Gared Playmaker Toss Back

Rating

I must admit, I was searching for a replacement toss back for my son when I saw this and remembered that I had one of these as a kid myself. I don't remember if it was the same brand or not, but it lasted several years and was very effective, and considering that this was relatively cheap compared to the others I saw online I decided to take the plunge. Shipping was very fast and reasonable. It was obviously something that had been shipped back and forth a lot between stores, and the instructions were very minimal. I had to return to the picture I found online, actually, to put it together. In the end, however, I was able to get it assembled relatively quickly and it looks to be a good purchase thus far. I guess time will tell if it is the same quality and workmanship as my old toss-back ...

Item is fantastic once assembled, and the kids love it! Very happy with purchase. Be forewarned however, that strethcing the bands that hold the net in place requires a high level of strength in arms and hands,

One of the pivot brackets that allow for adjustment of angle snaped off during installation. I had to take it to a welding shop to re-weld the faulty part. The welding was only $10.00 but the hassel was big and the frustration made for an unpleasant experience. This was a birthday present for a grandson, he really liked the product and of course had no idea how much hassle went into making it happen.
