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 Great Activity   September 8, 2008
M. Ramisch (Harbor Beach, MI)
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
P. Andrews
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).


4 out of 5 stars Fun for the whole family   July 2, 2008
Tricia M. Buell (Nebraska)
Our entire family loves this basketball hoop. It was a Father's Day gift for my husband from our children and they have enjoyed shooting hoops together. The height is easily adjustable making it a great toy for all our kids.


4 out of 5 stars Alright Product   June 21, 2008

I bought this item for my son who is almost 2 and he loves it! The only things I don't like about it is that its awful flimsy..and the net kept falling off the rim to where I had to tape it somewhat. I think this product could have been made a little better. Other then that its great.


4 out of 5 stars solid fun   May 6, 2008

solid little basketball set for toddler (my son is 13 months old and is just tall enough to dunk at the lowest setting). Love that it 'grows' with the kid as they lengthen. The hoop piece tends to loosen after several dunks; not sure if that's because I haven't stuffed it into the backboard with enough force.
