Go with the bigger one! Even if it may cost a bit more. Otherwise if you get the smaller one and it isn't big enough you have to get it sent back and wait for new one. Way too much hassle

The one that we had was 13 or 14ft in circumference. It was big enough for 2 to jump on but it would be wise to get the surrounding net that goes with it. I would advise against buying online because it could be worn and the springs could be stretched. If at all possible get a used one after you have actually seen it and tried it. Good Luck!

I don't think you should buy a trampoline from the Internet because 1)it might be broken or of cheap quality, and 2) you can't tell how big it is. I think you should go in person to a sporting goods store with your two kids, that way you can test them out and buy it brand new. Good luck and have fun! =)

Tradex (if you are in the UK) have a 14" on offer
and if you have a friend with a makro card they have a 12" on offer at the moment.
Tradex deliver by the way.
I had a look at a 14" one the other day and it's absolutely massive! So 12" should be just right for two.

An eight foot trampoline is designed to take 90 kilos max and should only have one person on it at one time.It is eight foot in diameter rather than circumfrence,a twelve foot one is much more roomy and you could possibily have two people jumping at the same time.I highly recommend you purchase safety netting to go with trampoline as it has saved my kids from a few nasty falls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great way to hurt yourself.Here's a clue...check out how much liability insurance would cost. Maybe even look up trampoline injuries..and ya I know they look like fun.

you should go with the 12 foot one just to be sure plus you could have more room so it is not cramp up like an 8 foot one. i had an 8 foot one before and me and my little sister could barely fit on it with out haveing to jump on each other.

Be careful and research them. Some have cheap springs and can actually be dangerous for your back.
