Disappointing Pitching Machine for Team Sports

This pitching machine was a letdown. As a loyal customer of Sports and Outdoors, I was excited to try it out but found it ineffective for my team's training. As a result of my tests, I determined that the accuracy was off and it was difficult to adjust the speed. The only pro was its compact size for easy storage. Unfortunately, the cons outweighed this one positive aspect. I wouldn't recommend this machine for serious team sports training.

Pros
  • Accurately pitches baseballs to help players improve their hitting skills.
Cons
  • Requires a power source, limiting its use to areas with access to electricity.

Increase your shot accuracy from a young age.

It's the ticket! All of the parents on my son's baseball team say my son is an excellent player. He uses it all the time and it allows me to play while he scores. The only downside is that it only comes with four balls so you have to order more but it has to be a specific type because I tried to order a few and they were too heavy for the car.

Pros
  • 3-ANGLE ADJUSTMENT: The kids pitcher has 3-position angle adjustment, making it easy to meet your throwing needs every time you play.
Cons
  • unreliable

Great value for money

I bought this pitching machine for my boys (5 and 11 years old) to practice in the backyard . There are nuances, but overall this is an excellent buy for the money. My boys can set it up and use it themselves and it's great for timing training. The balls are great for backyard play as they feel hard when hit but won't break windows. Not sure about the top speed, but it's comparable to my oldest son's minor league service.

Pros
  • BATTERY OPERATED: Requires 4 C batteries which are not included
Cons
  • There are defects
