I see from another answer that it adjusts up to 10 feet high. But does the rim accept full-size basketballs? And is it stable at the higher settings?

I don't think it would accept full-size basketballs- the ball it comes with is quite small, and light at that. And no, it is not very stable at the higher settings unless you were to fill the base full of sand or water. Even then, it tends to tip at the high settings. But we love this product- my 2 and 5 yr old don't mind the lower settings and even at the lower height (perfect for my 2 yr old), they have a great time with it.

It does not adjust to 10 ft high and cannot accept full-size ball; this is a toy for toddlers.

No, the Fisher-Price Basketball Hoop doesn't accept full-sized basketballs, only the size that comes with the set, which is smaller and child-sized. But the pole does NOT adjust to 10' high at all. The rim to the floor measures 3'4". Yes, it is quite stable at the highest setting. The pole comes out of the base for easy transporting from outside to inside.

We use an old broom stick for adjusting the height. I'm just under 6ft tall and have no problems raising or lowering the hoop/backboard.

The height is adjustable. I have mine set at about 32" but it will go higher or lower, but I don't know what the max height is.

I bought a 12 in. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004L0XTXA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1). It doesn't sit on the rim, but it works pretty well.

The full height is 11.25 inches. However, it adjusts to any height less than 11 inches.

No I am sorry it does not adjust. I bought extensions for it to get it higher. For piano I w ould buy the metal one it has several adjustments for height.

I have teenage boys who play hard on this rim. I don't encourage them to dunk n hang on the rim, but it does happen. It weighs a lot when the base is full, but I still think they r a bit afraid of it falling into the pool if they hung on the rim. So they dunk without hanging. This hoop, which I took in in the winter, has held up great and we look forward to many more seasons of fun with it.

No, it's not height adjustable. It has met my daughters needs as far as practicing handstands, cartwheels, routines at home.

3 feet or more clearance above the rim I recommend, but in this case that would bring the hoop down to 4.5 ft with your ceiling height. You could get away with 2.5 ft, but most shots would need to be closer to the rim

Yes, it adjusts from 22 to 68 inches. It is suprisingly very steady at this height. The legs are marked in inches so when you find your height, you can easily go back to it. It swivels from right to left, to adjust for uphill or down hill all you do is have a leg out front, pull it in for up and push out for down. The legs come with plastic ends, but in rocky or icy conditions they can be removed to provide a spiked end. I do recommend that you get the full gun rest.

Yes it does adjust in height. I think there are foul levels. Also, you can buy leg extenders but we never needed them.

HI Daizysorry, I don't know because my grand son filled it and I was not there - but later today I can ask him - he might remember, although I am sure he was not measuring but filling it from the garden hose. - whatever the amount the basketball backstop and all works perfectly and is easily moved even when that base is full.best wishesjohn sloan

As it sits assembled, mine stands at 80" (6'-8") at it's highest point. The rim is 18" (1'-6) below that highest point. On really high arching shots you might hit your ceiling but in my opinion you'd be fine as most shots would never go that high.

it adjusts and is used by my 9 year old (4 foot something) and can go as high for about a 5 7" person

I don't know anyway you could adjust the height. The basket position can be adjusted.

It adjusts up and down for a range of about ten inches or so. I'm 5'3" and it's good for me on the lowest setting. So I think it would have a comfortable height setting for most users.

I like it. I prefer the 9-13 over the 6-9 height adjustment. Works good, though a little hard to set in between 9 & 13. There is a lock position at 13" but in between you have a little trouble setting height. I like the swivel on it also. it is easy to get crosshails level. I hope this helps. I would buy it again.
