Love this hopper. A must have and a real back-saver. Solid design yet light even when full.

This is a must have for those with a ball machine or anyone practicing. I like the dual position design and the ability to use the hopper in the standing position, however it is top heavy and can tip over easily.
Works great October 15, 2009

I am very happy with this purchase! Just set the basket on top of the ball and it squeezes though the bars and ends up in the basket. Simple design but very effective.
 Okay for casual use August 14, 2009

First off, we bought two of these because of price, size, and look. They are cavernous and hold a lot of balls. For the occasional player that may use it a couple times a week, emptying and filling the hopper a couple times each use I am sure that this hopper would hold up.
Unfortunately we use these every day, and fill and empty the hoppers at least 20 time a day since my wife teaches lessons. Here are the major drawbacks:
1) The nuts come loose very easily and will rattle off and get lost regularly. This requires constant attention so as to assure that the nuts remain in place and tight. I finally bought some thread lock to prevent this, but it was still frustrating to have to purchase something else to make these hoppers functional.
2) The welds that hold the leg holders to the basket are very weak and WILL break. Quite frustrating that after 2 months of use one of these is unusable.
3) There are 2 clips per leg to keep the hopper from tipping over, or the legs slipping on the ground. These are nice, but because the clips are too close together for the legs it is only practical and convenient to use only one of them for each leg. Trying to force the legs into place is very inconvenient.
Overall I would not buy this product again. Nice, but for the amount of times we use it, it is not rugged enough.
