Pugg Pair of Pop Up Goals

This was one of our best purchases for our three boys. They get so much use, and dragged around our neighbourhood. It's been 1.5yrs since we bought these and they are still perfect, and have been through the wringer, thats for sure! :)

I don't rate very many products, but given that we use these just about every day, I figured I should probably share my good experience. We bought some PVC goals about 2 years ago. They worked pretty well for awhile, but as time wore on they disintegrated. So for my son's 5th birthday we got this set of 2 PUGG goals. We've had them for a few months now, and they are working great. To make these last longer I wanted to be able to take them down after each use and put them away so the sun didn't destroy them. Just about every day my boys want to go out back and play soccer. It has not been a big hassle to put these away, and they are holding up great so far. I don't see a single sign of wear and tear so far. I have been very pleased. There are many pros to list, so I will be brief. 1) Good durability 2) Ease of setup 3) Features to stake the goal down are integrated and work well 4) The size of these is perfect when you have a kid (my oldest is 7) that wants to play goalie 5) The bag is easy to carry around and putting the goals in it can be done very quickly (although you do have to do both at once, one at a time will get the corner of the second one tangled in the net of the first) 6) Price - I did a fair amount of comparison shopping and being able to get these for $80 bucks was a great deal. Most of the time you have to buy these one at a time, and those will run $50-75. Getting a pair for $80 was great. And since the quality of these is so good, I don't expect needing to buy another goal for 10+ years. The one and only con I would give them is that the method to fold them back up might be an issue for someone more petite. I'm 6'5" and 200 pounds and it has taken a little practice to be able to twist these up and fold them back into a storable position. I could see someone with a smaller wingspan than I having trouble. Getting the 4 foot goals would probably be much easier. Also one adult and a 7-8 year old could probably tag team it really easily. The problem is that you have to grab one side and pull it, then with your other hand grab and twist the corner of the frame on the other side. Creating kind of a twisting scissor effect with your arms. Not even a big enough problem to knock it down a star, but worth mentioning to an online buyer.

This is a quality product and exactly as described but be aware that it really is only suitable for small children. Any fully grown person that stands in front of it blocks most of the goal and makes it very hard to score in. I bought them hoping they would be good for a fun game in the park but unfortunately the hour long game yielded only 3 goals. Next time we'll have to go back to using jumpers for goalposts.

Just fits in back of a large car - rather large but ... goes every where with us. I have to carry the thing to the park every day. It attracts all the other kids for a game of football.. so cool and makes football friends. Doesn't rust in the garden as we bring it back in. The dad said what a waste of money but I have found its a must have buy now and he would agree.

Top quality, exactly what we had hoped for. The nets are solidly built, and the kids are having a blast using them in our backyard. The convenient storage bag is easy to pack and unpack and takes up virtually no room so you can enjoy these soccer nets anywhere your soccer game takes you.
