5.0 out of 5 stars Orange Glow
My friend broke the neighbors hoop so we decided to buy a new one.

After looking online this one seemed the best for the price. Even though we ordered this rim, a Spalding one came. I trust Spalding more than Huffy in anything dealing with sports, but I am guessing they are both using the same model.

When it came it was sturdy, nicely/brightly...

3.0 out of 5 stars Huffy 7800 Basketball Rim
Needed to replace a broken rim and found this one at Amazon. Overall, installation was easy ... if you just want a "rigid" rim. The hardware (spring and mounting screws) that came along to make it "flexible" didn't work at all because the mounting screw was way too short. But since I can't dunk the ball, this feature wasn't important to me.

For the price I...

When it came it was sturdy, nicely/brightly colored, and came with everything but the backboard:
-Rim
-Net
-Nuts&Bolts

Rim Fit our old Huffy Backboard and was a great upgrade from the old rim that had plastic clips to hold the net. Well made and easy to install.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid replacement rim, but don't be decieved by pictures, September 2, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I needed a new rim and this was one of the cheapest ones I could find. It looks nice and works well as a simple rim, but don't be decieved by the pictures into thinking this is a flex rim. I have found virtually no give in this rim, so if you want something like that, this is not for you.

Personally, I didn't need a rim with give, so I am thrilled with this product.

Price was right and the quality high!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value, June 24, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The basketball rim is well made. This is a replacement for our bent rim with broken net hooks. It went right on and we are back in action! The springs are stiffer than the old ones, but will probably loosen up with time.

Didn't know what to expect for the price, but was pleasantly surprised when the rim arrived. Everything fits well and the hoop is solid.

Was looking for a cheap basketball rim and net for my son's backboard I built and hung up in the basement for him and his friends to play with. Very nice quality and very sturdy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fine, but wish I'd bought the standard rim, November 3, 2011
By

This rim cost just a couple of dollars more than the standard rim, so I figured "what the heck?" and went for this one with the springs. Like the other reviews have said, this rim is quite rigid. What I don't like about it is the sound it makes when a ball bounces off of it on a missed shot. It's not quite a rattle, but it definitely is a louder clang than you should get from a normal rim.
