We had a 30'x30' basketball court installed behind the house, and knew from previous experience that we wanted it lit (the boys love playing at night). We planned to buy a parking lot type light and pole, but saw this light for about a 1/3 of the price. After watching the other review videos, I decided to buy it. Long story short, it's fantastic. It lights up the entire 30'x30' court, is high enough that (so far) it's never been hit by the ball, and it's sturdy. I would recommend.
