Lifetime Outdoor Games Set with Paddles, 90421

We have played lots of pickleball with this set.

We bought this set for my kids for Easter. We have a large 35 x 40 concrete basketball pad that we poured a few years ago and the kids spend a ton of time playing different games on it. This is a great addition to it. My 12 year old son put it completely together (although it was only a few steps) in 20 minutes. The net is not super tight from top to bottom, but the balls seem to still bounce off it and it is good for a portable set. There is elastic rope that ties the net to the poles which helps with the tightness. It may need to be tied down for a wild game of volleyball, but it will be fine for pickle ball, badminton and tennis. The telescoping poles make it super easy to move up and down for the different games. I was surprised by the birdies. They are not the regular cheap kind. They are larger and much more detailed than the ones I have ever seen and I think they will hold up much better than the cheap plastic ones. I am a little worried about using the wooden paddles with the birdies so we may have to purchase badminton racquets. We filled the bases with water and they seem to work great. I am also excited about how portable it is. They recently painted pickle ball lines on the basketball court at our local church, but they don't have any nets yet. We can easily take this net to the church to play on a real painted court. Overall, I am very pleased. My kids were out playing in the dark last night and loving it.

All of the components are great quality, and it comes with everything you need to play. The only con is that the net can't be adjusted from badminton height to volleyball height without changing the configuration of the poles (you can see it in the picture, I just didn't pay enough attention). You don't use the base for the volleyball net, you have to use the ropes to keep the poles up. But I would still buy it again! It is a very nice set.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We just got this volleyball set and couldn't wait to play. My husband set it up in about 10 minutes with no problems. We didn't fill the bases with water, as is suggested, but they seemed to stay in place just fine for our needs with little ones playing. We love the options with this set. I love that we can have the net down low (even for playing volleyball) so that my 6 and 4 year olds can be successful. When we have adults over to play, we can put it up to the regular height. Definite win with this set. Thank you, Lifetime!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received this set and immediately wanted to set it up. It has lots of options for both children and adults. My kids love the pickle ball and badminton. I love the volleyball. Hours of outdoor fun. It is not hard at all to set up. I love the Lifetime products and the warranty. I would definitely recommend this activity to anyone.
