Why did you go cheap on the fasteners?
I bought this product for my son. It has great reviews and appeared to be pretty rugged. I noticed when setting the hit trainer up, that everything was heavy duty And well thought out except for one thing. The plastic on the fasteners are cheap. The trainer showed up with one already broken from shipping and another about to break. I think the engineering let you down on this. Is there a place that I can find replacements! Overall great product that needs a bit of improvement.

    Great trainer for 8 year old
    This was easy to set up- took less than 10 min for my teenager and I to put it together. I read lots of negative reviews (missing items, etc) but went ahead and purchased. My 8 year old has been using it for over a week with no issues. I did remove two of the bungees so that the arm would swing all the way around when he hits (less tension). I would definitely recommend this trainer. I can see an improvement in his batting stance, swing and confidence.

    Evolves with the player
    Excellent tool for keeping hitters on top of their training and immediately shows them when they have areas needing improvement

    So far, so good
    We have only had this for a couple of weeks, but the kids love using it and it works great. There is going to be 7-12 inches of snow today in Kansas City and the kids will be able to practice hitting on this in the basement. Once they begin hitting on it, they don't want to stop, so it definitely make practice time more fun. This will help improve their hand eye coordination and get them tons of reps to build up their strength before the season. Looking forward to seeing how this translates to pratice and games this summer. The machine itself seems to be put together really well. it is very stable even and it stays upright and doesn't slide around even when I swing on it. I am 6' and weigh 190lbs and I am taking full swings at it. This is much better than standing there holding the hitting stick and you can tell when you get a good hit or not because the arm will just bounce up and down if you don't hit it cleanly. Not sure how it would hold up to an entire team using it daily, but for my 2 boys (age 5 and 10), it works great and I don't see them wearing it out anytime soon.

    Good youth training device
    I purchased this for my 7-year-old son to use. Set it up in our basement during winter months and it is a good hitting trainer. I coach high school age kids too but I don't think that I would let them use this. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure that it would help and they could use it, but I know that they would try to hit it as hard as they can and I don't think that it would hold up long to that. It was very easy to set up. It is a little on the heavy side but I think that will help its durability. This is a great deal too from Walmart...cheapest price around.

    excellent for travel
    This is a great machine when you are out of hands at a travel tornament or when you have young ones around the house who are always looking to do some batting practice. Great to be able to differentiate solid hits from the uppercut or downward swing. I just wish there was something to make it stop sooner and reset so kids don't get bad habit of swinging at a bouncing stick.

    This has improved my son's batting tremendously. We have also been taking our's to practice and letting the entire team take turns on it and it is helping everyone improve their swing and make the ball connect with the bat. Love that it is taken down so easily and fits into a bag for easy transfer!

    Good for all ages : kid thru adult
    This is a well made item. You can adjust height and how fast it returns the "ball". My kids spend hours with it. Definitely have them use batting gloves and a bat that is not used for games. It is nice that they don't have to chase the ball and I don't have to squat and catch for hours. Definitely a product that will grow with them and their needs/talent. It is heavy, so I don't see us transporting it to the fields as a warm-up.
