It works really well for younger kids

This was easy to set up- took less than 10 min for my teenager and I to put it together. I read lots of negative reviews (missing items, etc) but went ahead and purchased. My 8 year old has been using it for over a week with no issues. I did remove two of the bungees so that the arm would swing all the way around when he hits (less tension). I would definitely recommend this trainer. I can see an improvement in his batting stance, swing and confidence.

Shipped in literally 2 days. Very happy with this purchase. My 12 year old says it’s addicting to keep hitting lol! She thinks she can break it... I say go ahead and try!! As she hits harder and harder developing more power and coordination haha! Great product!

This is a well made item. You can adjust height and how fast it returns the "ball". My kids spend hours with it. Definitely have them use batting gloves and a bat that is not used for games. It is nice that they don't have to chase the ball and I don't have to squat and catch for hours. Definitely a product that will grow with them and their needs/talent. It is heavy, so I don't see us transporting it to the fields as a warm-up.

Great training aid. My 8-year-old has gotten serious about working on his hitting in the off-season, and this is a great tool. He loves it and has a bunch of fun hitting in the basement. The Walmart online order and curbside pickup processes were super easy and convenient. Recommended across the board.

I bought this for my grandson's 9th birthday based on reviews on line. It is great! He can practice by himself if no one else is around. My son-in-law likes it too- he can spend more time watching son's swing. It is cold in the Northeast but that doesn't stop him from practicing after school. One of the knobs at the bottom arrived broken but the SKLZ people were great and got a replacement in the mail immediately. It is heavy, we put a tarp over it and leave it out in the yard due to daily use. Play ball!

My son got this for his 11th birthday two weeks ago and has played with it almost every day. I love the fact that there are no baseballs flying around the yard anymore and he can use this trainer independently. It seems to be well contructed, easy to put together. I think I may need to get a tarp to put over it since I'm not sure if it will get damaged from the rain overtime. I don't know if my son's swing has improved any yet, but he is having a great time practicing.

This trainer was easy to set up and came with a carrying duffel bag. It is very robust and strong enough for hitters big and small. I wish I'd bought this last season when I was considering it as it is getting hours of use in the first several weeks. Primary use was for my 8 year old son but everyone in the family has had fun with it.

This has improved my son's batting tremendously. We have also been taking our's to practice and letting the entire team take turns on it and it is helping everyone improve their swing and make the ball connect with the bat. Love that it is taken down so easily and fits into a bag for easy transfer!

I like the swing trainer, but it's heavy, and the bag they supply is trash, didn't last for 6 months. SKLZ, once you finally get in touch with someone, refuses to replace the bag, or offer a replacement despite the warranty. Now I'm shopping for a heavy duty canvas bag to get it to practices and games.
