Super Jumper Trampoline Personal Injury Lawsuit Lawyers

SAN FRANCISCO, C.A. — The San Francisco-based trampoline manufacturer Super Jumper announced a recall for 23,000 of its trampolines. Super Jumper, with the assistance and approval of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, recalled its trampolines because of numerous complaints the company received from weakened welds that caused the trampolines to collapse while in use. At least four people who were jumping on the trampoline when it collapsed were hurt according to a report appearing on finance.yahoo.com. Super Jumper said that it would provide repair kits or other safety devices if the owners want them. Super Jumper is not offering a cash refund for its defective trampolines.

All tolled, Super Jumpers received 97 complaints about the railings on some of their trampoline models breaking. Fortunately, only four people complained of minor injuries when their trampolines broke while they were using them. Neither Super Jumpers nor the Consumer Product Safety Commission specified the extent of the injuries or described what they meant by “minor.” 

Super Jumper announced that it would send repair kits to consumers who want one. Consumers also have the option of asking for clamps designed to secure the railings. The clamps will reinforce the welded joints of the trampoline. 

Consumers who own a Super Jumper 14-foot trampoline or a 14-foot or a 16-foot combination trampoline with included enclosures are the products at the highest risk for failure. Super Jumpers said the reinforcement kits are designed for these items. The trampolines now recalled were sold online through several retailers including Wayfair and Walmart. The products were available in a range of $200.00 to $400.00. 

Any consumer who owns a trampoline made by Super Jumpers should check the welds and railings for structural integrity. Any defects must be repaired immediately. If not, a child or adult jumping on the trampoline could suffer a serious injury, including a head injury, if the item collapses while in use.
