## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you have to remove the heads of the mallets to store them in the bag?**
A: No not at all. As others have noted it's all a bit of a tight fit but with a bit of practice everything fits in the bag just fine. (Put the mallets in first, handle first then slide in the head, two mallet heads at each end of the bag)

**Q: Can you tell me what the balls are made of please?**
A: I bought it as a gift and only played with it once. As I recall the balls were quite hefty, so probably not plastic, but I couldn't tell you for sure.Sorry for not being more helpful.RegardsOliver

**Q: What weight is the set?**
A: Total weight of the set as packaged for delivery is 14.354kgsI hope this helps.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A quality product of great value
*by D***1 on 29 August 2013*

The other reviews had led me to believe this was a quality product so my expectations were sky high. I was delighted to find the quality of the product was even higher than anticipated and far better than the photographs (how often can you say that?). The wooden mallets ooze quality and the hoops are of 10mm solid metal unlike the thin metal 'wires' of a previous toy set that tended to get tripped over as they were so inconspicuous. It comes with lots of pieces to allow playing to 'real' rules however this requires a lawn 35 by 28 yards so some of the additional bits are unlikely to be used. It should be noted the set is very heavy; so heavy I thought they'd sent the wrong set. It felt heavy enough to be in a substantial wooden box. It could not be safely lifted my a child or an unfit adult or hung on a large hook on the garage wall as I had intended. I have noted the weight in case it's of interest however the reason for its weight is purely that it is a substantial, full-size set.I have just two quibbles. (i) the rules are not clear and the diagram of the 'court' incomprehensible with the arrows of play impossible to follow (should I find it's me not understanding the rules, I will amend this). There is no definition for example of how far through a hoop the ball needs to go before the point is scored. It just says 'completely' which could be ambiguous. This is not a serious flaw as I am sure I can find the rules on the internet. (ii) the bag that contains and stores the set is only just big enough and takes some fiddling to get the final mallet in. This is my only real negative and just took the edge off an otherwise perfect set.In any event, my overall impression is of a solid and well made game and well worth the cost on Amazon (which from memory had a 15% or so discount on the RRP).p.s. I agree with other reviewers, this product is not a toy - it's mallet size would suit 11+ but especially adults.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Croquet set
*by D***S on 31 August 2010*

As I think others have mentioned, this is not really a toy, but a full-size adult croquet set, complete with all the trimmings (more than we've found a use for!). The build quality seems pretty good, and all the parts come in a robust canvas carry case, which will come in handy for over-winter storage.My only complaint is that the game instructions are too brief, but a few minutes on Google solved that problem - still a rather strange oversight for what is otherwise an impressive package

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great croquet set, shame about the bag
*by P***A on 21 August 2019*

I agree with the other reviews rating the actual set as superb. Especially the beautiful, full size, nicely weighted mallets with a good quality grip. The hoops and balls are proper heavy weight, and quality. Just great. So why on earth spoil an excellent product with a zip that's an inch too short?! It's really hard work to get the mallets in and out of the bag - you have to squeeze them in carefully - and for sure the zip is going to break soon as a result. Anyway, my set is heading for Uganda so I'll probably get a local craftsman to make a fancy wooden box! And I would certainly buy the contents again.
