Lifetime Adjustable Portable Basketball Hoop, 44 in. Impact

I received the basketball hope very quickly after order placement. My surprise, the box is small, which is a bonus. I am a big fan of being able to put my summer “toys’ away in the shed when winter hits and this packs up super easily. Everything telescopes and goes together again so nicely. Second of all, assembly is super easy. A hot fall day and less than 30 minutes and it was up and ready to go. Which is good, because kids can be impatient when they want to play some hoops. Once put together it was light and easy to move, fill the counterbalance reservoir with water, plug it, and play. Rebounds like a dream, height adjustment, easy peasy. Thoroughly thrilled with this hoop (which is why I stick to Lifetime products). The quality is high and I know this will last a long time. For now we will shoot the hoops until winter hits and then it’ll be time to chase our next lifetime buy, maybe it’ll be sleds next!

Finally.... A soccer net that checks all the boxes! Easy Assembly ✔️ Good Size ✔️ Durable ✔️ Compact Storage ✔️ Kid and Parent Approved ✔️ This net was extremely easy to set up, my 8 and 5 year old were able to help set it up with zero issues or tears! It was the perfect size for my kids to practice their soccer skills in our backyard. The storage bag held everything great and was compact for storage. It is made out of quality material and will truly be a "Lifetime' product. My family gives this net a solid 10/10.

The basketball hoop is great. Normally setting up something big like a basketball hoop can be tricky by yourself. This hoop I could set up by myself. The video included in the instruction book was great. It even showed how to use a table to do the final steps without a second person. The instruction booklet was very helpful; I do recommend the video as well. The video makes it even easier to follow the steps correctly. There is one step that you cannot reverse (it warns you before you complete it). The parts were easy to find, the pictures in the booklet made it easy to find which bolt you need. As far as the product itself, this hoop is great! The quality is great and I think this basketball hoop will last us for years to come! I do want to put in the warning if you use water instead of sand, it says to empty the base before winter. You do not want the water to freeze and expand. I did put in water for now and plan to put sand in it before winter. We were too excited to use it to wait for the sand. I do not worry about it falling over once the base is filled. I could not move it by myself. I had to have someone help me tip it so I could use the wheels. Once I got it tipped to use the wheels, I could easily move it across the driveway. My son has been a huge fan of the computer and TV. Once he was interested in basketball, this was a great tool to help him practice. He is suddenly dribbling balls everywhere and I find him outside shooting hoops often. I am glad the hoop is adjustable as he grows and improves I can move the hoop up until it is official height.

We have had this hoop for a couple weeks now. It was super easy to setup and all of the tools and parts were easy to decipher on where they went. It took roughly an hour as I had my 13 and 15 year old helping me. We used water in the base and so far it has withstood some significant wind storms. There are two cons that I have about it. The first is the backboard. It is kind of flimsy and the ball doesnt bounce off of it very well. The second is the height adjustment. It takes at least an adult or two teens to lean it down and unscrew the bolt to slide it up or down. Other than that I am very happy with the product.
