Fun backyard game
Bought a few weeks ago, gave to our son for his 8th birthday, assembled easily enough. Only issue is the metal locking assembly for attaching the ball will not stay closed!!! It seems to have a defect because after every game you have to retighten it closed. It continues to open despite trying different positions and having to screw it closed every 10 minutes or so! Happy with rest of set up but something isn’t right in this important detail!

Teatherball
My daughter wanted this as it reminded her of her days on the playground beating all the kids on teatherball. The whole family has a blast playing with this. It’s secure and very easy to put together.

Great Tetherball Equipment
Bought 2 of these for kids 9-1/2, 6, and 4. They love it! I put together the structure for the ball and it's very rugged and stable..

Tetherball quality not to good
I bought this in November of 2023, and I was surprised to see the cheap plastic ring that holds the rope for the ball, I thought that would be the first thing to break, but it wasn't, the ball was the first thing to come apart from the string, it's only held up by Fabric, I'm actually surprised that it lasted this long before ripping

sturdy but ball strap shreds in mere days
on the one hand, the most sturdy tetherball set of the half-dozen i've ever bought! but on the other, the strap on the ball that attaches it to the cord that attaches to the pole frayed and tore after less than a full week of steady usage

Quality piece and great customer service when needed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love this tether ball game. Someone at my house removed the top part of the tether ball pole to kick the ball around and we never found it. I contacted the company and they are sending me the replacement part. It’s 3 years old so out of warranty but reasonably priced part is being shipped. Excellent quality, excellent customer service.

Great customer service
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When we moved recently I took our tether ball apart to bring to our new home. I lost the hardware to put it back together. Eric from customer service was very helpful and had the parts I needed ship right away. He is making our yellow lab very happy. Thank you very much

Comes disconnected easily
Nice set but for some reason the hook that connects the rope to the pole comes undone easily so I have to reattach it quite frequently. Not as sturdy as I expected either, but overall I am happy with my purchase.

Great customer service
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a new tetherball ball set up. I couldn't find the exact replacement anywhere. I look at reviews on their website about replacement parts. I contacted customer service and a replacement was sent to me free of charge. I bought this set up several years ago and the ball finally timed out. Thank you for the great customer service.

Great option for tetherball!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this tetherball! It works in grass or on our driveway, and holds its own against some pretty competitive games! This is a fun outdoor game for our kids and teens when our yard isn’t quite flat about anywhere for a volleyball net.

Lost Parts
I called to get replacement parts for our Tetherball pole assembly and customer service was fantastic. Professional, efficient and was able to get me the parts before our family reunion this weekend. Thank you so much!

Great service!
We bought this 2 years ago now, and it has been in constant use by our two boys (10-14). Great value for the money, and recently when the strap on the ball wore out from so much heavy use the company sent us a new one without any hassles! Great product and great service.
