    I ordered this hoop on Dec. 2 to ensure my son would have it for Christmas. I recieved it on Dec 7 only to find that the box was opened and the assebley parts were falling out. I called UPS and Amazon. Amazon told me they would send me a return label but, now I had to get the box to the Post Office to be shipped back. My question: Why do you think I had Amazoon send it to me in the first place? This is a very heavy box and very large. I used amazon so I would not have to worry about lifting or would it fit in my car!!! Now because the company they hired to get the package to me has damaged my item I am now the responsible party. What type of crap is this? Next time I will think twice because this is not worth the hassel. If they can arrange for someone to drop off their products then they should be able to arrange for someone to pick up their items. Rating: 4 / 5

    For an in the ground basketball goal this is a great buy. It took me and my father about 3 hours to put it together. Instructions were adequate. It would have been easier if the larger pieces were labeled. I highly suggest buying the in Lifetime Ground Sleeve for 3.5 Inch Round Poles. It made installation easier and I can now remove the goal if we ever move or if a hurricane is coming.

    I went to Lowes and bought a cardboard cement tube, four 80 pound bags of concrete, and four two foot pieces of rebar. I put the ground sleeve in the concrete per the instructions and let it sit for a few days before installing the goal into the sleeve.

    I would say the biggest knock on this system is the backboard itself. I am sure the polycarbonate backboard will hold up fine, but it is just very thin.

    The goal adjusts heights really really easy and that is a great thing for growing kids.

    Seems to be good quality - took 2 men to put it together, which was expected. Hoping it holds up in Michigan winters. Very pleased, my grandson is exstatic over it! Highly recommended. Rating: 5 / 5

    While the installation was a bit cumbersome, the height-changing mechanism is a pleasant surprise! I expected it to be annoying at best, but it is working fantastically! I can lower it for my little ones and then easily change to regulation size when the adults want to play. Excellent product! Have owned and used it for 1 month. Rating: 5 / 5

    This was a great price for a very nice basketball system. It easily raises and lowers between 7.5-10 feet. Looks great and is very stable if you correctly install. It is not easy to install but, I don't think any of them are. It is fairly time consuming to do correctly.
    My kids love it and use it every day. I would buy it again. Rating: 5 / 5
