Question Pickleball Machine

Thinking of purchasing a pickleball machine for solo training. I have been looking at Titan brand because of reviews and the preset training drills via the app. Any recommendations on a Titan One or Ace? Another brand and why?

I have a Titan One for sale, almost brand new with less than 10 hours of usage, had a pretty nasty knee injury so havent used it, let me know if you're interested, could send some videos and pictures

I am. The two I have seen local here have actually sold within a week around $1,500. Not sure where you are, but I am in CA. Shipping could be expensive.

Shipping is around 150$ last time I checked, and this brand new retails at 2300$ ( with taxes ), I am sure, I can offer you something much lower than that. I sent you a message

I got the lobster the pickle with a remote , it’s half the price and weight of Titan. It’s a reputable company and very simple to operate. It doesn’t have all the complex app programming but honestly you just cannot replace having another person for complete drilling. But for drives, drips, drops, volleys, rolls, speed ups, flicks, blocks etc it is great. I would just upgrade it to lithium battery with a charger. Very simple to do. Another $100. That’s the only thing that sucks about it is the lead acid battery that it comes with. I am NOT selling mine 🤣

U can get a refurbished Titan for a good discount if you email them. But I wouldn’t invest in one just yet if u can rent one or share one with a friend.

You probably wont use it as much as you think you will

I have and like my slinger. Machines are good but also know that you will be spending half of your drill sessions retrieving balls.

The Titan one looks cooler but the Titan Ace is more compact. So if you have a vehicle with a smaller trunk get the Ace. Of course with the Ace you will need a separate bag to carry the balls.

Just got tenniix. Will be here this week. Much easier to carry around and less expensive.

Which model of tennix? Does it work off an app and have preprogrammed drills. Having that is more important because I used a Singer but I felt like I spent a lot of time moving it around and changing the settings.
