I see a lot of reviews for how far these go, just looking to play in the backyard, is this too good for that?

It goes so much farther its like withcraft and just amazing but the minute it hits something solid t breaks and you can't adjust it anymore and that kind of spoils the show

They work fine in a backyard, but really shine in large open fields, simply because they really, really like to fly. My grandkids absolutely love them in a large nearby park. The backyard is more for a frisby.

No, you can still play in the backyard just fine. They are easy to catch and can be thrown softly. Not to mention, they have a soft outer rim which makes for a soft catch.

you could use it, but this is more for a park, the beach or a sport field (football, soccer, baseball, etc..) it flies fast and far.

It does get load more than you would think. I think it would be great for a backyard party. It might be pushing it for being on the beach though. That's just my opinion. It does have great clear sound.

I think it should be great for what you want it for. Check out this youtube video.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDZQJIBudsIhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4tX0RWYhL8

Yes! Also my kids are really hard on stuff and this has held up very well! Dozens of games played on this in the back yard, And still no problems! Plus small enough to store away and carry out on a whim! They are great!

The Speaker works well in most noise conditions. It is possible if the street noise is loud enough you might have a slightProblem hearing it clearly. So unless there is a lawn mower going close by you should be fine.

We played on a decent sized lawn. You don't need loads of space, but you do need several feet between each wicket. It's quite a nice set, and felt a bit like the set from my childhood. Linda P.

Hi Colette, I have a play:5 on the first floor of my small house, it is about 650 square feet of open space. The sound from the play:5 is great, I would recommend it highly. I haven't heard a play:3 but I wouldn't be concerned by the play:5 being too loud, bass is usually the issue for neighbors and it isn't too heavy on bass, just a nice full sound. Hope this helps.

I would say it is more of an indoor toy as it is constructed of plastic and you are supposed to play on your knees. We bought three sets, two for nephews (both age 11) and one for my brother to play with his two year old son. One of the nephew's sticks broke at the bottom of the shaft the first day as they were getting a bit rough, leaning on the stick. That speaks to the durability of the set -- so again, probably not recommended for outdoor use. They are having tons of fun with them inside, though!

Since they don't cover the entire ear to cancel outside sounds, the bass may seem less intense than those that engulf the whole ear. But, the wide range and clarity of sounds is very good and worth the modest price tag from Amazon.The main issue is what your outside noise level is like. That will determine whether they're right for you. I use them only at home where I can control ambient noise. For a gym environment, I would use a noise cancellation type of headset. Good question. Would appreciate other comments on what I think.

It's pretty loud for the size, but a space you could describe as an "arena" might require something more substantial. These are great for a "room" even a "hall". For outdoor use especially, it wouldn't really project very far.

It has a good sound for personal performance. It would not be great in a large area.

I have mine outside, but they sound great. I would not be afraid to have them in a small retail space.

The rage on these is great. (and is listed as being double the others on the market - I'd believe it.) I can be in the backyard or garage and hear fine. One story house about 2000sq ft. My parents had the same one in a slightly larger 2 story house. No problem.

Yes, I use my on the patio. Sounds good. Took it my friends and use it at their pool. Then they went and bought one the next day.

hmmmmm........good question..............I honestly haven't used it much as we were at the end of the season for playing outdoor venues when I purchased it. We are playing tonight and I plan to set it up..................I can check that out.

Absolutely. This thing is crazy loud. I've only had it at full volume to see how hi it can go and honestly, I cant see ever needing it that loud inside any sort of normal residence at all. Outside in an open yard? Oh yeah, this would work.

The ball is like a heavy wiffle ball. It would not bounce well on grass. Unless you live in the desert, a yard will be too soft. We play in the street by our house.
