Best 60-inch in-ground basketball hoop

Best for two-car driveways with kids from kindergarten to varsity.

• Board 60" glass 1/2"
• Pole 6" x 6", 5-gauge
• Overhang 4 ft
• Height 5 to 10 ft
• Warranty Limited lifetime

• Adjusts anywhere from 5 ft to 10 ft, the lowest rim on our list
• 60" x 36" tempered glass, 1/2" thick
• One-piece 6" x 6" pole in 5-gauge steel, 4 ft overhang

The catch: You pay premium money for a mid-size board. At $2,399 (sale price, $2,900 listed, sale ending November 27 per Pro Dunk), it costs more than the 72-inch Goalrilla GS72C. And the 20 inch square, 3 ft deep hole still takes 15 to 20 bags of concrete.

Best for two-car driveways where little kids will use the hoop for years.

• Board 60" glass 3/8"
• Pole 5" x 5", 7-gauge
• Overhang 3 ft
• Height 6 to 10 ft
• Warranty Limited lifetime

• 60" x 38" tempered glass on a steel H-frame
• Internal height adjustment from 6 to 10 ft, no exposed pinch points
• Off-set 5" pole, 7-gauge wall, 3 ft overhang

The catch: On the spec sheet, the $2,399 THOR Gold beats it on glass (1/2 inch vs 3/8), pole (6 inch 5-gauge vs 5 inch 7-gauge), overhang (4 ft vs 3) and lowest height (5 ft vs 6). The All-American earns its price with the enclosed mechanism, the hinged anchor and US manufacturing.

Best for two-car driveways that want Goalrilla glass and a lifetime warranty around $2,000.

• Board 60" glass 3/8"
• Pole 5.5" x 5.5"
• Overhang 2.5 ft
• Height 7.5 to 10 ft
• Warranty Limited lifetime

• 60" x 36" tempered glass, 3/8" thick
• One-piece 5.5" x 5.5" pole, half an inch more than the GS54C
• Lifetime warranty that covers the glass

The catch: The overhang tops out at 2.5 ft, so the pole sits closer to the action than on the THOR Gold or All-American, and the rim does not go below 7.5 ft. The breakaway rim is Goalrilla's medium-weight version, not the heavy one on the GS72C.

Best for families who want 60-inch glass, pads included, around $1,100.

• Board 60" glass 5/16"
• Pole 4" x 4"
• Overhang 2.5 ft
• Height 7.5 to 10 ft
• Warranty 5-year limited

• 60" x 33" tempered glass for $1,099.95
• 2.5 ft overhang, more than the Goaliath models
• Anchor-kit mount: level it, unbolt it, move it

The catch: The 4" x 4" pole is the smallest square pole on our list, the glass is 5/16" rather than 3/8", and the warranty is 5 years. For a family with teenagers who play hard, the GS60C or THOR Gold are built for more abuse.

Best for the first real glass hoop for a family on a $1,000 budget.

• Board 60" glass 5/16"
• Pole 4" x 4"
• Overhang 2 ft
• Height 7.5 to 10 ft
• Warranty 5-year limited

• 60" tempered glass under $1,000
• Board pads and pole pad included
• Anchor-kit mount, relocatable if you move

The catch: The overhang is 2 ft, the shortest on our list, so layups end close to the pole: buy the pad, keep it on. The 4" pole is a two-piece design, and the 5/16" glass is thinner than the 3/8" on Goalrilla and Goalsetter hoops.

Best for the lowest-cost in-ground hoop with a 60-inch board, for casual shooting.

• Board 60" polycarbonate
• Pole 3.5" round
• Overhang 24.9 in
• Height 7.5 to 10 ft
• Warranty 5-year limited

• $769.95, the lowest price we found
• 60" x 34" board with folded edges for rigidity
• Quick assembly: 90 minutes or less, per Silverback

The catch: The board is polycarbonate, not glass, and the 3.5" round pole is the slimmest on our list. The pole is buried and filled with concrete, so it stays with the house, and Silverback says it is not compatible with its anchor kit or Yard Guard. Accessories are not included.
