The body of this tee is heavy duty. The problem is that the part that holds the ball is flimsy. The ball is held on rubber fingers (zoom in to the top and you will see what I mean). The rubber fingers break off during normal use. Franklin does not stock the replacement piece (called a "ball holder" on the [...]). I made the mistake of ordering what appeared to be the correct replacement piece but it turned out to be for the model 1956 and will not work with this tee (model 1957). In short, the body of the tee is heavy duty but the part that holds the ball wears out quickly and replacement parts are not available. I would not buy this tee again.

The notches on the top break really quickly and you can't get replacement parts. The rest of the tee is heavy duty plastic, but it's useless without the top part that holds the ball. I don't recommend this item.

I am a senior that has started playing softball again in the "old Timer's" league. I needed to get my stroke back and have found this to help with my swing and power. I use a heavy bat in the winter for strength training and to help my eye on the ball. I have been able to regain some of my long ball power with the use of this tee and the 48 oz. bat found here on Amazon. Use of the Tee will help anyone get their eye back, and help regain bat speed. Even pros use a Tee!

I did not know what to expect for the price, but was very happy when the batting tee arrived. It is a very sturdy tee and will work for team purposes. Do not hesitate to buy this product it is an excellent batting tee.

This is a solid tee. On one hand it comes very badly shipped. Product damage IE. tee holder ripped. That is not the tee's fault it's the seller's so ignore that. Although today after maybe a week of constant use my dad took a swing and knocked the brush top right off. This is why this product only receives 4 stars. The problem was easily fixed with some Krazy Glue, but it was a hassle.

Hi, I'm a father 3: 13yrs., 5yrs., and 9mos... My oldest already has improve his hitting by 60 percent this season. Raven was the nominated for rookie of the yr., in Tee Ball, by taking cuts off the Tee for a month and a half (DID I MENTION THAT RAVEN IS A 5YR OLD GIRL!!??!!). Imagine her beating out all those BOYS for rookie of the yr... Oh yeah, Wear and Tear... WHERE???!!??? NOT here! With the amount of brutal punishment that these two have put this Tee through and it STILL holding up, my youngest will be able use it in another 4yrs. NO EXAGGERATIONS! Just make sure you get the PRO version (1957), and not the cheaper one...
