Great Nets - highly recommend
I was asked by my Florida condo HOA to investigate replacing our 4 lightweight, outdoor, moveable pickleball nets because they were requiring regular replacement due to wind and weather damage. After doing extensive research online, speaking with a purchaser of these nets for outdoor use in a northern state, and querying many aspects of the Spartan nets in terms of quality, manufacturing, customer service, specifications, and other aspects, we purchased 4 of these net systems without the wheels.
The nets have now been in use outdoors 24/7 since we received them in October 2023. They are a light years upgrade from the nets we replaced and the quality, heft, and stability have endured very well thus far despite several Florida storms we have experienced with high winds and driving rains - the systems have not moved nor has the tension on any of the net cables slackened! Honestly, the only con I can state at this point is that the small bolt holes in the frames show rust due to weather exposure. This does not affect the integrity of the structure and is more cosmetic, which we plan to address with Rustoleum touch up spray paint... not a big deal or major concern at all!
These nets are comparable and perhaps even better for the price than the heavy duty, name brand net systems out there. We have a very large and active group of pickleball players in our community and I can say with confidence that everyone is enjoying playing with these nets in place which provides a high quality of playing experience.
Lastly, I will say that the owner/manufacturer of Spartan Athletic Co., Shawn, provides excellent customer service in support of this product. If interested in this excellent net system, talk to Shawn... highly recommend these Spartan nets!
