Questions & Answers
Once you've set it up, it'll be there for a long time. If you want to store it for an extended period of time, it can be disassembled; however, reassembling it will take about 30 minutes.
The warranty is unknown, but it appears to be quite durable. Mante, on the other hand, is a liar. The adjuster clamps on mine broke after a couple of years. It was still usable after another year, but the frame began to disintegrate, and one of the screw holes for the screws that hold the frame together has become stripped. However, we left it outside all year in Boston, except during a major snowstorm, and it was used by two children, so I am satisfied with its durability.
Is lacrosse the same as lacrosse? If that's the case, I'm thinking the same thing. I haven't tried it yet, but the holes appear to be excessively large. HOWEVER. I intend to purchase some inexpensive net from a hardware store and simply tie it over the front of the soccer net (the soccer net will provide the structure). The height is the only other factor to consider: Because most kids need to learn how to release the ball higher than they do, lacrosse nets are higher.
I have no idea. I purchased it as a present for someone else. I'll inquire as to who is using it with my daughter.

My 15-year-old son wanted to practice his soccer skills, so I bought this for him.
Good:
Re- The bounder is excellent; the galvanized steel post and frame design are excellent, and the net has held up well thus far. br>br>Contrary to popular belief, br>Instructions for attaching the bungee cords are incorrect. DO NOT place any of the bungee cords over the pipes. Another reviewer (thank you, puppymaster2) provided the following assembly information: "When the pipes are completely assembled, loop the bungee cords around the pipe and through the net, then loop the end over the bungee cord's ball. Begin at the top (red) corners with one horizontal and one vertical bungee, and then work your way down to the bottom (blue) corners. " The remaining ten bungee cords should be spaced and looped along the bottom, followed by the top. Finish the sides with the remaining bungee cords. ”
He was 100% correct, too bad I saw it after I assembled using company instruction and my son broke 2014 bungee cords% It lasted only a week with us. br>br>Update 4/23/2015br>I contacted Franklin Sports via the company website about my bungee cord issue, and I received a new set of bungee cords two days later. Franklin Sports' quick actions both pleased and surprised me. I will always buy sports items from Franklin Sports when they are available because of their excellent customer service and the fact that they stand behind their product. br>At this point, re-re-re-re-re-re-re bounder is great, and we haven't had any issues with it.
This purchase has made me very unhappy. I bought it as a present for my niece and nephew, and they just finished putting it together now that the weather has improved. The goal net broke after about ten minutes of kicking balls at it. A four-year-old boy and an eight-year-old girl were the source of this information. I used to play college soccer, so I'm afraid to see what would happen if I tried to kick it with a ball. I am unable to return it because it took a long time to set up as the weather warmed up. This is not a goal I would recommend because I doubt it will last long.
Although the instructions aren't very clear, we were able to put the frame together in about 15 minutes, and it's fairly simple until you get to the net. The net appears to be a tad too small, making it difficult to stretch out and attach with all the bungee cords. I understand that it must be snug to work properly, but it appears to be a little too small. The net itself appears to be of good quality, but the perimeter rope to which the bungee cords are attached appears to be a very cheap braided polypro rope with a diameter of less than 1/4 inch. It's not particularly sturdy to begin with, and while we were tying the bungees, I noticed that it was fraying and coming apart - As a result, I don't think this net will hold up for long. Because the net is so tightly attached, the perimeter rope must be extra thick and strong. The Replacement Net and Bungee Cords were $19, which caught my attention. On the Franklin Sports website, there is a 99 percent chance of winning. We'll most likely be placing an order for a replacement soon.
We got this rebounder for our 14-year-old son on sale for Christmas and put it in the yard a few months later. He uses it on a regular basis and enjoys having something to kick against in our yard for soccer practice. It returns the ball well and has been used by all of us in the family with equal success so far. br>br>There were a few issues, which is why I only gave it four stars. Assembly was not difficult, but reading some of the other reviews before getting started was helpful. Simply spread the elastic ties around the frame/net as evenly as possible. Because the elastic ties are of poor quality and have already begun to break, we ordered a bag of 6" ties from a different vendor to replace the ones that had broken. We'll see how they perform because they appear to be more durable. br>br>With the exception of an incident where another child got too close and accidentally stepped on it, breaking a length of netting near the bottom, the net has performed admirably. I was able to "patch" it with some Home Depot mason line, and it appears to be holding together and maintaining its spring. br>br>It appears that keeping it in place is our most difficult task. The spiral anchors are difficult to install in our soil, and the hoop anchors are easily pulled up. We purchased a few solid tent stakes from a local recreation outlet store and used them to secure the front legs. br>br>Overall, we're pleased with our purchase and don't think about it much while it sits in the yard being used by the kids. **UPDATE - br>br> *

Four years later, it' The tie downs are now on their second 25-count bag. I simply keep a bag on hand, and the kids change it out as the need arises.

I'm trying to decide if cleaning up those bits and repainting it is worth the effort. We no longer stake it down unless someone is serious about pounding it. It appears to work without them for everyday use. br>We're in the Western United States, where it's mostly dry.
The stakes aren't worth anything! To secure the metal poles in the ground, you'll need a few hooked ones. When a soccer ball lands on it for the first time, it topples. We're working on a better idea, but low stakes mean the net isn't being used. As a result, perhaps a one should be assigned to the overall rating.
