   Love that it engages my dog til she tires, which is not to quick. She's a corgi and is learning to bring back, but doesn't give the ball back so we keep two balls going to get her to drop one

   Yes, it's mostly plastic, but it's THICK plastic, and it works just fine. It's design replicates a baseball launcher: two spinning wheels on either side of a launch tube. Drop a ball into the hopper and it will drop into the launch tube. There the spinning wheels will grab and sling it. How far? Depends on how fast the wheels spin. Out of the box, mine launched balls 12 feet in the air at the lowest (10 ft.) setting. Things to know: Only one ball can be loaded at a time, so you will have to train your dog to bring it back and drop it into the ball hopper or you will have to stay there dropping a ball in one at a time. Small price to pay to watch how much fun they have. If you want to use it outdoors, you will need 6 "C" batteries. I strongly recommend buying rechargeable batteries and a charger.

   idk what stretch is for but sure lol this toy is pretty amazing for how small it is. It has 3 different length settings on it to shoot the ball. 1 minor set back is that if the ball you're playing with gets too slobbery and wet - the machine doesn't grip it as well and it doesn't shoot as far even on the highest setting. We use it indoors for our pup so even the low setting is fine . Super easy to setup ,plug in and go. Its sort of loud so if your dog scares easily you might have to train them into getting familiar with it but both our pup and kitten Are very interested in the toy!

   I think I love it more than my chihuahua, it gives my throwing arm a break. She loves it too but thinks I have to be standing next to it for it to launch. We're working on it. It whirs and she wasn't sure what to make of it at first. After about a week, she's beginning to put the ball in it. Only bad thing is: she loves to test things with her nose, so she moves the trajectory. Other than that, I love this product so far. You can use any two inch balls. The lighter the ball, the further it flies. It hasn't damaged anything so far, not even my cat's face. Plug it in and go.

   My dog LOVES this! Right after we got it, he got impatient and stuck his nose in the hole just in time for it to shoot the ball and hit him right in the kisser! It took some work but I got him okay with it again. My only complaint would be that it doesn’t stay on, so often he tries to play with it but it doesn’t throw his ball (because it’s not on!). Then he thinks if he yells at it enough, it’ll throw the ball. He also tries to put other toys in it and gets frustrated that it won’t throw them! All in all this is a great toy and well worth the price!

   Works exactly as described. I've had it running for 2 weeks now. My dog is too dumb to put it in himself, so that's apparently become my new job. Can't fault the product though.
