FORTRESS Pop-Up Baseball Batting Cage | Backyard Batting & Pitching Practice [20ft, 40ft, 60ft or 80ft Net Length] | Baseball Net for Hitting and Pitching

The media could not be loaded.  So for months I priced netting/batting cage options from expensive solutions to DIY solutions and this cage is the most affordable and well built. I bought 3 cages to have a full 60ft.... which needed some customization. Overall the quality is good. My son and a few members of his high school team practice in it. They can do full pitching and hitting. I may get a pitching machine to complete it. 4 stars because one of the cages poles internal rope was cut when it arrived. I was still able to get the poles together. Also, not easy to install in a tight area. I had to get several screw eye hooks on my house and fence to install. The pics and video was when I had only 2 sections setup.

Ordered this product as a Christmas gift for my daughter in December 2020 but because we live in Connecticut did not erected until May 2021. Product was difficult to erect but eventually got it built and used it successfully for the summer of 2021 approximately 3 1/2 months. In the spring of 2022 we went to set it up again and found the sleeve for the tent poles had deteriorated. This is clearly a manufactures defect for a product that was only used for 3 1/2 months but because the warranty is one year from the date of purchase we were technically four months past the warranty. I called customer service and was told there was nothing they can do about it and a replacement would cost $250 plus $25 shipping more than half the cost of the original item. I tried to explain that The product was only used for one season and living in the northeast of the USA there is no way It could’ve been used more than that. This is a European based company that had a little sympathy for the situation I was told pay the $250 plus shipping will throw the product out. Poorly built product with unresponsive customer service.

My husband and I have been married or 20 years. In that time we have rebuilt 2 houses, renovated 2 others, and lived through the challenges of getting multiple children to and from various activities. Assembling this net nearly sent us to marital counselling!! Not only that, but one of the grommets ripped out before we even had the thing stood up. While technically a "pop-up", this is DEFINITELY NOT something we plan to move anytime soon! Flimsy construction, a nightmare to stand up, and the instructions require a translator. What a pain!

Ok, so 3 stars because: it's nice and does its job, but............. It's flimsy in the wind. I keep hoping it doesn't fly away. So far it handles 20 mph gusts ok but I'm uncertain about 60. I have had to readjust stakes every few days to straighten it out. The netting seams a little light for hard balls. We've been using juggs liteflite balls so far. Not sure I want my 15 yr old pounding hardballs just yet. All in all it is nice and handy. Better than setting posts and putting up the real deal. We'll try hardballs this summer and maybe I'll update my review. I would recommend for any backyard, but consider liteflite balls from juggs. They hit good and will not hurt this net.

The media could not be loaded.  This cage is awesome and works perfectly. It's stable in 20 mph winds. The only thing I recommend is getting tent stakes like the ones in my pictures. Once it's set up all you have to do is flip the 3 tiedown lines off one end and lay it on the ground then next time you want to use it simply pull on the 3 tiedown lines and hook them back on the stakes and your ready to go.

Took some time to get the guy lines set-up but overall a very effective and generally speaking easy to set-up batting cage. We have the 40 foot cage which is 2 of the 20 foot cages connected. We have a 9 year old softball player hitting pitches thrown by a pitching machine and the setup works very well.

I made the mistake of investing in an inexpensive net for my grandson's baseball practice at home. I was dubious when we pulled it out of the bag - it looked flimsy, and required some major stretching just to reach the dimensions it was supposedly designed for. One hit into that other net had me convinced for safety and longevity we needed better quality.I found this fully edged heavy duty net and knew it would work right out of the box. This is quality construction. It is heavy duty. It has enough weight to hang and drape well. It will last for years.This is the kind of net you might find hanging in professional batting cages. Highly recommended!

Great product. Easy to setup. We actually use it for team practice and bring it up before practice and take it down. Well thought out design. Its pricey on the shipping side but worth it.
