Trampoline Buying Guide — Limerick
How to choose a BERG trampoline for your garden: the range, the shape, the installation type, the size, the safety net and the accessories.
1. Choosing by Quality Range
BERG sells three trampoline ranges. They differ in springs, jumping mat, padding, safety net and warranty.
| Feature | Favorit | Champion | Elite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price from (with net) | €449 | €1,119 | €1,449 |
| Springs | SoloSpring | TwinSpring | TwinSpring |
| Jumping mat | AirFlow | AirFlow Pro | AirFlow Pro |
| Padding | 20mm | 30mm | 30mm |
| Safety net | Comfort | Deluxe | Deluxe |

| Padding warranty | — | — | 5 years |
The BERG Favorit is the entry range. The BERG Champion and BERG Elite share the same specification; the Elite adds a 5-year warranty on the padding.
2. Choosing by Shape
Round
Suits: Suits most gardens and younger children.
Price: From €449 with a net (Favorit 6.5ft).
Oval (Grand)
Suits: Fits long gardens.
Price: Grand Favorit from €1,079, Grand Champion from €1,279, Grand Elite from €1,949.
Rectangular (Ultim)
Suits: A powerful, even bounce preferred by gymnasts, but it asks more skill.
Price: Ultim Favorit 280 with net €669; Ultim Champion 330 with Deluxe net €1,189.
3. Choosing by Installation Type
BERG trampolines come above ground (Regular), InGround or FlatGround.
Regular (Above Ground)
Stands on legs on the lawn. Above-ground trampolines must be anchored; an anchor set costs €55.
Example: Favorit 11ft with net €659
InGround
Set into a pit so the mat sits 10 to 20cm above the lawn. No ladder needed and far less exposed to wind. The pit must drain.
Example: Favorit 11ft InGround €739. Champion and Elite InGround cost the same as above ground.
FlatGround
Completely flush with the grass. Needs the deepest pit, across the full width of the frame, on a level, well-drained site. Champion, Elite and Pro Bouncer only; round FlatGround models take no safety net.
From €999 (Champion 330, no net)
We do not offer an assembly or digging service, but we can refer you to an independent installer.

4. Choosing by Size
Allow 2 metres clear on every side of the trampoline. Measure your garden before ordering.
| Size | Space Needed | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 200cm / 6.5ft | 6m × 6m | 50kg limit, for younger children |

5. Safety Nets and Safe Use

Deluxe Net
Comes with Champion and Elite packages, with a self-closing entrance. Replacement netting: round €159–€249, oval €239–€389.

Trampoline Buying FAQs
Which BERG trampoline range should I choose?
The Favorit is the entry range (SoloSpring springs, AirFlow mat, 20mm padding, Comfort net, 8-year frame warranty with registration), from €449. The Champion has TwinSpring springs, an AirFlow Pro mat, 30mm padding, the Deluxe net and a 13-year frame warranty with registration, from €1,119. The Elite has the same specification as the Champion plus a 5-year padding warranty, from €1,449.
What size trampoline will fit my garden?
Allow 2 metres clear on every side. A 6.5ft trampoline needs about 6m × 6m, 9ft 7m × 7m, 11ft 7.5m × 7.5m, 12.5ft 8m × 8m, 14ft 8.5m × 8.5m and a 17 × 11ft oval 9.2m × 7.5m. The 11ft is the most popular size in Ireland.
Should I choose InGround or above ground?
An InGround trampoline sits with the mat 10 to 20cm above the lawn, needs no ladder and is far less exposed to wind, but the pit must drain. An above-ground trampoline needs no pit but must be anchored; an anchor set costs €55.
Does a FlatGround trampoline need digging?
Yes. A FlatGround trampoline is completely flush with the grass, so it needs the deepest pit, across the full width of the frame, on a level, well-drained site. Only the Champion, Elite and Pro Bouncer come in FlatGround.
What is the most important trampoline safety rule?
One jumper at a time is the single most effective rule. Supervise younger children, and no somersaults without training.
Do you install trampolines?
We do not offer an assembly or digging service, but we can refer you to an independent installer.
