JumpFly Trampoline Size Guide

What Size Trampoline Should I Buy?

Compare 10FT, 12FT, 14FT, 15FT and 16FT trampolines by the space they need and the room they give your family to play.

Start with your yard. Measure the usable, level area first, then choose the largest size that leaves the clearance required by your model instructions and local guidance.

A quick starting point

Choose the card that sounds most like your yard, then confirm the measurements in the chart below.

Use the clear-area column for planning. It includes room around the frame; always confirm the exact requirements in your model instructions.

Approximate planning measurements

Size Approx. frame diameter Suggested clear area A good starting point when…
10FT ~3.0 m / 10 ft ~22 ft across Your usable yard is more limited and you want the smallest footprint in this guide.
12FT ~3.7 m / 12 ft ~24 ft across You want a balanced family-size option and have a standard suburban yard.
14FT ~4.3 m / 14 ft ~26 ft across You have more room and want a larger usable jumping area.
15FT ~4.6 m / 15 ft ~27 ft across Your yard has room for a larger round trampoline.
16FT ~4.9 m / 16 ft ~28 ft across You want the largest round size available in this guide.
Safety reminder: only one person should use a trampoline at a time. Follow the age, weight, supervision and weather instructions for the exact model you purchase.

16FT

Maximum round size

Our largest round size in this guide; confirm the full planned footprint first.

How to measure your yard

Do this before choosing a size. The goal is a flat, well-drained location with clear space around and above the trampoline. For a visual planning walkthrough, see our backyard space guide.

Measure the usable area

Measure the open area, not the entire property. Mark the diameter of the size you are considering with a hose or chalk.

Check the clearance

Keep fences, walls, trees, furniture and other obstacles outside the clearance required by your model instructions.

Look above

Check for branches, rooflines and cables. The space above the trampoline must be clear.

Confirm the ground

Choose level, stable, well-drained ground. A slope should be corrected before installation.

Size questions, answered

Still unsure? Read the 10FT vs 12FT vs 14FT comparison, then use the exact product specifications before ordering.

Is the listed size the jumping area?
The listed size refers to the approximate trampoline frame diameter. The usable jumping surface is smaller, so compare the product specifications rather than assuming the full diameter is jumping space.
What if my yard is between two sizes?
Choose the size that leaves the required clear area. A correctly placed smaller trampoline is safer than forcing a larger model into a tight space.
How many people can use the trampoline?
For safety, only one person should use a trampoline at a time. Follow the exact model label, manual and supervision guidance.
Can I add a trampoline tent later?
Yes, but size alone is not enough. Tent compatibility also depends on the enclosure pole style and pole count. Use the Trampoline Tent Buying Guide before ordering.
What if I cannot identify my trampoline size?
Ask the original seller or manufacturer first. If you still cannot confirm it, use the measurement instructions in the tent guide or contact JumpFly support before ordering.
