BERG Champion InGround vs BERG Favorit InGround
One of the most common questions customers ask when comparing BERG trampolines is whether the BERG Champion InGround is worth the extra cost over the BERG Favorit InGround.
Both trampolines are designed for long-term outdoor family use and share BERG’s reputation for durability, spare parts availability and strong galvanised steel frame construction. However, there are several important upgrades that separate the Champion from the Favorit.
For many families, the decision comes down to whether the improved bounce performance, upgraded padding and longer warranty justify the additional investment.
What Do Both Trampolines Have in Common?
Both the BERG Favorit InGround and BERG Champion InGround are designed for long-term outdoor family use and are available in a range of sizes and shapes.
Both ranges feature:
- Galvanised steel frame construction
- BERG AirFlow jump mats
- UV-resistant materials
- InGround installation design
- BERG safety padding
- Long-term spare parts support
Families choosing either trampoline benefit from BERG’s reputation for quality, durability and replacement part availability.
More Springs for a Smoother Bounce
One of the biggest upgrades found on the BERG Champion range is the spring system.
The BERG Favorit uses BERG SoloSpring springs, providing a comfortable and reliable bounce suitable for everyday family use.
The BERG Champion uses BERG TwinSpring technology with a higher spring count. The springs are mounted at an angle, allowing more springs to fit around the jumping area.
Combined with the AirFlow Pro jump mat, the increased spring count helps create a smoother and more responsive jumping experience.
Both trampolines are suitable for family use, but the Champion is designed to deliver enhanced jumping performance while maintaining the same focus on safety and durability.
AirFlow vs AirFlow Pro
Both the BERG Favorit and BERG Champion benefit from BERG AirFlow technology, which allows more air to pass through the jumping surface compared to a traditional trampoline mat.
The Champion range goes a step further with AirFlow Pro. This premium jump mat uses an advanced weave structure that allows even greater airflow through the jumping surface, helping reduce resistance and improve jumping comfort.
While both trampolines provide excellent jumping performance, AirFlow Pro is one of the upgrades that helps position the Champion range above the Favorit.
Thicker Protective Padding
Another noticeable difference between the two trampolines is the protective edge padding.
The BERG Favorit uses protective padding with a thickness of 10mm on the inner section and 20mm on the outer section.
The BERG Champion upgrades this to 30mm comfort foam padding, providing a thicker protective layer around the frame and springs.
The additional padding contributes to the Champion's more premium specification and is designed to provide enhanced durability for long-term family use.
Longer Frame Warranty
The BERG Champion also benefits from a longer frame warranty.
After registration:
- BERG Favorit frame warranty: up to 8 years
- BERG Champion frame warranty: up to 13 years
The longer warranty reflects the more premium positioning of the Champion range and provides additional peace of mind for families investing in a trampoline designed for years of outdoor use.
Champion Is Also Available as FlatGround
Another important difference is that BERG FlatGround trampolines are available within the Champion range but not within the Favorit range.
As covered in our BERG FlatGround vs InGround guide, FlatGround trampolines sit level with the lawn surface and use a heavier box-frame construction.
This gives Champion buyers the option of choosing either an InGround or FlatGround installation style depending on their garden layout and personal preference.
