Pin PopToss
$159.99 – $200.00
Since 1995, you, our loyal customers and many vendors have hung in there with us on this incredible journey.
Most of you are baseball/softball lifers. You, like us, love hitting that round ball! Our Vacuum PopToss has been in the marketplace for 25 years. It’s a personal pitching machine, non-battery, non-electric. It’s only drawback is it throws or pitches a new 12-inch softball for a distance of 25 feet. It’s meant for personal use. You do have to be mindful of keeping dirt from getting into the top of the PopToss. A few years ago, we added a dirt filter to upgrade the Vacuum PopToss.
Why create a new PopToss model?
We wanted to create a pitching machine based on the following ideas
- We wanted to create an upgrade in the distance this Pin PopToss provides. It has two settings:
- Setting one tosses or pitches the 12-inch softball 29 feet.
- Setting two does 35 to 37 feet…. using a new softball on a hard, level surface.
- We wanted to design a PopToss pitching machine that targets what we call “Buddy Ball”… meaning you and your buddy can have a great time hitting together. The Pin PopToss is loaded with your bat and activated with your baseball bat. It’s a two-person machine.
- If you are a high school coach or a little league coach and you want your team to get great hitting practice without a batting tee or Jugs pitching machine, pair your hitters off together. One kid hits while the other kid activates the Pin PopToss.
- If you are a parent and you want to spend quality time hitting some balls with your child, use our Pin PopToss! Your kid loads it and you activate it with a baseball bat. You will be spending quality doing something everyone loves… hitting a baseball or softball or softie ball.
Many of you Slow-Pitch Softball players desire hitting practice at times when your game pitcher is not available or he’s late arriving or he doesn’t like doing practice pitching because he can get hit by a batter and injured. The Pin PopToss is great for team practice.
IT THROWS PERFECT STRIKES – PERFECT PITCHES.
We wanted to create a non-battery, non-electric pitching machine that was almost indestructible.
We wanted to make it real simple to get the two replacement parts that customers would ever need. if ever. Those two parts are the base the PopToss sits on and the long yellow cap, which may be needed if the machine is struck by a batted ball. These two parts would be really inexpensive and easy to replace for customers who need them.
We also wanted a PopToss that was NOT affected by dirt, cold, rain, or anything else. Yes, a pitching machine that would work perfectly for 15 to 20 years.
We wanted to design a pitching machine that was incredibly easy to use.
You just load it, as usual using your bat knob end. Secondly, to activate it, to pitch the ball 35 to 37 feet, you just push or pull the lever.
Adjust the two settings from one to the other by turning the gray ball striker either in a counterclockwise or clockwise direction to align with an arrow on the yellow cap.
We know this pitching machine will be loved as much as the Vacuum PopToss we’ve been selling since 1995.

I was absolutely amazed on how I was able to talk to a live representative on my first call. There was no question or bickering as far as replacing parts that I needed and when I did receive the parts I received parts that I didn’t even expect to get and now my pop toss is up and running better than ever.
Rick –
Had it for 4 years it continues to work without an issue.
Bob Tavenner –
I haven’t used it but a few times since I have a hard time walking very far but the few times I did it worked great after adjusting the arc. Seems like they have great customer support and you can’t beat the lifetime warranty. If I ever get my leg fixed I will be using it a lot more,
Sean Connolly –
Customer seevice is great and easy to work with. I have never had an issue with getting replacement parts and I love using my pop toss! The lifetime warranty is a real thing and I highly recommend this product!
Royce Lee Yardley –
It’s more than I expected. I can now have batting practice any time I want. I’ve recommended your product to a number of people.
Paul –
Outstanding batting practice aid. Excellant customer support.

I purchased my first Pop Toss in 2012 and still own/use it regularly (at least weekly). The piston head has 2 rings with 4 support tabs meant to absorb the impact forces when the piston head has reached the end of its travel after striking the ball. These support tabs failed within months of purchase. I contacted customer support and advised them of the problem with the suggestion that the number of these support tabs should be increased from 4 to 8. Pop Toss sent me a replacement piston head and whole new unit as appreciation of my suggestion which has now been incorporated into the current design of your Pop Toss. I have made additional support modifications to the piston heads (w/4 support tabs) and my 2 units continue to perform well with any issues to this day.
A few years ago, I began experiencing problems with the air bleed off valve (on both units) and again contacted customer support wanting to purchase replacement valves and I was sent a complete new Pop Toss (latest design of 8 cylinder support tabs and unit that pops the ball higher and further).
I can not say enough kudos to Pop Toss for honoring their life time guarantee.
Comparing the older design and the newer design, I note the following key differences
Old Unit. New Unit
Spring Length. 12”. 14”
“Yellow Cap”/Cylinder Housing. 10”. 13”
Angle Unit Makes w/ground. 80 degrees. 45 degrees
Popped Ball Height. 7’. ~ 15’
Popped Ball Distance. 5’. ~ 15’
Repeatability Accuracy. 6”. 20”
My preference is the older units performance as it will consistently toss a strike every time, whereas the newer unit very much represents unlimited arc slow pitch softball play, however very seldom is a strike received.
I now have noted that your website, allows the purchase of replacement parts, which I use to keep my two old design Pop Toss units in serviceable condition.
I thoroughly endorse your product as an invaluable training tool for slow pitch softball play.
Many people have seen my use of the Pop Toss unit as pregame batting practice, hitting into a net and I have provided them with your contact details and the advice as to the difference in performance between the old design and the new design and my preference is the old unit’s performance and this should be discussed with customer support before placing an order.
I am a strong supportive of your product.
Tommy Carter –
I absolutely love Pop Toss!!! The lifetime warranty is legit and I love Pat she is always cool about fixing the part issues or if that doesn’t work they send you a replacement!!! My favorite company and I’m so glad that years ago I bought my PopToss!!!! A+++++++++
Joe Flauta –
My wife purchased the PopToss for me as an anniversary present, which is truly one of the best gifts ever received! The machine is truly amazing, easy to assemble, and even better to use!! I’ve brought my PopToss to batting practices with the team, and even they are truly amazed by it. They get perfect pitches to off of with the practice of timing and form. A lot of my teammates have even acquired information on how they could purchase one for themselves. I use it occasionally Chen I just want to go to the field by myself, and love the convenience of being able to hit a pitched ball instead of off of a tee-stand. I am real excited in using this machine!!
Kyle Maurer –
Great product! I’ve purchased two. Nothing else like it on the market. I have the jugs battery powered soft toss machine and another off brand electric toss machine. This is definitely my favorite. Can’t beat the customer service or the warranty. No complaints at all.
“Pomo Bill” Richardson –
Before 2021, I had not played competitive slowpitch softball since 1996. I needed to get my batting stroke back. I wanted to find an inexpensive machine that I could use to practice alone anytime. I discovered PopToss online and could not believe that this simple machine would be all I would need. I have used it now for four summer seasons before games and during offdays. I am 64 years old, playing with and against the sons of my peers. I can’t run and throw like I used to, but I still have great hands. And thanks to PopToss, I am hitting line drive singles and doubles every two out of three times up. This old man loves PopToss!
Patrick Broderick –
The Pop Toss Green Tee is simply the best tool for solitary slow-pitch softball batting practice on the market today and the customer service is unparalleled. I never leave reviews but I’ve enjoyed this product so much that I feel compelled to – 5-stars.
Steve Osullivan –
I have it for about 2or 3 years.
I truly believe it has helped with my swing techniques. I use it a few times a week.
I highly recommend this unit to everyone.
The costume service is great
Scott S –
I’ve had my PopToss for just over a year. I love it! It’s great for when you don’t have anyone to pitch to you, or in my case, I Coach a team and the pitcher wasn’t available for some practices. We were still able to get some decent batting practice in. Simple machine, but works well. I have not needed customer service, but I’ve heard great things.
Tom Seymour –
I like the pop toss. I can go BP without anyone else. I’ve owned one for several years and am glad I bought one.
Tom Ward –
Now that the season is over I will use it 5 times a week…I used it daily when I first got it and it worked perfectly…Glad I bought it and I guarantee it will improve my game…
Tommy Shaarda –
Amazing product!
Tommy Shaarda –

Royce Lee Yardley –
Not only is this a GREAT product but when I had a minor problem it was take3n care of without any hassle. I can go have my battling practice without having to get 2 or 3 to go with me. I have recommended it to anyone that would listen.
Claude Cousineau –

Chol Kim –
I love my pop toss! Have had it for years and anytime an issue arise.. I’d simply email and get a quick response back with solution or new replacement parts. Their lifetime warranty is unmatched. This is the best tool for a slowpitch hitter!!
Cheong Sin –
A long time Poptoss pitching machine user here. This machine for me has been the game changer in playing softball. I no longer buy shiny bats, because it was never a bat problem but has everything to do with my mechanic. Only way to improve my game was to work on my mechanic with live balls. Poptoss machine provided me exactly what I needed something I couldn’t get from using Tee. And I am a totally different hitter now with no doubt. I only have one utrip bat and one senior bat, That’s all I need. All the credit goes to Poptoss for my success. And the customer service Pat has been providing is second to none. Pat and the team have been nothing but exceptional providing me the replacements needed with no extra charge. Thanks Pat and the service team!! It still puzzles me why so many people keep wasting money on the bats when bat is not the root problem.. Just grab a Poptoss with a whole bunch of balls, 3 month later, you will be a .600-.700 hitter.

Customer service is awesome!
After four years of moderate use (2-4 times per month, about 6-months per year) the launch distance had significantly decreased, watching some videos I thought it was the air valve. I emailed CS describing the issue, within 24 hours they responded. They said it could be a handful of other issues too so they replaced the entire top of the unit or the barrel (really the entire unit minus the base). All I had to do was pay for the shipping, again within 24 hours they sent me an invoice for shipping I paid it and I had a working unit a week after my initial email. If you were curious, the spring was the likely culprit, as the old spring had spread apart and was almost twice the length of the new one. Really a cool product, with a company that stands behind it.
Rick Urso –
Fantastic item to assist in getting better at softball
Clinton –
After all these years, it is still working great. Had an issue email them and they sent me a brand new part. No charge
Neff –
Great product. Really helped me to hit backside with all the extra practice.
Scott –
I’ve had mine for quite sometime, use it plenty in a small tball field just outside my backyard for some quick batting practice.
Mark Stevens –
I purchased my pop toss a few years ago and it’s the best thing I’ve ever bought, lifetime warranty and always works great.
Danny Fields –
As a Senior Softball player, I have used a Poptoss for over 8 years and the company really stands behind their Lifetime Warranty. The Poptoss has been an invaluable tool when other players are not available for BP and for getting consistent pitches.
Although I loved the unit I purchased a number of years ago, the newest edition of the Poptoss Green Pitching Machine also comes with improved valves, a longer pitching distance, is easily adjustable and comes with its own water-bottle-based stabilizing unit. Poptoss continues to hit Homeruns with their products and with this new Green Pitching Machine (which also has a lifetime warranty). I love their attention to detail and their excellent customer seyrvice. Danny Fields
Brian J Koziol –
They have a great product and probably the only company I have ever dealt with that stands by it without giving you are hard time. Great team and Pat is awesome to deal with. I use it almost everyday as I play five times a week. Thank you guys and keep up the great work. Brian
Ron Ehoff –
I love the pop toss cuz I take BP by myself a lot. An this let me swing at actual pitches not just hit off a tee. I highly recommend it if u need to get swings an don’t have a pitcher. 5 star all the way!!
