I got this for my 9-year-old, and he loves it. The only problem is it's not snug on the door, and there isn't much padding under it, so every time the ball hits the backboard, the backboard bangs against the door, and it's very loud. Snugging it up with foam will probably help.

I purchased this for my son because he loves to shoot hoops in the basement. I wanted to purchase him a nicer backboard and hoop and found this one to fit the bill. It is nice with a large backboard and large, sturdy hoop. But their attachment to the door is very poor. You screw some small "U" metal attachments to the back of the board and hang it on the door. The backboard just doesn't set up on the door very well with this design. We have improvised with some towels and such to make it work better, but they really need to come up with a better door-attachment.

I specifically like the size of this basketball system. Usually, I like to shoot around when I get tired of studying, so the ball, rim, and board provides adequate sizing for my 5'6 frame. However, there is one major drawback to this basketball system. whenever I shoot and hit the backboard, the background would smack right onto the door and make a loud noise. Fortunately, I live parents who doesn't mind hearing a loud "thud".

I purchased the Spaulding Mini Jammer Junior Basketball system it was very solid and put together well. We had purchased other door mount units that just don't compare. The small basketball that comes with it is great. Unit very easy to put together. Fast shipping my child and friends love it.

This is a nice looking hoop. Appears sturdy. However, everytime
it is hit with the small basketball that it came with, the basket
collapses. It goes down into a fold position. My son is very frustated with it. At this point I think I have to hot glue it to get it to
stay in place.

This is so much fun. Our family loves to play and so do my friends. Just need to find the right door to hang it on. You also might want to put something behind it so it doesn't scratch the door.

Broke easily. Bought another one and that broke also. Went to a metal version, so far so good.

This product is very well made and sturdy. My 7 year old son loves it. It is much larger than the typical hoop that hangs on doors and MUCH more durable. Great product and I would highly recommend.

All in all the system is good I had only to fix the ring. In fact the ring used to tilt down pretty easily and I had to use a screw to fix it.

This was purchased as a gift. The receiver has complained about hanging the hoop on the door. She wishes that it could be hung on the wall.
