Pros:
- great if you have an only child as they can play alone, practice hand eye coordination, try to hit it as long as they can etc,
- great for yourself to do while listening to a podcast or on a long call where you dont have to be on video. It's meditative to keep hitting the ball for as long as you can
- good 5 min exercise break if you live in a 600sq ft apt and spend too many hrs sitting in front of a screen for work.
- great idea overall that a 10 yr old created it for his autistic sister.
- you dont have to chase that ball that rolled under your bed
- adjustable string length is helpful for small kids
Cons:
- as some folks noted, it is cheaply made plastic and can break easily (mine is still good). they should have sent in 3-4 extra balls as ping pong balls in general break easily.
- wooden paddles may be better than plastic (plastic is loud). i switched it out w my old wooden paddles and it is less noisy and much nicer tick-tock sound
overall great concept but could use a little more sprucing up or drop the price by $5-10 as I do not see this lasting very long..hope it will last till end of pandemic.
