Very good product
We found the game to be very sturdy and fairly easy to assemble. We did use YouTube as a guide which was really helpful to avoid some of the problems other buyers have had. My husband and I are enjoying the game, but we really bought it for grandkids. Husband writing now: I am NOT handy with tools (understatement!), so it took me (age 72) 6 hours to assemble the game, but it was actually straightforward and fun to do. I only messed up a couple of times and had to redo little things. Everything works great. Suggestion: You will need a friend for the backboard assembly. It's heavy. Also, try to use your own tools. The company admits your tools will probably be better than the provided ones, which are designed for people who have absolutely no screw drivers or wrenches. A ratchet wrench is a wonderful thing! Also, get some kind of step stool when mounting the backboard because of the weight and height. Our game fit under a 93 inch basement ceiling, using one extension tube on each side. You are not giving your shot much of an arc at that height and I'd say one in 300 shots will scrape our 93" ceiling, but sometimes the scrapers end up going through the net, it's still a lot of fun. Ideal for 10 foot ceilings, but I can see where kids could use it at only 7 feet. Would I recommend this game? Sure! It's expensive, but so far seems to be well worth the money. Brings out your competitive spirit! I'll update this as soon as the grandkids visit.

7 Balls, 3 Adjustable Heights, 10 Games Modes - Awesome!
This was a GREAT addition to our basement. It arrived in one heavy box, with no damaged or missing pieces. Among the 10 game modes are single player, 1 vs. 1, collaborative scoring, crossfire (where you shoot diagonally) and different game durations. If I had a dime for every time my 8 year-old said "please, just one more game!" I'd have enough to buy another one. We had some adult friends over last night, and this was the game of choice, getting more play than foosball, ping pong and Stiga rod hockey combined. Scoring is nearly perfect, the only misses coming when two balls go through in very rapid succession. Assembly was fairly easy - one recommendation I have is to have a 10 mm box wrench available, it'll make holding all the nuts easier. The supplied Allen wrench works fine, though I used one from my bike tool to get a little more leverage & save my fingers some abuse. Use your own full-sized phillips head screwdriver for the few screws that need that tool. Instructions were pretty clear; the only part I messed up was that I put the net/ramp on upside down, which we fixed the following day. There are black tabs on the net for the control module wire to pass through, and they should be on the right side as you look at the rim from the shooting area. Fully assembled, it is sturdy yet easy to move - the wheels also lock to prevent it from moving around when shooters "lean in". With a few interruptions, I took my time and got it together in 3 hrs, all-in. Helps to have a partner when hanging the backboard. No electrical outlets nearby? No problem! Can run on AA batteries or be plugged in. Shuts itself off after a period of inactivity. Great quality, good value, tons of fun. We're very happy with this purchase.

EXCEPTIONAL PRODUCT, EXCEPTIONAL FUN!!
I can't think of a better word than "exceptional"! From the product reviews, I was convinced this would be a quality product, and indeed it is. But as much as I read about how fun this would be, I knew that would be an individual experience that I would have to wait and discover myself. First off, I bought this for my 10 year old niece (she is obsessed with basketball) because she wanted it so bad. I set it up in our basement which has a 7' 9" ceiling. The middle height adjustment was perfect. We almost could have went to the highest setting if I had a couple more inches to work with. But we like it just fine where it's at. We have had this just a few days, and it has been used for hours! I'm 42 and enjoying this very much. But with 6 kids in the house (between the ages of 10 and 18) it is getting used several times a day. Everyone loves it! It even gives you more exercise than you would think. The kids complain that they are hot and their arms hurt from playing so much haha. Hey, anything that compels these young ones to put down their phones and go compete in some physical activity is definitely a win! Besides the physical quality of the product itself, I'm also pleased with the mechanics. I've been watching the scoring accuracy very carefully while the kids play. I agree that the sensors seem to be working at least 98% percent of the time. Probably better, because I have only witnessed twice that a score was not counted. And that's after hundreds of shots! So now, I have to tell you one of my favorite parts... the announcer! The kids agree with me that "he" makes this game so much fun! The music is also quite good. Not just a cheesy multi-tone sound, but real music! The built in speaker is of better quality than most games I've purchased, but I love that fact that there is a aux jack on the back to plug in a better, external speaker. I did this and it sounds amazing! Also, the announcer had quite a large vocabulary. Yes, you do hear the same phrases quite a bit, but there are many of them. And even after hours of play, new ones we haven't heard come up. He gives both encouraging comments and gives some sarcastic, humorous comments too. I won't spoil the fun by quoting his comments here, but he is entertaining and adds to the entire experience. The 10 games also keep this game from getting too repetitive. The kids love to switch it up all the time. The "cheat sheet" is very handy too because it is attached next to the control board and it gives an explanation of all the games. This has been one of the best entertainment investments we've ever made and it's an awesome compliment to our game room! P.S. The fact that it easily lifts and folds up, allowed us to place it by our pool table so it does not get in our way at all.

Great home arcade game with real physical activity & no screens!
Pop-A-Shot is a great home game. I would write "for the whole family," because that's how we use it, but I could just as easily see it being a hit in a single person's game room (especially for when friends come over). It was my family's favorite holiday present, and in this era of video games (with kids playing on separate consoles or phones even when they're in the same room), that's saying something. Is it a challenge to assemble? In a sense, yes, but I mean "challenge" in the positive sense. It took me 2-3 hours, but (a) I'm very far from a "handy" person, and (b) now that I've done it once I could probably do it again in half the time. Having done it, I feel pretty good about myself. ;-) If you're feeling nervous, just google a home assembly video (they're easy to find) and keep pausing and playing it throughout your process: You don't absolutely need any tools besides the included throw-away Allen wrench and other mini wrench, but I found it easier to have a pair of adjustable pliers or wrench for the purposes of bolt-tightening. Some people have used electric wrenches, but I don't think that that's necessary. You don't need to over-tighten the things. I would put all of the bolts and screws in a big bowl or pyrex dish so that you 100% for sure don't lose any. At the very end I was missing one bolt and was stymied, until I found it under a table; it's easy to drop them while assembling the unit. Save yourself the worry and make certain to keep them all in one place. Let me address the issue of height/ clearance. My basement ceiling is 87", or 7 feet 3 inches. That's pretty low. Yet the Pop-a-Shot fits (using none of the height-increasing tubes) and we can play the game pretty well. IMPORTANT: My son and I are each 5'9". If either of us was 6 feet or taller, that might have made things a little tougher with my low ceiling. But as it is, we can play fine. Yes, we have to adjust our shot to take off much of the arc, but that's just the way it goes if you have a low ceiling. If I had an 8 foot ceiling that would have been better, and I still would have used the lowest assembly setting (no height-increasing tubes) so that players could shoot with a little arc. But again: it still works with my 87" ceiling and with no one taller than 5'9". If you are taller and you still only have 87", you will probably have to bend a bit and take even more arc off your shot. If you have somewhat higher ceilings, you will be in even better shape. tl;dr version: You can make Pop-a-Shot work with only a little over 7 foot ceilings, but if you do you will have to make your shot more level and you will sometimes hit the ceiling. Just know that in advance. The scoring mechanisms work well. I've read on some of the less-expensive brands that the scoring mechanisms can miscount. Pop-a-Shot has a sensor above and below each rim, so the shot only counts if it really does go all the way through rather than just bounding off the rim (as some customers say happens on other brands of home hoop arcades). To me, that alone makes Pop-a-Shot worth the extra money, especially given that I hope to use this game for years and thus it's only a small amount extra per year, when amortized. I'd recommend this game to anyone with the space. I like to see my kids playing together and working up a little bit of a sweat (when they shoot for 30 minutes at a time) as opposed to simply playing video games on a console/tv or on a phone.

Instructions are absolute GARBAGE
This took me quite a few hours to put together - over the course of a day basically, all because of the ridiculous instructions. So that’s why I took off 1 Star. The how-to video they give you access to was much more helpful. Honestly, if you just follow that you’ll be fine. I did notice between both the paper instructions and the how-to video that they really seem to be geared towards some other version than the pop-a-shot I actually ordered. Perhaps an older version they used to sell. I’m not sure. I’m wondering if maybe this is why so many ppl in the comments had so much trouble putting this thing together. I know some folks really had missing pieces but in my case I kept THINKING I had pieces missing simply because the instructions were not for my specific product. Why not just match the instructions to the version each customer orders??? Is that too costly or time consuming? Anyway, I actually put this thing together on my own - scoreboard and all. My husband was supposed to help but he didn’t have much time between work days and it kept getting put on the back burner. I was pretty anxious to get this thing set up so I could play so I said screw it and started setting it up on my own. The scoreboard is heavy, yes. But it really isn’t that hard to get it attached if you have enough room to lay the entire structure down flat, while being very steady (careful, because it’s heavy so if you don’t have the strength to do this, you risk letting it fall which I imagine would cause some serious problems). If you have something sturdy to prop underneath it while you get the scoreboard screwed in, even better. I pretty much just sat half way underneath the zone I needed to attach the board to with just enough room to sort or prop it up with my leg while I got everything screwed in. Took maybe 5-10 minutes. Then I carefully lifted the structure back up. I had this thing in one room (sort of my home office/game room) but eventually decided it should go in the living room. I know a lot of ppl said to be careful about where you set this thing up because it’s so difficult putting it together in the first place and that once it’s in place......that’s a wrap. But like I said, the terrible instructions really make this seem like a harder job than it ever needed to be. Once you get the hang of this setup, it’s pretty easy to disassemble and reassemble, if you feel like dealing with it. So I broke it down into a few parts. I kept the scoreboard, net & ball return all attached (just folded it up) and just removed a few of the bars in key places so I could get it through the door way. Moved the parts to my living room and had this thing back up in 15 minutes. All together it took me about 30-40 minutes to break it down, move it and set it up again. Tip: I had a little trouble getting one section down a specific hallway in my house until I locked the wheels in place, since the wheel locks extend out a bit while in the unlocked position. The little bit of room that gave me was the exact amount I needed to maneuver it around the corner and down the hallway. The other sections were easy to move. Aside from the assembly problems which again, could easily be resolved by updating the instruction guide (and maybe adding better quality diagrams), the game itself is AMAZING. I’ve found it to be accurate. I like the little game/music options and you can adjust the sound. I’ve had zero issues and have played the heck out of this thing nearly every day I’ve had it which has been a little over 1 week now. Folds up nicely, so huge space saver there. My husband and I have enjoyed trying to 1up each other’s high score. Lol. Worth the money for all the fun you and your family will have.

Customer service is amazing
So I bought this unit over a year ago. Suddenly the unit stopped working won’t turn on. So I reached out to popa shot to see if I was missing anything. Sure enough no hesitation they sent a brand new computer module for free and shipping. The customer service is top tier. Make sure you buy name brand. The game is also a lot of fun. And the way it folds up while still holding the basketballs is a huge space saver. Built well.

Great basement basketball game
04/25/22 update: I finally got around to emailing support about the faulty LCD display and mentioned one of the balls had to be reinflated every few days. They responded within an hour asking for a picture of the LCD which I sent. They responded within an hour again and said they would immediately ship out a new LCD display AND a pack of 3 balls. The shipment arrived a few days later. I plugged the new LCD in before screwing it to the backboard and it worked great. The three new balls all hold their air. Great responsive customer service. Things happen where things don't work right, but they promptly made it right and I would add a sixth star if I could! Great buy, definitely recommend. Received this fast a few days ago. Built it by myself and had it ready for the kids when they got home We have played it for a couple hours already and could not be happier. It is sturdy and folds up/down easily to make it more compact in our busy basement game room. The instructions were not always accurate. In one step they said to use one of the backboard bolts in the upright bars. Luckily the bolt was not long enough to work so it was obvious that it was wrong. Really wish the sensors were mounted the way the scoring screen is rather than little wood screws from the back. Hope I never have to replace them and mount new ones using the same holes. One thing I did differently was the order of backboard assembly. They recommend two people mounting the backboard. Knowing it was just going to be me I mounted the backboard first, before mounting the rims and all the parts to the backboard. Made it much easier to work with. The game variety is cool. I wish there was some way to vary the 3 second shot counter on some of the mini games as games end pretty fast if the kids miss two shots in a row. The only complaint I have is the scoring LCD number display doesn't display the bottom right line of one of the numbers. So an 8 looks like a backwards 9. Going to send an email and see if they will send me out a new one. Other than that, great order, great delivery, and great product.

We thought the kids would have fun
We thought the kids would have fun throwing hoops and at least that way they would be away from the screen a few minutes everyday. We never expected us adults to enjoy Pop-a-Shot so much. It's just as fun as it is in the arcades, with the added convenience of having this at home. It comes with 15 different modes to make this challenging and fun. Installation - Videos on their site may not match your specific model or product iteration. However the manual is straightforward to follow and quite frankly there was only one catch in the whole process. This is mostly a one person job, but having a second person for a few keys steps makes it easy to balance the frame. - CATCH: As mundane as it seems, be sure the net is installed the right way or it will obstruct the sensor that counts points that is directly below the rim. We found about this as one of the sensors was not counting correctly. As in my picture when looked at from the front, you must have a clear and unobstructed view of the sensor (notice the larger whole in the net). This is specified in the installation manual, but we feel a warning box would be handy so that people know there's a functional reason why aligning the net the right way is important. Perhaps even a sticker placed on the net and net bracket that goes with it for alignment, would make this even more fool proof. Willing to bet there's at least a few people calling support every day for a faulty sensor, when in reality the solution is straightforward if you know what you're doing. - The structure is adjustable to ceilings of varying height. We have standard 8ft ceilings in the basement, and were able to use one set of extenders. That fits our use perfectly and find the height perfect for game play. The frame includes an additional set of extenders if you have taller ceilings. - You can either have the gameboard use batteries or have it plugged in as we do for added convenience. Operation: - Smooth, just works, counters are 100% accurate. Be aware that when you are granted bonus time or in certain game modes, the other person hoops may not be counted. This is by design. You may have been given bonus time, the other person may have not got to the minimum score to get that. Sturdiness - Looks and feel sturdy, even withstanding kid abuse slamming the ball as hard as they can against the board, and an 8 year old climbing the ball ramp on a few occasions. Value - Amazing value, as stay-at-home workers, my wife and I challenge each other at least once a day to go downstairs and play a couple of games. Gets the heart pumping, and gets us exercising and having fun together. And trust me, from someone who runs in the summer and lifts weights, throwing hoops rapidly is a good workout and I feel my heartbeat increase every single time, play for more than 3-5 minutes and you'll break sweat. It just feels like a cheat code to exercise, having fun and not ever having to leave the house which comes in handy during the winter months. Best for - Couples or families with kids 8+ years old. - People living in places with long winters, or excruciatingly hot summers who may want to remain active without leaving the house. Sorry got to go and throw some hoops rightaway, I'm trying to get to 100 points in game mode 1.....love it.

Super fun for whole family!
I am an adult father of two and I am having too much fun playing with this thing! My wife and I have been having daily battles for the past month and candidly, played with it 95% more then our children. To be fair, my son is bit young still to fully enjoy, but he loves the announcer play by play and has taken to yelling out “buzzer beater” and “pop-a-shot” in random and out of context conversations but it’s become an inside joke for us and really has brought our entire family a lot of joy. We had lot of different people of varying ages over during the holidays and the pop-a-shot was a hit with everyone, old and young, ballers and noobs alike! In terms of setup - the instructions were easy to follow (there is a handy YouTube video walkthrough that’s great as well) and I was able to get it put together with a little help from my wife in 3 hours. I have had no issues with scores not being counted and while balls do occasionally bounce out, it’s always due to overzealous shooting vs structural issue. Having 7 balls to work with is awesome and the loaded games and music make it a lot of fun playing head to head or even the solitary challenges (included pic of my high score for reference!). The lone concern I have is the backboard tilts forward ever so slightly. I believe this is due to the connection points of the upright tubes not being ultra snug. It’s a very minor 2-3degree tilt so it’s mostly imperceptible but wonder if that could effect long term durability. That said I’m sure this product is head and shoulders above the quality and sturdiness of similar dual shot offerings and would highly recommend pop-a-shot as the best choice in the category. Only other issue is I wish the outdoor version was available in Canada because I would buy another one for the backyard in a heartbeat!
