Editorial Review
Hey, even Michael Jordan was a toddler once. And just think of how many more millions he might have made if he had practiced on a hoop-and-ball set like this one when he was a height-challenged hoopster. With the Easy Score Basketball set those impromptu dunking clinics will be challenging, but no longer impossible. Future MJs can now practice their skills with ease, because the Easy Score adjusts to height, has a size-appropriate hoop, and is made of durable plastic. The over-size rim (1 foot across, with a nylon hoop) can be set anywhere, as it only rises from 2.5 to 4 feet high, putting lay-ups and treys just within reach. A sturdy 15-by-19-inch base keeps the basket from tipping; this is important for young hoopsters who get a little too exuberant. The set comes with a tot-sized (6-inch-wide) rubber b-ball. --Paul Hughes

Product Description
This basketball set from Little Tikes grows as fast as toddlers by adjusting to six heights from two-and-a-half to four feet. Made of sturdy plastic, this is a basketball set that is meant to last. Children love the bright colors. The base can be weighted with sand, not included, for stability. Includes a mini basketball that's easy for small hands to grasp.

5 out of 5 stars Little Tykes Basketball set   January 6, 2009
P. Howland (Parkersburg, WV United States)
I am a grandmother that purchased this set for my 2 year old grandson. His older brother had one when he was a toddler and had soooo much fun with it, we wanted the little one to have the same experience. A good set . It lasted for afew years for the older one so we feel it will do the same for his younger brother.


4 out of 5 stars The best toy ever!!!   December 16, 2008
Rasheedah Clark (Ct)
My son loves basketball...in fact all sports so this is his favority toy. He is able to dunk and shoot and he is only 2 years old! He already had one and we purchased another for him. My only complaint is that the rim bends easily due to my son dunking and pulling on it.

We wanted a game for the grand child to get some physical activity. Now days all they learn today is press buttons and joy sticks. Come on . More to life then buttons ,and sticks.

I purchased this as a gift for my one-year old neice in Las Vegas. I thought it would be good because it can be used indoors or outdoors. (The
heat in the summer, makes it too hot to play outside) I thought it may be
a little "old" for her but she loves it. It can be lowered so a one-year
old can reach it. My sister says it can be tippy so you have to make sure it has the sand added to the base. I have seen videos of my neice and it looks like she could play with it all day. I would have to recommend this for all kids and am thinking about getting one for my 2-year old daughter.



4 out of 5 stars fun, but wobbly   July 27, 2008

I like this product, and am happy to have purchased it, however I feel that the construction could use some improvement, specifically where the backboard connects to the post. Don't get me wrong...it's secure - but it is wobbly, and makes me wonder if it won't pop out after it's been used a while, if our child were to pull on the net (which they do, at times).
