Awesome rebounder, super easy to assemble
By Jon S on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2023
I purchased this for my son for lacrosse who outgrew our old cheap baseball pitchback (which worked fine when he was younger but now that he's 10 we needed something stronger). Knowing EZGoal from hockey, I knew they'd be a good choice. This rebounder is SOLID, all thick pipes and some strong netting and bungees. After reading many reviews I was not looking forward to the assembly, in particular the part where you attach the net. But once I jumped in I realized it was a lot simpler than everyone made it out to be. The hardest part was figuring out the spacing for the bungees (and realizing there are 2 spares you're not supposed to use). Once I had them all in place I attached each corner, then the middle (middle one side and then middle the other so it was stretched evenly, then middle on top/middle on bottom), then just kept attaching the middle of what was left until it was all done, no special tools required and not a ton of muscle either. All in all I'd say assembly start to finish takes about an hour if you take your time and stop for lunch in the middle, definitely not the nightmare some made it out to be.

Manufacturing defect alert!!!
By MommaCX3 ☀️❤️ on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2018
Unfortunately the throwback arrived with a defect that should’ve been caught by quality control. One of the poles that you insert another pole into was improperly formed. The item was perfectly packed so it was not damaged in shipping and, though you cannot tell in the video, the metal is THICK. There is no way it could’ve been bent that way without some sign of damage. So unfortunately we could not assemble the product. My husband called for a replacement item and the customer service agent (Victoria) was rude and condescending. It’s too bad because otherwise this item is nice. But you cannot use it/assemble it as it was sent to us. We contacted the company Friday afternoon but they were closed so we had to wait until Monday. They refused to send us the part and insisted it had to be a shipping issue and told us it was out of their hands and to deal with Amazon (NOTE: The material that comes in the package indicates you should contact them with issues which is why we didn’t follow up with Amazon from the start). When the company would not help us we had to contact Amazon for help. The item had to be disassembled (partially assembled up until the point when he discovered the pole issue) and then re-packaged for pick up. You can imagine not only the hassle of fitting everything back in the box but also the utter disappointment for my kids in having to send it back. The instructions are terrible. Other than that it is a well made item. I wish the company would’ve handled the issue better and come to a resolution with us. Now we are still waiting on a replacement.
