Foosball or air hockey?
«

So I have about $350 to splurge, and I'm just as big of a fan of foosball as I am of air hockey. However, I have the following options. I either get a second-hand foosball table from a friend with $300, but honestly, it looks a bit used, or I get a brand new air hockey table I found online, this one to be precise

. If you were in my shoes, what would you do? I am more inclined toward the foosball table cause it was my childhood passion, but I'm not a fan of second-hand.

I wouldn't come to a foosball forum and expect to get a non-bias opinion about which you should get. Is your friend offering up a Tornado? If its not a Tornado it is probably not worth the $300. Other high end tables are fairly rare in the US. Harvard and other brands may be $500 new but certainly are not worth the investment and will not hold their value... sellers usually ask $100 on craigslist. Get foosball... not even close. Get a used Tornado... probably be at least $500 used depending on the model but its worth it vs a cheapo table.

You do make a good point about the Tornado, not gonna argue with it. Maybe I'll loan some cash and just get both, but it's a long stretch at the moment.

You can always get the other one a bit later, no?

Went all out and bought both
Worth it, at least I have a fun activity in isolation.
