Great!
Loved this when I was a kiddie, this was something that came up in conversation so purchased one to get both of us adults a bit of exercise.. it certainly did, had a good laugh too... worn out after 40mins!!! This has a built in ground spike with foot rest which makes easy work to put into ground, however we fitted ours into a existing ground spike to allow ease of removal.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Not for adults.
This is not a negative review as we stupidly thought the swing ball would be strong enough for teenagers and adults. Not so. Within a few hours we had lost the ring that attaches the string to the coil and had to replace it with a carabiner clip. We then hit the tennis ball so hard that the ball split. I would recommend the set for children (as suggested) but do not consider it to be strong enough or probably tall enough for adults.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Waste of money
Bought this for my 8 and 9 year old grandchildren, on the first day the ball split and came of the string, so to save tears and disappointment l bought another tennis ball, made a hole and stuck it with hot glue but 10 minutes into playing again one of the rackets split at the handle and nipped the skin on one of my little ones hand. So disappointed and angry with this item but don't know what to do.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Bat broke after 5 minutes
In theory it’s a simple structure but the flimsy bat broke in half after 5 minutes as not sturdy like other products for this game, it was clearly too thin for an actual tennis ball. The tennis ball also split in half after a day. Absolutely rubbish
