Urban Rebounder - anyone?

HSN is having a sale on the urban rebounder.

https://www.urbanrebounder.com/

Curious if anyone here has tried this, and has liked it? I've heard a few mixed reviews on it... but It appears to be fun, and low impact is very very good for me, since I have a bad hip.

I'd love to hear from you! Thanks!!

I've not tried it myself... but my favorite site for opinions on products, Epinions has a few reviews on the product...

The cons seem to be it's not great if you are top heavy, have any kind of balance problem, and the portability of it seems to be a problem...

It looks cool though...

I was watching the infomercial last night...I'm such a sucker for those darn infomercials...anyway, I think I want one. The tapes/dvds look like lots of fun too. I want the latin dance one. I've been wanting to take dance lessons for a long time now (belly, ball and latin dance) but haven't done anything! So I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone. Did you get it? What do you think of it?

One of my main reasons for wanting it is so that I could run on it when it rains without having to get on the dreaded treadmill. Looks like a great full body workout. If you've purchased it Paper Moon I'd love to hear what you think of it.

hey, i actually made a post asking about the rebounder at The Club forum. a few people didn't seem to know what it was. my aunt has one, and i'm thinking about trying it. if/when she brings it to my house, i'll let you know how it works!

**btw, she never used it. well, she did, but on the first or second try, she fell and broke her ankle (like 15 years ago). she's a total klutz though, so don't let that discourage you. just be careful!

She had a rebounder 15 years ago? Or she reinjured the ankle with the rebounder?

yeah, she said she bought it 10-15 years ago. she broke her ankle on it right after she got it. and no, it wasn't a reinjury. she has nooo coordination whatsoever, so i wasn't really surprised when i heard this story, lol.
