Some issues. The biggest is that in my opinion the pre-set drills on the app are not very good for real-world drilling. Maybe for a beginner, but more advanced players will probably not find much all that useful. You can however program individual drills to simulate more realistic play - although it takes a bit of time to get all the settings correct. For example I set up a dinking drill that drops the ball over the net low to backhand, to forehand, and to feet. This also requires rather precise placement of the machine otherwise too many into the net or out. I attempted to get this in that zone where it is on the decision line between taking out of the air and bouncing first - where at the same time trying to get it like a player would do trying to pull wide, go to the center or right at your feet. This 'kind of' worked but it took me about 40 minutes to set it up and adjust it so it was about 80% useful since the machine is not totally consisent - giving me a ball about 1 out of 5 that was high enough that I would simply speed up at my opponents' feet or Erne would send to the net (not precise 80%). Anyway, you can do this for multiple aspects of the game but it takes time. If you just want to practice something like your backhand ground stroke from the same spots from the baseline, yeah the pre-set works okay. The machine itself is a little on the heavy side for putting in and out of a vehicle and it does not have good holding places - it is fine on the roller. Otherwise it seems to be sturdy and works okay after 10 sessions. Get the special training balls, unless you want to be replacing the wheel as regular balls gum it up which adds to the inconsistency - also more consistent since I switched to their balls.","textLength":1782,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":true,"autoModerated":true,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[{"type":1,"dimensionId":3,"dimensionLabel":"Value","id":10,"code":"VAL04","label":null,"value":4},{"type":1,"dimensionId":4,"dimensionLabel":"Durability","id":15,"code":"DUR04","label":null,"value":4},{"type":1,"dimensionId":5,"dimensionLabel":"Quality","id":21,"code":"QUAL5","label":null,"value":5}],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":null,"firstName":"Matt","lastName":"Gillen","emailAddress":"[email protected]","externalId":null,"city":null,"state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":"2025-07-08T16:12:21-04:00","purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-07-07T16:46:14-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"catalogItems":[{"sku":"2033-ERNEPBTM","title":"ERNE Pickleball Trainer","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/2033-ERNEPBTM","category":"pickleball-nets-and-court-accessories","reviewCount":4,"ratingCount":4,"averageRating":4.8,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":1,"5":3},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":6697695,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"A Ryan","text":"Incredible help on front end of purchase when I couldn’t get my order completed on line.
