1. Very nice. Easy to adjust up and down. It did take a bit longer to put it together and in the ground than I would have thought. Over all a great buy.

1. I ordered this backboard/rim combo for my townhome complex. It's awesome considering we currently have a cheesy fan style backboard.
   
   NOTE::: The mounting holes are 3" x 2.5". Unfortunately, my pole has 5" x 5" holes, so I am having to return this.
   
   The good news is Amazon takes care of everything and makes returning even the large heavy packages such as this easy. Order with confidence if your mounting holes are the size mentioned above.

1. This took a while to put together, but it was worth it. The frame for the backboard is steel, not plastic like some others, and the backboard material itself, while not very thick, is quite strong and clear (it's the same stuff they use for my glasses). The only scratch on it is one that must have happened when I was moving the poles out of the package. The backboard is also noticeably larger than others. The powder coat finish looks almost like a Teflon coating; I'm confident it will last. The hydraulic adjustment works great. The rim is seriously heavy duty and thick.
   
   If this is still selling for 219.99, buy it. You won't find any better at this price.
   
   (I bought this because there was a ground sleeve already installed next to our driveway, but it was old and rusty; I had to pound for almost an hour to get this into the sleeve, so I don't think it is ever coming out. Consider buying a new sleeve if you're in my boat.)



2. I went with the ground sleeve installation, this system is rock solid...for the most part the assembly instructions are easy to follow...I would purchase this item again, or another from the same manufacturer...



3. Assembly took some time, but the instructions were pretty clear, and there were no missing parts. Well designed unit as everything went to together perfectly. I installed it using a ground sleeve to allow it to be removed later if desired. I used post hole cement (8 50 lb bags) which didn't require mixing - just put the cement in the hole, then add water.
   
   Started to finish was maybe 8 hours over three days (have to allow cement to cure) including digging the hole.
   
   I'm amazed at how easy the height adjustment is - nearly zero weight to adjust up or down.
   
   The clear backboard is a plus as it makes it less of an eye sore (doesn't block views so much), and having it in ground allows for cleaner installation (no tripping over the big base, or having it take room on the driveway).
