Air Hockey Tables: Fire Up Your Game Room
Air hockey tables transform your dedicated relaxation room, game space or man cave the moment one appears. It's instantly recognized by pre-teens, grown adults and everyone in-between as a sign of awesome entertainment—and a time for competition. It's easy to spend an afternoon leaned over your side, guarding your space and waiting for the puck to wander over to your side before knocking it into the goal and calling your win. When you've got the space to invest in a game, air hockey tables are certainly an option you should consider. That's especially true if you've got kids, are planning on inviting friends over often or love a little bit of competition.
Mechanical Aspects to Look For
If you're not sure how to choose from our air hockey tables, you're in the right place. While it's hard to make a bad choice with quality products, there are some features that might make your play more enjoyable. Maybe a working quarter slot makes the action feel more real—or you want to keep play limited for the kids by handing them just a few quarters. If you do have little ones playing, keep an eye out for models that can be adjusted in height. Otherwise, what you'll be searching for is mostly style and league certification.
A Style to Match Your Space
Unlike the model in the arcade you may have frequented decades ago, you've got choices when it comes to buying your own air hockey table. Before choosing, consider the area you'll be installing it in. Are you recreating that arcade vibe yourself in your basement, complete with pinball machines and video games? Or are you going for more of an elevated feel, with a burnished wood bar nearby and a pool table on the other side of the room? Make sure you pick a model that fits your mood well. An arcade feel might have a brightly-colored model with overhead scoring that lets nearby friends keep track of who's winning.
If you're going for more of an elevated look, skip bright colors and overhead scoring and opt for air hockey tables with more of a neutral vibe. You'll still find powerful features, like blasting blowers that keep performance completely reliable. Some models are even sanctioned for tournament play—serious users can find ways to practice with air hockey tables from Abt, too. These models won't look out of place in a space catered towards adults thanks to a muted color scheme and mature build. Invite friends over to christen your new machine with competition in your game room, then collapse on a nearby sectional. Whether you're gifting the air hockey table to kids or adults, you get to fall in love with it first.
