I bought this for my son and his friends who use it all the rime. They only issue we've experienced is that water doesn't work. They boys seem to be able to knock it down so I filled the base with sand and it works wonderfully. I would recommend this product to any family but would suggest the use of sand instead of water.

This Lifetime basketball hoop is just awful. About one hour into the assembly of the first hoop I bought, a part broke. I returned the entire hoop to the store and picked up a second hoop. Two hours into the assembly of that hoop, I found that a part was missing. Headed back to the store for the third time in three days to see if I can open a box and get the one part I’m missing. Please consider another brand when looking for a basketball hoop.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the Action Grip Portable Basketball System. During the assembly we needed a replacement bolt. I called the company (800 # listed on the front of the assembly instructions - genius!). It was easy to get through to a live person and they were happy to send a replacement part free of charge and it came in a few days (sooner than they told me it would). Also once we put it up we found a few untied knots in the net that we couldn't retie. I called CS again and same story - happy tos send a replacement net at no charge. Lastly the product was reasonably priced and very good quality.

It took forever and a half for us to decipher the directions and how to put the pieces together. We called/ chatted for help several times and had to invite friends over to help assemble it. Please work on clarifying directions so that it does not take so long. That said, the assembled product is great to use.

Purchased in Feb 1027 and our son loves it!! Was a little challenging putting together, but instructions were detailed enough for 2 people to easily put it together. In Oct 2017 the base developed a small leak which was a manufacturing defect. Customer Service reviewed the pictures sent and then sent a replacement without delay. What great customer service!! I wish more companies were this attentive to a customers needs..

Just put it up and played a game on it. First impressions are this is an amazingly good buy. A solid, obviously well built and seemly durable piece of equipment. Assembly is lengthy but instructions are very well done & walk step by step. Bags of parts are labeled for each section of the assembly process. Go slow. Pay very close attention Hard parts: 1) Getting axle thru base. After a couple of tries where it was not even close, I sliced the holes another 1/4" larger. That did it. Tip: If assembling alone, use a clamp with a jig as your second pair of hand push the axle into the second hole while banging it in. 2) If on grass do NOT fill base until its positioned. Wow this was a mistake! The wheels roll great on hard surface but sink into the ground and then there is no moving it. It was hard to get it up on plywood and walking it in plank by plank took a long time The 'base gel' sold elsewhere seems to work really well. I did not want to use sand. The base is extremely heavy and the goal is held solidly Can you assemble alone? Yes. But its not easy. Now that its up? Its fantastic. Solid. No more shake or wobble that you get at a public park's goal. The hoop is sturdy. The backboard is large and you can tell it has a steel frame. Very pleased and impressed with this purchase.

ProductI really loved my basketball hoop, thank you very much for making high quality products!

We love this basketball hoop, we have been shooting everyday since we got it!

Being able to follow along with the You Tube assembly video was great!
