Im loving thus. Only batting practice my 8u dtr was getting was during games or if I took her to an expensive cage. It is nearly identical to her league’s machine (smaller wheel). Comes with softball or baseball feeder, and can pitch 0-50mph.

Simply no negatives about it at this point, hopefully it stands the test of time. Using with Jugs Perfect Strike Softballs.

I bought this machine three months ago as we have a large back area and can have live batting practice every day. My 13 year old son has been transitioning from a drop 10 bat to a drop 3. He needed a lot of repetitions and he gets plenty with this machine.
We set up the machine at 39 feet from home plate at 50MPH. Once you learn to set it up and tune it in it throws a large majority of strikes and at that speed and distance is very realistic.
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
1. Use the Jugs Sting Free Balls. These hard plastic dimpled balls are easier on the machine and throw more consistent strikes. I do not recommend this machine with leather balls. Plus the plastic balls are a little more juiced and make hitting more fun.
2. We bought a small net as a backstop to keep unhit balls from getting lost behind home plate.
3. I clean the wheel of the machine and the plastic balls after every two hitting sessions. It helps in the throwing accuracy of the machine.
My son loves it and so do I. He was a good hitter, now he is a helluva hitter. This machine is consistent enough and I have put over 1000 balls through it. We love it!

I’m not very handy and had a poor experie3nce with another machine before this one. This was simple and easy. I’d highly recommend it!

When the product arrived it was missing all the legs and the additional softball sleeve. Dicks went out of their way to make it right. The machine is great. The adjustable speed makes it great for batting practice for my 10 year old and my 6 year old daughters. The ability to use lite flite and regular softballs gives us safe indoor and outdoor options.

I coach both my boys baseballs teams (10 and 8 y/o). It is very easy to use and extremely accurate. The only bad review on here sounds like they didn’t air it up to the correct amount. We put a little too much air in and it pitched wild. We corrected the air and it was back to normal. I’ve used it for a year and a half of heavy use and its still going strong.

I bought this machine Spring of 2015 and held off on giving a review until i really got some good use out of it. First and foremost you MUST use real leather balls!!! Cheap balls will tear and/or have the cover totally ripped off. Also, you will never get an accurate pitch with cheap “practice” grade balls. You must also make sure the tire has been sanded a bit and has the proper amount of air in the tire. I’ve used this machine for 3 seasons now and have put a couple thousand balls thru it with no let down! My 10 yr. old son hits 60 – 90 balls prior to every game on top of 150 balls per team practice (used for batting practice as well as pop fly drills). Won’t find a better machine at this price, the only thing you might want to consider is you’ll probably be spending at least $100 a year on new leather balls, otherwise a great purchase!
