Toys and Games Reviews of Little Tikes EasyScore Basketball Set
Customer Review: Bad Choice - I Will Have to Return All Two I Bought
Summary: 1 Stars
I had read a lot of good reviews on this toy before I bought one from Toys R Us two days ago. When I opened the box, I found the "Little Tikes" on the backboard was upside down. I rushed to Toys R Us for exchange. My [...] daughter and a neighbor's boy were very excited. They started playing immediately once it stands up. But one obvious problem is that the basketball set is terribly unstable - not because the base is light, but the connection between the pole and the backboard was so bad that the backboard wobbles/shakes all the time both left & right and back & fourth. It definitely seems can fall apart at any time. The pole looks like made of cheap plastic and its top edge where the backboard should be snapped in was not even cut evenly. There is a gap between the pole and the backboard that caused constant wobbling of the backboard. Also with just a little touch the pole falls short easily.
Thinking I was simply not very lucky - that was just a bad piece of a good product that many people like - I went to the store again yesterday and brought another one home. The second one wobbles and shakes as well due to the same cause just little bit better than the first one. I was very disappointed and dumped them both in my trunk. Will send them all back.
Meanwhile I got an advise from a friend and went to get a Fisher Price Grow to Pro basketball set in K-Mart that cost [...], only [...] extra than the Easy Score. We set it up last night and it is very nice (we played before at my friend's house. I just didn't remember the brand name while shopped for my first one)
Description of Little Tikes EasyScore Basketball Set
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.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
