If your child likes collecting bugs like mine, you need this net. It is so well constructed that I can envision it lasting for years. I also like the fact that you can add your own wooden handle. We got a wood dowel painting pole from Home Depot and attached it, so now my daughter can reach high places that other nets could not.

The price is amazing for a net of this quality. You will not be disappointed.

I ordered two of these nets last Saturday. It arrived in the mail packaged carefully. I was blown away with the quality and sturdiness. Yes they are large. This is actually a professional net and I bet you will not find a better deal. I searched all over the internet for something like this and also wasted money on the cheap ones found at the bigbox stores. Cool thing is that this is the manufacturer, not a reseller. The hardware is sturdy aluminum. Not what you would expect for under $10. I doubt you will ever have to replace the bag unless you are terribly destructive.

This a great quality net, and the price is also great, just what I was looking for. I so glade that you still can buy " Made in USA ".

Received my order very quickly. It is a large strong net. You will need to get a handle for it, but that was no problem. Go to any building supply for that. Bought it for my little boy to catch insects and aquatic animals. He loves it.

I knew that it would come without a handle so that didn't bother me in the least bit, I just got a leftover stick from a recent project and screwed it on. It's big enough that you don't have to be perfect at every swing to make that great catch. I've caught tons of butterflies with this net. The mesh is perfect for gentle handling and despite my numerous run-ins with sticker bushes, it is extremely durable and not fragile at all. I would recommend this to anyone.
