Great Hoop - Love the Clear Backboard!
This has been a huge hit since we got it. I did a lot of research & this was the best product for our needs and price range. I am very glad we paid a little more & got the upgraded clear backboard. It really makes it look nice & it does allow the ball to "bounce" off the backboard. This item was easy to put together, took my husband & son less than 1/2 hour. We did fill the base with water & added a some bleach to the water to help prevent mold & such. The entire unit is very sturdy. I don't think you should hang on the rim but I do think it could take it here & there. The height is adjustable & you can move the base as close to the edge of your pool as you want...ours is about 4"-6" from the edge. The rim is a regular sized basketball rim. It comes with one basketball & I would recommend ordering an extra ball to go with it...my boys were "fighting" over the ball so I ended up having to order a 2nd ball.
