Rank #9 in Best Automatic Dog Ball Launcher 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Range Claims That Don't Add Up
TIEXITOR Automatic Dog Ball Launcher, 6 Balls, Blue
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
TIEXITOR's automatic ball launcher is number 9 in our guide to automatic ball launchers. It is the £43.99 option: a rechargeable unit with three launch settings — 19 ft, 32 ft and 45 ft — and six 2.28 in ETPU tennis balls in the box, plus a USB charging cable. It carries a 3.8 rating from 94 ratings.
The middle price does not buy the middle range. The two cheapest launchers in the guide, at £34.99, claim up to 14 m (46 ft); the dearest, at £59.99, claims 12 m (39 ft); this one at £43.99 claims 45 ft, roughly 13.7 m, which is more reach than the most expensive model advertises. The listing also contradicts itself in two visible places: the product name calls the launcher Blue while the specification table lists the colour as Green, and the bullets describe indoor, backyard and park use while the specification table gives indoor usage only and rates it not water resistant. Everything on this page comes from that Amazon listing, not from any test of ours.
How those 94 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 3.8 stars.

Questions people ask
How far can the TIEXITOR USTI157-6B throw a ball?
The listing gives three distance modes - 19 ft, 32 ft and 45 ft - switched with a single button.
Are the balls included, and what size are they?
Yes. Six 2.28 in (58 mm) ETPU tennis balls are included, along with a USB charging cable. That 2.28 in diameter puts the TIEXITOR in the larger of the two ball sizes used across the launchers in our guide.

Neither is needed for play: the TIEXITOR USTI157-6B has a built-in 2,000 mAh lithium battery and charges over USB, giving 5-6 hours of use per charge. The listing does not state a charging time.
Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
Both answers appear in the same listing. The bullets say indoors, the backyard and the park; the specification table says indoor usage only and lists the water resistance level as not water resistant.

The product name says Blue. The specification table lists the colour as Green, and the pattern as solid.
Which dogs is it meant for?
The listing says small and medium breeds and describes the age range as adult dogs (small to medium). The breed size field reads Small.
