Product Features
|
Playing-wise, the Burr Oak table supports one- or three-goalie play (users decide when setting up the game), with corner ramps to keep the foosball from drifting into the corners during one-goalie mode. And thanks to the triple-chrome-plated steel rods and cushioned rubber handles, you'll enjoy precise player control with every pass and shot. Other details include heavy miter-fold black vinyl legs with leg boots for easy leveling and a high-impact plastic ball return. Designed for ages 13 and older, the Burr Oak table measures 50.3 by 36 by 55 inches (W x H x D) with the rods extended and weighs 156 pounds.

A game room hit!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Carrom 750.33 Burr Oak Foosball Table (Sports)
I was looking for a nice midrange Foosball table to go in our basement game room. After a lot of looking and comparing I purchased the Carrom 750.33 table. It was shipped free and received in about a week. I put it together by myself (which is easy till you have to turn it over) in about 2 hours. It's nice and heavy and looks great. Don't expect it to be made out of real wood for this price, it's particleboard but it's thick and the wood grain sides look nice. If that's a problem you may want to spend the extra $300 + to get an all wood one. It's definitely tons better that the $200-$300 ones you will find at the big sports stores. It plays like the nicer bar room tables. I have a ten and thirteen year old that play on it with their friends. It's tough enough to take that kind of play. Overall I am very happy and gave it five stars because it was exactly what I was looking for.

Carrom 750.33 Burr Oak - a dissapointing experience, not worth the price,

This review is from: Carrom 750.33 Burr Oak Foosball Table (Sports)
We wanted to upgrade from a cheap fibre board store bought foosball table. The Carrom 750.33 Burr Oak table sounded good on the Amazon website, but turned out to be a dissapointing experience. I was expecting a more sturdy, well designed contruction, but found a flimsy fibre board contraption instead. It took the whole family of four people 3 hours to assemble it. The material used is no different from the low priced options available at sports authority. And there is no option to level the legs, despite what the description says. If you plan to buy a foosball table, pay another $100 to $200 for something better, or save your money and buy something on deal at Sports Authority.

This review is from: Carrom 750.33 Burr Oak Foosball Table (Sports)
Let me start by saying that I got this table as a Christmas present. I hadn't played foosball for 10 years, but used to play quite a lot. I had never played on anything but a Tornado table, and this is definitely not of that quality.
Pros: 1. Relatively inexpensive. You won't find a Tornado for this price. 2. Heavy. The table is stable, even with fairly aggressive play. 3. Sturdy. The legs are not going to break off, etc. Men also seem durable, as do the rods. 4. The playing surface is painted with a flat paint. A slick surface would ruin the game. 5. Despite all the negative opinions about rubber grips, I really like these. They are really solid, and are very tight against the rods. No chance of them slipping. Cons: 1. The bearings are sloppy. There is a fair amount of play(1/16"?) between the outer rod diameter and the inner bearing diameter. This has less of an impact than I thought it would on average play, but it does bother me. Advanced moves that involve precision and quick spinning will be impacted. 2. The balls are trash. They are molded with cute bumps to make them look like soccer balls, rendering them useless for play. Fortunately, you can buy good balls readily from Amazon for cheap. 3. The assembly instructions are miserable. There are a few parts (the table end caps, for example) that are completely left out. Again, not a big deal since it won't impact the performance of the end product, but a bit of an annoyance. It reminds you that you are buying a bargain table. 4. There are a few spots that you will need to pre-drill to get pieces to assemble - the ball drop cups, for example. Not mentioned in the instructions, of course. 5. Overall, pretty cheap construction. Completely made out of low quality (but thick) particle board. No real wood anywhere, no plywood, only flaky cheap particle board. 6. Floor is pretty thin - 3/8"? It seems like it may suffice, but I'm pretty sure I will find that there are a few low spots once I get round balls to really test the table. Could be remedied with 1/2 a day in a garage, gluing strips of oak to the back, but again, why should you have to do this? If minor low spots don't bother you, then no big deal. 7. Balls get deposited on the ends of the table. Nice to have them arrive on the sides, since that's where the players stand. 8. The men are severely not-counterbalanced. When turned on their side (a must for playing 1-1 games), they quickly drop back down. I will fix this by installing my own counterweights, but quite a hassle. I thought I might be able to balance the men upside down to get them out of the way of the ball (a work-around), but no- the men's heads hit the ball. Not a problem if you always plan on playing 2 vs. 2. 9. Many of the parts (rods, bearings, men) are not compatible with parts used on Tornado tables. I considered replacing the men with Tornado counterbalanced men, but the mounting methods are different. 10. Leveling is done with shims. No threaded height adjustments here. So all-in all, a reasonable table for the price. Don't fool yourself into thinking you've found a low cost Tornado quality table though! I would recommend considering shopping around for a gently used Tornado at a similar price.
