This hoop is a very very high end one. You won't regret especially for the price. Even at 250 for the material and size that's a steal. If I knew about it prior to the same I would've gotten it then with no regrets. The Lifetime brand is the golden standard and uses the same size and materials but sells theirs for $500.
(I'm a basketball coach, I never allow my players to use trash backboards it'll ruin the amount of power they put into layups when playing real games)
I picked up 4 of these larger Spaldings (2 poly 54" and 2 acrylic 60") from a Walmart unadvertised clearance a couple months ago for a steal and can tell you the one in the post above should be solid for at least the 3-5 years mentioned of backyard ball. The bigger 60" ones I bought are the higher priced acrylic are are somewhat heavier and will last longer but as long as you understand the Poly ones wont last forever outside you'll be ok. Odd's are someone will probably roll by and steal it before it gets old and brittle. lol!
Another cool thing is the 54" Poly one has a fairly generous 34 gallon capacity in the base if you don't build it into cement. This means you can put almost 400 pounds of sand in there or fill it with water and get 320 pound of force holding it down. The bigger 60" Acrylic ones have a 40 gallon sized base so more stable. It is important to have a stable base no matter which one you go with.
Hope this helps!
