Hi, Up to what age can kids play with this basketball hoop? My son is close to 5 years. Thanks in advance for your assistance!

My son is almost 2 but I bought it bc it's good for up 6 years old I like it it's sturdy You might want to get a heavier or more advance hoop that's from 6 and up

The box says up to 5 years old. The goal adjusts up to 6 feet. It should last for at least 3 more years for him.

It goes up to 6 ft so he'll dig it right now but you'll need to get a standard one probably in a few years if he's still into it plud it'll improve his shot.

I guess it depends on how rough he is and if he is going to try to hang off it. My DD ct is 5'4 and all she does is throw the ball. We have it up at the six foot level. I would think it would be fine. They can always move back from the net if it becomes too easy.

My daughter is 5 and she really loves this. I'm not sure if it has a age limit...maybe how far along with playing games or on computer helps. I would say its good for ages starting around 3-4. Hope this has helped you.

My kids are 9 and 12 and they use both of them easily enough. The smaller ones we tend to use inside most of the time. The larger ones we use outdoors always as they are bigger and you can hit the ball higher and farther with it. Once you get the knack of it, it's really quite fun and easy.

My son is 3 years old and has played with it every day since Christmas day. He thinks he is a chef. I had bought pots, fake foods, plates and utensils for him to get the full use out of the kitchen. He seems to like it enough to play with it. He is tall and I thought this would be an issue but it's pretty perfect for him, no complaints at all. Good luck.

My kids were 9 and 10 when we bought it. They still play on it now and they are 10 and 11. My husband and I are in our 30's and we play on it.

Hi Brenda, my son is 5 1/2 and has played with this for about 2 years now I believe. It is still in good shape and I think it would be great for a 5 y.o.

We haven't tried dunking yet (the kids are too young) but we think the hoop will last through high school. Its a solid backboard, sturdy, but the rim will bend if a high schooler hangs on it.

We bought ours for 2 and 4 and they were perfect for them to enjoy. 5 and 4 are ok--they main thing ours did was jump and sit on them. Age 5 will probably want to jump also and need to watch closely that seams don't break.

The age range recommended by manufacturer is from 4 to 24 months. My son is 5 months now and he loves it, he gets entertained a lot... I recommend it

I think it depends on the height of the 5 year old. I have a 4 year old boy and he's too short to play with his brothers who are 7 and 10. He gets very frustrated when they hit the ball over his head. Every child is different though, and it may not bother your child.

AbsolutelyWe couldn't be happier. We had been through many basketball hoops in te past. This one was a little more pricey, but well with it. We have a 12 year old and a 16 year old who play on it constantly. We actually had to mount it on 3/4" plywood and then to the wall as it was much stronger than.The boys love it and it is used pretty much every day.Hope this helps.

My son is 5 an he still loves it. There are different games you can buy for different age groups if that helps.

Faith, I am so sorry but I cannot answer that question but I would be contacting the company as these hoops are really a tough piece of equipment and I cannot imagine how a piece could break. I would be thinking that they have to have at least a 1 yr warranty if not longer. Sorry that's all I can suggest.

I got this for an 8 yr old girl who is very athletic. It was very appropriate for her, and it's not one of those junky toys. I'd say it's too much for a 5 year old...they aren't as coordinated at that age. I did see several other archery sets on Amazon that would probably work for a 5 yr old...much simpler and easier to use.

It may be a little tall for an 18 month old, but if you play with them and hold them up to it they can easily put the ball in the hoop. It wouldn't be long before they grasped the concept. You might be able to place a step stool or some type of platform for the child to step on to elevate them. My granddaughter is 3 and we have it on the lowest height and it's perfect for her.

The manufacturer recommends 36 months - 8 years. My son is 4.5 and has been playing with it and loving it for about 6 months. It was difficult for him to switch it alone at first, but now he's a pro. My 6 year old helped him. She loves it too. It is a huge hit will kids when they come over. I have seen 3 year olds and 7 year olds play with it at out house. Hope that helps.

Our grandchildren all play with it, and they are ages 2-8. The 8 year old girl only plays with it when playing with little cousins. I think 3-5 is ideal.
