Franklin Pet Supply Ready Set Fetch Automatic Tennis Ball Launcher Dog Toy - Authentic Tennis Ball Thrower - Interactive Toy

East we found was the humming puts our dog off from actually approaching the launcher, but if your dog isn't wound up by hoovers, you should be ok. Bear in mind, the condition of the ball will determine the distance and angle of the ball, as you can see on the video. Whereas the weight of the ball will determine the distance, outside of the launch speed and angle of the unit. Although not the distance launcher I was hoping for, it does get to the bottom of my small yard which is around 14meters from launcher to wall. Another point was that my unit came with an American plug, not a problem for me, but it is something buyer's should be mindful of. Lastly, the hopper is quite big, but not convinced it is for stacking more than one ball, as more than one has the potential to get stuck, this could be solved had the tray design incorporated a sorting aspect. That said, we have had a total of 14 balls in the hopper comfortably. When multiple balls are in the hopper, there is a potential for the launcher to launch more than one ball. We found this was down to weight and size of the ball. Lastly, the 'beep' that sounds before the ball is launched is not loud enough when the launcher is on its highest setting, as the sound of the motor drowns it out. It stops working altogether if you are feeding snobbery balls back into the launcher. A good indication of snobbery balls, is when the launch angle/distance drops.

Very good standard tennis ball machine. Unfortunately the plug was a two pin so it wasn’t suitable for use here. It looked very good from the video on the description page and will be great fun for dogs. However we couldn’t use it and it was returned.

Dog loves it

Works for our Big dog that doesn’t know what the word chill means. Taught her how to drop the ball in it & chase it. We sit back & say “Look ma, no hands” 😁 price was ok, delivery was fine. So far so good on the durability part.

We received this item in a battered box, with a return shipping label from a previous customer on it. A return authorization certificate was in the box. The tennis ball and instructions were missing. The motor was so noisy our dog would not go near it. Clearly a returned item was slapped with a new shipping label and sent out. It is going back again. We gave it a try, it did shoot our tennis ball a good distance and I think if we had received the new item we ordered, we probably would have been satisfied and kept it.
