job, but it was achievable and given the fun the boys are having on this now it was worthwhile.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Thunder trampoline for Christmas!
Our 5 and 6 year old love their new trampoline and spend lots and lots of time on it. It’s also good exercise for parents too. We make up games about who can be the first to jump on the printed pictures-like find an animal and we scramble to find the koala, cat or dog picture on the trampoline. Safe and fun!

Could have bought an easier trampoline.
We were extremely excited for our purchase for our young family especially our two autistic boys who we were recommended to buy this for them as therapy. After purchasing I called for help through the support line, no one returned my call, still to this day, in regards to the bolts in the upgrade pack. We had so much trouble putting this trampoline together with four adults. Every accessory that came with it was a struggle to attach, the shade is so hard to put on and off especially if it’s just me doing it. And the fact you can’t use the baske...Read more
tball ring while the shade is on I am having to say no to using it a lot of the time due to the hassle of trying to take it off and put in on when I am on my own. Trying to assemble it as a surprise on Christmas Eve we didn’t finish until 4am and it still wasn’t complete, to say it ruined Christmas is a slight understatement. I was unhappy with the support, and still am as nobody has still ever returned my call. We paid a lot for this piece I wonder if we would have been better going elsewhere and finding an easier trampoline to assemble, better customer service, and doesn’t always require multiple people to assist with simple accessories being attached.2 comments

Amazing !!
Relatively easy to put together..a little time and effort never hurt anyone! The instructions are actually really good - better than I expected. The kids absolutely love their vuly - it’s in use every day, rain, sunshine (the top cover is great) no matter what. I should have bought the ladder, but it’s easy enough to get into and not high enough to cause injury if a fall did occur. Top notch in our book.

Great Trampoline
This is great trampoline very safe and my son loves it. It was hard to connect leaf springs to mat took me and my husband a lot of effort but now its together great. Do beware was quite easy to put the net inside out too so make sure its right before you attach the springs. Love the shade cover and cant wait until my son is a bit older to use the basketball hoop too. Will be looking at wheels soon as its quite large and hard to move around so will get these to make mowing the grass underneath easier. Overall its a great trampoline made well which we should have for years to come. :)

Very Happy Kids
Living in Far North Queensland has not be kind to our previous Trampolines so when it was time to upgrade we went with Vuly because of their fantastic quality and the warranty that they provide. We have not been disappointed with their product or service. We choose the thunder because when you have limited space in you backyard we figured we could store other outside toys underneath the Trampoline when its not in use.

Awesome trampoline!
ran into trouble putting it together xmas eve as there were no instructions or required nuts & bolts in boxes. Whilst it caused panic (mad rush to hardware store 1hr drive away) we managed to get it together for kids to be surprised in morning. Vuly were great about this. Apart from taking our calls late xmas eve, they are sending out a free water mister for our inconvenience. Great customer service and great product.

Kids can't get enough of it
We bought a Vuly Thunder as a family Xmas present and don't regret it one bit. We use time on the trampoline as a reward for good and positive behaviour on our kids' part and it works like magic. They are always on it. The trampoline itself was a bit hard to assemble (tip - view the video instructions before starting assembly) but it is obviously well made and very safe to jump on. Yes, it is worth the money - every single dollar.

Awesome trampoline!
Very good quality product, strong and sturdy and well made.
The size of the extra large is perfect for both kids and adults alike to use.
A bit difficult to assemble though, it took three adults six hours to get it all together!!
Love the accessories too, the basketball board is providing hours of fun, and the sunshade is absolutely fantastic for hot days.
All in all, we are very happy with our purchase! :)

My son has found a new hobbie
I haven’t seen my son, master 9 since Xmas day. He is always on he’s Vully practising somersaults and back flips. He is so proud that he finally did a forward somersault on day 5 and landed it on he’s feet. I love the feeling that I know he is secure and won’t fall off or land on the spring.
He also has the shade cloth so on the 35-40 degree days I know he won’t get sunburnt. The only problem I have is taking the shade tent on and off every time he wants to shoot some hoops. For peace of mind and keeping him entertained (we live on a farm, out of town) it’s worth every cent.
We also had an amazing delivery time. Thanks Vully.

Best Tramp Ever
We bought this as a Christmas gift for our 3 boys aged 6, 8 & 11. They absolutely love it! Its large enough for flips and acrobatics and they love playing games with the icons on the mat. Seems a lot sturdier than brands we've had in the past - which is why we opted for this brand after recommendations from friends. The basketball hoop is quality too and they love slam dunking on the tramp!

Quality is disappointing
Found instructions confusing, very thankful for Google. Stitching has let go on a number of spring holders, caused injury with each unexpected release - have had to re-stich several holds and am now super nervous every time someone is jumping and there is a bystander (especially a child as they are usually at head height to the springs). Found the inclusion of the basketball hoop and the shade a contradiction of extras as you can not use both at the same time...Construction was frustrating to say the least, and requires a person with great st...Read more
rength to complete the task. Love using the product, the shade and sides make it a wonderful play area for all the family. Am sceptical about the longevity of the product but only time will tell.

Questions & Answers
Nwruckasked
We have had our Vuly Thunder for a few weeks and have realized our daughter is having an allergic reaction perhaps to the terylene in the netting? She is itchy and scratching to the point she cannot sleep. Has anyone else had this type of reaction to this product?

Hi Nwruck,
Thank you for your question.
We have sold our Silk terylene nets since 2008 and to be honest, this is the first time we have come across this type of inquiry!
We do have, however, have two different types of netting materials that we use for our new trampolines which might be able to be used on your trampoline (depending on size/model)
I have sent you a PM and would love to look into this further for you.
Kind regards,
Vuly.
Hi, haven't seen a PM. We have a Thunder XL purchased from Flaman Fitness in Saskatoon on August 5. We have instructed our daughter to stay off the trampoline to make sure that the reaction is from the material in the netting. We will not know for a couple days yet. If it is, is there another option for this make and model?
Thanks for your prompt reply!
