680PBH Pickleball Starter Kit, Including Launch Machine, Ball Recycling Net, Pickleball Paddle, 3 x Pickleballs and Carrying Bag

Recommend. Beginner wife loves it for practice. As others say, it is meant more for indoor practice as it launches the ball not very far…a design necessary to always hit into the net. Will give enough distance for a good floor bounce. I fixed net and launcher misalignment (caused by vibration movement of launcher as it rotates and launches the ball). Used 4 red paver bricks from Lowe’s ($0.68 each, 2 inches high) around base, and another two at back of net. Also used thin carpet over concrete. See photo. Also found using wood clothes pins to decrease looseness of net so ball don’t get stuck in slack areas helps. This keeps the system aligned for endless play. 2” high or less bricks so base can rotate. Can control launch base angle, time between each ball launch, rotation on/off and force of hit. Fun product.

First, having the net to into is great. That is very helpful to get lots of reps in. But, this ball machine is very weak and doesn't throw the balls more than like 5-6ft and the vibration of the ball launch mechanism causes the machine to move little by little so after about 7 balls the machine is throwing at a different angle and you have to move it back (the movement is a little less on carpet and more pronounced on hard surfaces).Even though the machine is weak, it is still very helpful to practice roll volleys, dinks, punches and, if you get low enough, some overhead smashes indoors. It's not useful on an actual pickleball court because it's not strong enough. Basically it's only good for standing in front of the machine and practices your form.

The media could not be loaded. I recently purchased the Pickleball Machine with Recycling Net, Oscillation, Adjustable Launch Angle, and Adjustable Launch Interval and I couldn't be happier! This machine has exceeded my expectations and has greatly improved my pickleball game.The recycling net feature is a game-changer as it allows for continuous play without having to retrieve the ball each time. The oscillation feature adds an extra level of challenge and helps me practice my shots in different areas of the court. The adjustable launch angle and interval allow for customization to my specific needs and level of play.The machine is also incredibly easy to use, with simple controls for adjusting the speed, spin, and trajectory of the balls. It's compact and lightweight, making it easy to move and store, but still feels sturdy and well-constructed.Everyone knows that to improve in any racket ball sports, you need to practice, practice, practice and practice some more, the more repetitions the better whether you play tennis, ping pong, or badminton. This machine allows you to practice your dink shots, drop shots, drive shots and most importantly the off-the-bounce shots.The 2 cons for this machine that I can see: 1. the distance of ball travels, it's about 7- 8 ft. I wish it would have a bit farther distance. 2. I wish it has the remote control to start/stop the machineOverall, I would highly recommend this Pickleball Machine to anyone looking to improve their pickleball skills. It has truly elevated my game and provided me with hours of enjoyable, challenging practice. If you're on the fence, don't hesitate to make the investment - you won't regret it!

So much fun for the whole family. Only reason not 5 stars is the machine scoots around and the plastic feeder pops out periodically which means it skips a ball every once in a while. So much fun for the whole family though and well worth the price.

The media could not be loaded. The distance is not long, but very good for indoor use, especially for winter and bad weather. As a beginner, I got significant improvement after practice with this machine for hours.The design of the recycling net is very smart, and it can collect most of the returns no matter light or heavy.As mentioned in other reviews, the machine is light and may move a little bit after every serve. It need readjust the position after about 100 serves.Compared the function and the price with other similar products, it worth the money.

Great for muscle memory training. Get their fast model for speed training also.

The machine has 4 setting for speed and a rotating base. On highest speed it will barely shoot out but it is better than tossing balls up by yourself. (Updated review: purchased this machine on Dec.31,2024 and the reason I am updated my review is due to the machine failing only after 43 days! I knew it would not last forever at that price. But, 13 days after return policy ended is ridiculous. Last night the machine starting making a weird noise and slowed down to where it would only feed a ball every 30 seconds instead of 4-5 secs . Also, I noticed it was getting slower in speed even on the highest setting 4. Not sure if I got a “LEMON” but now I see why Amazon listed as “Frequently returned” and was hoping the seller would replace or refund regardless of the 13 days out of return policy. Amazon should stop selling items that barely last over the return policy of 30 days, RIDICULOUS!!!!!

I bought this setup after seeing it on Ed Ju YouTube post. I did the research on the reviews and they are all correct. A. The hole is too small for the balls to fall cleanly. Fix - make a small cut, remove metal ring. I put in tungsten tape and sealed with duct tape. B. Machine moves because of kinetic force of the machine. Fix - placed on foam mat, and placed weights I had on sides and front, to keep from moving. If you are willing to make a few mods, this is the best setup for me in my opinion because I am using it in my garage with very little space. If you have a lot of space, the thrower wont send the balls over the net, and you might want a different setup.
