Where Elite sits in the BERG range

Elite is the top of BERG's residential range, above Champion and Favorit. The warranty table shows where the money goes:

* Registering your trampoline adds three years to the frame warranty. Free, and it takes five minutes.

Padding is the component that takes the weather — sun, rain and frost, year in year out. Elite's carries two and a half times the cover Champion's does, and that's the practical difference between the ranges. If you're keeping the trampoline a decade, it's where you'll notice it.

Sizes and the space they need

Two metres of clear space on all sides, so the ground you need is the diameter plus 4 metres. Check overhead too — branches and washing lines are what people forget.

Measure your flattest clear area and subtract 4 metres from each dimension — what's left is the largest diameter that fits. The 12.5ft is the size most Irish families settle on. Full detail in our size guide, or send us your measurements.

Why above ground

• Up this weekend. Two to three hours with two adults, no digging, all tools in the box. The children are on it the same day.
• It moves with you. Comes apart and goes back together, so it's the right choice if you're renting or might move within a few years.
• No groundworks cost. The trampoline is the whole expense.
• Easy to maintain. You can get underneath it — springs, mat and padding are all straightforward to reach and replace.

The trade-off is height and wind. At around a metre off the lawn it's a visible structure, and it must be anchored. If neither suits, the Elite InGround sits 10-20cm above the grass instead and rarely needs anchoring.

Elite specification

TwinSpring springs

A V-shaped double spring arrangement rather than single springs, spreading load around the frame. Smoother bounce, more usable mat, and a longer service life than a budget trampoline's spring ring. Covered for 5 years and individually replaceable.

AirFlow Pro jump mat

Perforated, so displaced air escapes as you land rather than fighting you. Two useful side effects in Ireland: it dries faster after rain, and wind passes through rather than pushing against it. UV-stabilised with reinforced stitching.

Padding — 5-year warranty

30mm over the frame, 20mm over the springs, 38cm wide, in 0.55mm PVC with enhanced UV treatment. Same 30mm thickness and 38cm width as Champion. What Elite adds is a heavier frame and a 5-year padding warranty against Champion's 2 — BERG's own judgement on how much longer it lasts.

Galvanised steel frame

Hot-dip galvanised inside and out, then powder-coated black over that. Two layers of protection, and the basis of the 13-year rust warranty.

Safety net

Deluxe (included) — 180cm. Curved poles positioned outside the jumping area so nobody can hit them, and a self-closing entrance rather than a zip that breaks or gets left open. UV-resistant mesh, attachment every 15cm, 2-year warranty. Right for children up to about 14, and the configuration most families choose.

Deluxe XL (upgrade) — 210cm, around 30cm taller. Worth it for teenagers who get real height, or anyone practising tricks. Also worth considering if anyone in the house is tall.

Anchor it the day you build it

An above-ground trampoline stands about a metre off the lawn with a net on top. In Irish wind that's a sail, and weight is not what holds it down — every winter brings reports of unanchored trampolines through fences and onto cars.

Fit ground anchors as soon as it's assembled and check them after every named storm. If you'll be moving it to mow, the 4-pack with straps unclips in seconds. Our anchoring guide covers every surface.

Worth knowing: storm damage to an unanchored trampoline isn't covered by the warranty.

Assembly

Two to three hours with two adults, longer on the 14ft. All tools are in the box, the BERG manual is good, and there are QR codes to video guides.

Frame and legs first, then springs and mat working opposite sides so the tension stays even, then padding, then the net, then the anchors. A spring puller tool turns the spring ring — the longest part of the job — into the quickest.

Ring us mid-assembly if you get stuck rather than forcing something. We can also put you in touch with installers across Ireland if you'd rather it was done for you.

Worth adding

• Ladder — at 95-105cm, children under about ten will otherwise climb the padding to get on, which wears it where it protects the frame. These sizes take the Ladder L.
• TwinHoop basketball — twin adjustable hoops on the net poles, about twenty minutes to fit.
• BERG Levels game — LED lights and app challenges in the mat.
• Weather cover — most people don't bother, and that's a reasonable call. Worth it if there are trees overhead or it's idle from November to March.

Maintenance

• Weekly: clear debris, check the anchor straps are tight
• Monthly: spring tension, padding condition, tighten loose bolts, check net attachment points
• Seasonally: clean the mat, inspect the net for tears, re-tension the anchors
• Annually: full bolt check, inspect every spring, check mat stitching and net pole security
• Winter: brush heavy snow off gently, check anchors after storms. The net stays up — BERG rates it for winter.

Looked after, expect 12-15 years. Mats, nets, springs and padding are all replaceable.

Warranty

Not covered: storm damage to an unanchored trampoline, damage from exceeding the weight limit or having several people on it, neglect, or accidents.

Claims are handled by us here in Ireland — genuine BERG parts, no international delays. More in our BERG warranty guide.

Safety

Always: adult supervision for under-12s, one person on the mat at a time, bare feet or trampoline socks, nothing sharp in pockets, a dry mat, 2m clearance all round and clear space overhead, anchors fitted.

Never: somersaults without coaching, use in high wind, jumping on a wet mat, more than the rated user weight for your size, pets on the mat, or jumping off the edge.

One at a time is the rule that matters most. Most trampoline injuries happen with several people on the mat, because a heavier jumper transfers energy to a lighter one.

Frequently asked questions

How does Elite compare to Champion?

Elite is the step up. Same 13-year frame warranty, 5-year springs, AirFlow Pro mat and 30mm padding. Elite uses heavier frame tubing and covers the padding for 5 years against Champion's 2 — padding being the part that takes the weather.

How does it compare to Favorit?

Favorit is the entry range: 8-year frame warranty against 13, and 2-year springs against 5. It's a good trampoline and the right buy for younger children or a tighter budget. Elite is what you take if you want the longest service from it.

Above ground or InGround?

Above ground if you want it up this weekend, you're renting or might move, or you'd rather not excavate. InGround if this is a permanent home, the garden's appearance matters, or the site is exposed.

What size should I get?

Garden first, family second. Measure the flattest clear area and subtract 4 metres each way — that gives your maximum. Within that, 11ft suits two or three children, 12.5ft is what most Irish families settle on, and 14ft suits a big family or older teenagers.

Do I really need the anchor kit?

Yes. Irish wind moves unanchored trampolines, including heavy ones, and storm damage to an unanchored trampoline isn't covered by the warranty.

Can adults use it?

Yes — 100kg on the 11ft, 110kg on the 12.5ft, 120kg on the 14ft. One at a time.

Deluxe or Deluxe XL net?

Deluxe is genuinely good and fine for children up to about 14. Take the XL if there are teenagers who get real height, or anyone practising tricks.
