The Cream Of Lobster - The Elite Grandslam V

Lobster's top model, the Elite Grandslam V just about breaks into this price catergory - + or - $2500, but though only a 44lb battery machine, can more than compete with many of the AC powered 'Big Boys'!

With it's all court coverage allowing 'real' tennis play, it's pre-programmed drills based on player types, it's fully customizable sequences with up to 18 court position choices, it's state-of-the-art LCD control panel, and 20 function wireless remote, this is one hell of a ball machine at any price!

The More Affordable End Of 'Deluxe'

For less than $4000 SAM have two sturdy machines, built to withstand constant use and be invaluable to a tennis teacher - the 'Sport' and the 'Coach'. They're both programmable and have a choice of shots to 7 positions on the court.

They've not got the range of programmability of the top of the line Playmates and only a simple feed on or off remote, but they deliver balls at least 30 inches above the court surface - nearly twice as high as most ball machines. This gives the ejected balls a trajectory that is much closer to that delivered by a real player.

They're backed with a three year warranty, as befits the size of the purchase.

Which Ball Machine Is Best To Buy?

The Lobster Elite Grandslam is in a league of it's own when assessing value for money in this price category, and is the only machine you could easy get into a vehicle and to a remote court. It would make a great choice for an individual with a home court or on the move.

The Playmate and SAM models have been designed to withstand the extra demands of commercial operation, reflected in their weight, construction and 3 year warranty. They would make ideal teaching or club machines where strength, durability and easily accessed tennis drills are prerequisites.

The Tennis Tutor Shotmaker has only a 2 year warranty, but being chosen by the professionals at the training facility at Ponte Vedra Beach shows how well this machine is respected for value, quality and scope.

The Playmate Chameleon machines have a greater array of functions, befitting their price, and their interchangeability would allow a tennis club to select a simple control panel for rentals, and a more versatile panel for coaching tennis pupils.

The Playmate Slam is one of very few tennis ball machines to deliver a 'proper' serve from it's elevated position, and the price tells you why it's not commonly available on many ball machines.
