iPong V300 Table Tennis Training Robot - Serves 40mm Regulation Ping Pong Balls Automatically - Play Solo w/o Playback Mode on your Ping Pong Table - Various Models Available, Size 19 , Blue

I bought this mainly for my kids so they can play on their own and practice some basic techniques. We have been using it for a couple weeks now and so far I am pretty happy with the purchase. The machine is fairly easily to set up. Once it is set up you will need to learn how to operate the remote. It let you adjust the spin and frequency. I didnt use the oscillation feature much yet but it does work. The hopper holds about 60 to 70 balls. The lowest frequency setting gives you about a 3 minute session. The max frequency actually gets quite fun. It shoots the balls out really fast and it is fun to see the kids try to hit as many as possible. The only thing I didnt like about the machine is its consistency. The first ball always land in the wrong spot and shoot off the table for some reasons. The balls afterward land roughly in the same spot, maybe within a 3in diameter circle. I just wish the landing would get closer to 1 inch so it is more accurate for practice purpose. All in all it is a great price and a great product.

As an X professional table tennis player I wanted to try this for my son BUT this product should not be in the market period!!, WHY? because it takes the energy and motivation and FUN out of any beginner or intermediate player, it jams continuously and it takes the fun AWAY!!!, this machine needs a lot of upgrading and attention, don’t know why it is still in the market. If I had a ZERO star I would have given it.

Just received my iPong V300 last week. The assembly was very easy and straight forward. I did follow suggestion from some customers and put a smooth tape on the motor top to reduce friction force from the pressure, and I loaded 120 balls and the robot never jammed even once. It worked very smoothly, it can produce topspin, backspin, with different speed, and can oscillate from left to right. Love the remote. It was fun to play and the kids love it too. Compared to some other more advanced products that could easily cost $600 to $2500, this iPong V300 is really a bargain, and it's amazing that the robot can do most of the work, more than enough training for the beginners and mid-level players, for only $119. I'm very satisfied about the product. If you are a pro or advanced player, then spend $2000 to get a sophisticated robot model, otherwise, if you are beginners or mid-level players to play for fun, then this iPong V300 is an excellent choice for you. Highly recommend !

The first few dates with someone can be clunky and that's how iPong and I started out. She was mean to me right out of the gate - she spit that first ball at me like I made her pay for dinner. All kidding aside, read the instructions on this. I messed up initially because I j just poured all of the balls into the funnel without starting it up FIRSt. Nothing came out, it jammed. I then read some reviews online and found out that you are supposed to start it up first, get the wheel running, then add the balls, THEN press play once you're in position. Once I did that, it was fine. But, as I said above, the first ball usually comes out like straight fire and doesn't even hit the table but after that, it's fine. It also doesn't spit every ball out, every time but I can live with that. One thing that is annoying but obviously no fault of the product, is hitting the machine with your shots. The balls then ricochet all over the garage so make sure that you are placing your shots on either side of the iPong. I also bought a net to put on the table but the first couple of rounds, due to poor placement of my shots, more balls went off the table than on because I keep hitting the machine. So far the remote works fine. Down the road as I get better and can afford it, I will probably buy a nicer one. But for my skill level - intermediate - this one works fine for the price. I recommend it but make sure you are prepared for her fastball right away.

This thing is great. After the photo and some adjusting we actually moved it to the other side bc he should return to that corner where it was. The thing is a work horse. Came with agitator in place. Loaded it up and non stop fun. Barely ever jams and when it does easy fix. Just don’t load it with spider webbed balls if playing in basement! My seven year old is an addict. He has played non stop Solo for two days now. Got bless! I got a break! The remote could have a better range but he doesn’t care. I start him and he literally plays for hours. He loads 40 or so balls at once. Any more and it slows down and maybe jams. He pauses it to reload but doesn’t get all the other functions and that is fine. Pause and unpause are all he needs for hours of no parent fun. I am really impressed. If the balls go in the deep dark corners of the basement make sure the kids de spider web them and it won’t jam. Others said about jamming but as long as you don’t line up the agitator hole in start with main hole and the kids don’t add webs and gunk attached to the balls it works amazingly well. I upped its power and it is super strong. May not work with a net of you want a true test of its powers... it would need to be on a stool behind the table. Great little robot for the price and I love it bc it has given me a break from him begging to play and he can work it solo. It is a gem. So happy. He got the net and the robot for Christmas and is over the moon. No disappointment. Kudos!!

It works well enough, but it still sometimes jams, and then suddenly 3 balls just fall out. Sometimes when you set it to oscillate, it decides that it doesn't feel like oscillating, until it suddenly does. The trajectory is also pretty inconsistent. Sometimes it clips the net, sometimes it hits close to the back of the table, sometimes it hits just fine. It's also a little weird having to adjust the back/top spin together. For example, if you want just a regular shot, you have to set back and top spin to the same speed, and how high you set both of those determines how fast the ball will shoot out. Anything below 3/3 won't clear the net unless you push the machine closer to the net. However, it does work well, and once you figure out the quirks, it becomes great for practicing. I do not regret my purchase, especially considering what other similar machines on the market cost.

So far, I love this robot. The assembly was quick and easy, and the instructions very clear, it takes about 5-7 minutes from unboxing to play. The only inconvenient (minor though, in my opinion) is that the display on the remote does not show the numbers for the spin, oscillation etc. levels. They show on the robot display anyway, so it's not really an impediment. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this machine, and the quality of the instructions. With several other products you need a magnifying glass to read the instructions printed on papers the size of a business card, but this one has comprehensive instructions and pictures printed on glossy paper. First time I used it it was supposed to be a quick try, but I ended up playing for a whole hour. It was shooting faster than I expected, even on the lowest settings, but I got used to it quickly. For a beginner like me, this is the perfect robot.

a lot!! Motor stopped working after a month. Another good design ruined by cheap Chinese manufacturing.
