Is this really feasible to store folded and take out for the kids to use? Or is that too much of a hassle? I really don't have space to keep it out.

It is possible to fold and store, but it does take a little time. I put ours under my granddaughter's crib with the handle sticking out over the side

No. You would have to take off the handle and the legs. I think they named it fold and go because when it arrives, you unfold it until it locks into place, then assemble the handle and legs. Other mini trampolines required you to do a bunch of weird stuff to just assemble the trampoline part. We do not have a playroom, so this was in our great room all the time until Christmas (and new toys came) and now it's in the garage. :-(

I have folded up our trampoline once and will never do it again. It's scary! The use our kids get out of it is with the space it takes up though.

You can take the base off and extensions, and the piece that hangs over top comes off as well very easily but it doesn't fold you have to actually detach the pieces... Then it will store easier ours went through two kids and is very durable and easy to clean.

I used a regular case, which is too big. So I just fold the excess and make do with it. My kid does not seem to mind the not-so-perfect fit.

No not really, it does store away better than a play yard. We have kept ours up the entire time it was used, there are probably better items if you are looking for portable. It would be the equivalent of taking another large suitcase

It is a strollet for outside mostly, and it does take up space. I think having a smaller more compact one for stores may be a smart idea.

I have not tried to do that, although the instructions said it should be fairly "easy" to fold it up. Not convinced it's all that easy. Sorry I can't be of more help. Don't the instructions give any info?

I think it would be a hassle to fold and store every day...being that I use it everyday, we don't mind having it at the very side of the room. It is very low profile, and the footprint is only 18"-24" wide...so it doesn't stick out. We ordered the black one, so that it is less obtrusive. I hope that helps...feel free to ask any other questions. I ordered mine in May and use it nearly daily. I have several pieces of exercise equipment...and this is by far my favorite to use. The only piece in the living room.

I bought a stroller organizer for mine and it's flexible so it bends when I fold the stroller so it works well. There's baskets underneath the stroller and pouches on the back so there's plenty of storage. Here's the organizer I bought. http://m.toysrus.com/skava/static/product.html?type=TRU_product_us&url;=%2Fproduct%2Findex.jsp%3FproductId%3D18171256%26cp%3D2255957.2273443.2256189.3225200.3225205%26parentPage%3Dfamily&domain;=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.toysrus.com

You have to make sure the air is out of it and it will fold down to store. Easier with two people

well, i don't know if you could store it folded up. but maybe laid out flat? it's really comfy. like a real bed.

to collapse it for storage, you pretty much have to take it apart but it goes together and comes apart in just a few simple steps. I did it myself in a couple minutes.

Yes, that's how I store mine. Probably wouldn't suggest kids to climb all over it though : )

I think it might be too big. Check the dimensions. We keep ours stored open in a storage unit.

In my opinion, it does fold easily and quickly. It takes doing it a few times to get the hang of it. You may wish to leave the storage basket off as it is an extra thing to deal with before folding it.

I wouldn't recommend it. This has a snap shut mechanism and I've struggled with it while trying to open & close it. Once it's open it holds a lot of weight (a fully loaded full size cooler), but I would do everything to encourage a toddler with delicate fingers and toes to stay away from this. I could see a serious injury if a child got curious about this when not in use. You would also only be able to use straps around the back of the unit to secure it as straps that go under the base would have wear as well as create upward force on the panel that folds up when not in use. I've never seen a child in a car seat on a cart like this and I feel confident that the manufacturer would not recommend it. I'm not sure, but the child's hands may even be able to get caught in the wheels while in transit. I just googled "cart for car seat and child" and child friendly options came up for similar items where the wheels are no where near the child's hands and the cart still collapses for easy storage. Good luck! I would not recommend this for the purpose of transporting children, but I would strongly recommend it for the purpose of transporting luggage or other bottom heavy items with a square back... it does a wonderful job for that.

It folds relatively well, but it is rather bulky and hard to handle. It's definitely easier to fold with two people. I don't usually fold it, but if you were going to be storing it folded and only taking it out from time to time instead of sleeping on it every night, folding it probably wouldn't be too big of a hassle.

Not really, no. You could fold it up to be flat, I guess--but the little trays would still stick it out, so I don't know that it would actually save any space!
