Goalrilla GS60C review

Best for two-car driveways that want Goalrilla glass and a lifetime warranty around $2,000.

$2,049.958.8/10Very good

Checked November 12, 2026 at Goalrilla. Available to order online.

Board: 60" glass 3/8"

60" x 36"54" · GS54C72" · GS72C
  • 60" x 36" tempered glass, 3/8" thick
  • One-piece 5.5" x 5.5" pole, half an inch more than the GS54C
  • Lifetime warranty that covers the glass
  • Anchor kit included: level it on nuts, unbolt it if you move

Orders typically process and ship within two business days; delivery dates depend on distance from the warehouse and freight carrier availability (Escalade).

The catch

The overhang tops out at 2.5 ft, so the pole sits closer to the action than on the THOR Gold or All-American, and the rim does not go below 7.5 ft. The breakaway rim is Goalrilla's medium-weight version, not the heavy one on the GS72C.

Installation

The Goalrilla GS60C bolts to an anchor kit set in concrete. Goalrilla gives the hole size and concrete in the manual for this model; check it before you buy bags. Let the concrete finish curing before you mount the hoop, and call 811 before you dig.

Warranty

Goalrilla limited lifetime warranty, glass included. Not covered: damage from hanging on the rim, net or backboard.

Our verdict · 8.8/10, very good · No. 7 of 14

The Goalrilla GS60C, in three lines

The GS60C is the sensible Goalrilla. For $2,049.95 on November 12, 2026, it gives you a 60 by 36 inch tempered glass board (3/8 inch), a one-piece 5.5 by 5.5 inch pole, a 9 inch anchor kit and Goalrilla's limited lifetime warranty, glass included.

It is the "best price" pick of our overall top half: the cheapest hoop among the seven highest scores. It is also the Goalrilla most people searching for one end up comparing, against Pro Dunk, Goalsetter and Silverback.

The catch: a 2.5 ft overhang and a 7.5 ft minimum height are the weak spots, both behind the Pro Dunk THOR Gold.

Fit

Who it's for

Buy it if

  • You want a brand-name glass hoop for about $2,000
  • Your kids are around eight and older
  • You might move and want to take the hoop with you

Skip it if

  • You want a 4 ft overhang
  • Your youngest is under seven
  • You can stretch $350: the GS72C gets you the 72-inch board
In detail

Where it sits in the Goalrilla line

Three GS models share the same design and warranty: the GS54C ($1,749.95, 54-inch board, 5 inch pole), the GS60C ($2,049.95) and the GS72C ($2,399.95, 72-inch board, 6 inch pole, 3 ft overhang). The GS60C is the one that fits most driveways. The step up to the GS72C is the better deal per inch of glass; the step down to the GS54C makes sense only for a narrow driveway.

In detail

GS60C vs the cheaper 60-inch hoops

From the same Escalade family, the Silverback SB60 ($1,099.95) and Goaliath Ignite ($999.95) also use 60-inch tempered glass and an anchor kit. They use 5/16 inch glass on a 4 inch pole and carry a 5-year warranty instead of lifetime. That is the roughly $1,000 difference: steel, glass thickness and how long Escalade stands behind it. See GS60C vs SB60.

In detail

GS60C vs Pro Dunk THOR Gold

This is the match-up people search for. The THOR Gold costs $349 more on its November sale and answers with 1/2 inch glass, a 6 inch 5-gauge pole, a 4 ft overhang, a 5 ft minimum height and pads in the box. If you want the cheaper buy, the GS60C is a sound hoop; if you want the better spec, the THOR wins. Full breakdown: THOR Gold vs GS60C.

Pros and the catch

What we like, and the catch

  • 60" x 36" tempered glass, 3/8" thick
  • One-piece 5.5" x 5.5" pole, half an inch more than the GS54C
  • Lifetime warranty that covers the glass
  • Anchor kit included: level it on nuts, unbolt it if you move

The catch: The overhang tops out at 2.5 ft, so the pole sits closer to the action than on the THOR Gold or All-American, and the rim does not go below 7.5 ft. The breakaway rim is Goalrilla's medium-weight version, not the heavy one on the GS72C.
