Franklin Sports Pop Rocket Baseball Hitting Training Aid

My son really enjoys this! Easy to bring with you small super easy set up and the battery last long!

got this for my grandson's birthday he loves it high quality

My grandson loves it. That pretty well sums my comments--and is the reason I rate the toy as 5 Stars. I'd add that I think he will continue to use this ball-hitting aid for another couple of years. Longevity is a plus for any toy that boys appx 3 YO play with. They usually can dismantle them quickly. So it's a good value for my money, it's lightweight and is easy to assemble and easy to store--2 more attributes that are worth mentioning.

This has been a blast for my five year old grandson and me. There are a few cautions though. The bat that comes with it is useless. We use a nerf bat instead. The batter has to be careful not to be leaning over the ball exit when it launches a ball; it will hurt. In our case this can happen if you are checking if there's a ball in the tube or when you are turning the machine on/off. And, the wind can easily make the ball drift too far away to hit. Just cautions...it's a lot of fun.

Grandson loves his sports pop rocket hitting machine. It definitely helped correct his swing, and also learned a sense of timing to hit the ball while waiting for it to shoot up. I highly recommend this to any young ball players.

To start off with the positive, I like the 7 second timer between shots gives kids time to set back up before the next pitch. However it shoots the balls way too high, far beyond the “sweet spot” for my daughter (who is 5 and 48” tall) making the balls very hard to track. She is very coordinated and hits an actual pitch fairly well for her age. It didn’t even hit my sweet spot for hitting and I’m 5’5. The device is also not compatible with actual normal size wiffle balls it comes with its own set of very small balls 5-6 of them (each one about 2- 2.5”). So once they are lost you would have to buy especially small ones to fit and use this apparatus again. We haven’t had it long so I cannot speak for the longevity of the items but it seems okay as far as quality isn’t horrible but not amazing. It isn’t heavy enough to place on the grass and stay balanced with the ball chute. We have to put it on our home base and make sure the surface is very level to even use it.

My kid loves this so much

This is a good little tool for young just beginning players. We also use it as a catching tool. We prop it up at an angle with pillows and he can catch balls by himself.
