Its also the one with the lowest price.
We were missing one bolt from the instructions. It was kinda important (kept the backboard on the pole). Luckily, I found another one in my can of spares I keep around the garage.
The instructions at one point indicate that two adults are required. This should have been modified for one small caveat: each of the two adults need four arms each. My buddy and I needed the help of a bicycle to hold up the pole while I held the rim and backboard against the pole while he was underneath the backboard blindly turning screws. We both have two arms (only).
The instructions are not the greatest, but at least the parts you need are bagged together per step. That's really handy.
The backboard is thick but hollow plastic.
Finally got it up and noticed right away it was leaning forward about 20 degrees. Solved that problem by putting a pair of 2x4 planks of wood under the front of it. Pole is straight now. I filled mine with water, it is more than heavy enough to stay up. This Lifetime 1221 Portable Basketball System is excellent for small kids. It arrived within a few days of ordering from Amazon. Not being a great do-it-yourselfer, I made sure that I had everything I needed before trying to assemble the System: bought the several bags of sand; made sure I had all the tools as instructed; checked to make sure all the parts were included as listed.
As mentioned in other reviews, the most difficult part was attaching the rim to the backboard to the pole all at once. It took me and my wife and the two kids to get through it, but we made it through the sweat and tears (it was hot that day!). Make sure you only hand-tighten when first attaching the rim to the backboard to the pole; we forgot and had to un-do all our hard work before completing the last few steps. We filled with sand rather than water for the system to be more stable, and it sure is.
Not really for dunking I guess (but I haven't really tried), and the backboard doesn't provide great bounce, but really, nobody should be complaining about these minor items for this price. This is my first purchase of a "Lifetime" product, and I am impressed by its good quality, including the assembly instructions.
The kids are having a ball everyday... me, too! Enjoy!
