Great hoop!

Jessica April 24, 2026

We got this on sale and it took a few days to put this up as the box did not come with one piece that was needed to complete the BB hoop-the company was quick to send us that replacement part once we emailed and called them. The hoop is sturdy and I love how easy it is to adjust the height. Wished I bought this earlier!

Arrived quickly. Great quality and holding up well! Really like the handle component that makes changing the height very easy! Highly recommend if you are looking for a good basketball goal!

Great Value!

Jim May 2, 2026

Great value. This basketball goal is built from quality materials. A couple steps are a little tricky. So just make sure to pay close attention or you'll wind up have to redo a couple steps. Plays great and is perfect size for our driveway.

Great Customer Service

Matthew January 14, 2026

I have not put it all together yet so the use of it is yet to be determined. However, I am giving it this rating because of the customer service from Lifetime. I managed to shear a bolt and ruin the sleeved threaded nut to the backboard. I contacted them and asked them how I can get another threaded sleeve. They were kind enough to send me another packet with the parts I need.

Great product for the price. I bought it for a 10 year old just starting basketball and wanted the adjustable feature to move it to 9 ft. The adjustable feature is awesome. It shakes a little bit more than you might want when the ball hits the backboard. The only way to avoid that is to buy a much more expensive hoop or one cemented into the ground. The other comments about the difficult assembly are true. I put it together over two days, about an hour and a half each day. There are bolts that are extremely hard to tighten and likely you will end up loosening them again at future steps to fit pieces in place. The step where the backboard is attached to the pole requires balancing the hoop at a difficult angle to orient properly to the pole. That step should probably be done before building the entire pole and base. The coating they put on parts makes some of the holes slightly too small, so you have to grind them out to fit the bolts through. Drilling the metal backboard to attach plastic pieces is dangerous and can splinter a drill bit. It’s a bad assembly but the final product is a good beginner hoop and fun to play on.

Assembling took forever (6 hours x 2 people)

Ashley July 7, 2025

Assembling was a nightmare. It took forever and didn't come with required tools. Seems like some of it could have come already assembled and would have made the process much easier. Doesn't even have pre drilled holes for the backboard padding. I do think most of the instructions were detailed and easy to follow. We discovered that moving it without water in the base is difficult but once we filled it with water, we had more control of it. Backboard seems flimsy.

Very difficult assembly

George February 24, 2026

I have to say the instructions are the worst I’ve ever seen and the video is helpful but moves along too quickly. I was annoyed that I had to open different plastic bags to retrieve hardware. The instructions are sorted by section and it would have been extremely helpful to have the hardware packed in plastic by section with the part numbers on each individual bag inside the section bag. The other anniying thing was figuring out the orientation of the poles. Nowhere in the instructions does is say lay this end up or hole at bottom, etc. I found myself constantly rewinding the video to observe the proper orientation. I’ve put together many pieces of furniture, toys, etc and this was much harder than it needed to be because of the items mentioned above. Will review the actual play with the goal next.

Defective backboard

Mike March 17, 2026

Backboard mounting hole was messed up and screw would not go in correctly which caused it to pull plastic out and rendered useless Now we wait for a new goal to come in Lifetime customer service said to just return it to Walmart

Wobbly hoop. Plastic piece that holds adjustment bar in place broke after two months use. Backboard sounds flimsy anytime a ball hits it. I’ve owners a lot of lifetime hoops in my day but this one was cheap
