## Description

When you need the top-of-the-line, this Franklin Sports Vintage Croquet Set is for you. Each set comes with enough equipment for up to six people to play. The mallets feature natural wooden shafts and custom knurled hardwood heads and brass fittings to endure vigorous matches. Each mallet matches a ball. The set includes a functional and vintage style stand to hold all croquet balls, mallets, wickets, and stakes for when the match is over and convenient storage.

Review: Quality set - Surprisingly, this croquet set (mostly) survived my son's 8th birthday party. It's a budget set, nothing fancy. The mallets remained unbroken with a dozen kids who've never played croquet before whacking balls around. The balls are still in good shape. They did manage to break one of the stakes, which is a bit of a wonder because it was firmly in the ground and they snapped the top off. I wasn't watching, but I've got the feeling it didn't happen through normal croquet activity. I was looking for an inexpensive croquet set, specifically for this birthday party, and the Franklin brand was the decider when comparing to similar sets. Franklin makes some quality backyard games. I love my Franklin horseshoes. This set includes a bag for carrying everything, but you have to take the heads off of the mallets. With the wooden threads, screwing the heads on and off isn't something I would want to do often, as I'm afraid they'll strip pretty easily. I might carry around the assembled mallets separately from the bag of balls, wickets and stakes.
Review: Completely Fell Apart During Our First Game - Very disappointed. We're a huge fan of croquet, so when our previous set broke down from a couple of years of good solid use, we decided to get a new one. Upon reading the reviews and looking at some of the user submitted photos, we came to the conclusion that the intermediate set would be of at least medium quality (for the money) and would get us through a season or two. The positive reviews we read talked about metal fittings and decent build quality. It turns out, those reviews, and the user submitted photos were for an entirely different set (also made by franklin). They must have been reviews for the advanced or classic set, although when we purchased this set those other sets were sold as a separate item. Upon taking it out of the box, we noticed it was a little smaller than expected. During the first turn of our first game, my 12 year old niece (who only weighs about 60 lbs) hit the end pole and it broke in half. She didn't even hit it very hard. Halfway through the game, at the other end, the other end pole broke. By the end of the game, 3 of the 6 mallets were broken or cracked. The plastic ends of several mallets had also cracked and come off. The plastic balls all had decent sized gashes in them. We have all played croquet many times before with this group. We aren't the most gentle, but it's still pretty rare for us to break a mallet. Unfortunately we didn't play our first game until more than 30 days after purchase, so we're not able to send it back. We certainly didn't expect the set to last forever, but to be completely obliterated after one game not unexpected. I do have to say, we all had a good laugh at just how incredibly crappy the build quality was, and that memory alone is almost worth the $30 we payed. If you're looking for a croquet set you can use for more than one game, look elsewhere.

I love it! We had such fun playing it with kids and grandkids. We need to get a smaller set for the little ones but it was perfect for adults.
