iPong V300 Table Tennis Training Robot - Serves 40mm Regulation Ping Pong Balls Automatically - Play Solo w/o Playback Mode on your Ping Pong Table - Various Models Available, Size 19 , Blue

Just received my iPong V300 last week. The assembly was very easy and straight forward. I did follow suggestion from some customers and put a smooth tape on the motor top to reduce friction force from the pressure, and I loaded 120 balls and the robot never jammed even once. It worked very smoothly, it can produce topspin, backspin, with different speed, and can oscillate from left to right. Love the remote. It was fun to play and the kids love it too. Compared to some other more advanced products that could easily cost $600 to $2500, this iPong V300 is really a bargain, and it's amazing that the robot can do most of the work, more than enough training for the beginners and mid-level players, for only $119. I'm very satisfied about the product. If you are a pro or advanced player, then spend $2000 to get a sophisticated robot model, otherwise, if you are beginners or mid-level players to play for fun, then this iPong V300 is an excellent choice for you. Highly recommend !

Intermediate player here, bought it to practice shots and improve my technique. 4 out of 5 stars because I think it did help but here is some feedback. Btw, I bought it in Dec 2023, whatever model version that means. 1. The slowest frequency setting is fast if you're a beginner. Also fast for someone doing focused drills for technique improvement. I'll explain below how I slowed it down a little bit. 2. I have not had a ball jamming issue as much as I see in other comments (very rare). Just be smart about it. The rotating feeder opening should be behind the feeding hole when you fill it with balls. Make sure you're gentle with the rotating feeder disc if you need to adjust its position. Very fragile! 3. The oscillating base sometimes stops randomly for several seconds. 4. You have to play with the top spin and back spin settings a little bit to understand how much and what kind of spin and speed you want without the robot shooting the ball straight out of the table. 5. Definitely buy a net if you want to practice a lot. Saves your back and you don't have to spend too much time collecting balls for the next round. 6. Wish it allowed side spin as well. Here's what I did to slow down the feeder by about 25% (only do this if you know what you're doing and be very gently all throughout). Disassemble the top and bottom conical parts. Also remove the rotating feeder disc very gently (not required, but I did it out of fear of breaking it since its too fragile). Remove the front half of the main body (the side that has the LED screen). You don't need to remove any screws in the entire process. Just depress the the top and bottom clips and separate the front half (be careful not to pull it out too hard, the LED screen cable may break off). Behind the motors you'll see a PCB and 4 connectors on it going to the four different motors. Each connector is labelled on the PCB silk screen. You'll want to disconnect the one that says "MF". For me that was the first connector. Be gentle removing the glue on the connector (and you don't need glue when putting it back). Put a 2Ohm 5Watt resistor in series with the black cable. I just cut the cable, slid heat shrink on either side, soldered the resistor in series, covered the exposed electrical ends with the heat shrink. Be sure you're not using a resistor with less than 5Watt power dissipating capacity. Also, do not put a bigger resistor than 2Ohms (3Ohms may workout, but test it first with all the balls loaded before putting back all the assembly) because you're reducing power going to the feeder disc motor and you don't want it to jam on you with all the balls loaded. Now put back all the assembly in the reverse order. Helped me slow down by about 25% which I could appreciate during my practice sessions. Tested up to 90 balls and it did not jam for me. You're welcome!

This thing is great. After the photo and some adjusting we actually moved it to the other side bc he should return to that corner where it was. The thing is a work horse. Came with agitator in place. Loaded it up and non stop fun. Barely ever jams and when it does easy fix. Just don’t load it with spider webbed balls if playing in basement! My seven year old is an addict. He has played non stop Solo for two days now. Got bless! I got a break! The remote could have a better range but he doesn’t care. I start him and he literally plays for hours. He loads 40 or so balls at once. Any more and it slows down and maybe jams. He pauses it to reload but doesn’t get all the other functions and that is fine. Pause and unpause are all he needs for hours of no parent fun. I am really impressed. If the balls go in the deep dark corners of the basement make sure the kids de spider web them and it won’t jam. Others said about jamming but as long as you don’t line up the agitator hole in start with main hole and the kids don’t add webs and gunk attached to the balls it works amazingly well. I upped its power and it is super strong. May not work with a net of you want a true test of its powers... it would need to be on a stool behind the table. Great little robot for the price and I love it bc it has given me a break from him begging to play and he can work it solo. It is a gem. So happy. He got the net and the robot for Christmas and is over the moon. No disappointment. Kudos!!

As an X professional table tennis player I wanted to try this for my son BUT this product should not be in the market period!!, WHY? because it takes the energy and motivation and FUN out of any beginner or intermediate player, it jams continuously and it takes the fun AWAY!!!, this machine needs a lot of upgrading and attention, don’t know why it is still in the market. If I had a ZERO star I would have given it.

The iPong V300 is quite a nice machine. Adjusting spins, oscillation, and frequency is a breeze with the included remote control. I have used the machine for about two weeks now and have had minimal issues. One time, the spinner inside did not work, so no balls would come out. However, that started working again. It is also a challenge at times to get the machine positioned so that the balls hit my side of the table rather than missing (too long) or hitting the net (too short). Overall, the machine is consistent, but the slight variability of the trajectory means that you will get a variety of results. It would have been nice to receive a set of suggestions for settings/placement in the box, so there was less experimentation. Want to return a backspin serve directed to your forehand? Place the machine here and use the following settings. Want to return a looping topspin shot to your backhand? Place the machine here and use these settings. Unfortunately, those suggestions are missing, leaving the user to recreate the wheel. That said, I'm happy with the machine and have had a lot of fun so far. Also, I suggest pairing this machine with the iPong table tennis catch net ( iPong Carbon Fiber Table Tennis Ball Catch Net ) so that when you play 100 balls, you don't have to pick up 100 balls off the floor! Good luck.

I enjoy using this ping pong robot, when it works. The first one I purchased had to be returned to Amazon because after just a couple uses it stopped working. The replacement is better, but the spinning wheels that propel the ball is not dependable. Sometimes the ball shoots directly at you like from a cannon, and other times, on the same settings the ball dribbles onto the table but not over the net. However, I guess that could be considered realistic since human opponents can do that to. As long as it is effective more than half the time it's very worthwhile and lots of fun practice.

I initially purchased iPong V300 to have fun with my family. I used to be an intermediate table tennis player so naturally, I did not have the expectation that I would be using this for myself. Well, it turned out that in the end, I could also use this "toy" to recollect the old days of hard training. Pros: 1. You can adjust the degree of both topspin and downspin. The lowest settings should be acceptable to family members who know no more than swinging the paddle. The highest settings, on the other hand, produce very spinny balls. If you hold the paddle still on the table, you can see the degree of spin by the trajectory of the reflected ball. Interestingly, the robot allows you to set both top- and downspin simultaneously, which yields the kind of spin that you don't see in real games, nonetheless it's fun to play with. 2. You can adjust the frequency of balls spit out by the machine. The lowest settings, again, are very acceptable to amateur family members, while the highest settings give you a very intense workout. *3. There is a remote to control the settings. You can also pause the machine temporarily for a break. 4. It is very easy to remove the machine from the table -- when I would like to play with my family, I simply take it off the table. It is much more convenient than a professional robot for which it's always a pain if you want to get it out of the way quickly so you could play a game with your kid. Neutral: 1. Unlike a professional robot, you have to move the machine around the table once in a while, if you change your settings. I actually am not annoyed by this, understanding that this is a much cheaper alternative, and I always have fun with my son together to find the best spot for the new setting. 2. I feel the trajectories of the balls are somewhat unrealistic, regardless of the settings. This is understandable as this is not a very sophisticated machine. Cons: *1. The remote is rather short-ranged. Often I have to carefully aim it, and/or press the button a couple of times to get the signal registered. It would be much more satisfying if the range of the remote was at least across the table. 2. We rarely use the oscillation function -- you cannot control the range of angles. If your settings make you place the machine on the long side of the table on the other end, chances are that some balls will be shot out of the table from the short side. Overall, I feel this is a great machine that serves its purpose if the buyers understand the features and limitations of the machine.

It works but doesn't pack much power to be very effective. The build is thin plastic and filmy. After several weeks of usage, it became stop and go. Now it's running but not shooting balls. For the price they charged, it's a shame, more like a $10 junk.

Muito bom, só o controle que é bem simplinho, cumpre o que promete, não deixou a desejar. Surpreendeu positivamente.

Buen producto en buen estado

No regrets at all. One of the best things I've bought in a long time. It barely jams and there are a ton of drills you can do. You can definitely improve your game and fitness with this.

This unit does NOT include battery power. However, can buy a USB-9V convert cable and powered by power bank.

I got tired of waiting for my crowdfunded ping pong robot, so I got this when it was on sale. It worked great for the first week. I was so happy I can just hit some balls whenever I wanted, and practice my form to build consistency. I was happy with the variety of speeds you can put on it. Albeit, the top and bottom spin speed adjustments both affect the overall outbound speed of the ball, so it can become quite tricky to consistently get the right setting. I think most of the time I just found a good setting and kept it there. But my happiness was short lived, I noticed second week that despite nothing changing, more and more balls were not making it over the net. So my solution was to increase the speed. Sure, that worked for a while, then even at max power many balls won't clear the net. So I thought, maybe it got dirty, I mean, motors love to pickup hairs and dirt and get clogged. So I opened it up to clean it, that's when I was shocked at what I saw. Ok, first of all, dirt wasn't the problem. There were a few stray hairs in there, but nothing around the motors. It was actually pretty clean. So that was not the power problem. Second, there were so many things that were screws directly into plastic, instead of nuts and bolts holding things into brackets etc. Screws directly into plastic on a thing with high speed motors is just failure waiting to happen. When it does, because the screws are directly in plastic, there will be no fixing it. There was also a bunch of hot glue holding things in place, which is always a sign of quality engineering (sarcasm!). Needless to say, I closed her up, disappointed that I couldn't fix it, and send it back for refund.
