Really high quality content especially for 18 subs.Bro i have done the worst videos on the whole platform and got 100.Definately subscribing. IDK why youtube hasnt given you space to blow up!
Appreciate the kind words! Think I need to make more than one video...working on it!
Great video, thanks. Been researching tables. Lots of useful info here. Keep making your videos!
I've been keeping my gosports 7ft outside and so far so good. It's only been a week since I got it, but I put down small pavers under the feet to keep it off grass and to level out with. Used a small car jack and 2x4, and 2x8 to keep the middle from sagging. When not in use, I put foam board insulation on the table surface cut it 37x74 I believe. Then purchased heavy duty weatherproof tarp, tied it down and set a ladder on top. It has D rigs so I'll probably get stakes for it. It's not a slate table but it's great for practicing in my opinion. I work a lot but I play APA double jeopardy on Thursdays and as a 6/6 I get matched against people that play all the time. And I'm saving some quarters. I have a video I'll put up showing how it plays outside. Props to OP for his awesome video review very detailed!
Definitely saving some quarters. Thanks for the awesome comment! You should definitely put up a video, I'm sure plenty of people looking for mods for this thing. Myself included.
You earn more sub for this deeply review product 👍👍👍👍 great job
Very well done. You covered some influential aspects others don't. Good work and much thanks!
Thank you!
Great tip with the adhesive leather.
WELL DONE. You explained this excellently. Thank you.
Thank YOU!
Excellent objective review. I think you evaluated it very well. Thank you!
Appreciate it!
I don’t know why everyone is saying it can’t be taken apart and modified. It had to be put together, so that means it can be taken apart. At minimum to change the felt/bumpers so the table plays faster. Pretty sure these net pockets can be changed out too. How thick would you guesstimate the mdf board is? Why does it sag, when the two parallel bars are supposed to add rigidity and prevent sag. I understand its limitations and its intended purpose at its price point hence majority of us have searched “folding pool table.” Thus is not the iPhone of pool tables, its more like Obama phone and it functions/performs its intended purpose.
thanks, I appreciate the pro's/con's...I've been studying many tables for sometime now in my price and space range and for my all white modern minimalist decor....I'm going with this one, I'm gonna build a whole new base, of modern art/Jetsons look..very modern built in LED effects....bought the 7' blue felt table...expecting it in a few days.... when done will be a couple inches taller but able to remove the whole table top if needed...oh and making it all white....I love a challenge... to make it appear meatier....everythings white in my place...but tons of hidden ambient and special effects to turn anything white to any color of the spectrum...thinking of adding clear tube ball return...easy peasy...
Sounds awesome! Hope you share finished product to the world.
That’s an awesome and honest review on the table! I’m hoping to get one as well eventually, especially in the 7ft version with red felt for me! Plus where can buy the leather for covering the staples in the pockets?
Hey thanks, glad to hear it! I got the leather on Amazon here: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C4PQQBV1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1&_encoding=UTF8&tag=formerapa3-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=4bd785f9110ee273651b6c6286a31fdb&camp=1789&creative=9325
Great vid! I have one too. Slate is 1 inch MDF, looks like it can be removed and replaced with new felt. Someone recommended placing expanding shower rods between the legs (along the long rail) to keep the table more stable. Another said that ironing the felt makes the table play faster. I haven't tried that yet. A friend already took a huge chunk of the felt with his sloppy power break, so maybe I'll try ironing it sooner than later. When I have friends over, we drag the table outside to my apartment building's rooftop BBQ. It's nice.
Nice! Nothing like outdoor pool. Thanks for info on MDF. So far the best thing I've done for the felt is run a Roomba on it.
@@formerAPA3 Ha! I bet the roomba is great at straight pool
This was super helpful!
Thanks!
Howdy, thanks for the excellent review! Think all the information shared was helpful, especially for a newer player. I have been thinking about buying this table lately. One thing that has held me back was that i wasn't sure it could be reclothed when the time came. I know you said it couldn't be reclothed in the video....but are you sure it couldn't be done? I would even consider replacing the playing surface with new MDF/etc playing surface if that could be done. Can the table be taken apart at all? Is a little hard to see the bottom side of the table. Sometimes if there is a will there can be a way for someone who really wants to make it happen. Again, thanks for the review and any thoughts on this matter would be appreciated.
Hey there, thanks! Looking at the table now, there are multiple screws along the sides and bottom. I think if you really wanted to, you could find a way to take it apart. To be honest though, I'd be concerned about overall stability of the table after you put it back together just because of the materials it's made out of (plywood). I don't think they're resilient enough to be screwed back together and be as stable/square/level as before as compared to slate tables designed to be refelted. I could be wrong, but that's just my hunch. Either way I'd love to see someone try.
have had this table for 7 months, the balls bounce out of the pockets on about 30% of the shots, cues it come with are junk, the balls are okay but i purchased a set of aramith crown standard balls recently and they do perform better in my opinion. definently reccomend for a first pool table or if you dont have a lot of space. i am thinking of getting a olhausen table soon to replace this one
Save another 1000 to 2000 and buy a used slate table. MDF will warp and these never play true.
No argument there if you can swing it.
You were awesome at explaining everything thanks
Will you recommend this to become better ? If you don't have to go to your local bar?
Yeah that's pretty much why I bought it. I think I've actually come out ahead not running up bar bills at this point!
what are the balls specific sizes? thanks for the reply 😊
Hey there--granted I don't have a calipers, but after 5 minutes with a tape measure I can say they're between 2 3/16"-2.25". They appear to be the exact size as my Aramith Super Pro cue ball, which is billed as 2.25".
Who do you work for?
Myself.
Table is slow af and warped like a mf
Apa sucks
