Gamma Sports Tennis Ballhoppers - Multiple Styles and Colors - Durable, Convenient, Heavy Duty Construction, for Easy Pickup, Carrying and Storage - 50 to 140 Tennis Ball Capacity

Although the concept behind this design is very simple, the leg locks used in it are not thick enough to prevent the legs from spreading apart and collapsing. It is critical for plastic leg locks to have a diameter of at least 1/8" for proper locking. There is thicker plastic tubing I could use at the hardware store to make the locking more effective, but I wouldn't do that for a brand new item that I just bought. The locking design simply does not work, so it is not worth going through the trouble of ordering.

HOLDS 75 BALLS BUT NOT! Nevertheless, it doesn't disappoint as a I purchased the Hi-Def camera In place of my Pro Plus 110 (both Gamma) I purchased the Rise 75 because I needed a basket that could hold a case of balls (24 dozen/72 balls) without the size and weight of the 110 (which I have been using With my previous 110, I have had consistent quality and performance, especially with the additional Gamma EZ-Exit (2 sets) of Go wheels. This basket was ideal for me because I enjoyed the convenience of completely removing the lid (every time) so it wouldn't flake around while I was driving, and I could store the basket in the trunk on its side without the balls I'm hitting with a little more power and more top spin and my machine balls don't last as long as they used to. Rather than buy and use 1, you can use 2. A total of 5 cases of M. tuberculosis Since I don't need 72 Xs ($145 per 72/ $2 a ball) every 4 months, I will just order one case of 72 each time. As my $20 Wilson 75's leg bent (a cheap metal) after a few months, I decided to go with the trusted Gamma brand. When I received the Hi-Power I was extremely happy with it. It was immediately obvious that it was much smaller than the Wilson when I ascended to 75 feet. In order to see if it would generally hold, I decided to attempt the Micro-case first It turned out to be exactly as suspected Despite the lid being closed, the container was barely big enough to hold 65 balls! Whether I tried to fit 70 balls (as shown in the picture) or not, the balls would start to pop out of the sides and cause the lid to If you have to lay the basket of balls on its side to store them in the trunk, that's not something you want to do! Now it is time to go back to Amazon. I still gave it 3 stars for this reason. It also has a much stronger, better built, and sturdier handle. I also like that I can remove the lid for cleaning. The hopper is heavier than the Wilson, but it's sturdier, stronger, and better built. It is possible to tighten the wires with a pair of pliers if this is an issue (I do the opposite to allow Rolling the hopper around is eased when it is flat on the ground by the rollers on the bottom but can also be removed (or not) for a pair (or in my case two pairs) of wheels that roll the hopper around when it is As far as standing the basket, I also like that the legs use friction instead of actual clips. This makes a big difference against the Wilson, which uses tiny hooks that get caught on things and need to be individually The problem is especially frustrating when you have just finished a serving session, have a racket in one hand, and try to collapse the basket with the other hand. During operation, I have never had the problem of a ball hopper not standing up and staying up (I do not clip all the legs of the Wilson, just one on one side). Yes, the sticker with the name is cheaply made, in which case I used Goof-Off to replace it Off and remove it (I did this on my 110 and my 50 (yes, I also have a 50)). On the included pick, you can see how my old 110 looks with the wheels. In the center, you can see my high-powered 110 It is 75 inches high, topped by 70 balls without a Here is a picture of the Wilson 75 closed with its lid closed and 70+ tennis balls inside. When you look closely at the bottom of the Wilson, you can see the hooks that lock the legs into Among the zip ties you can see are those that I use to keep the legs from slipping Earlier (today actually), I switched from zip ties to safety wire on the 110 to make it more permanent, so the zip ties on the back leg are missing.

The first time I used this product, I was blown away by its quality. I like that it is the perfect size, so you don't have to extend your arm to avoid hitting your leg when picking up the ball. I was using it a couple of times a week for months before the handles separated, so now I have to find a way to be able to solder, weld, glue, or wire them together again. I know someone who has the exact same product and was experiencing It's necessary for the manufacturer to figure out a way to weld the two sides together and then put a plastic tube over them for the handle, as what they're currently doing won't do.

It seems like the legs are falling off all the time. As a result, I had to duct tape the legs together to guarantee sufficient compression so that when I flip the legs from their holding position to their standing position, they don't come When your tennis balls end up falling out because the legs fall off, the top falls off, and you have balls all over your house, it can be quite frustrating. There is a difference between Gamma and the quality I have grown accustomed to.

Purchased this item once and would not purchase it There are shoddy construction methods and materials everywhere. My first attempt to use the hopper ended in a failure. There are two welds on the cross Basically, the hopper became useless after a piece of one of the legs gave way. As I was living in Canada and ordering it from the US (didn't want to deal with the hassle), I chose to have the item repaired rather than return it. After wrapping the joint with wire and using a 2-inch screw, I was able to close the joint A hell of a lot of epoxy will be needed to coat It was then necessary to bash the leg into a new shape so that it would still lock when standing However, it is still usable now that it looks ugly. The rolling rods on the bottom are also flimsy (it is easy for the balls to pop into the basket since they are so thin). I have to manually straighten them at least once every time I use the hopper because they bend out of shape, allowing balls to fall back out. This is my first hopper, therefore I cannot compare it to anything else, but generally I am not impressed. I would not purchase this product.

A basic explanation is all you need. As a result, the plastic rolls supposed to hold the legs in place are not large enough for locking the legs together. As it is, the basket would collapse under the weight if I had not taped them down to provide the necessary.

The price was very good and it was exactly what I wanted. If I tried serving 75 balls in a row, I would most likely be on ice for a couple hours. But the 50 balls are light and easy to swing from side to side picking up balls on each side. The legs lock into position so you don't have to bend forward. As a bonus
Locations in the legs are locked in so that the chair is unable to be bent over.
This chair is equipped with extra plastic tubes in case I am able to store the basket and all of the balls on their side in my cabinet because the top of the basket locks into place. The drawbacks are If your tennis balls have lost their pressure and become old, they may squeeze out on the side or bottom as more balls are on top of them. It is unclear whether the basket is to blame.

You can get it essentially for half price if you order stainless steel. You don't need any color to order this model. Putting it together is easy (do it right or the handles will Take the time to read each step You can pick up balls easily with it, and you can carry it easily as well. I'm very happy with the purchase, it looks very.
