PONGBOT Table Tennis Robot Ping Pong Machine with Remote, APP Control, 264 Pre-Saved Training Drills, Customize Spin, Frequency, Ball Speed, Rotation Intensity, Landing, Height

Good product with variety of functions Easy to set up and start immediately

Excellent - easy to set up, lots of options. Very happy

Really really good. Would definitely recommend it but 3 issues to be aware of: 1) remote control useless 2) the app works on the phone fine BUT short distance only: eg 2-3 metres 3) importing new custom drills is a real challenge (one I haven’t solved yet); that said, there’s lots of drills available and side spin can easily be achieved by rotating the head Very good for the money

Really quick to set up. I love the preprogrammed drills and they are easy to control with your phone (the remote is a waste of space). These drills don't generate as much backspin as other robots in this price range but maybe this limitation can be overcome with custom drills. Updated: There is now a library of user submitted custom drills that can be easily downloaded to the robot. Sweet!

Great machine. But because it is so comprehensive and flexible takes time to get the most out of it - but well worthy the effort great value.

Setting it up is more difficult than the online videos, but one set up, it great. The remote that come with it is not very clear, download the app on your phone. Custom drills are hard to set up. There should be a booklet or a Web page showing how you can set up the balls go drop where you want on the table. Overall, great machine for the money.

je ne m'attendais pas à un robot aussi efficace , ne bloque pas une balle , les effets sont bien réalisés , la vitesse bluffante , et tout est réglable , avec des combinaisons. l'appli est intuitive , très satisfait

Buon robot per utilizzo casalingo.

This product works as you would expect. One thing to note. The bot needs about 10 balls in the tube before it will fire a ball. The app is great. Easy to use and set up drills.

Not cheap, but it is really a nice device. The setup was easy, basically no hardware setup, it is required to setup an app in the phone through bluetooth. Once it is setup, it works very nicely. It is with all basic training options and it can be programmed as well. The remote control is not very user friendly, the screen is too small. But the phone app is good enough for all you need!

No other mass-produced robot under $1000 allows creating custom drills and from a well-designed app, no less. The drills can be an array of up to 5 shots that can be positioned around the table. It's easy to set up a Falkenberg drills, for example. There are a couple of things to note that aren't clear from the description. The height/trajectory of the head can be set via the app, but it cannot change within a drill. So, one drill has one common trajectory for each shot. That means you can't really set up a serve, a push and a loop in one drill. I have been able to set up underspin pushes and topspin loops in a single drill, no problem. But short serves require that the trajectory of the head be pointing downwards. That being said, because this is a tabletop robot that can be placed anywhere, it can replicate serves better than other (often much more expensive) robots that are permanently mounted at one height at the center of the table. Also, one drill can have two spins only, meaning topspin and backspin. Sidespin is possible by manually rotating the head, but this is not automated so you'll have that side/topspin or side/underspin until you manually rotate it again. The shot quality is great, no complaints. The build quality is impressive and the robot has yet to jam after 10+ hours of use. If the manufacturer is reading this, I would like to make a suggestion. The more expensive PongBot models have automated trajectory and head rotation for sidespin so you can get all possible spins and trajectories in one drill. However, they are mounted in the center of the table to allow for ball recycling. The Nova is far more versatile because it can be placed anywhere on the table, making for more realistic serves, counterlooping, etc. Many robot users don't really care about ball recycling. A human multi-ball feeder doesn't have constant ball recycling so why would I need that in a robot? 150 balls is plenty of workout before needing a break and I could easily rig up an extension to the Nova's basket to allow for another 100 balls if I need that. I'd like to see a "Nova Pro" model that is a tabletop unit that has the automated rotation/trajectory of the more expensive PongBots. I'd pay good money for that.
