I really like this wheel. I am teaching myself to throw watching YouTube. This wheel is heavy duty. Mine was quiet. I know some are not. So I got lucky there. But this has one major issue that I did find a hack for. The splash pan is impossible to take off and put on. I looked it over carefully and figured out it was a design flaw in the clips that hold the 2 pieces together. They made it with no space for the clip to widen to release the round tab. I used my pocket knife and whittled away at the space on the sides of the clips. When I had widened it enough to fit a little rasp in there, I widened it some more that way. Once that was widened enough for the clip to open, it snaps on and off securely. I don't know why they dont make it with bat pins. That'll be another hack I'll have to do, I guess.
