4 out of 5 stars Nice, Indeed   October 19, 2008
We had a lot of fun with this over the summer! The bag is okay, but not heavy. It's an inexpensive set. I would not recommend this set for kids that are going to be setting this up themselves a lot since it's a lesser quality one. However, it works just fine for us and our needs!!!


2 out of 5 stars Disappointed in carrying case   September 29, 2008
I was excited when I read that the set came with a "Deluxe Carrying Case", but when the item arrived, I soon became disappointed. The case is really nice, but when I screwed the mallets & the handles together, they no longer fit in the case! I can fit two (layed on opposite sides) with the handles sticking out of the case. I can't zip it shut, but can close the Velcro on the top, I wanted to be able to carry all of them! If I wanted to carry all the mallets in the case & zip it closed, I would have to unscrew the mallets from the handles each time after using them, then I would have to worry about stripping the handles. What a bother that would be!

We did use them & I agree for the price, the set will do, but next time when designing the case, take the someone should take the length into account please! That was misleading advertising to say it came with a "Deluxe Carrying Case" when it can't even be used properly!



3 out of 5 stars great garden game   July 15, 2008
My son wanted to get this game. We have been pleased with it. Holds up well to alot of children playing


4 out of 5 stars Quality good for the price   July 9, 2008
For the price I wasn't expecting too much but the balls and mallets were solid and it came with a nice carrying case. It's certainly possible to play a proper came of croquet with this set.


2 out of 5 stars ok for a cheap game   June 30, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

The set is not really full sized, in that the mallets are short; however, adults can still use them, and small children can also. The balls are lighter weight and so don't roll well in grass. One of the mallet sticks was too small and so would not stay screwed in to the mallet head and had to be glued. For a family outing where you don't really care about the game but just want something cheap and portable, the set is fine. The price was certainly right.
