Install on the wall like a pro, you'll feel the difference!

The product is awesome. Perfect size, great look, amazing quality. Is what you expect or more, and you can have endless hours of fun with it. playing at your office or at home. First thing you will need is to get a new ball, because the one that comes with the hoop will destroy everything around you, and it is so noisy and heavy that gets very uncomfortable to use. I ordered the "POOF-Slinky 875 POOF 4-Inch Pro Mini Foam Basketball" (very popular among the users of this hoop), but I…

Pros
  • Toy Basketball
Cons
  • The backboard may scratch or damage walls during use

SKLZ Pro Mini Basketball Hoop

The SKLZ Pro Mini Basketball Hoop has many great features to it that can appeal to any basketball lover at any age. The durability of the hoop is next level compared to other indoor hoops that I have tried before. It would take a lot, such as hanging on the rim, to break or hurt this hoop.The functionality of this hoop, in terms of taking shots or dunking, is about the best you can get. The breakaway rim provides for the feel as a real basketball hoop is. Shots are difficult to make, but if you

Pros
  • Kids enjoy it
Cons
  • The hoop may not be sturdy enough for aggressive or intense gameplay

Nice set but it is noisy and doesn't fit as snug as it should

This was a Christmas gift for my 7 year old. He previously had a different brand that broke when he tried to dunks but it wasn't made for dunks! I was excited for him to try this.Pros: - It is a nice size and was easy put together. - It has a good sized rim compared to some of the other over the door play sets. - It does come with some foam backing on it.Cons - The ball has to be inflated and I was afraid it wasn't going to hold air the way it was bent in the box It has a few week spots on it.…

Pros
  • Toys & Games
Cons
  • The hoop may sway or rock back and forth during gameplay

Height Adjustment Broke :/

Our Son loved this as a child and played for it for years both inside and outside when he was older. It's even a blast to play with your child as well or even alone when you are bored counting how many baskets you can make. I rather have this then a good over the door set anyday as an adult which I have bought too! The cost would be about the same. Of course as soon we felt our Grandson was ready on his first Christmas we bought him one. Unfortunately he somehow by hisself was able to break off

Pros
  • It's a great way to engage children in healthy physical activity and bonding
Cons
  • The hoop may not be securely attached to the door or wall, creating safety hazards

Great Rim, Flimsy Backboard

As other reviewers have mentioned the rim is very sturdy, but the backboard is very flexible and acts like a drum when the ball hits it. I'm keeping it becasue the price is decent for what you get and I think I can reinforce the backboard with some plywood. this will kill the over-the-door mounting possibility, but I'm not using it with that mount anyway.

Pros
  • The breakaway rim is designed to simulate the real feeling of a game for better practice
Cons
  • The mini basketball may not be suitable for outdoor use

How to put on wall without drilling or nails

Hi I am writing this review because I know a lot of people want to put this on a wall without drilling or using nails. I am college student and my friends and I wanted to put this in our living room so I spent a few days trying to figure out how to do that without drilling. I am gong to detail below how to do it. I included pictures of the items I used.Step 1: Use rubbing alcohol on the front and back side of the screws with a Q-tip (helps get rid of the glue/adhesive used)Step 2: Use the…

Pros
  • Perfect for any basketball fanatic in your family
Cons
  • The hoop may not fit in all doorways, limiting its usability

Great product, but has some manufacturing errors

Pro's: I'll start by saying this has to be the best basketball hoop available, way better than the plastic one I had growing up. Its well made, the rim is metal, and the basketball looks, feels, and bounces like a real basketball, it even has to be blown up with a pump. If the backboard was glass it would be a scaled down version of the real thing.Con's: Its in the details.1. The rim has 8 hooks, but the net has only 7 loops, so you have to rig the net to work (use two hooks on one loop).2. A…

Pros
  • 18"x12" clear polycarbonate shatterproof backboard
Cons
  • The hoop may not be adjustable in height

Eh, could be better could be worse.

It could very well be my doors but this thing is not sturdy at all. When it’s on I cannot shut my door at all and every time we hit the backboard the whole thing rattles and is very loud. I bought it for my 7 year old when we can’t go outside and play and it’s heavy enough that he can really play with it, but it truly is the loudest net I’ve experienced inside. To fit it we got adhesive Velcro and stuck the four corners with it. When we take the net down there are 4 little Velcro circles on the

Pros
  • Easy to assemble, with foam padded slide-on door mounts for protection
Cons
  • The mini basketball may easily get lost or misplaced

My office loves this

We had some cheap $5 one. And it broke. We got this and never looked back. Fellas at the office love it. If you got the touch you can even get some rim rolls. This mini hoop is the truth

Pros
  • The hoop can be easily stored away when not in use, saving space
Cons
  • The product may not be suitable for users with limited mobility or physical ability

Great product….BUT best in my review

Product is beyond great! However it wasn’t shipped inside a box…. God forbid it was a gift that someone could have seen before I could get to it

Pros
  • The hoop can also be adjusted to different heights for children or adults
Cons
  • The ball may bounce unpredictably due to the size and weight of the mini hoop

Great Product for my opinion

Bought this for a grandson for Christmas. He loves it! Easy to assemble and appears sturdy and durable. Would recommend.

Pros
  • The sturdy backboard is made with polycarbonate material that is built to last against any wear and tear
Cons
  • The product may not come with all necessary components for assembly

Perfect for kids' bedrooms

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…

Pros
  • It's an affordable option for private basketball training without the need to invest in an entire court
Cons
  • The hoop may require frequent tightening of screws and bolts to maintain stability

Does not come with pump.

Seems sturdy and durable. The only issue is it did not come with pump for ball so now my 3 y.o is upset because he cant play with it until we air the ball up.

Pros
  • I would recommend to anybody
Cons
  • The ball may not bounce as well on the mini hoop compared to regulation hoops

Amazing item for my opinion

Can’t go wrong with the glow in the dark. Amazing item at the end of the day. Very pleased with the end results after setting it up. Very easy to assemble. Great product.

Pros
  • It can be used for both indoor and outdoor events, making it perfect for parties and events
Cons
  • The mini basketball may easily become deflated or punctured

So fun! INSANE QUALITY!

This hoop is AMAZING! Bought it for my nephew 3 years ago when he was 5, now he is almost 9 and he is dunking like a savage all this years, and the hoop is still LIKE NEW! INSANE QUALITY! He is keep saying that was the best gift ever

Pros
  • It's a safe and fun way to practice your slam dunks without jumping too high and risking injuries
Cons
  • The basketball hoop may be too noisy for some living situations

Only real mini basketball hoop

I've owned 4 basketball hoops now, and this is my first one that works. Basically every hoop you know of is just a piece of plastic that breaks the first time you dunk on it, and can barely even handle normal shots. You spend all of your time looking for a legitimate basketball hoop that you can shoot, dunk on, and put a lot of abuse on over a long period of time. This is it. Congratulations SKLZ, the only company I have found to make a normal basketball hoop that 100% of people in the…

Pros
  • It's a fantastic addition to your home gym for a full-body workout
Cons
  • The backboard may not provide sufficient rebound for certain types of shots

IT’S AWESOME good for me

It’s a great little hoop but it’s sort of loud and it’s really fun when you have a rubber band around the end that f the net to catch the ball, the ball is also very nice because it doesn’t leave any marks on the ceiling and it’s really easy to inflate.

Pros
  • Nice hoop, very sturdy. Not cheap plastic. My 8 & 10 year olds are rough with it and it’s holding up!
Cons
  • The backboard is very flimsy!

Great hoop.Here is an Revain link for the type of ball that I think works well, liked it better than the type that came with hoop https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08Y81Z1LZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1Thanks!

Pros
  • It's compact size makes it easy to set up almost anywhere without taking up too much space
Cons
  • The mini basketball may be too light for some users' preferences

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's really trustworthy

I in fact use this product every day and it doesn't give me any trouble besides not being able to shoot because I suck but it's really fun to play with friends and just play with and it was easy to build

Pros
  • The SKLZ Pro Mini Basketball Hoop is the perfect tool for improving your game at home without having to venture out to a court or gym
Cons
  • The product may not be as durable as advertised

DOES NOT GLOW IN THE DARK

My son loves playing, but is disappointed it does not glow in the dark like the pic shows. He bought this with his own money.

Pros
  • Grandson loves it.
Cons
  • Product is cool, just needs a pump
