A few months ago when I went to our local sports to to buy a goal for my kids I became discouraged. I didn't realize how much I would have to spend to get a quality goal. I searched online and compared all the different goals and found the Mega Slam 60 the best for our needs. To me, it seemed that you get more for your money with this brand, and the warranty is a nice bonus. Shipping was quick for such a large item and when it arrived it was packed very well. For me, the hardest part of the install was digging the hole. Removing dirt from a 48" deep hole is not easy. The pouring 28 bags of concrete is made a lot easier with a mixer. I think we had it done in about an hour. The install of the actual goal was easier than I expected. The instructions say 4 people but we easily did it with 3. Honestly 2 strong guys and someone to put the bolts in would be fine. The pole is heavy but it was not difficult for 2 guys and someone to guide the bottom over the bolts and put on the nuts and washers. The backboard is a lot heavier than you would think and is probably the hardest part. We were still able to install it with 2 guys and the 3rd installing the bolts. The height is very easy to adjust and the removable handle is very nice, because.... you know.....kids. We have received lots of compliments from people walking or driving by. "It looks like you got the nice one!" is the comment that I remember.
