Hathaway Spartan 6 Ft Pool Table, with Ping Pong Multi Game Combo Tables for Family Recreation Game Rooms - Includes Billiard Balls, Cues, Paddles, Brush & More

5 stars. Arrived undamaged and no blemishes. Smaller than regular pool table, but exactly what we needed for small basement, and teenage boys. Also, pool balls are not regulation size slightly smaller. Took about an hour to assemble, directions not great, but easy to find out once started. No extra nuts or bolts. Not slate but will provide hours of fun. Balls track well. Looks really nice. Pool sticks are smaller than regulation, but we had our own. Great product for the price. We purchased on black Friday deal 2023 and did not open till Christmas Eve and very satisfied it was not damaged and looked great when assembled. Very pleased.

The media could not be loaded. Who doesn't want a pool table in their rec room? We forsure did, but we don't have room in our basement no matter what direction because it just isn't big enough, so we had to go with this little table. We purchased normal size sticks but will still use the small ones if tight shot. But this table is fine. Man playing is 5'11 200lbs playing with normal size stick and the mini balls it came with. Basement rec area is 320 square feet. Some of the reviews are on shipping and they must have stepped up their game. I had this delivered to my work. Because it has a dock and I thought that that might save it from being damaged. Upon opening the box, I noticed that they're was wood protection on the corners. It was packaged in two boxes with lots of styrofoam, so they did a good job of packing it. Two men delivered it and carried it off the truck with care. They waited for me to open it up and checked the felt to make sure everything was good before I signed for it. I believe having the dock did help. Because they didn't have to lower it from the truck to possibly drop but with the corner protector I think it would have still been fine. The ping pong is definitely small but still very playable. If you want a table for people to just have something to do while hanging out you won't get any complaints. We aren't hosting tournaments. We played 3 games of pool and 3 ping pong after getting this built and had some good laughs. We will be making some fun memories with this and that, is priceless. If you want a table to fit in your small area I recommend this, if you want to flashy table to impress your friends don't get this table. I would buy again.

All the negative one star reviews are regarding handling by the freight company, and one regarding size, so I thought it would chime in with a pool player's perspective. It's a small table, but that's the whole point of it. It saves space and still allows you to play while not breaking the bank. It seems to be packed pretty well. My only issue was that it was missing a few washers that I ended up not much needing. You can get away with assembling buy youfself and then turning upwards if you are careful, know what you're doing and have a decent amount of strength.The design is simple and very sturdy. Yes, it is mostly particle wood and MDF, but that goes with the territory. On a functional level it performs pretty well. The rails bounce great (though a little too strongly so you have to slow for realistic angle bank shots) and the table roll is very smooth. The ball doesn't die against the rail or only bounce one rail and stop or roll poorly. It's straight (once leveled), and even though it may not last forever it will probably last for several years if you take care of it and avoid liquids and moisture. It exceeds the local ratty bar table near me, which of course is old and dying; most times I would probably rather play on a more standard size (7-9').The balls are 2", so a step down from 2 1/4" standard size but work quite well here. It only took me a couple of games to adjust hitting spin and everything. But I also bought a set of the more standard balls and now use those for practice.The pocket size in the corners are 3 and 1/2 in, so smaller than normal, but still easy to shoot into, with smaller balls and shorter proximity (basically snooker pocket and ball sizes but smaller table). It all seems to work out. It feels a little easier than normal tables but provides a good pool experience and practice, and can be a fun change of pace.Keeping in mind it is not slate, the roll is a nice experience and you can get the ball around the table where you need it to off the rails.I've had a 7 ft and a 6 and 1/2 ft table and would probably keep this one just the same in order to save the space while getting out to the pool tables on the weekend (I live on the third floor).Hope this helps. I may decide to upload a video of actual gameplay.

I read other reviews of this table before I ordered. Most were positive, but a few were not, mostly dealing with damage from shipping. I received my table in great shape with no damage whatsoever, and within an hour had it assembled and leveled. We haven’t played table tennis on it yet, but the pool experience has been fantastic. Lively rails make bank shots easy. Aesthetically it’s a good looking table and sturdy. The cues aren’t great, and we have since replaced them, but at least they’ll allow you to play on day one. All in all very good value for the money, especially if you want to play legit pool with limited space.
