Just built this table on my own without any help. Heavy and sturdy. Solid components. I like it. I’m not sure the exact weight. Maybe close to 150 lbs.
Even though exterior of box looked little damaged could tell care was taken to pack and was packaged well. I dragged it around my house to backyard and basement on my own cause wanted to surprise kids. I did not damage it with dragging.
I got the Allendale set which I like. Players just screw on by hand around/through the rod. Nothing complicated that people have commented on with other sets.
Took a leisurely 2-3 hours to build. Can probably get done in 1 hour with help if you’re on a mission. If I had to build it again for a friend, I could probably rebuild now on my own in an hour. They include wrench though I used socket wrench which made tightening bolts much quicker. And power screwdriver (nothing too powerful needed, I had cheap black and decker power screwdriver) makes things faster. Instructions were pretty clear. I didn’t have to do things differently or make modifications. I just made sure to put screws for game handles on bottom which was nice. Also, each component items are all labeled for easy to follow assembly.
Make sure you assemble it in room you plan on using it in.
Step 1: Put 2 legs together. (Wrench)
Step 2: Connect front and back legs with long rod.
Step 3: put legs on bottom of table and secure together (wrench)
Step 4: carry and flip table (I did this alone) but if you’re less than 6 ft and 200 lbs better to do with help.
Step 5: put rods on in correct order (look at instruction picture) with rubber stops and remember goalie location is to left side of player.
Step 6: put players on (done by hand no tools), faster with two people.
Step 7: put handles on (screwdriver/power faster)—I put screw on bottom so looks cleaner.
Step 8: add scoring tally on (power screwdriver for 2 screws each side)
Step 9: add ball release (power screwdriver 1 screw each side)
Felt this Foosball table not cheap. But not too crazy expensive for the quality you’re getting. Solid and should last…. I hope. 🙂
