Good mount, missing pieces, cust. service fixed no questions asked
Box was missing all hardware, but I read reviews for days prior to purchasing and knew to look for this. Called them up and they sent it out, took about 7 days. Instructions are easy enough. The location I wanted to mount it at had an eave overhanging it which would have forced me to mount it too low, or on the roof which would have made it adjustable from 8 to 11 ft, wasting a foot that my young kids could use. Brick wall made things tricky as well. I ended up building a box using the beams from the overhang, and mounting the hoop to the face of the box. The nice thing is its exactly 10 ft fully extended, and the box can be removed by removing 4 bolts from the two beams. Make sure to mount at the height in the instructions. All in all very satisfied, had to get creativebut it worked out great. 1 person for most of it, 2 at the end to lift.
