This croquet set arrived just in time for our family's visit, so it was too late to send it back. We used it but I was embarrassed by its poor quality. The mallets are full-size but are too lightweight and look like they have been painted by a messy toddler. The balls look OK, but I see another reviewer saying they will chip quickly. Can't wait. The bag seemed well-made, but we don't play with the bag.
I love croquet and our last set lasted for about 20 years, even though it was often left out in all weathers. I can't imagine this set lasting through a whole summer.
