Recommended action
What to do
Consumers should stop using the safety nets immediately and contact JumpSport. JumpSport will send consumers free replacement bottom straps.
Product description
The safety net enclosures are sold separately to be attached to trampolines that measure 10 to 14 feet in diameter. The net enclosure extends 6 feet above the trampoline, caging the jumpers. The safety enclosures are made of black netting, with yellow straps woven through the top of the net (with JumpSport printed in red) and red straps woven through the bottom of the net. To identify the recalled nets, consumers should look for black buckles and black or red extension straps on the yellow straps. Other JumpSport trampoline safety net enclosures are not involved in this recall.
Reported incidents
JumpSport has received two reports of children falling off the trampoline when the straps on the bottom of the enclosure broke. No injuries have been reported.
