Good system but be prepared to spend the time needed to install it Apr 10, 2007
By A. Irani
I wanted to get an in ground system and in retrospect I think I made a sound decision to purchased this particular item. The only thing I was a bit surprised by once I received it, is the amount of time and resources it took to install it. I used about 500 lbs of concrete in the installation process! 380 lbs went into the ground and another 120 lbs went inside the tubing (this is required for warranty and performance purposes). Since I only worked on weekends, it took me 10 days from start to finish. You have to wait twice at least for 24 hours to let the concrete cure. So, the first weekend I dug the hole, installed the in-ground sleeve and assembled the system. The second weekend I poured concrete into the metal tubing and the next day installed the whole thing into the in-ground sleeve.
Once installed, it does seem pretty sturdy. The height adjustment is very smooth and easy for any adult to adjust. Overall, it is very decent looking and a good value.

 Excellent quality at a great price. Jul 08, 2007
By K. Cipar
I am very pleased with this basketball system. It is very well built and was easy to assemble. The directions are well written and minimal tools are required. I was impressed at how easy it is to adjust the hoop to different heights with hardly any effort. I would definitely recommend this basketball system to others. Great product!

Greatest Bang for the Buck! Jul 01, 2008
By Todd Biggs
I did much research, and decided on this in-ground hoop combo. I liked the width of the backboard for the price. I have 3 young sons, and bought this for them to grow up with. We have already had 300$ of enjoyment out of the hoop in the two weeks I have had it up. It did take 3 days before we could play on it (1 day for base, 1 day for pole, 1 day for both to dry). No regrets a great purchase!!!

 not very sturdy May 19, 2008
By Michelle L. Lwson
"mlynn"
Bought this item for my sons birthday, had it up 2 days and the lever that raises it up and down broke. every time he would shoot it would fall straight down. Called the company and they were really nice and replaced the piece. So if you play alot of basketball be weary of this goal not really very sturdy.
Good Value Jun 20, 2009
By B. Estes
The installation instructions were vague and the parts and hardware were not labeled and the illustrations were not very good, so the installation took a while. The finished product does work pretty well though. A good product for the money. I would purchase this again.
