Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
When the box arrived at my door right away I was impressed at how large it was. This is nothing like the cheap volleyball/badmitten/horseshoe combo sets you can buy in a store and all the pieces fit in a tiny bag. This thing is solid and well made. This thing is built to last and stand up to some hard use.
The things I like about this set are:
* Comes WITH ball and ball pump.
* Comes WITH a large nylon bag to store the thing in when not in use.
* Has durable metal ground stakes that the the poles fit over, so you aren't making huge holes in the yard.
* The poles themselves are very sturdy thick aluminum, I'd say 2 inches in diameter if not more.
* Comes with guide ropes that are very sturdy yellow braided nylon.
* The net appears very well made, unlike some of the tangled thin messes you get in a cheaper set.
* The net has 3 adjustable heights 7 feet, 7' 4" and 8".
* There is also a feature with the net so you can keep track of score
* There is of course an instruction guide, which includes official rules to the game.
The ball itself is pretty nice it's got kind of a "cushy" feel to it. Much better than the uber hard ones that make red marks on your arms. In school when I played volleyball most of the balls were much better quality than the one included here, but really - the one they included is a fine alternative. Unless you are really taking your volleyball seriously, this ball will be fine. And if you do take your volleyball seriously, then you'd already HAVE a better model to use.
This set is going to be good for jr/sr. high school age kids, college students, or drunk relatives at family reunions. It seems so much sturdier than many sets on the market. I think if someone stumbles into the net it's not going to break anything, which is all you really can ask for when getting a volleyball set.
