  • Assemble and use it properly and it is awesome!!!
Followed the directions exactly for setting it up and made sure all the screws and knobs were tight and everything adjusted properly. Works great!!! takes about 30 seconds or so to warm up so if you start it with the balls in the feeder, the first few balls come out limp, but it throws pretty hard on the high-level (and we were using real baseballs). Be careful. Definitely not for professional use but for home use, recreational for kids, it’s great. Be sure to also re-adjust the auto-ball feeder at the proper angle for gravity, depending on how you have the main machine pointing (up for a pop flys or down for ground balls) — adjust and tighten ALL parts each time and there’s no rattling or anything that I read aboutin some other comments. Was a little worried at first based on some reviews, but if you put it together properly and use it properly (especially for the price compared to other really expensive ones) this thing is awesome for kids who use it for fun (and for parents who need a break from consistently being asked to go outside and throw balls all the time). $200 kid-sitter is worth the money 😂😂😂😂 ... show more

  • Great value pitching machine.
This machine works great for batting and fielding practice. Plenty of angle adjustment for pop flies. Definitely need to use the speed balls if you need higher speed pitches ball feeder works good but does sometimes struggle on the last ball since it has no weight behind it to push it into the rotating cam. ... show more

  • Malfunctioning! Motor did not work!
Bought this item as a christmas gift, we opened it and put together as the directions stated. Turned it on and the motor did not work. Reached out to Amazon and was told to communicate with the seller, just for the seller to tell me they do not handle issues with buyers who buy from them off the Amazon website and to communicate with Amazon. We finally were able to ship the item back but we will not be purchasing another from this seller. ... show more

  • Not a pro level product, but does the job for rookie ball
This product is easy to set up and great value for the product you get. At full speed this is loud. The speed works for my set up but don’t expect it to give decent fly balls to outfield. It just doesn’t quite get to that speed. The downside of this is product is that it is not set and forget. I’m constantly adjusting this from pitch to pitch because it drifts. Again, for a 9 yo hitting in backyard , it works great. But at the field it lacks the speed and accuracy needed. ... show more

  • Do NOT use real baseballs!!!
Given the price in comparison to competitors, my expectations were not very high. I bought this machine due to its advertised ability to use regular baseballs as well as the machine's plastic balls. While the machine is usable, I was less than impressed with its capabilities. It takes a while for the machine to warm up. The first two or three pitches are short and inaccurate. After that you can get a reasonably good pitch. It's still a bit variable, similar to a real pitcher, so don't expect every ball to be in the center of the strike zone. I used the lite balls, in addition to real baseballs, to allow for pitching at higher speeds. The light balls can be compared to whiffle balls. The slightest breeze will catch them an you'll end up with a pitch that flies behind the batters back. Because of that, you'll only want to use the lite balls inside or on days with no breeze. Unfortunately, this machine can not handle baseballs as advertised. After a single pitch, the brand new Rawlings seamless baseball specifically designed for pitching machines had two large cuts in the leather. After just three more pitches that ball was destroyed. That makes it cheaper to just run down to the local batting cages and pay to play. Because real balls get destroyed, using this for any sort of fielding practice is out of the question. I would suggest using the slightly cheaper version of this machine that is not rated for real baseballs if you opt to buy a Heater Sports pitching machine. Since you won't want to be using real balls, save your self the money. ... show more

  • This is all you need for a whole range of experience.
Purchased this for my 5 yr old grandson who outgrew teeball 2yrs ago. He has quite good coordination to hit most balls that are pitched to him. This machine is amazing. Of course, we have to put it on the lowest setting, but even that is fast! Setting is 1-10. 1 was fast enough ! Have had it for a month and hes used it countless times. This pitching machine is perfect for beginners to adults. Runs great, balls all land in same area so it's pretty accurate once you get it going. Takes 2 to 3 pitches to get up to full speed, but that's expected. Bought 12 extra balls. Also, we used power cord. Did not buy battery since we have power outlets in our pump houses and barn. Cant comment on if ran by battery. All in all I would reccomend this machine for sure! Especially for the price. ... show more

  • Great for the Money, do not Trust the reviews
I have read several reviews that this machine shakes violently and even one review where the lady said it hit her kid in the head. To the reviews of shakes violently. People need to have a simple comprehension of how things are put together and read instructions. It says clearly to tighten all bolts and put the front of the pitching machine towards the longest third tripod leg, this will stop it from "shaking violently". As for the lady that said it hit her kid in the head, here's a pro tip. Don't be sucking down Busch lights and put the thing two feet away from your kid and aim it directly at his head. It's a great machine for the money, yes it does chew up real baseballs which isn't a big deal to me. Long story short, if you can add 2 plus 2 and love your child. You can put this machine together properly and it won't hit your kid in the head. ... show more

  • Great!
Excellent product. I use it for fielding drills. Great for ground balls, pop flies and line drives. Any fielding drill can be done with it. And obviously great for batting practice. Saves so much time and energy for me as a 14u coach! Super light and easy to use. The hold down pins work well. Keep it in place even at max speed. ... show more
