What matters most
Both share the same warranty backbone: a 10-year frame, 5 years on the mat and springs, and 2 on the pads. The ACON X 17ft is about $3,999 and comes only as a large rectangle; ACON publishes no single-user limit, but recommends a limit of 300 lb. North's Legend models run about $2,050 to $3,150 and let you choose round, oval, or rectangle, which is the main advantage if your yard or use case is not a fit for a single big rectangle. Decide whether you need that exact flagship rectangle or want the shape flexibility North offers.
