Garbage toy. Unless you have 10+ feet of open space on a completely smooth surface, it gets stuck and the wheels stop working. After getting stuck a couple of times it started making a terrible sound and now doesn’t work at all. Got maybe 10 minutes of fun out of it. Birthday boy was very disappointed.
Poor design, cant use

Returning. The wheels don’t rotate so the hoop can only travel in one giant circle - but unless you have a ginormous room with no furniture in it, it just bangs into a piece of furniture or wall and then stops working. Literally couldn’t even use it once to play.

I held onto this basketball hoop for 8 months before gifting it to my son for his birthday. Sadly, it doesn’t keep score or move around like advertised and I missed the return window. 🤦🏻♀️

It worked for the first run or two. After that, it stopped rolling. You can hear the motor, and if you pick it up you can see the wheels turn (if you push in the 3rd wheel to activate it). But it’s like it can’t get traction or the motor weakened so it couldn’t move anymore. I tried new batteries, but the issue remained. I had to return it unfortunately. For a very short time, it was pretty cool and fun.

Unfortunately I should have read the reviews first. Cool idea, but does not work properly at all. If it runs into something it stops. It shuts off all the time doesn’t work like it says. Don’t buy.

Terrible product and waste of money. I purchased for a Christmas present for my son, and he loved it, finally got batteries today, and it literally doesn’t move. You shoot one basketball into the basket and it stops moving or doing anything. I will be returning to target tomorrow!

I am beyond shocked that it doesn’t bounce off of the things it runs into and continue on. It’s the silliest toy I’ve ever seen. Unless your playing with it on a full sized basketball court, the toy is a complete waste. Epic Fail, Franklin!

What a piece of garbage. Not work on carpets. When on tile floor and turns on nothing happens, it moves once and then nothing. What a waste

Target shopper - 11 months ago, Verified purchaser
Great idea, sadly TOTAL GARBAGE. I saw this in the store in Sept and thought it would make a great Christmas present. Had I seen it online along with the reviews I never would have purchased it! UGH. 2 sets of brand new batteries and the thing won't even turn on. An overpriced piece of junk, and now I'm fearful I might have missed the return deadline and will be out $35 (+ the cost of C batteries) for nothing since an exchange isn't even possible since it is sold out.
Safety hazard!

My husband bought this for our toddler thinking it would be a fun christmas gift to chase around and play with. The motorized wheel that makes it moved stopped working entirely two days after Christmas, and the battery door does not stay in place, even when screwed in completely with the screw provided. This takes 4 C batteries and it's not acceptable for a new toy (or any toy) to be dropping batteries on the floor where children and pets can gain access. It's a great toy idea executed very poorly. Save yourself the time and money!

This was a Christmas gift and it doesn’t work properly! When “on” it stays on for a few seconds then shuts off. Would not recommend at all! Waste of money
Not enough options for play area needed.

Was useless unless you have an open 10ft to make a circle for it to move. If they had made the circle size adjustable and/or you were able to make it stationary, it would have at least 3 stars.

Bought this for my son for Christmas. He was so excited when he opened it and extremely disappointed when it wouldn’t turn on, we took it back to the store today and they didn’t have anymore and it is out of stock online. Extremely disappointing.
