Furlihong 3807BH Tennis Ball Machine with Triangular Base, Adjustable Speeds, Oscillating Left&Right, Up&Down Swing Launch Port, for All Levels Training

Love this thing. I had shoulder surgery last year and have been working on getting back into shape. Played tennis when I was younger and loved it. This lets me go play any time I want. No partner needed. Works well. Some balls fall short but I think that is just an adjustment that needs to be made or move the machine closer to the net. Otherwise, the balls are sent with plenty of force and mimics another person on the other side lobbing balls. You can get a really good workout when its set to random directions. The hopper tower for the balls could use some work but it works reliably well for what it is. But you only get about 25-30 balls per session so you spend a lot of time filling it back up. Would be nice if they had a simple square hopper you could throw the balls into and feed from. I use a portable power pack from Bluetti to power it and it can go for hours. If you are looking for a way to play tennis without a partner and not spend 1000+ on a tennis ball machine. This is the thing to get.

I used to have a Wilson ball machine that was like $1,500. I bought it many years ago, it came with a remote, and it worked great, with three caveats. 1) took up a big footprint in my garage for storage. 2)ran off a 12 volt battery, and once that battery died, I had to plug into 120 volt power when available, and here in Vegas it’s all outdoor courts, so I had to always bring extension cords and hope their was power to plug into. 3)it was heavy, and obviously expensive, and when it stopped working, it was impossible to find a place to have it looked at/battery replaced. I wasn’t going to spend that kind of money again, so I started looking at cheaper alternatives, and after looking at a ton of options on Amazon mostly, I liked the mostly positive reviews on this model, so I decided to try it. Brought it out to the court today, and tried it out. It was easy to set up, and it worked. Now, don’t set it up at the baseline, set it up at the center top of the service boxes for best placement, and then adjust your low/high settings. It works! Also, any slightest dirt or debris on the balls or inside the machine and the balls will get jammed, so keep it clean. The only minor grip is the carry bag it comes with is super cheaply made. Mine tore a hole in the corner right away, and the zipper came off its track. I tossed it in the trash for a better duffle bag I already had at the house. Also, you might want to invest in some rechargeable D batteries, 6 to be exact, as I did, it’s worth it! All in all I think this is worth the money,(so far) and it does what it’s supposed to do. My son, my wife and I all got a great workout for at least 1 hour off of batteries that didn’t die btw, with this thing, and I think we had it loaded with a total of 36 tennis balls. I bought extra tracks for it on Amazon. Give it a try, you’ll like it if you’re a beginner, to intermediate like myself.

Updated review after support from the seller - The seller was very helpful to provide support. It looks like previous unit i received was badly damaged during shipping by Amazon. Exchanged unit is working fine with very good packaging. Throwing range is little less than what is specified in the specification. Throwing angle reduces as you go over 15/20 minutes in the battery. I guess this might be battery issue. I have not tried this long plugged in. Overall, this is very unit at this price point with three axis automatic rotation - very helpful to practice alone.

Awful product. First one rotors never worked and had to have the product replaced. Second one went through one round of balls and the rotor stopped working again. Not worth it in the slightest.

I like the design, which can move vertically and horizontally. I don't mind the inconsistency; it can make me run more for exercise. The problem is the ball feeding motor hiding inside the chasse. The first one last two weeks, the replacement last only two days. I practice one or two times a day, each time is about one and half hours. I am suggesting the company can beef up this part, it can have much better sales.

Even the ball launching is inconsistent but I still really enjoy the machine. It is strong enough to launch the balls with a good range. The price is really acceptable. The customer service is really great, they responded my issues real fast. Thank you.

Bought this item, it didn't work. Set it up for return and bought another one. That one arrived and it wasn't working. Sent them both back and reached out to the company. They sent a replacement and it worked for a month. They sent another replacement and that worked for less than a month and they said they're not sending another replacement. When it worked it was great but it doesn't work for long. Just buy the expensive launchers on the market.

This machine is well-build. I got this in Jan and have used it for 2-3 times as it's cold outside. It launched tennis balls at varying distances and angles, feeding through an entire set seamlessly. I am not big fan of running on batteries therefore I bought a portable Power Station 500watts. Customer service is excellent as they are prompt in responding. A couple of my ball-feed tracks were compressed but the customer service replaced them free of cost. Although you can disassemble them after practice i prefer to keep them assemble so don't waste much time next time (just remove it from the main unit). Machine throws balls in different directions, and good for both practice shorts and work out. It is portable, and everything fits into a the duffle bag that come with it. I will likely try it more in next couple of months and may give the update how it worked during summer.
