Mark Fitzgerald: Awesome toy for a good price. All 3 balls collapsed within 10 mins of playing. Just got some whiffle balls instead and still going strong months later

D. Lynn: Mixed reviews here. I suspect misassembly is the problem. There are NO assembly instructions included. So here they are: On the base unit are three yellow hinged pieces. They must be opened straight up!!! Unit will not work otherwise. A sticker tells you this. After opening the yellow hinged pieces, take the red connector. Again, look carefully: There is an arrow molded into the blue base and an arrow molded into the red connector. Align the arrows, pop the red piece into the base. There should be no movement now, a solid connection. Now take the two red feed basket halves, align all the little nubs and points and snap together. The feed basket has two slots to push in to the red connector and then a slight turn to lock in place. Make sure the slots are correct and not bent sideways. Done.
To use, the problem most people seem to have is that they think it is foot powered like a stomp rocket. NO! It is a simple trigger. Forceful jumping will NOT make it work. Simply press down until you hear a click, release and the whirring of the mechanism starts. A few seconds later, the ball will pop up. Beautiful! This is a Great toy to practice hitting or just catching the ball.

Binh Vu: I did not see the indication at the bottom so I did not put the prongs in vertical position, then wonder why it does not pop up. It’s my mistake. The box is damage at the corner but nothing wrong with the toy. I wanted to return. I keep it because my son loves it.

Jose FJose F: The media could not be loaded. Está muy divertido al principio no podíamos hacer que funcionará y se trababa pero era por que no habíamos puesto en vertical los palitos amarillos después de eso todo bien! Excelente producto divertido para niños y adultos, creo que la mayoría de las reseñas negativas de que no funciona es por que no ponen los palitos amarillos en vertical y es que no trae instructivo solo la foto de abajo que les puse

Caitlin Armstrong: this toy is great and everyone who has tried it has been very happy to do so. Hopefully we wont lose the bat and balls...
The balls and bat are fairly light so we have been playing inside due to freezing temperatures outside and nothing has been broken so that's a plus too!

Leslie: The kids enjoy it. My issue is the relative lack of sturdiness for the high price. I thought that going with a well known brand would equate to better quality
