Review on Rukket Rebounder Adjustable Pitchback PurePower by Brian Cooper

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Durable: Baseball

If you're lucky enough to be reading this when looking to buy your first baseball reflector, you're probably, like me, on your second or third piece of junk. Rust or a net tear ended the careers of my rebounders Franklin and Rawlings in less than a year. It definitely has the weight, hardware and powder coating to last. It is suitable for the most difficult youth and adult throwers and players. There are no wing nuts here, just solid stainless steel hardware and heavy-duty spring-loaded hinges for adjusting the rebound angle. My only complaint is the difficulty in getting the bungee over the net. The mesh is designed to be very tight so the bungee is snug when you finally attach it. I've found that instead of pulling back to the net and then going back and setting them up one at a time as instructed, I've found that I bungee on more loosely than directed and clip them in behind you. Once in place, rebound is excellent. One little thing I noticed as a quality feature compared to cheaper models is that the target area is applied to the mesh and sewn. For the smaller models, thread the tape and tie it where it will stay securely in place for about a week before tearing. Yes, this is one of the most expensive rebounders available, but in the long run it will be a lot cheaper than buying $40-50 units every year.
