Park & Sun Sports Spiker Sport: Portable

* 6/21/2017 Update *I have further downgraded my review. After only 2 outings with this net it has already ripped along the bottom where the net loops around the poles. It is terrible quality and never provided any sort of tension at all. I can't recommend this net to anyone. Granted my expectations were too high, but this won't stand up to normal use. One very good serve actually brought the whole net down. I feel like I threw my money away because I have only used it twice, and probably won't ever use it again. I could run a rope through the bottom of the net and tie it to the poles if I really wanted to keep using it. The only circumstances in which someone should buy this is if they want a net for their kids ages 8-12, this is absolutely not for adult use.(Original Review below)To be fair, the net comes exactly as described and set's up just like the pictures. So as far as delivering the product that was promoted, Park & Sun did just fine with this basic entry level net. I really wanted a nice net and was going to buy a super quality stand alone net and then build the rest of the components myself...but eventually decided on this set because of the high reviews. For the price, I really shouldn't complain.However here are my observations:- This sets up with 3 connecting pole segments (not a telescoping pole) which are 1 1/2'' in diameter so they aren't super strong or heavy which in my opinion isn't a great thing.- The net itself is very light, and only really stays taught at the top when there is enough tension from the poles.- As indicated in the pictures there is no way to actually keep the net straight (no wooden dowels) or tight (it literally just loops around the poles) without additional ties or bungees. However I am hesitant to even use those because the Net is just too weak to put too much strain on it and I think if you pulled it too tight it wouldn't hold up. What that means basically is that the net is loose, particularly at the bottom, and will not bounce back a ball without much force. If a ball is knocked into the lower section of the net it will most likely just kind of fall down or even push through rather than meeting much resistance.- The ropes to fasten and keep the poles aright are very simple without any adjustments or ability to tighten them.- There isn't any quick adjusting for the height of the net, the top of the net clips into the top of the pole. If you want a lower net you have to move down the eyebolts and then I suppose loop the top of the net above that so it doesn't slide down.- The air pump and ball packed with it are a total jokeI was a bit disappointed with this when i opened and set it up because it's just so basic and not great quality at all. The pros are the price. You get what you pay for, it's very cheap, and I wouldn't expect this to hold up to a ton of rough use. But it's a net, it's official size, it sets up fairly quickly, and for light use and people who want to practice it will work just fine.
