9.0/10Excellent

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.

Goalrilla GS60C

8.8/10Very good

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.
