Review on Step Up Your Game With SKLZ Pro Mini Basketball Hoop - Perfect For Home Practice! by Christopher Gotcher

My son loves this thing. He had the glow in the dark version but was constantly dunking on it and it eventually cracked. I ordered the standard version this time and he loves that it looks more like a regular hoop.One thing about this hoop I don't like is the noise it makes when the ball gets thrown in. which I don't think can be avoided, unless the entire back was attached to the wall or something. It's not terribly loud because it has little cushion pieces on the back but the banging sound can get annoying after a while. My tip would be to place it inside your kid's room over the closet door if there's space. We originally had it in the hallway so he could have the open space to play but it is now in his room so he can play whenever he wants without being in the way, AND, most importantly, we don't hear it from the living room.The piece that goes over the door is sturdy enough to hold it in place so it doesn't ever move while playing but it is thin enough that the door can be closed easily. However, I would recommend leaving it open if you can because it may scratch the top of the doorframe like it did mine. I'm sure this is more due to my son's roughness but I do wish it had some cushion to help this.All in all, this hoop is still worth it. My son loves loves loves it.
