Review: Well-built, easy to use, light enough to transport, and incredibly versatile - Ordered this for my 8 year old AAA player who wanted to work on both hitting and fielding. He is primarily a catcher, so he also wanted to practice both catching and blocking pitches. This has been exactly what he wanted. He and I researched extensively and made lists of features for many different models. We both agreed that this machine seemed too notch, and we weren't wrong. He is in love with his pitching machine, and was able to build it himself. It's light enough for him to transport back and forth to our garage, and he found it simple to power with a few extension cords. We originally were worried about using it without a battery, but now that we've tried it, we'll stick with plugging it in since it's not a problem. He's saving up for the automatic feeder, so right now either myself or his sisters feed the balls for him to hit, which is very simple to do. Moving the machine to make slight adjustments is also very simple, and all components seem built to last. We've been extremely happy with the ease of use. It's also been great for practicing pop-ups. The one thing I will say is that, even after adjusting the machine to exactly where you want it, there are occasional pitches that are just off the mark. I understand that's to be expected with something like this, and that it's also more of what he'll see in a game, but sometimes I end up readjusting the angle only to miss my target by even more. I think the accuracy of the machine is somewhat determined by the way in which you feed the balls. But in general, we've been pleased with the accuracy. If you're on the fence or confused by all the different options out there, or even if you're wary of the price, I don't think you'll be disappointed if you take the plunge and purchase this. My son has had friends over recently, and this machine occupies them for hours, and requires very little input or help from me. If it's easy enough for a third grader to operate, but is also great for my 30 year old brother, it's clearly a machine with large appeal and versatility. I already see an improvement in his hitting. We are very happy with this purchase and look forward to using this for years.
Review: I highly recommend purchasing the battery pack since you don't always have ... - I coach a U8 baseball team and was looking for a machine that was solidly made, but not too expensive. I was a little reluctant to purchase this model because you have to use the Lite-Flite balls, but this turned out to be ideal for multiple reasons: 1). Kids who were jumping out of the batter's box even when it was a strike became less afraid, were able to identify a strike coming into the plate, and started hitting in games much to their parent's surprise. 2). Safety - I was able to conduct more efficient batting practice because I didn't have to make sure the entire team in the field was paying attention to every pitch since if these balls hit them, it doesn't hurt (with 8 year olds, many loose their attention span in 30 seconds). 3). There is some variance in the location of pitches since the balls are lighter, so the player doesn't get used to hitting pitches right down the middle of the plate. 4). I used this for teaching them how to catch pop-flies and get under the ball without the fear of getting hit in the face (you can use it for grounders, but if there's grass it dies out quick since the balls are light). I purchased two buckets of balls (18 per), so I could give each kid 72 looks if I went through all of them twice. This probably at least doubled our efficiency in batting practice versus coach pitching. I highly recommend purchasing the battery pack since you don't always have an outlet nearby and it eliminates the safety hazard of having the electrical cord run through the field. It's a bit overpriced, but almost a must have to be mobile. I plan on using this machine for years to come as it goes up to about 75-80 mph, throws curve balls and sliders, and could also be setup in your basement with some netting. Even for older ball players, it would still be effective to keep the hand/eye coordination going, but I'd probably want to supplement it with a hard ball throwing machine at some point.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I would only buy this one if I can use regular hard balls and regular softballs**
A: This pitching machine works really well with the plastic balls. Sometimes the children get hit with them. It can hurt pretty bad. I'd sure hate to see it be hard balls. It's a great machine!!!

**Q: I have a jugs pitching machine. I need a part that keeps the legs separated, (star shape) with the  T-clamp. Where can I get this  part?**
A: Jugs parts and service department.  I believe they are only open during the mornings in the Winter.  1-800-547-6843.

**Q: How fast does it pitch? We are going into Babe Ruth and need at least 70 MPH**
A: It will simulate 70 mph, but not pitch that fast. You have to move it closer, something like 40-38 feet to simulate that speed. The weight of the balls gives them a lot of movement , which gives the appearance that they are going faster. The curves and sliders are the biggest advantage that this machine can give you. It's harder to hit than the real thing, so makse hanging curves look like they are on a tee. A real pitcher can't throw curves or sliders as good as this machine.

**Q: Can you use dimpled balls?**
A: I would not.  Machine is under powered for weight of dimple balls.  The lite flite balls a are a lighter dense nerf material.  Not the same density of the standard solid dimple ball.  Than being said, the lite flite balls will not break a window.  We hit them without a net and many leave the yard and make the house next door without damage.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ surpassed my expectations
*by L***N on April 22, 2014*

This is the first year my 7 yr old is on pitching machine baseball league and I wanted to get somewhat of a similar affect to the game. My son was not even coming close to hitting the pitches of the pitching machine roughly 43 mph fast balls from practice. We have worked on this machine maybe 4 times in the last 2 weeks. His hitting is up dramatically. We went from not hitting anything before the season started and in his first 2 games he has gone 2/2 and 3/3. this machine really does help. it is very consistent on where it pitches and extremely intuitive on adjusting the pitches. I was skeptical just as anyone else would be of this product. It has surpassed all of my expectations and the results have been phenomenal. There is little risk to NO risk of injury. these balls do not hurt if it hits them. My son will stand right in front of it and I will shoot it at him as we are goofing off. I would recommend this product to anyone as it is less than half of the cost of a real pitching machine ($1,300) and virtually the same affect to build timing. you will not be disappointed. Also, You will be able to sell it for close what you paid for it when you are done with it. I was amazed /shocked on what these still sell for on ebay and craigslist which is also a good indication that it is a very well built machine. I will comeback in few months to see how well this has worked over the next couple of months.
