Customer Reviews  Great product I use the UPM45 for batting practice on a modified softball team and the entire team loves it. Its so easy to use and so much fun to hit from. The pitches are about 95% accurate and in the strike zone. Pitches move each time a little so it keeps you honest. Took me about 15 minutes to put together as they make it so simple with all screws, nuts, bolts, already in their place. Just need to unscrew, put part in and screw back in. Came with a screen which i was not expecting so a very pleasant surprise. Now my girlfriend can go the park with me and pitch to me and i don't have to worry about hitting it back up the middle and hurting her.

Customer Reviews  This is an ATTACHMENT to a pitching machine This is an attachment to another Franklin product. Do not by this and expect it to work without already having or purchasing the actual Franklin pitching machine. Also, dimple balls must also be purchased. See more Franklin listings to make sure of the pitching machine for which this attachment is made. Have fun!

Customer Reviews  Nothing is Neater than the Heater! Okay, cheesy headline...but I wanted to combat the "Not so Hot" one...
I purchased the Heater Combo Pitching Machine and an Xtender 30ft Batting Cage from Hookem Sports. I could not be happier! I was looking to put in a batting cage in our backyard for my daughters (4,8,9) to grow up with as they advanced through the levels of fast pitch softball. I chose the Combo so we could start with 11" softballs and move up to 12" as the girls got bigger.
The cage was a little tricky to set up by myself...I'm sure it would have been A LOT easier if I had an extra set of hands to help when installing the netting. But, nonetheless, I was able to get it done by myself, which is saying something as to the ease of setup!
The machine was very easy to get set up, and pitches unbelievably accurately! The whole package is perfect to help build their confidence and to improve their hitting ability. My 9 year old can't stay out of it! They all love it. It will even pitch wiffle balls to my 4 year old!
The machine is basic to use, and feels very safe. Speed adjustment is easy, and it's plenty fast! The speed dial goes to 10...at the 30 ft distance, around level 5 is perfect for my 9 year old. Level 4 is good for the 8 yr old. I fired a few balls through at levels 8,9, and 10...and I think I would have had a tough time hitting the higher levels at that distance. I know this machine and cage will really benefit the girls as they get older, making them quicker and quicker with their bat.
I only hope the machine and cage will last. But even if I have to replace one or both of them after a few years...it's still a bargain compared to what other backyard batting cage setups cost.
Curtis from Hookem Sports was very helpful. He answered several email questions from me quickly and accurately. Plus I feel he gave me a great price that included free shipping (available from most retailers on the Heater), but also a couple dozen Heater dimple balls that really do pitch amazingly straight!

Customer Reviews  Early problems, but it's okay One of the pre-assembled plastic pieces broke on the 13th pitch. I bought a couple dollars worth of bolts and washers and strengthened the piece to sufficiently continue using it. While it does take a little while to dial in, it throws fairly consistent pitches. 4 out of 5 pitches go to roughly the same spot. The variation in baseballs -- older versus newer -- may explain some of the off-target throws.
