Vuly vs Kahuna
This page contains affiliate links and we may earn a commission on purchases.
Vuly and Kahuna are priced very differently. Kahuna is a budget range built to get a full-size trampoline with an enclosure into the backyard for as little as possible. Vuly is a premium range with longer warranties, higher weight ratings and a wider choice of models and accessories.
Warranty is the main difference. Kahuna provides 1-year frame, mat and net warranties. Vuly provides a 3-year frame warranty on the Flare and 10 years on the Ultra 2 Pro, Thunder 2 and Thunder 2 Pro, with 5-year mat warranties across most of the range. The frame is the part you cannot easily replace, so that gap matters more than it looks at the checkout.
The Australian standard is the other difference. Every Vuly model meets the Australian Trampoline Standard AS 4989:2015. No Kahuna model is listed as meeting the standard.
Choose Vuly if you want the longer warranty, a safety design that meets the standard and the option to add accessories later. Choose Kahuna if the budget is set and you want the most trampoline you can get for it.

Quick verdict
Vuly is the more premium range: bigger choice, longer warranties, higher weight ratings and a leaf-spring option that keeps the springs out of the jumping area. Kahuna costs less, and its larger models are rated to the same 150 kg per jumper as Vuly's best. If the standard matters to you, only Vuly qualifies.

Vuly's range is round only, across five model families split between coil springs and the leaf-spring Thunder line. Kahuna's range is round plus one oval, all coil spring. Kahuna's smaller sizes are rated to 80 kg per jumper against 120 kg on the smallest Vuly Ultra 2, so check that row if older kids or adults will use it.
Key differences
- Vuly offers both coil and leaf-spring models; Kahuna uses coil springs.
- Vuly's frame warranty reaches 10 years against 1 year; compare exact models because terms vary by line.
- Both cover round options; Kahuna also comes in oval.
- Vuly reaches a higher top-end price ($2,099 against $899); compare exact models if budget is a factor.
