Anyone can share any info about Y&T B3? I already own an Ipong V300 (not a big fan honestly) so this is something I'm gonna be comparing it to. B3 is marketed as a "beginner's" robot and I am trying to find out whether it has enough speed/heavy spin for competitive players. I would use it for very basic footwork drills, practice topspin, try out new rubbers, etc.

Anyone got one? How's it? Noisy?

Sorry I can't help but I've read some good things about this though information is scarce. I like the way it has two wheels that are independently controlled meaning that in theory you can control the speed and spin. A lot of cheaper robots only have one wheel so the faster the ball, the more spin. With this robot if both wheels are at the same pace then it should give a no spin ball, even if its a fast delivery.

Having said that, it is a cheaper robot and cheap things are usually that way for a reason so perhaps the theory is not translated to practice.

I'll be really interested hear what others say or yourself if you take the plunge.

I have the tibhar robopro junior which I guess is a clone of y&t b3.
I haven't tried other robots so I can't compare...
But... it is really nice.
It gives me topspin, backspin an no spin balls.
The spin is good. Speed... It isn't a cannon...
The speed btw is good... Maybe a touch on the slow side.
It has a wireless remote control that is really useful.
The oscillator works well in tandem with frequency
Occasionally it lauches 2 balls in a single time but... It's not a issue, it happens .
Quality it's overall good, never had a problem. For the price I'd buy it again...
I have it from 2 months
