Used

After researching and reading all the great reviews I decided on this one. Received today and they sent a used one. What was left of the parts to even put it together, was in a ziplock bag. The box was taped together with clear packing tape. Total disappointment.

Quality Control

A few minor issues I had with this Louisville Slugger. This isn’t to discourage anyone from buying this product, it’s just my point of view so maybe they can improve their quality. 1. Air bubbles in the decals, for the money your paying there should be a better quality control for this. Maybe move away from decals and have this stuff lasered onto the metal. Specially on the release arm where you have a small block that rubs the decal. 2. Mounting hardware should be a better quality. Two bolts stripped before even being fully torqued. Had to replace them for some grade 8 bolts. Yes I know it’s over kill but 10 times better than the cheap bolts it came with. 3. The spring is recommended to be replaced every season. There should be a spare sent with each slugger. 4. The spring end that connects to the power pedal is plastic. With the amount of force and tension that part will be under I think they need to upgrade this to a metal part. Your asking for an injury to happen.

Great Price, Good For Pitching, But....

There are better ways to run grounders and fly balls. Not powerful enough for that. For pitching, it works as advertised. It takes a few pitches for the kids to get used to seeing the ball come out. I would recommend the screen as your kid gets older. I wish it pitched a little quicker but you can’t get that without spending over a grand.

Questionable

this maybe okay for baseball I don't know I didn't try baseballs. I bought it for softballs but for softballs don't waste your money on it.

Awesome Pitching Machine

I bought this to use for my 6 year old. He is playing coaches pitch and this throws the perfect pitch every time. I would highly recommend this to anyone. The speed adjustment and pitch location sets up very quickly.
