Must be because "staff" posted it. It doesn't look like a bad deal, but shipping reviews are all terrible. Sounds like they arrive beat up / damaged more often than not.

This table sounds like total junk.

I grew up with an MDF table. It is not competition. Do not get them wet, but you can still have a lot of fun on them.
Now that I'm an adult I have a full 1" slate solid hardwood table many multiples more expensive than this. I adore my pool table. Would I have the table advertised here? No. Would I buy the Walmart table for kids for a playroom? Absolutely yes.
As long as your expectations are right, this looks like a nice, family fun room table at a very approachable price point. Let's leave the tables that cost 20X as much out of the conversation.
Here is the rub. The slate (even though in 2 or 3 pieces) is unbelievably heavy. I had to hire a mover to help me. Second, the table will need to be assembled, leveled and re-felted once it is in your home. Part of the leveling process involves making the joints in the slate seamless by melting wax onto the joints and scraping them down. The assembly and leveling is something you can do yourself if you're patient and somewhat mechanically inclined. The felting, on the other hand, is a real art. I tried to do it myself but ended up calling in a pro.
I should have had a shop move, assemble / level and felt the table for me. It would have cost $700-$1,000 if memory serves. I'm in the northeast though.
Glad I have a real table. Hope this helps someone.
But, this is a disposable pool table, and spending just 3X the amount will get you something that will last much, much longer and actually look like something nice, instead of what this is.
