After reading all of the reviews online we decided to go with a MegaSlam 60 & I'm glad we did. Great overall experience from Customer Service (switching of product ordered - 54 to a 60) was seamless, not one issue with shipping or delivery. Now that it's installed all I can say is WOW! Excellent system - you can't go wrong with MegaSlam! If you are in SE PA we used www.postupinstall.com for our install - excellent service & quality installation.

We installed our MegaSlam 60 over Memorial Day weekend, and my only regret is that we didn't get one sooner! The whole family loves it, and it looks and feels like a hoop you would play on in a high school or college gym. The installation YouTube video that we watched online differed slightly from the directions that came with the hoop, so make sure to double check your steps. That was the only issue that we had, but this hoop is incredibly well-built, well designed, and sturdy, yet easy enough for my 8 year old to raise and lower by himself without any problems. We will definitely get hours and hours of enjoyment out of our wonderful new toy!

Fantastic quality and best value out there. This is a legit hoop for preschoolers to grown men with the adjustability and rugged design. I'm 6'6" 230lb and this hoop will take everything I can throw at it. The install can go very smoothly if you think everything out. Highly recommend renting an auger if you have clay or rocky soil. I do and did it by hand anyway with a spud bar and post hold digger which turned out to be a real bear. Four feet is a long way in that kind of soil. Make sure you bell out the bottom of your hole 6 inches all around which makes your support column much stronger and anchors it in the ground resisting any uplift. I did rent a cement mixer that could handle two 80lb bags at a time and that made the concrete work very easy. Also you can buy your concrete online at your local big box store and have it delivered on a pallet saving some effort. If you have two reasonably strong people, a small moving dolly ($10 at harbor freight) and a pickup truck that is all you need for the rest of the install. Move all the heavy pieces around on the dolly and once you have the post up work out of the back of the truck which is much safer than a ladder. When installing the backboard place a moving blanket on each bed rail then lay the backboard across face down first then rotate up to the vertical. One person can hold it there while the other slides the bolts through the center and upper brackets. You can use the height adjuster to get all the holes to line up perfectly without trying to lift and hold the backboard at the same time. After that step the rest of the install is a breeze and you're playing in no time. I would also recommend hitting the pole pad and rubber along the bottom of the backboard with some 303 Aerospace vinyl protectant from time to time which protects against UV. It will stay looking good and last indefinitely that way. Also be sure to use the included touchup paint on any areas you might have scratched during the install before any rust can form.
