Silent Partner or Tennis Tudor which would you pick for a portable ball machine

I need a portable ball machine and wondering if anyone has experience with Silent Partner or Tennis Tudor plus machines.
Any info regarding the pros and cons of both machines would be appreciated.

Thanks

i am pretty close to pulling the stuff on silent partner. They just seem to offer more value for money.

eg: 699 + shipping gets you oscillation and spin on Silent partner whereas with Tennis tutor you will not get any spin.

The batteries seem to be cheap with SP (40$)

I can't speak about the TT, but both my friend and I purchased Silent Partner Pro machines 1 and 2 years ago.

I like using the remote, speed, spins and other options all work well and reliably.
SP is supposed to be a little more powerful, though I've never been able to use the machine at full power.

I believe that TT is also a great machine - probably can't go wrong with either one. I would buy a SP again, but you might want to consider the best deal - feature for feature.

Is ball fuzz an issue? I hear a lot about that on this forum. :(

I'm very interested in the SP Star model.

Silent Partner is great, though I think it is pretty much impossible to get the balls going to the full 95 mph speed (it's really not necessary). No problem with ball fuzz. The only issue I've had is that removable plastic ball holder is prone to cracking if you blast a ball into it. So if you're a hard hitter make sure you don't use the machine as a target.
