Review: Arrived very promptly, and looked forward to setting this up before my son arrived home from school. However easy assembly its not! First there were no assembly instructions, so it was guess work which bit fitted where, and because of the of the construction you need two people or 4 hands to hold the parts together to assemble it, we also found that it was better to use a socket set rather than the two spanners that came with it. However once assembled and suitably weighted, Id personally opt for sand and some kind of weight on top of the box as it rocked alarmingly when the ball hit the back board. For a budget range/starter net its not bad. Its worth knowing that the back board can actually be screwed to a wall at a later date ie when the child reaches the max height of the posts.

Review: Very very disappointed with this product. We built as per the instructions. Fell apart within a few hours of use. Backboard too flimsy to take a ball bouncing off it. Total waste of money. Trying to return to the company but now having to pay the cost of postage back. Big item to post.
