Well built value
Excellent quality. Very large throwing surface. Adjustable spring tension and angle of rebound. One strong person can move but it is a bit awkward. With two people it's cake.

Solid rebounder
When I was a kid they didn't have rebounders like this, so my dad built a giant wooden wall. The wall worked great, although over time dead spots would appear due to wood movement, etc. This thing is great, though there are a few drawbacks.- Return speed is almost always a little slow. With a hard wall (wood, concrete) the returning velocity on a hard pass is almost reciprocal. The rebounder absorbs a lot of the energy, meaning practicing stuff like fast quick sticking can be more difficult (you have to throw HARD for a fast return)- The design means it can't really work as a "goal". There's a target in the middle to practice accuracy, but unlike a rebounder that goes all the way to the ground you can practice and rebound low shots (underhand rollers, bounce shots, etc). Its best application is passing and shooting accuracy.Overall I think this thing is great for the price, and it's especially useful for newer players who just need a rebounder to send throws back at a catchable speed. Assembly was straightforward though a little time consuming.One recommendation that will shorten assembly time is to just throw out the black canvas "back" for the net. It fit pretty loose on ours, snapped around making noise when we threw against it, and would serve as a parachute in the wind (causing the rebounder to flip over). There's really no reason for it unless you have some vision problem that requires an entirely black background for the white ball. We took it off and it hasn't moved, works perfectly.

Great lacrosse throwback
Purchased this for my children so they would have enough throwback space to both use it at the same time.Picture does not fair well on the true size of this. This throwback is big enough for two kids to use at once but is also taller than expected.Throwback is not easy to assemble; you need at least 2 people especially when putting the net on. Heck if you can get 4 people it would make it go quicker.Folding the throwback is not hard but you need 2 people so both safety pins can be disengaged at once. This is a pain as trying to get a child help fold something sometimes does not happen easily.Once folded, item is not difficult to carry by one person. It is lighter than it looks.Big negative is that the pictures are a little deceiving. I thought the part the ball hits would have a black covering; no that is a backdrop used and provided in the pictures. The throwback itself is a black see though net and not a flat black surface. Not a deal breaker but wish the company made it more clear. This is the main reason I am giving a 4 star rating.

Best to have 2 , 3 people to help assemble. Even better if one of them is an Avenger
We've had this all of two days. Boys are having a great time with it, but I'll just say my complaint is in the assembly. Instructions were not intuitive, and we could find no videos on how to actually assemble the mammoth sized item. Basically we just scoured the reviews for customer images and tried to reverse engineer the best way to do this. The pieces of paper (aka "directions") included were not enough (at least they weren't for me, but I'm not an engineer so maybe that's why). Also, connecting the bungees was all but impossible, unless you have a Hulk or Captain America living in your home. I'll assume, since this is athletic equipment, that someone strong lives with you. This is the person you need to have help you. Because it takes Herculean strength to pull the bungees and wrap them around the frame. For the love....I'm not kidding. It was insane. My 16 year old son, who lifts weights and is uber fit really struggled. In fact, it would have been impossible except that I remembered that we had a tool in our garage that we had once used to pull springs when assembling our trampoline. Once we got this out, then the process went better. Still very hard, but got easier the more bungees were connected. Now that that is over, we are loving it. Good product now that it's together, but consider yourself warned.

It's big, but it's a bear!
I've bought thousands of things on Amazon and have never taken the time to review one. I thought that writing a review for this could help some future buyers. First off, I wouldn't hesitate to buy this product again! Well manufactured, and super easy to assemble...UNTIL UNTIL YOU GET TO THE NET! The net is a bear to put on. But, with a little bit of advice it's manageable. When purchasing this, I would highly recommend buying a "Trampoline Spring Pull Tool". You will thank me later! Putting the net on is similar to putting a trampoline together. If you have never done that: 1) Start by attaching the four corners of the net. 2) begin alternating attaching the cords one by one. Attach one on the top, then one on the bottom, then one on the left, then one on the right. 3) Keep alternating like this until all of the cords are attached. Attaching the net was definitely a two person job! In fact, we got a little creative and used a ratchet strap to assist us.Although putting the net on was difficult, the price of this product is great for the quality of the product!!!! Oh, and the picture of the guy standing next to it is to scale. This thing is huge!!!!
