I highly recommend Competitive Edge Products

Free shipping sealed the deal for me. Other online retailers wanted as much as $100 to ship my product, which is ridiculous. My product was received more quickly than I expected and met all expectations. I highly recommend Competitive Edge Products.

Q: I bought a basketball goal #1270 a while ago, finally got to assemble and I am missing parts. A bag with the first long carriage bolt for the pole, and the seven inch bar large to axle. Also the caps for the plastic base once you put water or sand. All part of one parts bag possibly? Also the wing nut and bolt to adjust pole up and down. Can I get replacements?

Asked by: Adam Myers - 4/8/2019

A: You can obtain any parts missing or replacement by calling the 800 number on the owners manual 800-225-3865. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Q: Should I fill the portable base with sand or water?

Asked by: Admin - 8/12/2015 1:20:06 AM

A: That depends entirely on how much weight you think you will need to hold up to how the system will be used. As noted on the product, when filled with water, the base weighs about 216 lbs. When filling the base with sand, the base typically weighs about 1.5 times the weight of the base filled with water, depending on the density of the sand you use. Note that the heavier the base, the sturdier the system; but, the system will also be more difficult to move.

Q: What should I do if the product arrives damaged?

Asked by: Admin - 8/12/2015 1:20:04 AM

A: These basketball systems ship brand new, directly from Lifetime Products. If the basketball system arrives in any other condition than brand new, the package was damaged in transit. If at all possible, refuse the delivery from FedEx. If refusal is not possible, take a couple of pictures of the system and give us a call. We will get the damage reported to Lifetime - who does all of the claim work with FedEx - and have them expedite a reshipment of the product as soon as possible. Please note that in most cases, the packaging will get beat up a bit in transit, while the contents remain unharmed. If you are not sure if anything was damaged inside, carefully open the box and scan for anything noticeable before unpacking the rest of the system.

Q: What is the difference between acrylic and polycarbonate backboards?

Asked by: Admin - 8/12/2015 1:20:02 AM

A: Both backboard materials are very common in this price range for basketball systems. Acrylic is said to be a more rigid material than polycarbonate, while polycarbonate is said to be stronger than acrylic in the long run. In most any situation, you will not notice a difference between these two backboard materials.

Q: What age group is this basketball hoop made for?

Asked by: Admin - 8/12/2015 1:20:00 AM

A: Due to the height adjust ability of the rim, young players can use this system to start to develop their arm strength and shooting form. That said, the rim is height adjustable up to regulation height; so, even older players can practice shooting on at a regular height.
