Customer Reviews
Great deal for a small price
I think this is a great set for novice badminton players. It's easy to set up, even for the "mechanically challenged". The only thing you're going to want to do eventually, is get sturdier shuttlecocks. These won't stand up to the limitless power of 7 and 4 year old boys for very long!
Get what you pay for
After reading the good reviews I purchased this set, thinking I might actaully get a decent set for a cheap price... WRONG. I got a junk set for a cheap price. One of the metal poles bent while I was setting up the net, under the slight pressure of tightening the guide-wires. This was quite upsetting, but I managed to at least get the net up with the help of some duct tape. After maybe an hour of use by a group of 10 year old girls, the net collapsed for the third and final time, and nobody had the patience to engage in the balancing act of setting it up again, so we just threw the thing away. One star for the cheap price and one star because the rackets and shuttle-cocks werr fine. Pay a few bucks more and get something that you can use more than once.
Just Ok
After reading the reviews on this item I decided it was a good deal. It did arrive quickly. I thought metal poles would be better than PVC as what I had read on PVC poles indicated they were not very good. When we set up the net one of the metal poles folded over on itself. The poles have to be tied down pretty well/tight to keep it up-right, and also to keep the net from sagging. I ended up putting duct tape around the joints to make it steadier. I contacted the company via Email a couple weeks ago about the pole, but have not had a response back. Although, we have had a lot of fun playing, I can't say that I would buy this again.
It's a pretty good deal!
I cant really complain about the product. It's a very good deal and it doesn't have any defects. The rackets are ok for recreational badminton. I suggest buying new shuttlecocks if you're playing regularly. They don't last very long. Other than that, Im 100% satisfied with the product.
May not be the best, but good enough for the price
It may not be the best in terms of quality but it works out well if you keep the cost in mind. I couldnt have got a better product in this price.
