Plain-English summary

Sportspower Ltd. is recalling approximately 23,400 Parkside model TR-14FT-COM trampolines. These 14-foot diameter trampolines were sold exclusively at Sports Authority stores nationwide from April 2007 through May 2012 for about $540. The trampolines feature blue or light blue fabric on the safety matting and enclosure pole sleeves, with "Parkside" printed on the enclosure net.

The recall is due to a hazard where the trampoline's metal legs can move out of position and puncture the jumping area. This poses a risk of injury, including deep, penetrating puncture wounds, cuts, and bruises to children and adults. Sportspower is aware of one incident where a leg separated from the frame while in use and punctured the jumping surface, but no injuries have been reported.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled trampolines. They should contact Sportspower to receive a free repair kit. Sportspower can be reached toll-free at (888) 965-0565 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, online at www.sportspowerltd.net, or by email at [email protected].
