This is a great product. It is aggravating at first but once you get the concept, it works. Bought this for my 8 year old son and he enjoys it.

5 Cval
Teaches you proper batting technique and teaches you not to cast

5 Izulow
My son started casting his arms out when batting and he would swear he was not. Even showed him video on how bad it was. At first he hated using the swing rail and said it did not work. Then good old father puts it on and starts nailing the ball with no issues. He then started giving it a try going slow still he found a rhythm that worked for him. Eventually after a week he was nailing line drives out to the fence and his bat speed increased 22 mph.

5 sarapollo
I got this ball a few weeks ago with the hopes it would help my 6 year old be less afraid of the ball as she works on learning to play catch. She absolutely loves this ball. We play catch( even inside now that it ’s super cold and snowy) with no worries about getting hurt or fear of the ball that she got from a regular softball. Tennis balls were a nice thing for a while but the fact that this is the right size and weight really helps her get a good feel in her glove for the ball and what to expect when catching the ball she will be using in spring. As she ’s built up her confidence catching the ball we have swapped in a regulation 11 ” here and there and she ’s so happy she can catch and throw it just the same. Absolutely recommend this ball for littles learning to catch or with fear of the ball.

I play competitive senor softball, I elevated the machine in my garage on a bureau, anchoring with bath towels to help stop the vibration, as well as with dumbell weights to anchor it a little more, soft toss now has a little height for slow pitch softball pitch simulation, and I hit it into a net. Great

5 Chris44
Bought one for my 14 year old son and 12 year old daughter. Together they used it over 60 hours in the last 5 months. Have had no problems. Battery holds a charge as advertised. I am 5' 9 '' and the toss is just above belt high. I my opinion just right. Both my kids had great success at the plate this summer and I give the toss machine a lot of the credit.

I love the machine. It helps me with my batting all the time. I 'm definitely going to buy a few more!

5 vancemj
My husband, who coaches baseball, hit these in the yard to try them out. The ball seemed durable and while it traveled a nice distance, it didn ’ t go so far that we had to keep running across the yard to get it. The color is perfect because it makes it easier to see. He is looking forward to trying these out with his team.

5 Shoogie417
Here in NY it ’s winter and freezing so definitely not the time for outdoor sports. I decided to give these balls to my lab. We throw and play fetch every time we go out and he loves them. They also allow him to pant when he walks because of the hole in them. I ’ m sure they are great for the sport they are intended for but they are also great for dogs. They are durable and easy to throw because of the light weight. They also don ’ t seem like they would do much damage if using them inside. The price point is spot on and I would definitely buy them again.

5 Terry
These balls were very durable and a great training tool. My kids used them consistently during training sessions and they kept there shape and form throughout. I would recommend these balls to anyone.

5 Batdad
These balls work great. The balls are a rubberized ball but look like a whiffle ball. They feel like a solid ball when hit, but don ’ t fly a long distance! The design is great to keep it in the yard and not flying into the neighbors yards.

These balls are great for working on hitting indoors when you have to worry about your surroundings. We have used these for short hop drills and glove work. You can even use them on the road in the hotel to work in hand eye coordination. Great ball all around!

5 Bschwog
The balls are so perfect to get ready for softball. Been using them for a couple weeks and they have held up well. Thanks for the opportunity of trying these out. I think the price is fair and I recommend them to my friends after they borrowed a few.

5 Coach Chris
I got these practice balls to get some work during the off- season. We have been able to work on my daughter's swing so she can hit the ground running once it warms up. Very durable as they have yet to show any wear and tear after a few weeks of swings.

5 OutdoorMama#4
These lightweight softball trainers are perfect for practicing your hit- and even work great for youngsters afraid of being hit by the ball while becoming acclimated to the sport. The lightweight material makes for ease in tossing and hitting, and the red and white coloring help in locating balls after practice. The black mesh bag is extremely convenient to store and carry. These balls will definitely see lots of use- and plan to purchase more in the future!

Purchased for my tee- baller to practice in the backyard. They can fly pretty far if I swing on them, but he keeps them in the yard while still getting a full swing. They bounce back into shape every hit, every time. If you don ’ t have a large field to practice on, these are very helpful.

5 CTG77
I officiate ice hockey, and at 50 years old, that means I have sore muscles pretty much all the time from keeping up with high school aged kids. They seem to like to run into me, which is usually fine since I 'm 6' 4 ''/ 225 and a good skater, but I am sure I feel the contact a lot more the next day than they do, even if they hit the ice hard and I stayed on my skates. This ball is a great size to put in my ref bag to take to the rink or use while relaxing on the couch like a softer version of a foam roller. Since I normally dislike foam rollers because they 're too hard, this being softer is a big win for me. I have also started using it as part of light body- weight/ stretching exercises to help with mobility for hockey and golf. All in all, it's been a very good find.

5 Chickgarza
The kids seem to like this teaining tool. They like the size compared to the big red ball we have here at home. They said it has good weight for resistance while hitting and shows good feed back. O wr all great tool

Great flexible batting tee. Height adjustable to a wide range of swing paths. Rubberized material seems high quality and should last even in long periods of sun and rain. Base is weighted and sturdy with no risk on toppling. Overall a must have for swing training and timing.

5 Amanda W
This Multi- Postion Batting Tee was so easy to put together. It is also easy to change positions using the sliding option. It is super easy for a child to change positions as well. The quality of this Tee is amazing. Its made of heavy duty plastic and rubber. It breaks down into 3 pieces for easy storage and easy traveling if needed. It allows a person to practice by themselves without needing another person.

5 Burndy82
I chose this tee for my daughter because it looked pretty sturdy. This is SO much better than the last one we had. It does n't wobble, and holds the ball steady. The tracks to reposition it are really cool too. This tee is made even better than I was expecting it to be. I would definitely recommend this for batting practice.

5 Keeper412
Wow. Let me say, I was looking for a softball preseason training aid. I 'm in a senior league that plays only during the summer. Therefore, any nice winter/early spring days I 'd like to break the rust off my swing. But nice days in Pittsburgh during the months of January/February are few and far between. And getting someone to pitch to me is even harder. Thus the need for a full batting tee. Lets start by saying this Marucci product is well made and very easy to put together. When assembled the tee weighs about 10 pounds. The home plate base is designed with an cut out so you can easily transport with a grip of one hand. Assembly, is 3 pieces and takes about 2 mins. The interesting part is the base has a grove in which you can slide the stand to multiple places and with a simple twist, the tee locks in place. If you want to move it a bit inside/outside just a simple reverse twist and slide it along the `` path '' to your intended spot and twist to lock. As for adjusting the height, its a bit stiff but I added just a bit of WD- 40 and the problem was resolved. So, for durability, the stand only toppled over 1x, and that was after hitting 75+ softballs and a few baseballs mixed in and NO balls fell off the tee. As for performance, you would think I was in mid- season form. I found the sweet spot multiple times and launched several over the fence 235+ feet away. Overall, I give this product 5 stars for ease of use and performance.

This is a high quality!! This thing will last for years and years. It ’s made with high quality materials and is very solid. Easy to put together and one of the best T ’s I ’ ve ever owned. I coach T- ball and love this T.

This weight stays on very well. My only knock on it is how difficult it is to get on certain bats because of the knobs on certain bats. I typically leave it on just one bat, because it is to cumbersome to be taking off and on. I would not use this in a similar fashion to a donut.

I 've used the baseball sized ones and the softball sized ones so I thought I would try the tiny golfball sized ones. They are soft any wo n't damage a window or something like that, but holy moly they fly farther than the bigger balls. And combined with their tiny size you will want to make sure you have enough space so you do n't lose they or hurt anyone, they do sting if you get hit.
