Jo: We had it for two days and my 6 year old slap shotted the plastic puck and the whole end of his stick broke off. We had to go to Canadian tire online and order a new one.

EJ Choi: Easy to assemble and light to carry out

Robert Theisen: My son has never played hockey, but recently go into it when he earned a free hat from our local NHL team for reading a bunch of books. I bought him the set as an intro to playing the sport, and it has been the best thing ever, according to him. "I can't stop smiling when I'm playing." "This is so much fun. This is the best". He's over the moon about it, and in just one day I got my money's worth on this set. I'm happy he's playing outside, and he's excited to learn new skills and a new sport. It's unbelievably easy to put together.l, but sturdy. We've put a lot of slapshot's into it already. Sticks are a good length, I only hunch over a bit at 6' when I play. The sticks will wear out, but if my kid actually wears out a toy from excessive use I'll happily replace it.

Shauna: Kids love it. Easy to put together

syngeskal: I ended up buying two sets, as two sets is what you really need in order to have a game (two goals).

My first set arrived with parts that did not fit no matter how hard I tried to put them together. I returned it and got another, which worked. Then, I ordered another set and it was fine.

The caveats: the parts are not the easiest to assemble right, but very easy to assemble in a rough way with some alignment issues. Make sure you don't follow the pictorial instructions and make sure to place the net prior to assembling unlike what the picture shows (only the frame).

The hockey sticks need to be screwed into the wooden handles by hand. You need a Philips screwdriver. The sticks come with plenty of splinters (tiny, almost invisible). They need to be fine sanded or you might end up with many prickly things in your bare hands. Once sanded, I suggest you oil or shellac it.

The overall set is very functional and quite usable for little kids - they really enjoy it if they are into floor hockey.

This set is made in USA, which is a huge positive for me and the plastics do not come with funny smells, which is great.

Now, if you come across a bad...

Best Hubris: There is a time in between where your kid grows to strong for the plastic, easily broken sticks with blades attached by tabs or plastic anchors, but before they are ready for a "real" stick that cost $50 each. This set is PERFECT for that gap. These are real wooden handles with solid, hard plastic blades that fit over the handle and are secured with a wood screw. The result is two sticks that can be used at full power on a concrete basketball court, or the backyard patio. The ball is plastic that doesn't bounce too much, but isn't too hard either. As far as I'm concerned that is full value right there, and the goal is just an added bonus. The goal itself is basically ABS pipes that slide together. It falls over easily in the wind, but is simple to weight by throwing a water bottle on the back, or whatever.

If you want to play street hockey with kids that break plastic sticks too easily, but aren't advanced enough yet to know about how the blades should be curved, this is exactly the set you are looking for.

Saoirse: I bought this set for a 6- and an 8-year-old so they could practice in my cement driveway without ruining sticks designed for ice. I suspect that both net and sticks will last far longer than I thought they might.

The PVC joints on the net are flexible enough that it sits flush with the cement regardless of a bit of a slope. It's very light in spite of the sturdy base. The boys can carry it in and out of the garage by themselves, which is a big plus for me. The sticks included are thick and solid, and the plastic blades actually screw into them, so no flying blades or duct-tape! When the blades loosen up, all you have to do is to tighten the screws. I don't think either kid could snap one if he tried.

If I were going to nit-pick, I would point out that the sticks are rigid enough to significantly inhibit slapshots, but personally I think their durability is an excellent trade-off (and I don't mind a bit if slapshots get practiced where there aren't any windows). It should also be noted that the ball provided with the set is rather large, extremely light, and very squishy. It might boost confidence in a much younger child, but older players will need a real street...

Tinkerbell: This was a great deal, and worth the money. My son loves it and he is 4.5, I would not recommend for older children as it is lighweight and would be a nusance.
