We are very pleased with this net. It took only five minutes to tie it to the trees. It is sturdy, looks nice, and is a big improvement over our old backyard badminton net.

I've just bought this net and was able to get it for half price from eSportsonline. Shipping took about a week and had no issues. The net is pretty decent considering I only spent about $16 including shipping. With my old net, that came with my set, slams would fly right through the 1 1/4 inch mesh and we could hardly ever tell if the slam cleared the net or not and also the old net was only about 1 1/2 foot wide so we also had times when it was difficult to tell if the birdy was over or under on drop shots and slams. So far, this net has solved both of those problems b/c its 2 1/2 foot wide and 3/4 inch mesh.I do wonder how long it will last b/c its mesh is pretty thin and its lightweight so the bottom tends to curl up. The lightweight is actually a good thing for me though b/c I have cheap posts that would not be able to handle a pro grade net.All in all, I'm completely satisfied. I feel like I got what I was expecting, which was a cheap light weight replacement for the tiny net that came with my badminton set.
