I got a substitute item
Customer Rating: 




I can't in all fairness review this product, because I never got it. What Microvillage sent me instead, at no extra cost, was a 15 in 1 set. Even better value, I thought...
Until I tried it. Instead of the large looking screw-in fixing of the 6 in 1 item, this had a rather more flimsy slide in fitting, and when I played tennis, I did notice some swaying in the raquet head.
Then I tried baseball...with near fatal results!! After about half an hours play, I took a swing. The fitting snapped, the bat head shot across the room, & nearly smashed my glass fronted CD cabinet!!
I laugh about it now, but wouldn't have done, had it broken anything.
Problem is, as the side of the fitting that broke was the handle side, it's now completely useless, as none of the heads can be fixed in place.
I'd only got the item in the post that day, & had used it for about an hour in total.
Please, don't accept this as a replacement item, or if you do, AVOID THE BASEBALL BAT AT ALL COSTS!! Let's keep the death, mayhem & destruction on the video screens!
As an aside to this, I should explain that I have no problem with the service given by Microvillage.
I ordered the item last thursday, & picked it up at the mail depot on Monday. Monday night it broke, so I e-mailed Microvillage via Amazon's feedback facility, & a confirmation of a refund in full (including postage) was waiting for me when I got home on Tuesday evening. They've not even asked me to return it as proof it's broken, but then I suppose it was only £8 in total, & wasn't worth the effort. I really can't fault their service at all, which has been quick all round.
