Review on Franklin Sports Pop Up Baseball Net - Portable Hitting + Pitching Net for Baseball + Teeball - Backyard Soft Toss + Practice Net for Kids - All Sport Youth Net by Darryl Jennings

Revainrating 5 out of 5

PERFECT for adults and teens

After finally getting everything together my son works GREAT to shoot the ball out of the T without taking the windows out. The bad part was trying to put it together. The clever design is that the poles are held together by an elastic cord, which should make assembly easier. Maybe it was me. I do not know. but. it was PIA to put the pole through both ends of the net. The next difficulty, maybe it was me again, was attaching the two poles at a 90 degree angle to the post holder. to the point where he "possessed" me (slipped out of my hand) in a very tender spot. There is an additional 12" pole that I think can be added after the net is assembled and tensioned. but I haven't seen that yet, I haven't put on a long black velcro strap that goes from corner to corner. seems to go without too. If you must travel with this net, you must be able to add and remove poles with a 90 degree head every time. Pro - PERFECT for the garden where there are only windows. I've tried this (47 yr old, 6'4", 280) and my son (6.5 yr old, 50" tall) and it works GREAT for all levels (adults and teens). Inserts are easy to use and REQUIRED. nice windy day minus - put on a cup when assembling and be patient, a second person can help with feeding.
