Lifespan Kids vs Oz Trampolines
These two ranges overlap heavily on price, so the choice is usually between a springless mat and one that meets the Australian Trampoline Standard AS 4989:2015.
Lifespan Kids has the springless HyperJump 3, which replaces steel springs with elastic straps, and backs its HyperJump frames for 10 years. Oz Trampolines is coil-sprung throughout, and its Summit Round and Summit Oval models are listed as meeting AS 4989:2015 where most of the Lifespan range is not.
Warranty on the other parts favours Oz, at 2 years on both the mat and the net, against 1 to 2 years on the Lifespan mat and no published net terms. Oz rates its larger models to 150 kg per jumper against 140 kg at the top of the Lifespan range, and offers oval shapes for narrow yards. Lifespan offers a rectangular model.
Choose Lifespan Kids if a springless mat or the 10-year frame warranty is the priority. Choose Oz Trampolines if you want a model that meets the standard and longer warranties on the wear parts.

Quick verdict
Oz Summit models suit a family that wants the standard met and predictable warranties. Choose Lifespan if you want springless without paying Vuly or Springfree prices, keeping in mind that the springless HyperJump 3 is not the model that meets the standard in that range.
