Properly constructed with quality materials to PDGA specified dimensions, this practice basket easily breaks down for transport and erects quickly for use. Once constructed, it easily can be picked up and moved. Chains are a little on the light duty side vs Mach 2 baskets but still effective at catching putters and mid-ranges. Great value, proper 24 chain (12 outer, 12 inner) all secured with proper "S" hooks through welded eye loops so the chains don't walk (unlike cheaper baskets). The center post is in two pieces that are threaded and screw to the base frame. The top frame with the chains hang at the top of the pole, secured by a threaded top. Center poles are hallow so if playing indoors, a thin pool noodle or some gaffer's tape wrapped in strategic impact areas will quiet things down. In summary, it's a great deal. The only drawback with this purchase is there is no carry/tote bag included, although when disassembled, everything fits inside the main basket.
