These smaller trampolines are ideal for small spaces as they have a very small footprint and can be manoeuvred through garden alleyways and through houses to you back garden a lot easier than a larger trampoline. The small trampolines do not allow so much social interaction though since few people can use the same trampoline in a safe manner, but the smaller trampolines offer many benefits regardless of the size, the same health benefits and attractiveness is the same with any size.
If you have a massive garden then you can look at buying a much larger trampoline such as one of the many 14ft trampolines available from many of the retailers around the world.
