Not at all bad for a light duty basket. Arrival from CA to WI was within a week, and setup is intuitive and easy. The basket is pretty stable on most grass surfaces, and is light enough to carry around without too much difficulty. There is a short pipe with spring loaded keys on it to keep it all together in a convenient package when its not being used. One annoyance is that they use spring loaded keys to secure the pieces together, which is great, but there is no key to secure the top center shaft to the basket. That fitting is only a gravity dependent male to female pipe fit, which works fine for when the basket is stationary, but it comes out when you pick it up by the center pipe to move it around. Have to make sure you grab the basket too so it stays together. It could use some more catch chains on it as well, but that's an easy fix after a trip to your local hardware store.

This is a fun way to improve your putting -- just right for the backyard. After just a few days of putting with the family, we all really improved our putting during the game. In fact, there were a couple of "hero" shots that impressed everybody.
The only downside to this DGA M-14 is that it has too few chains on it. The discs hit it and bounce right back out. We added chains to make it comparable to the ones at the park. Now it's perfect.

This is a good basket for the back yard. It's fun to putt with. The fact that it only has 14 chains (as opposed to 24) will allow for some putts to blow through or bounce out but that doesn't detract from the fun. My first 1 I bought 5 years ago and it has been outside the whole time with no rust at all! I have three of them now- that in of itself is a testament to the quality and the fun.
