I received this item today and as we were putting it together, we realized that we were missing an entire package of the base hardware. I’m sure that this hoop is great, but because of the inconvenience of having to put it together without specific items required for optimum performance — I have to give this item 1 star. Mistakes happen: I’m completely aware of that – however, having an eight year old completely disappointed outweighs any understanding and patience for such negligence. An eight year old’s birthday only happens once and now what he is going to remember is utter disappointment. It’s really a shame.

The Lifetime Pro appeared to be the perfect gift; stylish, portable, and adjustable…..until I began putting it together the day prior to Christmas.The necessary parts/sizes needed to asure the structure is safe and secure were not included. Therefore, as long as there is a Home Depot close you will be good to go, however, I suggest putting your goal together long before you will need it, to make sure you are not missing something even more signifigant.

It’s not expensive, I give it that, but the plastic is way too thin where screws tighen, especially the backboard. And the base HAS to have some weight either on it or in it, otherwise it can tip over very easily due to the inherent in-balance. The rolling wheel mechanism should also be secured by bolts and nuts instead of a shaft rolled into grooves. Otherwise it does its job, but never try to hang onto the hoop, the whole thing will break. I didn’t bother to fill the base with water or sand and simply placed something heavy on it, but one time it was removed by accident and the stand fell forward. The V-shaped bracket behind the backboard promptly broke free from the bolt/nut secured to that thin plastic wall of the backboard. My mistake, but really wish it is built with higher grade material, or reinforce the nut area better or simply add thickness around that area.

I was so happy to receive this goal. My daughter is over the moon with it and we are happy as well. I was pleased with the timeliness and the efficiency of the order. Thank you Amazon and Lifetime for a job well done.
