This is the email I received back from Bravo Sports who manufactures the trampoline "There is a different chemical in the fabric that is why there was a warning label on it. The only way the chemicals can be any harm to you is if you eat the fabric. There is no other way you or your family will be affected by the chemicals. If you have any other questions please feel free to email me back or call our toll free number at 1-800-248-5327 and speak to anyone of our available agents."

Okay, so I've seen posts where everyone is saying Californians are way too crazy about everything causing cancer. It just sucks when your buying something for your health and you feel good about it, then you open it up and it says it just might give you cancer. lol - not funny good.

We ordered an Airzone trampoline with the same warning...I wasn't able to get much information from the manufacturer, such as the specific chemical, which really frustrated me because it was a gift for my children, not to mention I am pregnant. However, after researching different manufacturers, we found they all have the same warning...so choosing another product wasn't an option. We read several commentaries, and specifics on the "proposition 65 warning"...the conclusion we came to is that it is most likely not dangerous unless you are ingesting it. We decided to set it up, and instruct our children not to eat it. ;) We ordered an Airzone trampoline with the same warning...I wasn't able to get much information from the manufacturer, such as the specific chemical, which really frustrated me because it was a gift for my children, not to mention I am pregnant.

I just bought a golds gym trampoline from walmart and assembled it before reading the instructions and saw that scary warning label. I wish I had seen it before purchase. Why would they even use a cancer causing chemical. My kid say's it's probably only dangerous if you eat it, but what about asbestos? Ye

Mine were not labeled with a sticker. I do not live in California. First thing I did was to wax mine when they were assembled. I would suspect that a person could paint them with a clear acrylic coating if there was concern about the finish. This is what I found on the subject: What Is Proposition 65? In 1986, California voters approved an initiative to address their growing concerns about exposure to toxic chemicals. That initiative became the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, better known by its original name of Proposition 65. Proposition 65 requires the State to publish a list of chemicals known to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. This list, which must be updated at least once a year, has grown to include approximately 800 chemicals since it was first published in 1987. http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65/background/p65plain.html

Hi Anthony, The bottle I have doesn't have the prop 65 warning on it. I e-mailed the company that makes sonne's #7 to get you the correct answer to this question. I will have the answer to you tomorrow since their company is closed today. Thank you, Sandy

Prop 65 -is not a standard, Unlike FDA and does not set a limit or standard no matter how small- It is A WARNING for people that some metal exists in the product.

I don't have the original box anymore, but there is nothing on the gate itself or the instruction manual regarding prop 65. LOVE this gate.

Haha kinda a funny story. I thought because of picture it was the trampoline until I got it and waited fur snow to melt in Tahoe and realized it's only the enclosure. Ugh. Still have no trampoline and enclosure is still in the box.

There is no mention of lead or any other content on the product. There is no CA Prop 65 label...only one that says it was made in Mexico.

Because California likes to slap warnings on just about everything. This teether is made from food grade silicone which is not a carcinogen. I have no idea how it would have come by the warning, but I'm not terribly concerned about it. Sometimes it feels like EVERYTHING causes cancer, and silicone is nowhere near the top of the list of my concerns. But hey, way to take a feature used to gain information about a product and turn it into a BS sanctimommy judgement. Kudos. Edit: maybe a better question would be WHY does this product have a prop 65 warning attached. That's actually a useful product question, and I'd be interested in the answer. :-p

The label has california prop 65 warning.. Says there is lead in this product. -- I just looked at the pictures here on amazon.

Sorry, I returned the product. It does look sturdy though and was well packed. Looked like a good buy. I wasn't comfortable about the California Disclaimer. That should have been noted on the site.

Unfortunately I don't have an answer for you. I disposed of it years ago when we setup the trampoline.

In Arizona, I have the skywalker 14' camouflage trampoline on a gravel landscape but dug 1/2 inch ground and it is very sturdy. My adult son, me and the installer has jumped on it continuously with absolutely no movement inconsistency.

Some of mattel's products come with or without the Prop 95 warning which states the product may have toxic chemicals in it. It was not labeled on the page like some other mattel products on Amazon. Best would be to email the company for an answer which they have to provide you with. But then again, its coming from China so who the hell knows if that is even the truth. If you are concerned about this or other items there is a lead testing kit that easily detects the presence of lead on clothes or toys.

I emailed NutriCology and they sent me the information on CA Prop 65. This was very helpful in understanding about the naturally occuring lead and other metals. Feel Free to Contact them.

I cancelled my order after reading the Prop 65 warning and today I just saw this update. Thanks for the update. If Amazon is in error they should go ahead and remove the warning. Its confusing the customers.
