BCAN BT2 450/550LBS Mini Rebounder Trampoline for Adults with Bar, Fitness Trampoline with Bungees, Adjustable Handle, Stable & Quiet, Indoor Outdoor, Whole-Body Workout & Relaxation at Home-40IN/48IN

This appears to be a good solid rebounder that will serve the purpose it is meant for, but I haven't really had more than a fleeting opportunity to try it out. The following statements reflect my own quirks, so I didn't remove any stars as a result. First, I am pretty bad at assembling things. It seems like it used to be that manufacturers were fine hiring employees to put together their products. Now they expect their customers to d a substantial part of it. In the interests of happy customers and job creation, please hire somebody for the second part of putting your stuff together. (To be fair though, the little tool that came with it that put the bungees on was kind of fun.) Hint - go to You Tube where some very kind individuals who are not assembly challenged but very understanding of those who are will help a great deal. This also took up a lot more room than I anticipated. Years ago I had a rebounder without a handle, but now that I have hit those "Golden Years" I felt like perhaps some added stability would be a good idea. I probably have burned a good number of calories today trying to rearrange my living room to sort of blend it in, but to no avail. I think I will have to bring it down to my basement family room. This is a little unfortunate, as the adage "Out of sight, out of mind" will probably prove true once again, as it takes its place next to the exercise bike and treadmill. All in all though, my personal preferences aside, this looks like a solid, quality product that will be good exercise and a lot of fun for most who purchase it.

I’ll start with the good and say that this is a great little rebounder. This is the first one I’ve owned so I don’t really have anything to compare it to, but it seems perfect for beginners. I’ve only had it for a day (so will update review if needed) but it seems well made and I feel pretty confident in the elastic bands holding up over time (although I would assume the should be replaced at some point). So far I don’t have any complaints or concerns about the product now that it’s set up. It’s sooo much fun. I feel like a little kid. I love that it’s small and light enough to be easily moved or stored. It says you can fold it for storage purposes, but after feeling the resistance in the bands I don’t know that I’ll be attempting that lol! The assembly wasn’t especially difficult, but it does require quite a bit of grip strength and leverage to stretch the elastic loops, so if you have mobility or hand/finger strength troubles you may struggle quite a bit. The tools they include help tremendously, as does pre-assembling a few of the elastics, but it still took some doing. I wouldn’t say that the instructions were necessarily LACKING, but I feel like emphasizing a couple of things more clearly would have saved a lot of trouble for me lol. So I’ll share my tips in hopes it helps someone: - Definitely ACTUALLY read the directions (carefully!) and watch the video via the QR code BEFORE you start. I fancy myself pretty proficient at assembling things so I kinda just skimmed the directions and watched the video as I went along. Wrong choice. - Several loops came attached to the frame already, so I foolishly assumed they were attached correctly and just went along with that. However, about 80% through it, I noticed in the video that their loops looked slightly different than mine. Turns out the pre-attached loops must have slid around in transit since there wasn’t that much tension and they were aligned incorrectly. The little lumpy metal part is supposed to “lock” the elastic into place when properly secured. If you pay close attention to the instructions in the manual, use the triangle tool exactly as instructed, and make sure you compare your loops to how they look in the video, you should be able to figure out how it’s supposed to sit tightly. I don’t know how important that detail really is, but the tension in these bands is intense, so I didn’t want to take any chances on not doing it properly and having a band fly off and hurt someone. - Which brings me to my last point. PLEASE be mindful of where you have your face and other body parts while you’re securing the elastic. While I was reassembling my bands for the second time, I was using the triangle tool to stretch the elastic and using the side of my knee to hold the frame down. My hand slipped, and the triangle tool (which had the elastic stretched over it) snapped down like a very large mouse trap on my ankle lol! Totally my fault, but these are very strong bands that you stretch quite a distance and the welt/bruise on my ankle leads me to believe that someone could very easily be very hurt if not careful.

The BCAN rebounder arrived on time, no damage to item or packaging.I absolutely love it! It will hold up to 450 lbs. It's easy to put together as it is shipped almost all assembled. Of the 32 bungies on it I only had to attach 11. A couple of small tools come with it, (very easy peasy) No missing parts. It comes folded up and an elder person (I'm in my 70's and I was able to open it myself with a bit of effort) or someone with some physical disability may or may not need a second person to help them open it. BUT DO BE CAREFUL! The rebounder comes folded up and there are some heavy duty springs on the hinges so it can snap back and hit you in the face. (No I didn't get hit but you need a bit of muscle to open it correctly) Make sure when you open it that you open it all the way so that it locks open before you let go of either side. I knelt on one side using a folded towel as a knee pad and lifted and then pushed the other side all the way down onto the floor. Then I carefully and slowly let go. Just be sure to READ THE INSTRUCTION BOOK as it recommends checking the legs for tightness every so often. A safety railing can be ordered with the rebounder (I bought one) and I would recommend it to anyone who might have some balance challenges. In fact I wonder one could order two of them, one for back and one for front. I didn't find two necessary though. The bungies are better than the spring ones as the springs are noisy. I use my rebounder sometimes at 5 in the morning and it never wakes anyone up. Super quiet. For some stepping up on it might be a bit of a challenge for someone with some mobility issues so I recommend getting one of those aerobic stair steps that were popular a few years back. That in addition to the safety railing would really make it very easy for someone to get on and off safely. The rebounder is very easy on the joints provided you flex your knees slightly and don't lock them up. In addition to the rebounder I have a bike trainer, dumbells, an ab machine, and a heavybag all which I use regularly but if I was forced to chose just one I'd take the rebounder. It's just so much fun! A 10 minute workout on a rebounder is equal to a 30 minute walk. Rain or shine, too hot, too cold, snow, slush, windy, whatever doesn't matter, I just hop on and take it for a bounce. Sneakers, barefoot either way. Sometimes I just get on in my PJs before a shower, no getting dressed in workout clothes for the trip to the gym. I work quite a bit at my desk so I set my phone timer and every 35 minutes I get up and get on the rebounder for 2 minutes. The health bounce is bouncing while neither one of yur feet actually leave the surface to with the rail it's very stable. I think every office should have one next to every work station. When I started my legs were really tired after only one minute in spite of my regular use of the bike trainer. Now I do 10-20 minutes no problem. I also use it withe leg weights and now that I'm use to it I use wrist weights and swing my arms. It's also a great mood booster. My daughter was a little alarmed when I said I was going to get one and she advised me against it fearing that I would fall (sigh, seems like you acrue a few years and they have a rocking chair waiting for you lol) I bought it anyway. Love it. It's also well made and good quality. The weight limit is 450 pounds. I know this is long but for me it was an excellent investment and it's not that expensive as quality rebounders go.

BCAN 450/550 Foldable Mini Trampoline 48" arrived quickly and with no damage. The package was well packed with styrofoam protection and all parts secure in plastic bags. Nothing missing...I received 2 extra bungie cords. After reading documentation I found setup to be quite easy. Everything went together as it should with only a small issue with one of the handrail leg screws being a bit tight going into the frame threading. This is my first rebounder so I can't compare it to others but it seems firm yet offers enough bounce for me (200lbs). Some suggestions: 1. Take some (or more) of the pre-installed bungies off in order to make unfolding much easier. 2. Install the hinge pins on top of the frame instead of the bottom as indicated in the manual (see images) in order to reduce possible chafing/abrasion against bungee cord. 3. After hinge pins are inserted, set the trampoline on a raised surface (a bed) to make installing the bungees easier. 4. Pay attention to the placement of the rubber covered metal bungee clamps, they should be placed (poorly shown in the manual) in a position between the mat and the frame (see images), not in the metal bracket attached to the mat (as I have seen other purchasers do, which may have caused premature failure). 5. Because there are a lot of bungies (40 on the 48") there will be a few that will rub against parts of the frame hardware and may cause some amount of chafing/abrasion with usage. (Personally, I'd prefer a non-folding version of this trampoline that did not have the folding hinges which I believe might contribute to chafing/wear.) Try to place all bungies so as to cause as little abrasion as possible (no twists or overlaps). I am satisfied with this purchase so far. I only plan to use it for light bouncing 7 days a week for 10-15 minutes. I have to be realistic about how long before a component will break. 100 bounces/minute x 10 minutes/day x 7 days = 7000 bounces/week. The BCAN website itself advertises an elasticity test of 30000+ for the bungies and their manual does mention the need for inspecting and replacing components caused by normal wear. Warranty on bungies and mat are 6 months...everything else is 1 year. That said, it appears to be a solid product for the price and hope to get good use out of it while keeping in mind that I may have to replace something eventually.

Came pretty quickly, considering the rural area I am in. I was able to assemble it my self. I’m pretty tall and weigh a fair bit so it was able to deal with my weight as the metal framing is very sturdy and strong and doesn’t buckle. The mat is strong enough and makes it quite bouncy but not too hard of a bounce. It was great that I had all the tools available plus a few extra bungees in case there’s any breakages in the future. I scared the QR code and watch the video which made it very easy for me to put together and follow. Would recommend a study surface because when I’m using it, the wooden floors move a little in this old house and the TV starts to rock a little on the TV cabinet. Overall, everything I expected and more.

Love it , super easy to put together , all the tools provided. Bungee bands way better than metal springs , gentle on the joints . The hand support bar is adjustable to really good height options for someone who is tall . Highly recommend . Just be aware if buying off AU Amazon it took 3 months to be delivered .

A very sturdy small trampoline ... it took me about 15 minutes to set up by myself. I have been jumping on it this week and it has not hurt my knees at all. It is a lot of fun to use

First of all we have been so impressed with the quality of our BCSN Rebounder! After ten months of daily use, often an hour a day, one bungee broke. The company responded so quickly to our inquiries with a link on Amazon US. When I told them it wouldn’t send to Canada they asked for our address and are sending replacement bungees directly! That is amazing service!! Thank you Alice, you ROCK!
