Great Product- even better service!!

I bought this for my daycare center and it gets a ton of use and has held up great. 1 of the kids took the cap off and we lost it. We fill with water because it makes it studier than sand and can empty it that way. I contacted Lifetime and they sent me a new cap at no charge. So thankful and will only purchase from lifetime from here on out!

Fully fun family activity

This set is great! The entire family plays together. The kids love this set and want to play with it all of their spare time. It is sturdy and performs well. The only thing that is not great is that the rope flys off of the pole every so often, but I think we didn't tighten the clasp well enough. We are so happy that we have this great birthday gift!!!

So fun for family and friends!

This was fairly easy to set up. We had two adults and it took 45 minutes. One would take longer and be more tricky. Our favorite feature is the ball - great quality, see photo. The stabilizer bars make it nice and sturdy. Remember playing tether ball with the tire and concrete? It’s similar to that but not as bulky. It does not get in the way. The ball has come unhooked a couple times from the top of the bar but that is because we didn’t tighten the screw well. Make sure it’s tight. We have loved playing this together so much that we’re all sore! It’s a great product to get you out and moving. I would recommend this to people for sure.

Great customer service

We got the portable tetherball but didn't get a chance to open the box for 6 months. When we assembled it 6 months later the pole was wobbly. Their customer service was amazing and they absolutely took care of our issue. The tetherball assembly is awesome! The kids love it!! Good fun while getting good exercise!!

missing parts

The set was sent as a birthday present for my five-year old grandson in Oxford, Ms. When the package arrived, a bolt was missing, so he didn't get the present and my son just returned it to the store. I read that other people also had missing parts on this item. You need to do a better job with quality control...

The kids love it!

We've had this product at our cabin for a few years. It get used a lot! We've had to replace the ball a couple of times. The screw on top of the pole needs to tightened periodically. No big deal. Customer Service has been great to work with. I would highly recommend this product!

Lots of fun for everyone!

We bought this Lifetime Tetherball system last year for our daughter's birthday, and it has been a big hit! Everyone in the family can get involved and play, and all the friends who come over love that we have this in our backyard, when they are used to only seeing it at a park or school. The ball and rope are still in great condition, even after leaving it outside since we set it up, and so are the pole and base.

Tetherball

I called to get a replacement tetherball for our Lifetime pole. We’ve had this in our backyard for many, many years. The kids love to play it. It’s always a great piece of entertainment when others come to visit. The gentleman on the phone was very helpful and shipped a new ball with string and a clasp at no charge. The package came way sooner than expected. I am very pleased with the service.

Amazing Fun

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!

Would have given it 4-1/2 stars if I could have

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.
