does the backboard sway a lot when the ball hits it? Is it 48" measured diagonally or what?

The backboard does not sway a lot in my opinion. It is a nice outdoor hoop for the price. 48" measure is diagonally, I do believe. Good luck.

The backboard is very stable and the ball comes off of it pretty authentically. The 48" dimension is the diagonal measure of the plexiglass surface. That surface is 41" wide and 23" high when measured directly above the back of the rim. For what it's worth, I'm really enjoying this unit.

You'll be fine. I'm 230 and this thing doesn't even dip when I stand on it. Definitely the right board for you. Might want to look into a bigger paddle, but that's something else entirely. The paddle that comes with the board will definitely get you started.

I always use 4 inch sticks it wobbles a little bit but its fine, and I've used this 3 or 4 times since I bought it. And I don't have any problems using it even my friends borrowed it for there bday party. We all loved it how presentable it looks.

Nope, it flops over. It's not too difficult to shove the back end of your board in there if the board is laying on the ground, though. The biggest problem I have with it is that the wheels are skinny and wobbly, and I have a very hard time pulling it over deep sand and over the pavers that line the path down to the beach.

Is it sitting on a slope? Even a 1/2" drop per foot slope ends up being 2" skew when the goal is perpendicular to the slope. Mine appeared the same way before I recognized my driveway was sloped that much. This may not help. I sent my first one back after the backbroard cracked while assembling. The second one (at present) has been great for three years now. As far as the arms are concerned, maybe one side (two arms) on the outside and the other side (other two arms) on the inside attaching the backboard? I don't what else to suggest. Good luck.

It's VERY difficult to use because it has a round ball in the center (bottom side of the board), instead of two arches. I would get something else because I can't use mine and I'm only 140 lbs.

Too bad no one can answer Ken's question. After a decade of service, my family & I and the local weather just managed to break a Lifetime backboard & hoop connected to a pole and base designed to stand up on or near a driveway. The pole is fine, and years ago I spent hours filling the base with sand to withstand the local winds and basketball fans, which it still does most of the time. Too bad I can't buy a replacement backboard and hoop guaranteed to fit my existing base and pole... especially since it is all... gasp... apparently Made in America!

The height (top of backboard) at the 7' position will be just below 10'. About 9'6"-8". And the unit is easily movable as long as you aren't trying to push it on much of an incline. They actually are some of the easiest moving portable hoops I've seen despite being the heaviest. Also I recommend having a sander for joining the two main poles together when assembling to get some of the paint off to slide down to the desired length much easier. You will enjoy the basketball system a lot if you decide to purchase it.

This tv stand is recommended for Tv's with a 48" diagonal measurement. I would not recommend using it for a tv with a length of 48" although the is is very sturdy. Hope this helps.

I just measured the table and it is 48 inches long. The product information is confusing because it has two different lengths.

Hi, I'm in my late fifties, 5'6 and about 120. I can carry this just fine. Only issue is the length, which is awkward for me. It's a fun board, and very stable, not very quick to maneuver, ok for our twisty slow river.

I think so, but can't say for sure. It definitely was more unique for a backboard than I had experienced.

Nope, Its a sturdy rim. Ive hung on mine before. I would be more worried about your backboard than the rim while hanging...

I would say "just right." It feels the most like a big trampoline of the small ones I've tried. I've had my rebounder for about two years and still use it all the time. I love it.

It is stable, but it will move when the ball hits it unless you have someone put their foot on the crossbar to keep it from moving.

The mounting hardware is behind and not seen at the ends. The four I bought are each 46 7/8" long and paper can extend beyond the ends to allow for something wider. Possibly the 48" refers to the general size of the bulletin board.

I bought it for my son and he absolutely loves it. Doesn't find too much bounce back. Hope this helps.
