Just got it today and fooled around on it without the DVD's. Just cranked up some good music and jumped on it for about 20 minutes. I did get out of breath faster than I thought and broke a sweat within a few minutes. Which is a good thing if you want a workout. I did notice my calfs felt like they were on fire after being off it for around 3 minutes. My fault for not stretching. I'll probably be paying for that the next few days. I have about 40 pounds to lose and I think this is really going to help me achieve it. I'm 44 but was athletic back in the day...and know a good workout when I feel it. I studied martial arts when I was in my 20s and 30s and I remember my instructor swearing that trampoline work was one of the best ways to improve balance, flexibility and quick flex muscles in the legs. Just be careful on this thing and do it for a few work-outs before you get over confident. I started doing some big jumps by bringing my knees up to my chest and almost wiped out after losing my balance but caught myself in time. I'm going to stick to jumping just a few inches high for the next week or so until it feels more second nature. I definitely endorse this equipment so far...but will write another review in a couple of weeks to comment on any weight loss if any. It definitely makes you feel like a big goofy kid again jumping up and down...and it's alot safer than jogging on ice. It's worth the money. I bought a new one [] for less than $100.00 with shipping. Good luck.

I have had this product for 2 years and it is fun. It is a nice change up to reg. arobics and the treadmill and cycle. I have not lost weight using this but I don't think it hurts any to get on it and get your heartrate beaming! I do it while watching t.v. and my kisd love it too. It is fun for the whole family, just be sure to rebound as the dvds teach not bounce for a good workout!

I have been using the urban rebounder for three months and I love it. It is fun and I actually look forward to exercising on it. It is easy on your joints and you do break a sweat but you do need some coordination to keep up with the tape. It takes some practice but it is so much fun that you want to do it. It does beat running on a treadmill. I like the intermediate on the first DVD but I really liked the sports specific segment so I purchased the sports specific DVD online and it is great. My rebounder hasn't had any problems and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to lose weight and have fun doing it!

I have had this a couple of weeks, I got rid of my Christmas 5lbs within a week and this is partly to thank. I use this alongside my supreme pilates table. I dont use any of the DVD's or do the workouts, I just jump on and jump on it for 30 mins, side to side, in and out, knees up, flip your heels back like you are running etc etc....for 30 mins a day. I then do 30 mins on my supreme pilates table per day...........I have to say, having done spinning, body pump etc etc, this combination is really really producing results and quicker. There is a con............ I am feeling very stiff when I first get up in my lower back, which wears off after a few minutes but I hobble like an old lady for a few steps, I am getting sharp pains in my knees if I bend down or walk downstairs. However, I personally am choosing to keep going as the weight is coming off and my muscles are becoming increadibly firm and I can see a rocking body forming which will hopefully come through when the fat burns off.

I'm 13 years old, and my family has had the rebounder for about a year. I wanted to lose weight, but I decided, "Eh, I'll do it later." When I did, I found out it was SO MUCH FUN! I have a playlist to all the songs I like on my computer and I just bounce and dance to the beat of the music. I've been doing it for about 3 days and I already see results. (I have to mention though, my playlist of 76 minutes long) Just because I'm a teenager doesn't mean it's east for me to lose weight (for older folks it is harder, but if you really work hard...) I hope this review helped you.

I have had Rebounder 11 months now, and it's still my main piece of cardiofitness equipment.I could not do the beginner DVD, so I do my own thing on the Rebounder; I turn on the radio and move, dance, jog, whatever I feel to the beat of the music.I also get my arms into it, the inertia involved adds some resistance.I get on several times a week and really enjoy it.You can do as little or as much on the Rebounder as you feel up to, and work up.I do go to the bathroom first (several times during a workout at first) got a good sports bra, and stretch very well afterwards, really in the calf area.I keep it upright in the corer behind a lace screen out of view when I'm not using it, it has been easy to store without folding it up, which would be quite daunting.

I've been rebounding for 4 days and I love it! I can actually see my tummy shrinking! The Basic is a very hard, high intensity work out, but I don't give up that easy. The balancing handle has been very helpful. I really want to get the dance work out dvds for it! Oh and I'm very sore from using it, which means it's working!

ordered urban rebounder , weigh 150 the eye bolts holding springs failed, called company they knew what I was refering to said I had two year warranty, it would cost 3.95 to ship new bolts .I received eventually, they had to back order, now have, can't pull springs to connect to eye bolt,I would like to get new rebounder because without the springs attatched i'ts useless, the ad bragged much on how durable the product was, I still have all my reciepts and the broken eye bolts,I really enjoy excercising on mini trampoline but afraid more eye bolts will continue to fail so I really feel I should'nt of had to pay shipping for the eye bolts in view of the fact that the trampoline was touted as being very durable almost indestructable I'm not heavy nor did I use it every day so I would not recommend this particular mini trampoline..... thankyou, cathy

I’m 270lb, and I’m starting again with the battle of the bulge, and I’m not new to exercising. I needed a jump off tape that was about 20 minute, so I could slowly work my way up. I tried the beginners Billy Blanks tapes, but it was too advance and stressful for my knees. Just imagine 270lb woman jumping off the hard floor and landing back on it. The Urban Rebounder is less stressful on my knees and the kit has basic, beginners, intermediate, and advance. I suggest this tape for everyone but especially for those who are over a hundred pounds. Remember to utilize commonsense. Try not to expect to do the whole tape perfectly. Depending on how often you work out it make take some time to get to that point. Remember to go your pace. Don’t do anything that’s uncomfortable or too painful, but remember soreness is apart of the loosing weight game.

I used this product last March. On the second day of my workout I felt a sharp pain in my knee. I was doing some type of a twisting manuever that was on the workout DVD. I ended up tearing the cartilage in my knee, having painful knee surgery, and my knees have never been the same since. I sold my rebounder to a skinny friend. I'm about 50 lbs overweight so I'm wondering if that contributed to my injury. Just be careful!

I love my rebounder! Lot's of fun makes you feel like a kid! The quality is excellent but the music and instructors drive me nuts. So I just set up a playlist on my Ipod and away I go. My own music makes me work harder and it tunes out the kids.If you are new to excercise or have taken a break for awhile it might seem like you'll never make it thru the basic routine but stick with it. After about the 3rd time you'll be fine. It is easy on the joints but can be hard on the feet. So make sure you have good shoes on. I've gone down one pants size in about a month. I do eat sensible too. I can actually feel the firmness in my but and legs and abs. Try it! Shop around they are out there for under a $100. Good luck!

I used this product for about three weeks. My DVD was damaged so I could not really follow along. The spring on one of the legs broke, so I was forced to put it out back and my kids used it to jump on!

Just purchased Urban Rebounder at the local sporting goods store. It was on sale, so I saved about 20 off advertised price, and no shipping charges. Putting it together was easy, but rebounder does have a strong rubber odor which I expect will probably dissipate with time. That didn't really bother me.... The rebounder came with a DVD that had an instuctional segment and 2 full workouts. Basic workout was about 40 minutes and it was very energetic and a lot of fun. I actually I broke a sweat which I didn't expect this being a basic workout. The intermediate workout was about 45 minutes long and also was a blast! Music is very upbeat, and you not only get a great cardio, but good ab work as well. Both workouts were easy on my knees, and I had fun. I am an intermediate excerciser, and I do recommend Urban Rebounder for all fitness levels.

I've had my rebounder for 3 months now - I love it - and it keeps me pretty fit. I had initially tried a rebounding class at my gym (in New York) and when I moved to Florida I purchased my own from the infommercial. It's a fun workout that gets my heart racing every time. It never bores me and the instructor (although a little loopy) is a blast. As a person who normally despises exercise I'd probably weigh 200 pounds if it weren't for my rebounder. A+

I've had the Urban Rebounder for a year now and I love it. I now have 3 compliation videos, the box and bound and ballet bound being my favorites. I have had knee trouble since high school and this is the only thing that doesn't bother my knees. When I first started I did have knee pain because I wasn't putting all the weight on the ball of my feet, once I fugred that out I was good to go. And I'll admit I had trouble folding the rebounder in the begining.... I had to watch the dvd serveral times to figure out how J.B. does it, but its actually very simple. You just have to make sure you are standing on one side of the spring when you are folding it and it pops up easily. I'm no athlete by no means, but I love my rebounder.

I bought the Urban Rebounder a little over a mouth ago because I was bored with using my treadmill. I really like to get on it, and just do my own thing, and have not used the video yet. Several years ago, I had another rebounder, and can really notice a difference in the quality and effects that this one has on my body. Although it has a really strong odor, either it has gone away, or I've just become used to it.

I bought the UR and every video a couple of years ago. I use it mostly in the winter/cold months for my cardio when I don't go to a gym. Yes it's a bit squeeky but so what? It's an awesome 45 min workout and hits all the muscle groups I want to and great cardio and abs. I love the intermediate workout which is 45mins long and includes all that I mention plus sports specific training. I am an endurance runner and I love this thing because it's easy on my joints. I burn as much calories working out on this for 45 mins as I do running.

I purchased this product a while ago thinking that it would help me lose some weight, WRONG. I didnt lose any weight on this program (as i did follow a doctor recommended diet) and in fact caused alot of stress on my knees. I would not recommend this to a friend because it caused me a lot of undue stress.

This was a fun program, easy on my joints and back and did get my heart rate up some, kind of a pain to put together and take aprt--at least it was for me. Would suit someone who is older and someone who is new to exercise.
