Q: Is it better to use sand or water in the base?

submitted by Amanda - 4 months ago

  • A: For safety reasons, we recommend that sand be used instead of water to fill the Base. If a leak develops, water could run out unnoticed, allowing the system to fall over, resulting in serious personal injuries, or property damage. If using water, check the base carefully for leaks. If a leak is found, lay the system down on the ground and call Customer Service. Do not use, stand up, or play on a leaking system. Thank you for your inquiry.

Q: Does the 50 inch backboard include the black trim all the way around or is it measured at the bottom where U shaped trim is added and wider. What exactly does the 50 inches include?

submitted by Jay - 5 years ago

  • A: The 50 inches is measured diagonally similar to the way a television is measured. The Polycarbonate sheet measures 25 in. x 44 in. x .098 in. The frame adds additional width around that. It measures 47.86 in. at the top and 49.5 in. at the bottom where the frame is wider.

    Great for the price

    Easy installation and very affordable. I was able to complete almost all of it by myself. Only at the end did I need assistance with one other person when tilting it to stand up.

    Assembly is tedious but not difficult

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good hoop for the price, and assembly was not too difficult although I would say it’s much easier with two people for some parts. Also it helps to have a full ratchet set because hand wrenches won’t cut it when you are trying to tighten a lot of the bolts and nuts. Really interested to see how well it holds up in the Florida weather.

    1 day old

    I’ve only had it for 1 day. Assembly took about 2-3hrs. Some annoying stuff but that was likely a user issue. Works well.

    Great addition to keep kids active and away from SCREENS!

    Purchased 2 weeks ago when on sale at a BJ's. Set up is two adults or one adult and a teenager. Once assembled and placed where we wanted it in driveway we filled with water and also put a 50lb sand bag on top to prevent any wobbling from strong winds. Kids love it and it's great that it lowers to 8 feet to build confidence for the littles. Parents love it to get kids outside and play with them and keeps them away from screens. Also, this is great as it's something one sibling can do by themselves just taking shots. I would recommend anyone who has room in their driveway to get one of these.

    Is my warranty registered? Why am I being asked for a review?

    I am registering a warranty after following a QR code and now I’m filling in a review. Why? Not sure. What’s this review field doing in the warranty registration? Questions questions questions. But not a great review.
