How easy is it to move? Is it easy enough that I could put it away in a garage after every use. I live in an uptight community that doesn't allow portable hoops to stay out.

It's actually really easy to move! I put in around 400+ lbs of sand, so the entire thing weighs A LOT! We move ours often and don't have any trouble at all. My only question to you is the height of your garage! This goal is truly a "Beast," so it's heavy & extremely sturdy. Make 100% sure that you've got the room. Hope this helps!

Its somewhat easy to move. However, if you have a 1-2" lip at the edge of the garage door entrance then it'll be virtually impossible to move without some sort of ramp or jack. Its extremely heavy, but can be moved with relative ease on a flat smooth surface.

Sarah, it's made to be left in one place and not in and out of a garage or shed. I build a frame for mine with wheels.

I keep mine in the garage. Or you can make a table or something that would keep it dry. I just got mine and it is in the box yet. It weighs about 200 lbs I think. I have a small 3500 that has an arm I can pull it by, but I still think this big one will be too heavy to move.

Yes, our door remains shut closed with the hoop on it. I have on top of our shed door outside. We had it in the house at first and the playing drove me crazy. So all summer toys got moved outside for parental sanity.

Its actually pretty ligh..t the design holds it up in my garage on concrete at the back of the cage and it doesn't fall over it but it moves a little. It comes with anchors to drive in the ground too for outside. Good for the money easily portable.

Its pretty solid....however, ive noticed recently that the rim is now bouncing up and down when shooting. Maybe someone may have tried to dunk on it during the night? Its definitely nicer than your everyday hoop that you see outside someones garage/sidewalk. The wind doesn't blow it down either if you fill it with sand. We unfortunately have water in the drum. The water is still doing it's job though. The toughest thing was putting the damn thing together. Definitely a 2-3 person job. I hope this answers your question.

The product itself is not inherently noisy. However when you bounce there is a slight movement when you jump the legs do hit the ground a tad... probably not nearly as noisy as if you were to just jump on the bare floor, but I can't imagine it wouldn't create a bit of rhythmic bouncing noise for the folks underneath you. The top & side apartments it would be the noise coming from your 'Bouncing DVD' that would be more noticeable!! Certainly not from the rebounder itself! It folds in half, not easily, but certainly doable, and would slide under a bed, or sit up flat against a wall nicely.

In my hood if there's a basket available and there's someone who wants to shoot hoop, you got game! Unless the neighbors are destructive or obnoxious, why not let them play? Seems like a hassle to have to get up on a ladder to remove the "bar" every time you wanted to use it.

No, it is not portable or storable. Once it is together it would have to be taken apart to move.

I haven't tried but once to move it. It was easy as it has wheels! If no stairs, you're good!!!

I agree with the others. It is very easy to move around as it does not include any suction cups or anything else to adhere to the tub. It expands and closes similar to an accordion to fit your tub. I usually extend it so that it doesn't move around too much when the kids are bathing so it stays in position for the most part and when I shower I usually shorten it and just move it to the front of the tub (inside) so that the water that has not dried does not get onto the floor. It was irritating at first, something that I had not considered before but worth it to not step on random objects and toys once I got into the shower and we didn't want to crowd our shower walls with the hanging basket type...

I've used it outside, but wind has big effect on ball so usually set it up in my garage. I store it in the garage when not in use, but I wouldn't leave it outside in the weather.

It is portable, however there is not a lot of clearance. If you go over any carpet/tile transitions when moving it, it gets hung up a little. It is a pretty stout unit, but does move fairly easily. Hope this is helpful.

I concur with everyone else. I would not want my boys moving it by themselves (heavy and unwieldy), and I do not really think the unit itself is built to be moved every day. While I can move it around by myself with the base filled with sand, I probably should be - and I'm 6' 1" and 215lbs! It generally stays put in our driveway, and will be moved 1) to put it around the side of the house in the dead of winter, or 2) occasionally into the street (we live on a dead end) if we have company, etc.

Like any portable hoop, it is going to shake to some degree, but it doesn't shake that much, it is pretty sturdy and it was a great investment for me!

It is easily moveble as long as you do not weight it with too much gravel. You could put a rock or something on top of the base if you are going to run into it. It stands by yourself just for shooting the ball.

Mine has worked fine. Easy to move and store. I am 5'4" and 115lbs, might be different for really big guys, but I did not want to pay over a grand for a bunch of bells and whistles I don't need like with the gym models so this was perfect for me and well worth it considering the low price.
