2026-06-11 – A CalmMax 12FT round trampoline sold on Amazon.com was reported to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) after a leg weld failed, causing the trampoline to become unsafe. The incident, filed on May 22, 2026, involves a fall hazard stemming from an apparent manufacturing defect. The report was submitted to the CPSC’s SaferProducts.gov database and resulted in the consumer receiving first aid from a non-medical professional. Product DetailsBrand Name: CalmMax Incident OverviewOn May 22, 2026, a consumer reported to the CPSC that a CalmMax 12FT round trampoline purchased from Amazon.com experienced a catastrophic failure during normal use. According to the incident narrative, the weld on one of the trampoline’s legs came apart and broke, causing the structure to become unstable and unsafe. The consumer noted that the trampoline could no longer be used safely after the incident. The failure occurred without warning, and the consumer received first aid from a non-medical professional following the incident. The report, filed under CPSC Report ID 6059080 on SaferProducts.gov, describes the defect as a manufacturing issue that compromised the trampoline’s structural integrity. No prior issues with the product were mentioned by the reporter. The trampoline was being used as intended at the time of the failure. Safety ConcernsImmediate Dangers: A leg-weld separation causes the trampoline frame to lose support, potentially collapsing while in use. This can result in falls from height, impact with the ground, or contact with broken metal components, leading to cuts, bruises, or more serious injuries. Long-Term Risks: Even if the trampoline appears stable after a partial weld failure, repeated use can stress remaining welds, increasing the likelihood of complete collapse. Rust or metal fatigue may accelerate further deterioration. Who Might Be Affected: Children and adults using the trampoline are at direct risk. Bystanders near the trampoline could also be struck by falling debris or the collapsing frame. Warning Signs: Consumers should watch for visible cracks or gaps at weld points, unusual wobbling or instability, squeaking or grinding noises during use, or any leg that appears misaligned or loose. What Our Clients SayWhat Consumers Should DoStop Using Immediately: Discontinue use of the CalmMax 12FT round trampoline until the weld integrity can be verified. A leg weld failure can lead to sudden collapse. Do Not Attempt Repairs: Do not weld or reinforce the leg yourself. Improper repairs may void any warranty and could create additional safety hazards. Preserve the Product: Keep the trampoline in its current condition, including any broken parts or packaging. This evidence is important for investigations and potential claims. Document the Incident: Take photographs of the failed weld, the leg, and the overall trampoline. Write down the date, time, and circumstances of the failure. Report to the CPSC: File a report on SaferProducts.gov if you experience a similar issue. Reference existing Report ID 6059080 to help regulators identify patterns. Check for Recalls: Visit CPSC.gov and search for CalmMax trampolines to see if any recalls or safety alerts have been issued. Consumers who have suffered injury or property damage as a result of this defect may wish to speak with a product liability attorney to discuss their legal options.
