Review:

The Goalsetter GS48 48 Inch Glass Wall Mount Basketball System is a complete package with a height adjustable mount. The package includes the backboard, rim and all weather white net. The entire basketball system weighs 200 pounds.

Like all wall mount basketball systems, having one makes sure that there is enough ground area to play on. After all, wall-mount basketball systems do not come with the base that portable units have. These also do not come with a pole that in-ground systems have.

These are perfect on the garage wall or the side of the house. As sufficient room to play goes, this wall-mount basketball system has a 2.5 feet offset. This also makes playing a lot safer.

Wall-mount basketball system

The Goalsetter GS48 features a backboard that is made of tempered glass. Its dimensions are 48 x 32 x 3/8 inches. Tempered glass is a lot like regulation backboards and it is capable of true rebounds.

The Heavy Duty Flex rim deflects at a 15 degree angle with 30 pounds of pressure. It is equipped with a single spring. This Heavy Duty Flex rim is the typical rim Goalsetter offers for residential basketball systems. Attached to the rim is a white all-weather net.

This wall mount basketball system has an External Awning height adjustment mechanism that can easily adjust the rim from 7 to 10 feet in infinite increments. There is an easy to read rim height indicator at the side of the mast.

Assembly

Assembling this system can be a bit difficult. There are times when the holes do not align properly. The best thing to do is to pre-assemble the parts before putting them all together.

The Heavy Duty Flex rim comes with a two year warranty. The entire wall-mount basketball system comes with a lifetime warranty.

Bottom line: The Goalsetter GS48 48 Inch Glass Wall Mount Basketball System is a sturdy and height adjustable wall-mount basketball system. It may not be the most affordable or the easiest to assemble, but it is a solid and sturdy basketball system that comes with a lifetime warranty.
