Would buy it again ⭐️
I dont normally write reviews for my purchases, but this ball launcher is amazing. Worth every penny. My 10yo son uses it outside, it launches the ball far and consistently to the same area. We absolutely love this.

Dads arm gets a rest
Watching my friends dad who’s thrown approximately 1 million pitches in the backyard, let me just say—this pitching machine is a lifesaver. The Franklin 4-in-1 lets my kid practice hitting, fielding, and pop flies without me throwing my shoulder out. 🙌 The adjustable angles are awesome—we switch between grounders and pop-ups in seconds. The red light warning is a great touch (less surprise, more swings!), and the 3 speeds give it just enough challenge. Plus, every 5 seconds? Perfect. Just enough time for my kid to reset while he sip my coffee. It’s easy to use, the foam balls are kid-friendly, and most importantly… my throwing arm is officially on vacation. Highly recommend for any parent trying to survive Little League season with their rotator cuff intact.

Doesn’t work as expected
Don’t buy! I saw other negative reviews but still thought I’d try it for myself. First when I opened the box the item looks used with scratches and dirt on it. Went ahead and installed the batteries and even a power connector with negative results. The product did not turn on. This was a Xmas gift and unfortunately my nephew won’t be able to enjoy it.

Great Kids pitching machine
This kids pitching machine works great! My sons are 5 and 4 and have had a great time playing with it! It’s pretty actuate for the location it pitches.

Not all baseball balls are campible
Is ok. It works. It shoots the ball out but not consistent speed. And if you need additional balls, you need to buy the same balls made from the same company of this pitcher. Any other balls that state that they are the same size of 9 inch circumference and 2.75 inch radius are not compatible. BEWARE!

Better than I Imagined
We love this. It shoots plenty far, ample time for one person to load then get to batting place. Withstood torrential rain. Love its battery AND power cord options. Great speed control. Great price. Awesome for learning to bat. Highly recommend.

Ball pitcher! Buy it.
8 year old loves it. Great for learning, but ball does not always pitch in the same spot. Good learning tool.

Great for boys transitioning from t-ball to pitching.

El tamaño, la potencia y la calidad del producto hacen un producto increíble y súper divertido para la práctica de bateo de niños. Los lanzamientos son lo suficientemente rápidos para que quienes comienzan a practicar puedan tener buenos ratos de diversión. El único detalle a considerar es que usa baterías tipo C pero hasta ahora el consumo me aparece bueno.
