Easy to install and top quality hoop. We now have neighbor kids constantly wanting to play ball on our hoop, which is great. Definitely would recommend it.

I do not normally write reviews but when I get a product that I love I think it is worth shouting out about it. My son 9 years old loves playing basketball, his younger brother 4 is following in the same footsteps. My previous basketball hoop was a free standing ~$350 setup. The acrylic backboard lasted for about 4 years before it shattered and a hole developed in the box area. I decided that I wanted to do a proper upgrade and started my research online. There are many products to choose from and I decided to go with the Mega Slam as the Heavy Duty side of it was key for me. Digging the hole was a bit of a challenge... I hit the first rock at only 6 inches deep... this is what you get here in San Antonio. I managed to dig up to 36 inches before I hit solid slab rock. I drilled into the rock and at 24 inches deep I sill did not get through it. I decided to use it to my advantage. I drilled 5 holes in various spots on the slab and added Quikrete high strength anchoring epoxy to the rebar and hammered them in so I had a snug fit and the epoxy would add the additional hold. This required me to add a lot less concrete obviously but I knew I had a strong foundation. What I liked about the packaging is that they exactly labeled on the outside of the box with the location of the base and rebar. This allowed me to take just that out and get the concrete pored and set. I allowed 4 days for the concrete to set fully before I started the assembly. Instructions were clear and the parts labeled well. I was able to install the full system (excluding the backboard) all by myself (I know that is not recommended but I wanted to get it done). I was able to move the backboard onto my Tundra truck and reverse it to the system and attach it pretty easily. This is most definitely one of the best purchases I have made. My son and I love it and feels and looks super professional. By the looks of it, it should stand the test of time.
