Make no mistake this is a ruggedly made, high quality basketball set that is made to grow as your child grows. It's big, it takes a lot of room, so take that into consideration. You will want to fill the base with sand or water at some point after you add the second pole. The backboard is big and is slightly top heavy. The addition of a ball retriever (plastic device that hangs below the basket and will shoot the ball back to you) is a nice feature. An additional ball would have been nice, but that's a nitpick for such a nice set. You can play with larger balls as your child grows as well. The rim is very big. My 19 month old son loves this hoop. He can't really shoot the ball yet but he can "dunk" it pretty well. He enjoys throwing the ball at the hoop and also yells "good shot" after each attempt. Not only does he enjoy it but the adults that come to our home always are drawn to it. First they comment on how cool it looks and what a neat toy it is, next thing I know i have three-on-three basketball on a 3 foot hoop in my family room! Crazy good fun for kids and adults alike. This hoop is height adjustable which is why I bought it so as my son grows I can raise the basket to accomodate his skill level. I have a full size hoop in the driveway and now when we pull into the house my son points and always asks to "play basketball." I was skeptical of quality since it was only forty nine bucks but the hoop is very durable and should last many years, even when we move it outside. I bought a spare basketball (it comes with one ball) so two kids or adults can shoot around at the same time. The hoop does appear to "lean" forward a bit since my son "dunks" the ball and pulls on the rim but thats usually an indication that it is ready to be raised to the next height setting. Overall a great purchase for the price. Our son is two and a half, just over two when we purchased this. He uses it all the time, it seems very durable, works great, and has good balance even without filling with sand. We keep this inside right now and he shoots hoops every night. If he reaches up and grabs the net, he can pull it down on himself, as we have no sand in it right now, but it's light enough, that it shouldn't hurt him much even if he does. With a little coaching, he doesn't even pull down on it any more, and we've never had a problem. If you're worried about this at all, just fill it with some sand and this won't be an issue. We are very pleased with the looks, practicality, and durability of this product. From all of the basketball hoops we looked at, I truly believe this was the best for our needs, and we still have a lot of growing we can do with the adjustable backboard. I bought one of the Grow to Pro hoops a couple of weeks ago for indoors, and liked it so much (well, my 4-year old son did also), that I bought another one for outdoors. It is built well, relatively easy to put together, and is a much better quality hoop than many of the other models out there. I filled the base on the outdoor hoop with water, and it seems that it will hold up ok outdoors.
You can easily put on and take off the ball return, so you can see if you like it. It sticks out a bit, so we took it off indoors where space is tighter. We left the ball return on for the outdoor hoop. The hoop is big, so it can accomodate the included ball, or other mini balls (or I suppose bigger basketballs as well--just haven't tried one with it).
Basically, I had bought one of the real basketball hoops for our driveway, but soon realized that even at its lowest point (7 feet), it is just too high for little kids. Hence, why I bought this one for outdoors. Now, my son and his friends can play as much as they want on the Fisher Price.
Although this deserves a 5 rating, it would be even better if you could adjust by 1/2 foot, instead of only by a whole foot. My son is a bit too tall for the 4-foot height, but a bit too short for the 5-foot height. But it is not a dealbreaker.
