Needs Better Bands

Needs better bands. Must provide your own bracing.

Item Broke And We Were Not Given A New One!’

Ours broke and Dicks refused to return it. We are not happy with the customer service we received when asked to have it replaced.

Great Purchase!

Bought a few weeks ago. Really helpful as I have no one to pitch to my son. So effective that my son is a switch hitter!

Great Piece Of Equipment

We bought this for our son to get some work in at times when he doesn’t have a pitcher. He used it everyday!

Band Broke No Replacement Bands Available Anywhere

Was purchased for my son for his birthday, after two uses the yellow band snapped. The replacement bands are out of stock everywhere. You can’t use the product without bands.

Junk

Band broke within the first hour of swings from a 12 yr old and apparently replacement bands are not available. Don't waste your money on this one.

So Far, Great!

We purchased this about three weeks ago. So far it's been great. My son loves using it. I need to help him move it and set it up due to weight and a little awkward switching the resistance bands. It's also a little on the expensive side. But all in all l, we are very happy with it and my son uses it daily. I would recommend!

Sklz Hurricane Is Terrible

Bought just 12 days ago and the yellow band has broke already. My 9 yr old was using it and snap it’s done.. What a load of crap that is!! Do not buy this product, not even close to being worth the money..

Solid Equipment..

Takes a few swings to get use to but if your swinging properly it works as it should

Stay Away From This Product!

We bought this for our 8 and 6 year old boys. The stick broke and SKLZ, the manufacturer says that they don’t cover broken pieces for usage. I assumed this thing is used to be hit with a bat and therefore the price. But when the piece can’t resist a 6 year old hitting it, less than 8 months and sporadic usage, and then the manufacturer says that the 1 year warranty doesn’t cover it? You got to stay away from. Bad product, from a bad company. Dicks should sell better products than these.

Great For Practice

Bought this for my son as a Christmas present and he LOVES it! If it isn’t too cold out he’s outside practicing. This project is definitely worth.

Biggest Piece Of Junk Ever

So I purchased this for my kids the day before Easter. Struggled to get it in the cart & up to the counter & of course it was more expensive than I expected because having price tags for anything is apparently too difficult. I still bought it & struggled to get it home & inside. Gave it to the kids for Easter, struggled to get it back outside for them, but they were excited so whatever. I can’t remember if I put it together immediately or not but whenever I did put it together you could clearly tell that it was used & slightly damaged. The nerve of Dick’s to resell a used product at full price. Especially something that is that expensive, something that has visible wear & something that is a piece of junk to top it off! I emailed them to see if they would make it right. I didn’t want to struggle with it again to take it back but I wanted some of my money back! I pretty much a “sorry about your luck email, you can return it if you want.” Dicks obviously knows their customer base very well to tell busy, working parents to “just bring it back” during baseball season like it’s not a complete inconvenience when they scammed me in the first place. Not to mention “just bringing it back” is physically very difficult for some of us. So I chose to keep it, regrettably. I can’t count how many times my kids have told me that this thing is broken & it just sits there unused until my husband (who works out of state for periods of time) comes home & fixes it. Then a different part breaks. Tonight they told me that it is broken again so I looked at it & it really is broken this time. They can still use it, but it’s to the point where it’s going to be unusable after a few more hits at best, or it’s going to hurt someone at worst. It’s only been used 2 or 3 months, not even daily, & had a 12, 8, & 5 year old hitting it for probably 30 minutes at a time at the most. Do not waste your money. I will never purchase from this manufacturer again & I will never make a large purchase from Dicks again!

Not Too Impressed

I bought this for my 11 year old to practice. One of the bands broke as I tried to put it on. The arm wobbles a lot. Needs to be a little stiffer material.

Great Hitting Training Tool

I bought this for my daughter. She loves it. Spends hours a week practicing her swing without having to hall around a net and buckets of balls.
