Great for kids

We have a 6 & 4 yr old and this hoop is the perfect size for them. The assembly took about 1 hr to complete. It was a little tricky getting the backboard connected to the post because some of the holes didn’t line up but we were able to get it to work. Don’t forget you need sand or water to fill the base when assembling it. Love that the base has a set of wheels in one end so it was easy to move around to decide where we wanted to put it. Overall it seems like a super durable hoop that will grow with our kids! Our kids have loved that it can be their size and easier for them to make baskets.

Best starter hoop for kids!

Best starter hoop for kids! And it looks like a normal hoop, not a dinky plastic kids toy. My six year old always gets frustrated when we go anywhere with a hoop because she can’t ever make her shots. She made almost every shot on this hoop and it boosted her confidence enormously. Assembly was so easy with the instructions and the BILT app that walked you through each strep with pictures and videos. I love that this hoop will be able to grow with my kids. I feel confident this will be a favorite of ours for years!

Fun for hours

The instructions were easy enough that my two teenage daughters were able to put it together on their own. We love how it is able to adjust for my older kids vs younger kids. They have all been outside playing with friends for hours! Thank you Lifetime for this awesome opportunity. This review was written because the company is awesome, gave this to us for free, but our review would be the same, even if we bought it! *Remember to purchase sand or fill the base with water for stability.

Perfect for Kids

We got this about two weeks ago and love it! Assembly was easy, instructions were helpful and included everything. Attaching the rim, backboard and pole can be a little tricky but once together adjusting the rim is very easy. Our favorite thing is that it is perfect for our young kids now and can be adjusted higher when needed. I trust lifetime products. They produce quality. Based and poke seem sturdy.

We love this Adjustable Youth Basketball goal!

We just received our basketball goal last week and love it! Shipping was lightening fast, smooth delivery, and quick & easy to set up thanks to clear instructions. Just a few days after we had a wind storm and even though it was blown about 300 meters into the back field, it's still in great working condition minus a few scratches. Speaks volumes on it's durability. Our kids and my husband's at risk youth group have all fully enjoyed this great addition. I highly recommend and if I could give 10 stars I would.

We love this hoop

We received this basketball hoop in the mail. The boys, 6 and 4, were excited to get it put up, but we needed to wait until dad got home. When he got home, he mostly put it up himself, while I helped with a few steps that he needed more hands for. It took about an hour, or so, to get it together. We used it for about a week, until my oldest daughter told me we had it backwards (as you can see in some of our photos, oops). The older kids (17, 16, and 12) have actually gotten off their devices to go outside and play since we put it up. We opted to fill ours with water, and haven't had any issues with that yet. We live on the coast, and have had a few windy days, and it's stayed up throughout the wind. We are pleased with this basketball hoop, and look forward to playing with it for years to come.

Great hoop for kids!

Got this hoop for Easter for ages 8, 5, and 3. Took about 50 minutes to assemble. Not bad to assemble at all. Love that it's REALLY STURDY like these kids are HARD on things and this hoop will last through them growing! We've had a few other brands and so far this is the best hoop we've had they haven't stopped playing with it since we put it together and they a 3 can get use out of it since it's not giant. Which I LOVE! No ones sad they aren't big enough for it.

Quick and Adjustable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently received this basketball hoop and have been outside playing with it everyday. We used the app with the video instructions and it was so easy. We needed two people for attaching the backboard and rim to the stand. Filling the base was quick and added that extra stability. I love that it has wheels to easily move around. My favorite part is that it will grow with my kids with the ease of the adjustable knob!

Great Introduction to Basketball!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great piece of equipment for the younger aspiring basketball players! The instructions were easy to follow and I was able to put it together myself with simple, readily available tools. I love that this is a legitimate, professional looking goal perfectly scaled for up and coming ballers. Check out my picture of this youth goal next to a full size goal installed in a gym! Based on the quality of the components, I think this goal will be around for quite a long time.

Great Customer Service and Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were so excited to receive our package for the Lifetime Basketball Hoop and got started assembling right away. I read the instructions, got the necessary supplies and went to work. I often have a difficult time assembling anything so I was sure to read and re-read the instructions multiple times. When I went to attach the hoop and board I realized I had incorrectly assembled the poles. Not only that, but the instruction that says “This is irreversible!” is the one I messed up on even though I had checked three times and was sure I was doing it correctly. I was so stressed out that I had done that. Thankfully when I called customer service they told me they allow a one time customer assembly error and sent me out new poles free of charge. They saved the day! When I received the new poles I was able to quickly put it together and get my basketball loving girl playing. I suggest if you have difficult times following instructions, like myself, to assemble along with the suggested video that comes with the assembly instructions. I should have done that the first time. I really like the adjustable hoop height so that it can grow with my daughter. I can also put it higher if my husband and I want to play. The other feature I like is that it easily rolls out of the way. The durability seems really great. The metal is well coated with protective paint and the plastic bottom is thick and will definitely withstand play and the elements.
