A Good Tennis Partner
I have only had the Tennis Tutor for about a week and have used it four times. While it is easy to use you must experiment with the machine in order to find the appropriate ball speed, elevation and ball feed that is appropriate for you. This really is not a problem.The machine weighs about 25 lbs. so it can be a bit cumbersome to carry it from your car along with your racquet and a ball hopper to the tennis court particularly if you are older. It would be helpful if the machine had wheels but that may not be practical. It appears that the battery will power the machine for about 3 hours and then need a recharge. I have used the machine for about two hours without any problem. However, it does take a long time to recharge - usually about 6-8 hours. Therefore, you must start the recharge after you get off the court if you plan to use it later or in the morning.Another issue for me is the short delay between the time you turn the machine on and the time the balls begin to fire from the machine. This machine has a 10 second delay which for me is not adequate to get from one end of the court to the other end and be ready to return balls. It would be great if there where a way to adjust the timing. The only other solution is to purchase the remote control device which I believe is about $200.All-in-all it is a good machine based on my experience thus far.

Works pretty well
We had a problem with the plastic doors, the hinges are not very strong and one of them broke. I tried to contact the manufacturer support via email to see if there was a way to get a replacement, but they never responded. I take that to mean that basically there is no support for these machines. I ended up supergluing and duct taping the hinge and it seems to be hanging on OK. The battery lasts fairly long, and it does look like you could supplement it with an external battery if you wanted to do the work to get something with the right voltage.It does jam up occasionally, which can be cleared by turning everything off and usually emptying all of the balls out to get to the jam. Sometimes you can clear something stuck by reaching it through the front. I've returned balls right into the exit hole, more than once, that ended up way in the back of the machine.For a little machine, it can put out a pretty strong ball. It's not loud and all of the adjustments make for good practice options. If you just want consistent repetitions or you want to run around a court, this machine will do what you need.

very good
bought this for tennis practice. I've lost lots of weight playing tennis. The machine is a little heavy but I don't have trouble carrying it around with me. It doesn't have an app that connects to your phone, so you just turn the machine on and then get ready to play. For what it does, it's well worth the price. If you don't have the money for a $2k machine, this one is perfect. I play tennis everyday with this machine, it's great.

worth the price
Awesome machine! bought it for myself to play since my wife wasn't interested in playing with me. Now she uses and says its a great cardio work out and has improved her game. Our 7 year old can use it as well(with supervision) and the speed can be set low enough that it doesn't hurt if hit by the balls. The price point was motivation for me to use it more often and its held up great.

You will never guess how we use this!!
I love this machine. It delivers as advertised. However, rather than use it for tennis we use it to shoot balls to our dogs. They love it and we love it. The dogs are learning to retrieve and get so excited when they see the machine moving we should make a You Tube video of it!! Sturdy machine.

It’s a bit expensive... but it’s a really good reliable well built machine.
The ball machine is quite durable and reliable.I find that I don’t miss not ordering the remote control .... I simply set it up .... watch a couple balls being projected .... turn the power off ... and adjust as necessary.I still haven’t tried the full speed setting of 10 ... 7 speed setting is pretty fast so much so that I miss half my shots.I used a luggage cart to move it around.It’s a very good machine so far .... no real complaints.The only minor issue is moving it around the court ... closer to the net or near the baseline .... depending on how easy or hard I want the balls to come.It’s those times that I wouldn’t mind the machine having it’s own WHEELS.
