Best Trampolines with an Enclosure Net (2026): Sewn, Clipped or Outside the Springs?

Every backyard trampoline has a net now. The difference is whether it attaches to the mat inside the springs or hangs outside the pad. Eight models ranked on that, plus poles, padding and what ships in the box.

#ad · Prices come live from Amazon, last checked November 9, 2026. Scores are ours, built from published specs, manuals and warranty terms on a rubric we publish. Product photos come from Amazon; a pick we have no photo for shows none. Tap a row for the full write-up.

The three net designs

Net outside the springs. The net is tied to the poles and sits outside the spring pad. The pad is inside the play area, so a child can land on it, on the springs under it, or wedge a foot between net and mat. This is the design on most entry-level trampolines and the reason CPSC insists the pads must "completely cover its springs, hooks and frame." None of the picks above use it, though the outside-mount replacement nets exist for frames built that way.

Net inside the springs, attached to the mat. The net is sewn to the mat (Zupapa), buttoned to the mat's V-rings at every spring (Skywalker's patented no-gap system), or clipped to the mat edge all the way round (Jumpflex SafeSeal, ACON direct-to-mat, Upper Bounce). The jumping surface is the whole area inside the net and the springs are outside it. This is the design to buy.

Springless. Springfree replaces springs with composite rods under the mat and hangs a flexible net (FlexiNet) on flexible rods. There is nothing rigid at net height and no spring bed at all, which is why it scores a 10 on enclosure design; the trade-offs are a 220 lb single-jumper limit and the price. The full argument is on Springfree vs spring.

How we scored these

The five-metric rubric on how we rate applies, but this page exists for the 30% enclosure metric: net-to-mat attachment, pole design and padding coverage, all from the maker's page. The order still follows the overall score, which is why Zupapa (sewn net, stakes included, 10-year frame) sits above Springfree (perfect enclosure score, anchors extra, lower limit). A trampoline with a great net and no anchors is still a trampoline that can leave the yard; how to anchor a trampoline covers that.

What a net does not fix

CPSC says enclosures "can help prevent injuries from falls off trampolines." The AAP's 2012 policy statement is blunter: most injuries happen on the mat with multiple jumpers, and current safety measures "have not appeared to mitigate risk substantially." A net stops the fall to the ground. It does not stop two kids colliding, the smaller child being launched by the larger one, or a botched flip landing on the neck. Those are the injuries in the hospital data on trampoline injury statistics, and the rule that prevents them is one jumper at a time, which no product enforces.

Replacing a net vs replacing the trampoline

Nets wear out first. Warranties on this page run from 6 months (ORCC) through 1 year (Skywalker, ACON) and 2 years (Zupapa) to 10 years (AlleyOOP, Springfree). If the frame is sound and the mat is intact, a replacement net matched to your pole count and diameter is the cheaper fix; the best replacement nets page covers Skywalker model-coded kits and Upper Bounce's universal nets. If the frame is rusting at the joints or the springs are stretched, start over with a design from this list and read best trampolines for the full field.

The design argument behind this ranking is set out on trampoline net inside or outside the springs.

The frames that delete the springs altogether, rather than keeping the net clear of them, are ranked on best springless trampolines.

How we picked

Why these picks made the list

Every pick is scored from the maker's published specs, manual and warranty terms on a safety rubric we publish (net and edge design, anchoring, rated capacity, standards, install reality), and the sources behind each number are listed at the bottom of the page.

Scores are our editorial judgment of that published information. Nobody pays for placement, and an unpublished spec is never guessed upward. See every rubric and weight.

FAQ

Questions parents ask

Do all trampolines come with a safety net?
Most sold today do, but the design varies. The question to ask is whether the net attaches to the mat inside the springs or hangs outside the pad on the poles. Every pick above is the former.
Are trampoline nets safe?
CPSC says enclosures can help prevent falls off the trampoline. The AAP notes safety measures have not substantially reduced injuries, because most happen on the mat with more than one jumper. A net is necessary; it is not sufficient.
How high should a trampoline net be?
Makers on this page publish 6 ft (Zupapa, Jumpflex) or 71 in (Upper Bounce). AlleyOOP's 10x17 rectangle uses 7 ft poles. Height matters less than attachment: a tall net outside the springs still leaves the pad inside the play area.
Can I add a net to a trampoline that came without one?
Yes, if you match the diameter and pole count and buy an enclosure kit that includes poles (Skywalker sells complete kits for its own models). See replacement nets.
