9-in-1 Combination Game Table




We got this game table a couple of years ago for the kids. It's quite sturdy and at around $300 has a pretty low price point for what you get:
  • foosball
  • mini pool
  • air hockey
  • shuffleboard
  • mini ping pong
  • table bowling
  • chess, checkers, backgammon

This is one of those toys with impressive staying power. It may get ignored for awhile, but then the kids will get excited about one of the games and it gets played hard for weeks (pool is the current "cool" game). The foosball is good enough that I play with friends who are used to a Tornado and they only complain a bit.

The foosball unit is a bit awkward to lift on and off, so we still help with that. But the other games are drop-dead easy and the pieces even store pretty well out of the way.

Table games are nice "in-betweens" for when it's too cold or rainy to go outside, but you don't want to sit totally still and play video or board games. Definitely recommended.
