Tennis Rebounder Net – Multi Racket Sports Trainer for Tennis, Pickleball, Padel, Squash & Racquetball – Quick Assembly, Portable with Carry Bag

There are so many great things to say about the Ksports Tennis Rebounder Net that it's hard to list all of its attributes. First of all it fills a genuine need for affordable, repeatable, and realistic training for tennis players of all levels. For beginners, it introduces the concepts of ball tracking, eye-hand coordination, proper racket grip, racket face contact, racket sweet spot feel, shot rhythm/timing, shot aim, and confidence. For intermediate players, it is fantastic for proper stroke form, forehand to backhand transition, topspin, follow through, accelerating the racket through the ball, and gradual ramping up of power. For advanced players, it's great for practicing full power shots while maintaining accuracy, feel for finesse drop shots and slices, consistency and focus, warm up before matches, experimenting with subtle changes in grip or technique, and aerobic fitness (you can work up a good sweat by alternating forehand and back hand with power). For coaches, schools, and tennis training facilities, the player can be observed or videoed close by from all angles as the ball self-feeds freeing the coach to examine the player rather than feed balls from afar, less time picking up or tripping over dozens of scattered balls (you really only need one at a time), immediate feedback on what feels and sounds like good strokes, and the muscle memory gained from hundreds of good ball strikes per training session. The product is designed very well with the net absorbing the energy of full-power tennis shots, adjustable net tension for different racket sports, easy no-tool snap-together assembly, sturdy yet light weight frame, reinforcement by the tension of the net itself, adjustable pivoting rebound plank for tuning of return height and speed, and portability if disassembled. This rebounder is superior to the alternatives. There are some other more expensive training devices out there that are not nearly as dynamic and realistic, can damage your racket strings with miss hits, and will quickly wear out over time. If you try practicing against a solid vertical brick wall, the return ball becomes more and more difficult to handle once you add power and topspin, thus limiting improvement. However, with this rebounder device the ball returns in a controlled manner like a very patient and expensive tennis coach is feeding you balls. As the ball rolls down the net it gains topspin, thus simulating the most common spin you will have to deal with on the court. My favorite drill is alternating 2 forehand shots, 2 backhand shots, 2 forehand shots, etc, etc with the first shot at moderate pace with a focus on accuracy, and the second shot a full power game winner shot with full follow through (i.e. ripping it!). The first evening I had this rebounder, I was already returning 50 shots in a row with improved consistency, improved form, better topspin, and more smooth power. I feel like I am getting a lot out of each practice session with up to hundreds of good strikes to train eye-hand coordination and ingrain muscle memory, perhaps an even better training experience than playing against a poorly matched opponent on the court. I mainly use it first bounce off the plank to fit one end of my basement gym where it doesn't require much room. If you use it outdoors, it is rather light so in breezy conditions you might have to sandbag the base and/or zip tie the top to a fence. It is possible that it could be used as an outdoor target for practicing your serve. Although you can certainly use official regulation tennis balls, I prefer softer (orange and yellow marked) junior training balls because they compress more and thus make a loud popping sound with a sweet-spot full-power strike (good auditory feedback), it's easier to observe induced topspin backspin and side spin, they don't wear out as fast since they are already "dead", and for long training sessions with hundreds of powerful strikes the softer tennis balls are less likely to result in overuse injury, such as the dreaded tennis elbow. If you have the rebounder set up on a slick tile surface, one inch strips of Velcro applied to the floor behind each front foot will prevent it from walking back with powerful shots and also mark its optimal position should you need to move it for any reason. The center of the net should either be flat or concave (adjusting the included elastic cords). If the center is too taut and there is a speed bump hump, power shots could deflect over the back stop, so a little center slack is best. The angle of the net is not pivot adjustable (which helps keep it sturdy). I experimented with propping up the back feet of the base on 1-1/2" wooden blocks to increase return speed and it remained stable, but I decided that the stock net angle was already very well-optimized. Mine came with 6" vertical extensions to raise the height which I have so far not needed to install, but would add second bounce height from the floor. Customer service has been very responsive. The value is incredible for the amount of tennis skill, ball speed, accuracy, topspin, confidence, and consistency I have gained in a short period of time.

I bought the Ksports Tennis Rebounder Net to sharpen my strokes without needing a hitting partner— and it delivers. Setup was quick (under 10 minutes, no tools needed), and the carry bag makes it easy to transport. The rebound action is consistent, and I love that it supports multiple racket sports like pickleball and squash. The adjustable height extensions are a nice touch for mixing up drills, and it handles up to 30 shots per minute, which keeps the pace lively. That said, it can wobble a bit in windy conditions, and it takes up more space than expected—so make sure you’ve got a decent-sized area to work with. Overall, it’s a good investment for solo practice.

I needed something to help me practice tennis and pickleball during the hot Texas summer months. I was a little doubtful at first about this rebounder when a relative suggested it to me, but was I pleasantly surprised!! Now, I am able to fine tune my groundstrokes and dinks at any time of the day and as frequently as I want at home. Although, It does work great with a real tennis or pickle ball, I have elected to use a foam ball for less noise and less chance of a mishit breaking something indoors. I have attached a video to show how hard you can hit the ball and it will always return to you at a constant speed. You can adjust the straps and the bounce board to vary the pace and height of the return. I can definitely see myself using this long term for a nice workout. After using for many months, I would like to add that taking this thing apart and putting it together has become quite easy once you are used to it. I put all the parts in the carry bag they provide and transport to wherever I’m going to practice tennis at anytime. You eventually figure out how to strap, angle and tighten certain areas to vary speed of ball and bounce. For example, I completely take off the strap at point B for it to sag in the middle to prevent the ball from flying off when I’m practicing my serve. I can also angle the tarp from point C to D by strapping under the bar at C and over the bar at D. This slight angle will make the ball stay there longer at top, slowing return of the ball. Play around with it and you will find the right settings for you.

I bought one and set it up at home for practice. I play tennis, pickle ball and padel. They all can be played with this rebounder. It’s easy to put together. The only issue will be if you don’t control the ball well this may be too narrow for you. I put curtains behind it so that it won’t hit the window directly. Sometimes the ball flies off and knock down stuff lol… so it’s better to set up in an area with less furniture and wall decorations. For learners, it’s better to put it in a separate room, the garage or basement, or in your yard with high nets around. You don’t want it fly out and break house/car window glasses. During summer times, I think it’s great to carry it out for camping and have some fun under the sun. You don’t need a hard surface. The rebounder plate will catch the ball and send it back to you.

This rebounder was easy to assemble, except for on crimped tube end that needed to be opened up with a pair of plyers to get it to fit together with the other tubes. Once assembled and adjusted to ensure proper rebounding, it works great i my basement. I use it everyday to practice my swing and familiarized myself with new paddles before taking them to the court. It is light weight, but since I use it with pickleball paddles and balls there is no issue with it not being sturdy enough for this task. I can do hard serves or drives as well as practice dinking, and everything in between with is rebounder. All-in-all I consider this an excellent purchase.

I came across this product quite by chance and wondered how it would work for so many racket sports. I strapped it on for a long duration between shots while playing tennis and was quite impressed. I was able to hit shots with considerable power, and the ball consistently returned at a good height, allowing me to prepare for the next shot. It's also fun to alternate shots with someone else. I’m looking forward to trying it with table tennis, pickleball, and other racket sports.

Very easy to assemble and well made. Works surprisingly well for hitting forehands and backhands. Allows you to hit the ball really hard and ball consistently drops back down for next shot. So far I have used it outdoors but in the winter I will use it inside.

Great for home tennis training! Used ladder to do the net hanging. There might be other ways to do it?
