Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Huffy 88300 ExactaHeight Adjustable Pole System provides everything you need to create a basketball haven in your backyard. It features a three-piece, 3.5-inch round pole with a durable, powder-coated finish. The ExactaHeight adjustable board system features exact height adjustment from 7.5 feet to 10 feet in 6-inch increments, enabling you to raise or lower the backboard to age-appropriate height so everyone can play. It also includes a ground sleeve for easy assembly and removal and all the necessary hardware for easy installation. It accommodates all Huffy backboards and is backed by a 5-year limited warranty.

In-ground systems tend to be more rigid and take up less space than portable systems. Concrete is required for an in-ground system installation, and due to the time required for the concrete to dry, the installation of an in-ground system will take longer than a portable system.

I had hoped for an entire system, including a base. It wasn't clear in the description whether or not there was a base, so I took a chance and bought it. No base. Sent it back.

I did not realize that the actual pole was in 3 separate pieces. Although the instructions looked simple, they actually were quite confusing. There are a lot of pieces to this. But the final result is good. I am pleased with how it operates and its durability so far.

Did it myself. It takes some mechanical skill
and requires purring concrete. The manual is bad.
But I got it to work, although the base is too low
and probably water will sip in. It will probably last
a few years before I will have to take the
thing down. By then I hope my kids will be in college.
