The problem is that they only give you enough pole to bury it 18” in the ground which in Iowa or 70% of the U..S. Is not acceptable because of frost. So this is not a 7-10’ hoop. Posts in Iowa need to be about 4’ in the ground which makes this more like a 4 1/2’-7 1/2’ basket. Also the backboard is flimsy plastic that does not respond the same way a real basketball hoop does. Also because it is so flimsy, it is like a kite and gets destroyed by the wind everyday. All in all we really wasted our money. We are hoping lifetime is going to let us purchase more pile sections separately and Scheels is going to assist us with that which is why we like Scheels.","textLength":702,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":true,"reviewedFlag":true,"autoModerated":true,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":4,"downVotes":3,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[{"type":1,"dimensionId":3,"dimensionLabel":"Value","id":9,"code":"VAL03","label":null,"value":3},{"type":1,"dimensionId":4,"dimensionLabel":"Durability","id":12,"code":"DUR01","label":null,"value":1},{"type":1,"dimensionId":5,"dimensionLabel":"Quality","id":17,"code":"QUAL1","label":null,"value":1}],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":null,"firstName":"Dan","lastName":"Niemeier","emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":null,"state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":"2023-04-26T11:23:36-04:00","purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2023-04-23T12:37:38-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"catalogItems":[{"sku":"81483-90679","title":"Lifetime Fusion 50\" In Ground Basketball Hoop","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/81483-90679","category":"in-ground-basketball-hoops","reviewCount":0,"ratingCount":0,"averageRating":null,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":0,"5":0},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":127776,"locale":"en_US","rating":3,"title":"","text":"It is a good hoop but not as pictured.
