This trampoline is just what we were looking for. The higher weight limit was the main reason we chose it.  It was not so easy to assemble, but that was expected. Be aware that the basketball will 9/10 end up on the outside of the trampoline when your kids are shooting. We used some sturdy clamps and attached bird netting to the backboard and then safety pinned it to the rest of the net. So far it has held up well in the Nebraska summer storms.
