Contrary to many people's beliefs, it is not the softness of the mat that determines the quality of a rebounder. The softness or firmness of the mat depends on our needs and preferences. Those of us who suffer from back problems will benefit from a soft bouncing, bungee rebounder, whereas those of us who are lucky enough to have a strong back and joints and want to use our rebounder for a dynamic workout, would choose a firmer spring based rebounder. For a smooth and non-jarring rebounding experience, the frame, mat fabric, springs and bungee bands all need to be of the highest specification.
