Silverback SBX Portable Basketball System 50 inch Steel Backboard, Gray

From the moment I unboxed this goal I was amazed! The build quality and the design top notch. I assembled this by myself so it took about a half hour longer than advertised. Once assembled and water added to the base…The stability was incredible. I weigh about 175 and I could hang on the rim and bounce up and down and it never even flinched or considered tipping over. Moving it around with its wheel barrel design is so easy. Not only all this but, it’s made right here in basketball country…Indiana, USA! I’d definitely recommend this product

Good quality. Easy to raise and lower. Took about 3 hours to assemble. With water used to weigh down, it is not really easy to move. So far, has gotten a lot of use.

The quality of materials seems really good. The backboard is solid, and the metal of the rim and pole are more robust. The nuts/bolts are well organized, and the manual is easy to follow. The fact that it has been on sale for several weeks doesn't hurt either. I think we will be able to enjoy this hoop for several years.

Very sturdy portable basketball goal. This is the second one of these I've purchased, with the first in use for at least three years now. Excellent assembly instructions and well organized parts and hardware. It took me between three and four hours to assemble.

Quality hoop. Not too bad to put together. The "90 minute" assembly would be by somebody who already knows how these things go together without needing the instructions, but the pieces were clearly labeled and the instructions were satisfactory. I'd consider it a good upgrade to the previous hoop we had to replace, which was also a portable system with a popular brand. My son weighs about 135 and will dunk on it, without pulling down the rim, and it holds up well. Definite better quality than your entry level portable hoops. I'm happy with the purchase.

Solid construction and easy instructions to follow. Much better wobble control than others I've tried out at similar price points. Moving it around is also easy even for 1 person. Only thing is it took longer than 90 min to put together; took me 4-5 hours by myself but I'm very methodical in doing anything.

Mostly easy assembly, done by my husband and son. Great quality

I just assembled it and it wasn't too difficult. I'm not very handy (though my wife is) and we got it assembled in a couple hours. It's easy to move and easy to adjust the height, which isn't always true for these kinds of units. The backboard has the deadening effect for bank shots that is common for these units, but not true to play on a basketball court. The oddest feature is that, if you make a shot on the 10-foot setting, there's a good chance the ball will hit the lip of the base and deflect 50 feet away. It's like punishment for making the shot. Lower settings don't have this feature as much.

It was shipped from 3rd party seller VIPoutlet and the box was completely destroyed, how the seller or FedEx allowed the product to move to my location is still baffling, it was even labeled wrong on the website.

Don't buy this product. I had the bottom filled with sand and bungee corded to my chain link fence and it still blew over in the wind and the backboard shattered in the grass! Very poor quality. Save your money and just buy a cheap one for your kids because ones like that that are supposed to be stronger are still just at poorly made. Very disappointed and angry.
