🏐 Franklin Sports Volleyball and Badminton Set - All-in-One Combo Game Set with Volleyball, Pump, Badminton Rackets, Birdies, Net, and Adjustable Poles - Ideal for Beach or Backyard Fun Review

This was a spare toy for my grandson when I, an old grandmother, awkwardly fell into the table tennis table I had just given him and he had just assembled for Christmas. and tore the thing up. I promised to buy him a better toy and here's what I bought (along with a few select Legos). We had a lot of fun exercising, playing games and inventing some of our own. He loves it, that's all that matters, right?

The only reason I put 2 for assembly was because they didn't send 2 of the 6 bars for assembly! We played 2 times and 1 racquet fell apart (she has a head), these are hollow handle racquets. It's very cheaply made. Contacted the company and they should send 2 more rods. Let's see if they come. I would like to buy a more durable set. Update: 2 weeks later they couldn't ship my stacks which weren't in the box. Or replace clubs that broke after 2 uses! So upset I wasted my money!

Junk. save your money The assembly instructions were not clear but my husband and I were able to figure out how to assemble it using logic. Worked for a good hour. Then, as soon as someone hit it, the pole broke. Poles are cheap and not durable at all. They are not very stable in the ground. Terrible quality. I saw it got mixed reviews before I bought it but honestly I didn't want to spend a lot of money and all the highly rated sets I found were expensive. I'm just looking for a cheap set for…

Very cheap assembly. The net itself is not very wide and the poles are short. We will replace the poles. When we opened it, there was already a trace on the net and I can tell you it won't be long. Both birds were bent, so we bought new ones too. The ball in it is much smaller than a regular volleyball, so we need to buy a new one. It has plenty of lines for attaching poles, which is nice. The racquets are good and will all do their job for a while but if we had older kids they would be very…

Poor quality and materials. The net on the volleyball court should be eight to eight feet high. The supplied plastic poles are not long enough even after installing in the ground. The frames are flimsy, the ball cheap, the badminton birds are flattened in the packaging. Franklin is usually of much better quality. I actually bought a second Franklin ball from Wally World for $5 and it's much better quality. We bought this as a backyard BBQ game and will probably rarely use it. But for me it's a…

Well I've been trying to use this for backyard volleyball but there's no way to connect 3 pieces of support posts together! The top white piece fits on the blue B-pillar, but the bottom white spiked post is the same size as the blue B-pillar and it's just not possible to fit the two pieces together. I was able to do this by using a roughly sized dowel rod and applying some 3M HD shipping tape to the dowel rod to ensure it was secure and the two plastic posts felt secure. But when assembled, the
