Which products are included?
The safety net enclosures are sold separately to be attached to trampolines that measure 10 to 14 feet in diameter. The net enclosure extends 6 feet above the trampoline, caging the jumpers. The safety enclosures are made of black netting, with yellow straps woven through the top of the net (with JumpSport printed in red) and red straps woven through the bottom of the net. To identify the recalled nets, consumers should look for black buckles and black or red extension straps on the yellow straps.
