One of the best ways to practice tennis is to use a ball machine, but these can be expensive. If you have your own home court, or you play at a public court system where there isn’t a ball machine on site, buying your own is an option that many people consider. Now, thanks to Lobster, it is possible to get your own ball machine without breaking the bank.

We found that this was easily one of the best ball machines we have ever used and it’s comparable with the ones you would find at a professional tennis court. If you have never practiced with one of these machines before, hold on to your hat! It’s a great way to mimic the speed and power of an actual opponent and you can get quite a lot out of using one.

Sure, you can always hit a ball against the wall, but if you want a real life simulation, this is one of the best solutions you can try. The price is middle of the road and it shouldn’t be too hard to save up for it, even if you are on a budget.

Our favorite feature of this machine was that it was incredibly easy to set up. You won’t need to spend hours trying to figure out how everything works and the manufacturer made sure to include instructions you can actually follow. The fact that it runs on one single battery makes it easier to transport, and the machine is a lot lighter than it looks.

We found it very durable and it held up to a variety of our different tests. We were very surprised to find a machine of this quality at this price point, and we liked the ability to change up the speeds, just like you would if you were playing a real person. For those that don’t have any friends that play tennis, this is a great way to get in some real practice sessions, anytime you want. One of the best bargains we have come across in a long time.

Manufacturer Specifications:

* Tennis accessory operates on a single battery
* Tennis machine sweeps randomly left to right horizontally and oscillates vertically
* Speeds of up to 80 miles per hour challenge your ability to react with thinking
* Designed for maximum durability, its 44-pound ergonomic design and oversized-
wheels allow for easy transport, even with a full hopper of 150 balls
* 4 to 8-hour battery helps ensure plenty of court time between recharges

We recommend this machine to players that need that extra edge. If you’ve got your own court at home or nearby, the machine is small enough to take with you and it still packs a powerful punch. It’s always nice to have your own equipment and this one is really a great deal when you consider the amount of features it has and the ability to get a true to life practice session.
