5.0 out of 5 stars Great nets that will last, March 29, 2009

These nets were purchased for the basketball court in my subdivision. We were replacing basketball nets about 3 times a year. I would always buy the heavy duty nets for $8, but they just don't last. I think the main culprit for the short-lived nets is the intense Georgia sun.

I considered chain-nets, but was concerned about players cutting their fingers on it (yes, I speak from expierence). These nets loot like the nylon nets and have the strength of steel. Everyone gets excited when new nets go up and when these were installed it was no exception. There were some complaints that the nets were too tight, which prevented the ball from going through the net. However after a month or so of play that problem went away. From what I see, these nets should last at least 2 or 3 years.

Very easy to install, they look great and still look brand new after months of use.

The only thing you need to be aware of. The instructions tell you you need to stretch the nets by hand otherwise the ball will stick. This is true and you must do this. You have to use some force to really stretch them out, but it's no big deal. Just be sure to do it.

Just ordered 4 more to update my kids school nets.

Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Should last after cockroaches are gone, August 11, 2011

The weakest link for Lifetime basketball hoop is the net (after which is the plastic brace). This is the fix for just a few more bucks - much cheaper in the long run. BUT, getting the ball constantly stuck for the first few weeks even after all the streching that is humanly possible is a bit of a pain.
