User Ratings and Reviews
3 Stars Croquet Sixpack
The set arrived in it’s own carrying case and in good condition. The six mallets and the stakes are made from a good quality hardwood and the set includes all items necessary to play a rousing game of croquet. The balls are a bit small based on my memory of other sets I have used but are certainly playable. Time will tell about the durability of the items but summer will certainly include several challenging games of croquet in this household.
4 Stars fun
I have never played Croquet it was fun and the set is really nice all wood and the carrying case is nylon but well made!!
4 Stars An amazing deal for a good croquet set
I actually bought this game just for the hoops as I needed a set and this entire croquet set cost less than merely purchasing a set of wickets by themselves. This set will not endure a lot of abuse and probably wouldn’t last more than a couple of years, but it is a bargain. I purchased a set that cost 13 times what I paid for this, and it is definitely not 13 times better. Yes, the balls are lightweight and the construction and wood quality are not superb, but for what you pay for this set you definitely get your money’s worth.
3 Stars Wooden Croquet Set
Halex Select 6 Player Croquet Set in Deluxe Carry Case
This is a nice set. Sturdy and lots of back yard fun. The only thing I don’t like is that in order for the mallets to fit back into the carry case for storage, you have to unscrew the head from the handle. Then each time you play you have to reassemble the mallets.
4 Stars Great for little kids – Use Wood Glue
I was able to get this set at a local retailer for only $25, needless to say it was a no brainier compared to the much more expensive sets. The proportions are perfect for children under 9 years old. This is not an adult set, but you can make it work even if you’re really tall (just bend a bit more!). The set includes every thing you will need and the one sheet instructions shows a diagram of a proper court. The nylon bad holds everything, including the assembled sticks.
The problem with most of these assemble / dissemble Croquet sets is the handles always fall off in due time. So, I used very good quality wood glue (get the indoor / outdoor glue – not just indoor) and put it on both sides of the groves in the mallet head, then hand twist tight and let it dry.
You will be creating essentially 6 permanent sticks. The directions are fairly complex, but Halex Corporation is part of Regent Sports (think Spalding too). So, you can get decent customer support on most of the items they sell, plus they print all the rules of the major outdoor games on their site (Bocce, Croquet, Badminton, etc.) :
