  Works great once you figure it out May 1, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Another coach I worked with used one of these. I liked it, so I bought my own. I'm past the half-way mark on the second season of using this with a Little League team, and I'm very happy with it.
Like with other "pop-up" type products, there's a trick to getting it to fold up. I've found it works best if you lay it on the ground, then fold the bottom-left corner up to the top-right. Two loops form to the sides. Grab those, and gently guide them back into a circle.
If you force it, you can twist the bars inside, and undoing that could be a hassle. But, done right, it folds up fast. I use this for soft-toss in the outfield right before a game, and I can fold it up and get it into the bag in about a minute.
The only downside I have noticed, which is why this gets 4 stars and not 5, is that the zipper on the bag on both models I've seen has broken. It's not that big of a deal, because the bag comes with velcro straps to close it up, which work good enough.
I now keep this net in the trunk of my car, and use it at every practice and game - I've probably used it over 100 times. Recommended.
  Horrible Product January 10, 2006 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I purchased this product based on the claim that it is portable and the ease to fold down and store. The first time I used it it took me nearly 20 minutes to get it to fold up and store away. There were many occasions where I was unable to get it to fold up at all, and ended up just leaving it outdoors. If you leave it folded too long the frame starts to get distorted. A major disappointment....
