Bownet Original Big Mouth 7' x 7' Baseball & Softball Training Net - Durable Powder-Coated Steel Frame - Portable Practice Net with Carry Bag - Perfect for Backyard, Field & Team Drills (Orange)

This net is simply awesome. Here is what I like so far:* It is very easy to setup and tear down. The first time took me about 2-3 minutes to setup, but now that I know what to so it really only takes about 1-2 minutes tops. Taking down is the same, very easy which is what you want in a mobile net.* The quality and weight of the poles/frame is great, very sturdy and feels strong. The netting I would say is a medium fabric, not the thinnest and not the thickest. Seems durable but time will only tell.* Back to being sturdy, the first day I used it, it was windy. My son and I were hitting balls off the tee and throwing pitches into the net and it never fell down. I did get it to tip once later in our session but compared to the other flimsy nets I have seen, this one pretty much stays put. I eventually put the anchors that come with the net into the ground, that held it down very well. My son was purposely trying to knock it over and it stayed put.* The net is BIG. I like this because my son can hit off the tee and if he hits the ball wrong, the net still catches it. No more running after the ball from an awkward hit. Great for pitching into as well, especially if you miss the target/strike zone you are still hitting the net.* Minimal bounce back from the ball. First of all, the mouth of the net is big so most of the time the ball will go into the back of the net. However, if you miss the mouth the ball will bounce back but very softly. So no worries about hitting the ball off the tee and having it bounce back at you.* I love that this net comes with its own travel bag. The bag is of decent material and seems strong but once again, time will only tell.If I had a con, which I really don't, it would be that the net does not come with instructions. You really do not need them, this net is very easy to setup. I simply looked up on YouTube how to setup the Bownet and there are many videos showing you how. I watched one video and figured it out from there.I highly recommend this net. It feels strong, has a good weight for the base frame and it is super easy to setup and tear down. I love that it is over-sized too so missing the strike zone or hitting the ball awkwardly still hits the net. Though I get it isn't cheap but the cheap ones are cheap for a reason from what I have found out. I look at it as a small investment for my son's future that should hopefully last for many seasons.I will attempt to update my review later on during the season if any of my review points change.
