My kids love this. We set it up during the summer not far from the basketball hoop. They go back and forth between the two and come up with fun games. Ah the imagination of kids! I do wish the base were just a bit larger. When the adults hop in and play we can get a little crazy and I think a heavier base would help. Other than that this is the perfect pairing for a swing set, dome climber, or basketball hoop.

Received what I expected for the money paid. Our family loves it, seems sturdy enough, and the quality is good. Our only complaint is how extremely hard it was to pour the sand into such a small hole in the base. I realize we could have used water, but I didn't want to have to worry about the water becoming disgusting after time or having to refill it. Overall, we are happy with the product.

We got these and gave them to each set of cousins last year. They have held up well in the winds of Nebraska and the cold as well as heat. I did add a swivel clip to the top to make it easier to take the ball off if I wanted to. The kids have an absolute blast playing it.

We've had this for several years and it still provides a lot of fun for our family and the neighborhood. The set is solidly built, my only "complaint" would be the metal base (inside the plastic) leaves rust stains on the concrete. I did have one ball that would not hold air, after about 5 minutes in the store I walked away with a replacement at no charge. They definitely stand by their product name!

I purchased this about 2 months ago for something to keep the kids busy and active outdoors during the summer. I was surprised with how study the base is when playing and don't notice any wobble of the pole, even with the hardest hits on the ball. I just hope I can keep my undefeated status as the kids grow up. I expect years of reliable use from the tetherball set.

We had this set up on the driveway and would come home to find any kids walking by stopping to play! It's a great product and provides hours of fun for everyone. Our only issue was that the seams on the ball eventually came apart. We have since replaced it.

We bought this teatherball set 2 years ago. The top cap broke after 3 months but we neglected to fix it . I just called customer service to buy a new cap and they are sending it to me, free of charge! I realize the part is inexpensive but there aren't many companies that would be willing to do that. Thank you Lifetime!!!

Pros:"Soft tetherball","Kids and adults all have" Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. Fun for all ages, we've had it set up out front where the neighborhood kids can join in, and moved it to the backyard so we can have a game before and after dinner. Its great.

We got this new tetherball system to upgrade/replace our old one and we love it! Our old system was just a pole in the ground in the middle of our backyard. The best thing about this new system is the portability! We were able to use it in our backyard and then immediately move it to the front yard to include neighbor kids! The stabilizer kit is great. It stayed upright and stable whether it was a kid or adult playing. We filled the base with water, but plan to replace it with sand before the winter hits to avoid any freezing concerns. Assembly instructions were a bit confusing, especially when installing the split collar, but we figured it out and it was smooth sailing from there. We love having this new system and highly recommend it to anyone considering it!

Easy to assemble, portable. Our family really enjoys it. We just filled with water so it's easy to remove for transport. The only minor problem is the small screw holding the rope at the top of the pole works its way out every few days of play time, then the ball doesn't wrap around the pole.
