5 stars may be premature, time will tell but, right now it's accurate.
5 stars may be premature, time will tell but, right now it's accurate. First this item arrived on time and intact. The corners were bolstered inside and outside with Styrofoam inside and a flexible type foam outside. It came yesterday. Everything was there and, I examined all the contents closely today and tried it out;The BED: If the bed isn't true you're not shooting pool, some other game but not POOL! This is heavy for it's size. I noticed setting up that it did not twist, flex, warp or skew, noticeably anyway. I then put a table level in the center and then moved it all around. It read the same everywhere, very near dead on. But, this was on linoleum and without the adjusters installed. I then pushed down next to the level in a few places away from the sides and it didn't register much at all.The STICKS: One is dead straight. The other has a slight bend but you have sight down it to notice it or roll it and look closely, seen worse used in bars & halls-even for money ball. The tips may not be leather but I don't believe they are wood either like some have said. Whatever, they were intact and firmly attached. I pressed on them laterally with my thumb and it had no effect. And, the finish on them is adequate. I do not foresee any problems with splinters as others have mentioned.The BALLS: I examined all 16 and there are none with chips. I still have another set, same size, from the early nineties when my kids were in grade school (the table is long gone) and the only way to tell them apart is these are noticeably heavier. They are a good weight for their size. The colors are deep and rich on this set. Some of the stripes seem a bit wider but, only if your nit picking and, most of the numbers have a little over-spray. But, overall a nice looking set.The CUSHIONS: The cushions have decent rebound. I wish it were a little better but it's not bad. I hope they prove durable. Right now bank shots are not a problem. I do wish they had put the side markers in. But I made them myself with a corner of the chalk included.The FELT: The material seems quite thin and has kind of a coarse weave but it is down tightly, no ripples and, it doesn't slow the balls down too much. Wondering how long it will be good with 4 kids. Right now it's ok.The LEGS: The legs are a sturdy gauge of square tube steel with a good even coat of black paint, no bare spots. And, they seem firmly attached to the bed, no wobble at all, for now... The diagonal braces are not flimsy either.One CON: The webbing under the pockets does seem to be a flimsy material. And, I can't really tell how they are attached to be table. If it is staples in particle board then filling them up with these balls could be a problem in the near future. But, I have some scrap 2" PVC I could rip length wise to make a ball return for it, if it proves to be a hit with the kids.CONCLUSION: Right now, day 2, I am a happy shopper. At just over a hundred bucks I believe even if you could do as well you won't do much better. It's at least really good to go for Christmas day. Oh yeah, setting up, for an adult, less than 10 minutes. Like I mentioned, it's heavy. I don't think a grade schooler can handle setting it up alone.

Great Beginner Table
Purchased this for my grandsons (3). They enjoyed playing on my full size table, and I wanted to give them a beginner table much like the one I started with in my younger years. This one is larger than my 1st table (as mine was 2x3', tabletop). They loved it! We set it up in minutes & had games going. My daughter & me enjoyed playing with the boys, and showing them how to hold the cues & play. My middle grandson (9), was the best of the group, he watched me make bank shots & put english on the cue ball. My daughter reported that he snuck into the pool room & practices his game while others were doing other stuff.I do have some issues, while minor, they are due to the low cost of the table. The pockets have brass looking corners, with wood screws. But shortly after we played a few games, the screws stripped out of the particle board rails. This caused us to keep a watch on the pockets & had to reseat the pockets. My son-in-law fixed the issue by adding bolts/nuts in place of the screws, but I don't believe that will work long with the particle board wood rails.My other complain is the cue stick tips. While they look real, they are only the end of a wooden stick. The table came with chalk, but the tip didn't hold the chalk as it wasn't a leather or even vinyl material. The other accessories were good (balls, rack). I also noticed the table rails don't have the billiard diamonds on them for aiming purposes such as a real pool table.I still rate this table high due to the price & it is a beginner table. It met my expectations because it peaked my grandsons interest in learning billiards, and beginning their quest for enjoying this great game in the future. I'm sure this Granddad will replace it with a full size model when they have a room to hold it.

I put it together!!!@
Its not the greatest pool table but for price very good. I use it for practice and to learn different popangle shots. I am progressing. Its smaller than a bar table and sticks are crap but i must emphasize it is still great for practicing. I had no problem with screws. I put them in tight and so far so good. Anyone who complains it doesn't stay together just didn't put screws in tight. I am 62 and put screws in and it has been fine since December

Loads of fun
For $200, this is probably the best investment I’ve made in something to alleviate Covid and winter boredom! It’s a real pool table on a small scale. The balls have good weight and make the same beautiful clack as full size. We didn’t experience any of the issues identified by others. The pool cues are nice and straight. The table is super convenient to fold and store. Love it!!

Dont by this garbage pool table .
Quality is very poor not worth the price screws on the pockets was broken and can't be fixed. Packing of the table on the box was very poor very cheap materials was used to make thos pool table no pride taken to make this if feel I was ripped off. All the pockets screws are coming or broken while there were packing the box the only reason why I didnt return it because my son wanted it so much and the shipping took for ever for it to come. I'm very disappointed.

A few issues
It was a nice table and would have loved to have it, but it was damaged in shipping. They did refund my money, so no complaints other than I now have to find another table. Not sure if I should re-order it.

Nice little table
Our house doesn’t have room for a full size table but my son’s been getting more interested in pool, so this was perfect. Good quality balls, and table is nice and flat. We preferred full size sticks over the ones that came with it, but overall it was a good purchase.

Horrible quality
Horrible quality. Sides are improperly made; ball kick is flawed. No diamonds.. took forever to arrive. Not happy with the quality. Also really low in height.
