"good value"

The installation instructions were a little bit off, but once we got it put together correctly (which wasn't difficult to figure out), it's worked perfectly. A very good value, my 10-year-old really likes using it and is getting much more baseball practice now. 4 stars

"stands up to hard use..."

We've had our pitchback for a couple of months now and it gets used by everybody in the family and all our kid visitors. It had proven to be durable and hasn't lost any of elasticity in the net. Adjusts easily and quickly to different angles for pop ups, grounders, return throws. The assembly instructions do leave a little to be desired, but it wasn't too hard to get it together since you have pretty good photos of the assembled unit on the exterior of the package to help along the written directions.

I did notice that the clips that hold the net to the frame have started to rust, but they seem to be solid enough gauge metal to last for a while even if they look nasty. We don't use the red "target" attachment with ours as it tends to deaden the reaction of the net. Unit does come with a strike zone pitch target that is not shown. To use it, you remove the pitch back net and replace with a solid tarp that has an image of a batter. The tarp has a strike zone sized opening with a net to collect the strike balls that make it through the target.

Overall, this has been a worthwhile purchase and we are pleased with its performance. 4 stars

"Baseball Net-works!"


The purchase of the Spaulding Pitching Target Return Throw Backstop has proved to be an excellent one.
It was in constant use all last year from spring until late fall and is still ready for this year's use.
Our seven year old son used it almost daily to practice his pitching on. He loved using it.
All the parts were intact and have held up just fine. I would purchase this same one again.

"Missing pieces!"

The throw back arrived with incorrect pieces in the box. The poles were not the correct part and would not go together. There was no way to request replacement parts, can only send it back. 1 star

"back stop"

we got the item purchased before the date you said would be shipped. Which was wonderful it got here a day before the birthday party for grand daughter.the back stop has been in use about everyday as she is practicing throwing and catching as she is 8 years old. Even her sister 5 years old is using it. 5 stars
