SpaldingMomentous EZ Assembly Portable Adjustable Outdoor Basketball Hoop – Assembles in 30 Minutes or Less

Truly easy to put together. Kids feel like this is the real deal hoop and it is a quality backboard and rim. The ability to drop down the hoop in the heavy winds is a great function although after filling the base and adding some sand bags I have not had to use the feature again. It is a great hoop at a reasonable price.

I bought this as a replacement for another Spalding hoop that was a multi-hour setup and breakdown. The setup on this is absolutely genius! The instructions were laid out very well, both via the video and printed booklet. I am a small (5’1”, 120lbs) but strong lady and I was able to completely unbox and begin the setup solo. There are definitely multiple steps that require 2 people - attaching the backboard and rim, and then raising the backboard and pole into the upright position and securing it. My 80yo 5’9” and in-shape father and I completed it without much difficulty (although a little more height on either one of us would have been helpful). In total it took about an hour, including unboxing, reviewing the video and written instructions, and then actually assembling the unit. All parts were packaged and labeled according to the associated step in the build. Nuts and screws threaded easily.This is a very sturdy unit with a large base and a pole/hoop that are situated more towards the center of the base. I filled the base with water and added 100lbs of sand on the rear of the base as extra precaution since it is on an ever-so-slight downhill slope. The raising and lower mechanism is so smooth my 11yo can do it with ease. My son loves the sound of the backboard, saying it doesn’t sound like the “cheap hoops some other kids have” 😆It’s more pricey than some other hoops, but in my opinion. the ease of assembly and overall sturdiness make the higher price worth it!

I agree with John Ryan's review. The model numbers are newer and the arm has clearly been reinforced. This is a safe product and seller.The video was helpful. Both paper and video directions came in handy. Realistically, it takes an hour to put together. It is probably simpler to put together than a lot of other hoops on the market.I filled the base with water and 2 Gallons of bio safe -100F Antifreeze. To be safe, I also added a bag with 120lbs of sand onto of the base. For security, I added a Samsung SmartTag Plus to the frame.My kids love it, especially the 8ft to 10ft crank option. We've been using our hoop every day. The board and base are solid. There is barely any reverb after the ball hits.

First of all 30 minutes or less is a bit misleading. If you prep every single socket wrench, which you would need 4-5 and you watch the installation video on the website multiple times you might get this up in 30 minutes or less with two people, otherwise it's about an hour or two.Instructions are ok, but way easier with watching the installation video on the website.The base is a bit weak, I had to stand on the base to raise the backboard up and I popped one of the plugs out and the silica gel I used exploded out of the whole so be careful not to step on the base.The backboard is going to have some weird markings on the backside where there isn't a protective film, but honestly it's not a big deal, it's an outdoor hoop and will get messed up from mother nature anyways.

Very sturdy product. Came with all pieces. Easy to adjust.

bought this Spalding basketball hoop expecting a solid setup for practicing shots in the driveway. Unfortunately, the design is fundamentally flawed. The base is weighted with water (which is fine), but the problem is that the rim and backboard don’t cantilever far enough from the base. Every time you make a basket, the ball drops straight down and bounces off the base, ricocheting in unpredictable directions. Instead of practicing your shooting form or working on rebounds, you end up constantly chasing the ball around because it flies off in every direction. It completely defeats the purpose of having a hoop in the first place. Very disappointed, and I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone serious about practicing their basketball skills.

Easy to adjust the height and very sturdy. My son uses this everyday.

Great quality basketball 🏀 court hands down love it
