I am deciding between a Jumpsport Bungee rebounder and a Rebound Air. My only concern is the 'spring' noise. Can anyone speak to that?

Our rebound air does make a lot of noise when the kids jump on it. It's not super loud or annoying, but it's definitely not silent.

Yes, it does. I wanted one with springs. I have heard that the bungee course breaks or wears out on the others. The springs also bounce more.

Ivan I have air play issues. It could be just my rauter location. The amazing sound makes up for the air play issues. Buy it.

I did not post any movie, but will confirm the crappy sound...any time you are over 30MPH or so, you will hear nothing but wind...that is true when I aimed it backwards too. I have it attached to my helmet, not the bike, and while I used it on one quite bike, the bike type would be irrelevant.

Never tried the jumpSport and I don't know much about it. I love the Cellerciser. A friend of mine did extensive research before deciding on hers and more than convinced me that it was worth the extra money (more than I'd typically spend). It was and continues to be worth every penny. Hope that helps.

The product itself is not inherently noisy. However when you bounce there is a slight movement when you jump the legs do hit the ground a tad... probably not nearly as noisy as if you were to just jump on the bare floor, but I can't imagine it wouldn't create a bit of rhythmic bouncing noise for the folks underneath you. The top & side apartments it would be the noise coming from your 'Bouncing DVD' that would be more noticeable!! Certainly not from the rebounder itself! It folds in half, not easily, but certainly doable, and would slide under a bed, or sit up flat against a wall nicely.

Yes, it would be too loud inside. I use it outside on fake grass so I don't anchor it and it moves every other jump. but my son loves it and i don't mind pulling it back into place over and over. I could anchor it but he's only 40 lbs and I play right there with him. hope that helps

This is considered Island Hopper's water bouncer. I does not have springs. It is a water platform with quite a bit of bounce.

If your floors are carpeted, that would help. I also think it might depend on your particular apartment building and how much noise you hear from your neighbors. The rebounder isn't especially noisy.

Mine is hung with cotton clothesline, just one strand simply tied around the body of the pump. I understand hanging it from a bungie cord or jumbo rubber band can reduce the vibration even further. Ensure that all your air outlets are in use or turned off. I have found the overall noise is greatly affected by which air stones are used. Mine is most quiet with the small 1" stones. If the air stones rest on a hard surface they can cause a lot of extra noise. Try holding the stones floating in the water to see if they are a source of noise and if so, arrange them so they don't rest on a surface that increases their noise. Sometimes even the air lines can cause a rattle when resting against other surfaces. You can follow the air line with your fingers to see if there's any place that's vibrating against something, and if so secure the air line with tape or whatever.

I don't think so. My kids jump so strong but doesn't effect anything. My house is connected with next door. However, we don't get any jump sound, because trampoline is stable and high enough. If you concern sound or vibration, I recommend to put something like an alphabet mats under it, which I'm using. Kids fun voice is more bigger than anything.

It's not silent - you can hear it moving. But most of the swings I saw were like that, plus they had that "click" sound. I personally don't mind the noise at all, it's almost like white noise, and some days that mamaroo is the only hope I have to get my son to take a nap! I know they made a new model for 2015, perhaps it's quieter?

Mine doesnt squeak! The springs provided with this swing are very high quality. My lack of squeak may be how it's hung -- I have heavy chain wrapped around an iron pipe, and the springs are hooked into this. Perhaps other methods of hanging will create more noise. I suggest trying it out and then evaluating your need for squeak suppression.

Not much you can do about the noise. Even the more expensive ones are at least a little noisy. Living in a cold weather state it's the best way to keep in shape for springtime when I can start riding outdoors. I put on my headphones and am happy I won't have to have a sore butt getting used to riding my own bike again every year.

My advice is to send it back. My Bounce back lasted less than a year before the springs started ripping thru their supports. Champion said tough luck. Find a different brand.

I'd say the rebounder takes over 300lbs safely. It's an excellent piece of equipment. Very sturdy.

Personally when you're setting up the rim you can adjust the breakaway spring before enclosing it. I tightened the hell out of it. Also, I have an additional amount of 150 pounds sitting on the base, sandbags/cinder blocks. It sounds good and doesn't shake like it's going to fall apart. I own 5 basketballs and even with multiple shots still smooth and consistent. Like I said it depends who's setting it up and to what liking, I don't play when it comes down to building things the correct way. Good luck.
