We set this up in the finished basement with a catch net behind the machine. Our 12- 16 year old boys use a hard plastic or mini bat with it( the red metal SKLZ bat marks up the walls& carpet!) It is harder than it looks, when you set it up 10- 15 feet away, the ball comes in really fast. They and their friends have a great time with it! Buy the machine& extra balls, skip the SKLZ bats!

I 've bought several machines for my son over the past 4 years. Some were expensive$ 700 to this SKLZ$ 60 one. I love this machine because it makes him react quickly to a very small ball. We use the quick stick to hit with which is only 12 oz., with a diameter of maybe an inch or inch and a half or so. I think it improves hand eye corodination because the ball and bat are smaller. I do n't back up the machine to 30 ft. I put it about 10- 15 feet away from him and the balls come at him faster. He gets so pumped when he gets a hit. Another advantage is we are able to use this in our house in a large room. You could also use in a garage or outside. My advice would be to buy the extra bucket of balls because they fly all over and you can lose them easier. The machine does take a minute to turn on etc., and is n't the most accurate, but kids need balls flying in different spots. I think it is a great training aide for all ages and it is fun. Not bad for the price if you ask me.

I have tried just about every machine ever made over the last 27 years of coaching Little League, Travel Ball and Ripken youth teams, baseball and softball. Without a doubt, for players 12 and under, this machine is by far the best machine for the price. Accuracy, consistency, and `` drop off the back of my pickup at 40 miles per hour '' tough, for$ 600 this machine is amazing.

I was skeptical at first. Machines like this usually sell for twice as much. I even called Jugs to get more info before I bought one. Its the real deal. Throws up to 50 mph and is incredibly accurate and stable( made of metal, not plastic). Great product.

This is exactly what it says it is. Perfect pitching machine for the smaller golf ball sized balls. My son and I hit wiffle golf balls before every game to get hes eyes on the ball. This machine is perfect for that, indoor or out door. I live in the Cleveland area so its pretty windy and this pitches through it no problem. I enjoy hitting off it as well. The balls have a true flight to them also, you can really hit them far. As accuracy goes its really like any other pitching machine you have to dial it in and it will occasionally throw some bad ones. Which I think is fine, you dont get perfect pitches when you step in the box.

My 10- year- old can set this up himself! Very easy to set up/take down. This pitching machine really helped my son over the last 2 years with his hitting ability. This past season he struck out once with 22 at bats. The `` small ball '' helps your child track the ball all the way in. The downsides are machine only comes with 3 balls so make sure you buy extras. Also product says it has a number of settings but I truly do not see much if any difference between speeds/settings.

My Granddaughter got her first honest home run in10 and under fast pitch softball soon after her first batting practice using the machine. The machine is solidly built and works great. It is very accurate within the strike zone but does not throw to the same spot twice..

Bobby
Performs as advertised with the Lite Flite balls and accomplishes what we wanted at a bargain price. This machine is a quality product, well engineered for quick assembly and breakdown, solid construction with powder coated finish. Only drawback is that it's not effective for defensive play either directly from the machine or from batting practice as the balls are too light to simulate real baseballs.
5
Pops44
This machine is amazing what it does for what it costs. It throws every pitch, lefty or righty, every pitch a strike. I love the Liteflite balls. My kids love hitting them, and they have learned how to stay with the curveball since they know the balls wo n't hurt. Ball- in- the- dirt drills and other defensive drills are easy and effective to do. This machine really does do it all....... and it's portable, too.

CoachAlan64
We bough this machine a few years ago for my son when he was in little league. It helped him greatly with his swing. Since I have a bad elbow that prevents me from throwing accurately& could n't help him practice, we were able to use this for not only his hitting practice, but you can easily adjust it& use it for fielding pop- ups& grounders as well.( Great for pop- ups!) I used to film his swings& we could see it together& work on his mechanics. It tends to bog down a little in speed after a few dozen balls go through it but just give it more time# an extra couple of seconds) between balls. My only real complaint is that we went to use it after a few seasons& the motor quit working. At the time Dick's was n't carrying them in their stores anymore or I would have replaced it with another. Instead we bought another brand that is no way near as accurate or consistent as this machine was. I think that's what I liked the most about this machine. You could get it set up& it would be real consistent. Find the strike zone& you were good!

Heater over delivered on the Heater Pro Curveball Pitching Machine, it's the single best single wheel real baseball pitching machine I have ever seen. Before delivery I was somewhat skeptical but I was impressed immediately with the construction and the easy of assembly, I fired the first ball out my front door 15 minutes after it was delivered. I will say this, speed 10, 50 MPH at 46- 50 feet is going to overpower most kids under 12, it seems more like a mid 80's pitch from that range so if you have a small cage 50 foot or smaller this is your ideal machine as the kids wo n't outgrow it for a few years. I 've shown this to several coaches and they all said the same that it throws much harder than what it advertises. Great machine and the price is fantastic.

Purchased this as a Xmas gift for my kids that play both little league softball and baseball.

I ’ ve been using this machine for 2 weeks now and it ’s working out great. The pitches are all strikes but not exactly the same place so it ’s not too easy. It ’s a bit of work to switch the legs back and forth from the baseball to softball ones so you pretty need to do one or the other in one session. My daughter feels like the low profile legs give her pretty realistic look at how pitches come at her on the games which is a huge plus compared to having hit her off the baseball machines. It was a bit pricey being$ 500 over the machine that throws 60 mph( this one is 70) so I hope my kids are still using it when they face that velocity. I would recommend product!

These balls are nice quality. They are solid with a slight squishy feeling. When used in the heater pitching machine they come out slower because of their weight. If they get wet or damp they are even slower through the machine. My not have enough velocity to make it farther than 10 feet when wet.( wet because the grass is damp) When dry they can go far enough to simulate a pitcher. Not perfectly but enough for back yard practice.

A neighbor and good acquaintance of mine who plays for the St. Louis Cardinals bought one of these new Changeup machines. He told me it was the most effective machine he has ever used so I bought one for my sons. It is amazing how it throws change ups with a push of a button on a remote just like your car. You ca n't tell it is slowing down or speeding up. It is just like hitting against a pitcher in a game. The speed changes immediately in between pitches. Best money I ever spent to improve my kids hitting.
5
55Baseballdad
Just used it for the first time with my high school son. I was skeptical that the Changeup would somehow be telegraphed to the hitter. I thought for sure you could see the wheel slow down. I was wrong. I thought for sure you would be able to hear the motor slow down. I was wrong again. Finally, I figured the machine would take too long to adjust from Fastball to Changeup. Wrong for the third time. Hitting off this machine is just like being at bat in a game. When I played in high school and college, batting practice off machines became almost automatic. You knew the type of pitch, the speed and the general location before the next ball was pitched. This machine changes everything. My son will be able to learn to keep his bat back and not let it drift forward on off- speed pitches. If you are a serious coach or have serious ball players in your family, this machine is a must!

This machine is for real. A coach friend of mine in California saw it at a tournament last summer and called me about it. He told me, `` You have got to get this machine for your travel team. '' I have been using it the last two weeks with my girls. It is just like hitting in a game. I push the button on the remote and it throws a perfect changeup. I push the button again and it throws a fastball/riser with no delay between pitches. The machine gives nothing away to alert the hitter which pitch is coming. I am already seeing improvements in my hitter's swing mechanics. If you coach fastpitch or have daughters that are serious players, this machine is a dream come true for teaching hitting.

When selecting a battery pitching machine, consider features such as pitch speed variability, pitch type options, and the machine's portability. Look for models that offer adjustable angles for different types of pitches, as well as battery life to ensure extended use during practice sessions. Additionally, ease of setup and transport can enhance your overall experience.
Battery pitching machines offer the advantage of portability and convenience, allowing you to practice anywhere without needing a power source. They are typically lighter and easier to transport, making them ideal for outdoor use or travel. However, electric models may provide more consistent power and faster pitch speeds, so consider your specific needs when choosing between the two.
Battery pitching machines are primarily designed for baseball and softball training, making them ideal for players looking to improve their hitting skills. They can simulate various pitch types, helping athletes practice against fastballs, curveballs, and more. Additionally, these machines can be used for team practices or individual training sessions, enhancing overall performance.
The battery life of a pitching machine can vary based on the model and usage conditions, but many machines are designed to provide several hours of continuous use on a full charge. It's important to check the specifications of the machine to understand its battery capacity and performance. Regular maintenance and proper charging practices can also help extend the lifespan of the battery.
Yes, battery pitching machines are suitable for players of all skill levels, from beginners to advanced athletes. Many machines offer adjustable settings that allow users to customize pitch speed and type, making them versatile training tools. This adaptability helps players develop their hitting skills at their own pace, regardless of their experience.
