This toy is great, it only needs a small fix in order to work as advertised, which of course is not a nice thing but if you really want to play with it, you should try this: For kids 6 and under cover more or less 60% of the velcro at the bottom of the black vertical ball-holder, since otherwise it will over-stick to the ball and wont let your kid enjoy because the ball will be impossible to detach using the baseball bat.

I bought this for my son's 5th birthday. We just got batteries for it this week three weeks after he was given it and used it for the first time. Honestly it is a POS. The rod that grabs the ball has Velcro on the bottom, which sometimes doesn't grab the ball. The rod was bent in the box, it is only plastic so you can bend it straight, but when my son hits the ball sometimes, more often than not, it holds the ball so tight that the plastic bends and slaps the ball loose or the ball doesn't come loose at all and the arm holding the rod snaps off having to be reassembled. This happens constantly and I thought at first it was my son missing the ball and hitting the rod, he sat there today and hit the ball around 5 times and it never came loose. I hit the ball just to see if maybe he wasn't hitting it or hitting it hard enough. I hit it the first time, the ball stayed there, I hit it again a little harder and the arm came off. This thing is a lousy design, it looks good but does not work the way they show it working. You are better off getting a t-ball set or one of those rubber band ones mounted on a pole that go in circles. Wish they still made the Johnny Bench Batter Ups like they had when I was a kid. Don't buy this!!!

I got this for my three year old grandson who loves sports. He spent a huge amount of time with this toy. It held up well day after day and helped with eye hand coordination. It was such a big hit that I've ordered another one for my other grandson. I do feel the price is too high as is the case for most toys that are all plastic, but it appears there is no alternative to picking our wallets for the benefit of our little ones. If you can afford to pay this inflated price, your little one will have long days of entertainment.

My son loves it!
My 3 1/2 yr old loves this batting system. Once he got the hang of what to do, it provided fun for a long time. It'll be great once the cold & snow go away!

Would be great if not for the velcro.
