Tornado Classic II Foosball Table Soccer Game (Black)

I wanted to get the family a real quality table for Christmas that would last for years. Our previous table was a Harvard (don't laugh). I did a lot of research online. This table was rated highly on just about every site I visited. I knew nothing of the brand and it wasn't my first choice. But after extensive research on build quality and pricing I decided on this table. I went to Amazon and did a quick search and immediately found it at BIGFLYSPORTS. The great thing about them was that they had it in stock and at a price that was lower that anything around. As a matter of fact is was a great price. Once the shipment came (a week late) it was a chore moving it about. It's a beast, plus 250# easy. You will need a dolly to move it around, or a couple of strong friends. It comes in 1 big box. Once unpacked everything is straight forward. Read the directions, especially when it comes to installing the rods. The goalie rods are the shorter of the 3-man rods. also make sure you have all the men facing the right way or you will add additional time to the install. I would guess the assembly took about an 1 to 1.5 hours. Don't let your friends leave until you have installed the legs. The table is heavy and you will need help getting it upright. Once that's done you can finish the rest of the installation yourself.I have to say, this table exceeded my expectations. The build quality, fit and finish, was top notch. It made our last table (Harvard) look like it was made out of a cardboard box. The look and feel is first rate. Rod movement, striker construction and table design made me feel like I was playing in a tournament. The play on this table is unbelievably fast, when compared to our old table. Play is fast and crisp. There is nothing to take away from the action of the game, or the hours of fun you will have. I have never played on a table the fast. I would highly recommend this table to family or friends. If I could give I would give it 6 stars. Very satisfied Tornado customers in Rancho Cucamonga, CA.

This table is friggin sweet! The problem is that one of the rods has a problem where the grip won't stay on tightly. So as you turn it there is a little shift in the rod so you loose power. I contacted the seller and never heard back so am a little upset right now...UPDATE:I did finally hear from the company and they were EXTREMELY helpful in getting it fixed! They ended up accidentally sending the wrong rod as a replacement but quickly shipped the right one after contacting them and didn't make me have to deal with shipping the wrong one back which was nice! Happy camper now and 5 stars for this table!!!

Very disappointed after a ton of research and considering the expense compared to alternatives to have so many dead areas on the table. Leveled the table multiple times to confirm that wasn’t the cause of any issues. Dead spots are just all over the table. Childhood cheap’o table wasn’t this bad…

What a solid design!! Shipment arrived as scheduled. Assembly required more than one person but it was easy to get it all set up though. The handles, the rods, the heavy duty platform are all first class. Will last a life time I am sure.Sep., 2013The Tornado is still as solid as I first bought it after many rounds of holiday gatherings entertaining friends. Love the quality!!

Great table for a great price! Floor balancers look a lillte cheap, but other than that the table is rock solid!

Nice table and would have gave it a 5 star rating but after a few years the guide rod chrome started to flake off. After contacting the manufacture they told me that the table was out of warranty. This table hasn't been used that often and I felt it was more of a process issue in their chroming operation. Never the less they offer me a reduce price for replacement rods which were still overpriced. I thought I paid extra for a nice a high quality table but may have been wrong.

This is the third foosball table I have purchased this year, first Kick Liberty-too small, kids table now I know. Then the Kick Legend- good table but the play field and guys don't have as good of grip and control as the Tornado and probably would not have held up to hard play so in my opinion if you are really into foosball and want to play like a pro you must have a Tornado table. The Tornado tables come in four basic models and are only about $400.00 between each witch makes it kinda hard to decide witch one is for you, I'm on a budget so I went with the Classic model because for the money it has counter weight men, adjustable legs and the same play field as the T-3000 and so far I am EXTREMELY HAPPY with this table and doubt I will upgrade to the Elite or the 3000, they have thicker bars and three piece bearings witch are not as important to me (but are really nice). I just wish they cost a little less, but you get what you pay for. Happy Foosin!

The real deal. If you care about foos, this is the table to get. Took about 90mins to set up, and needed 2 people.
