Air Hockey Tables

1. Having an air hockey table in your home is a reliable way to ensure those rainy days won't pass by with a boring thud. And here's the good news - air hockey technology has advanced such that even the inexpensive models deliver solid airflow and fast play. We know you've played on disappointing air hockey tables, and we don't offer those.

2. Air hockey game designers are also doing an impressive job at keeping the game fresh and new. Electronic scoring air hockey tables keep your mind on the puck, not on the numbers, and many tables offer exciting variations like midfield blinders to make the game more challenging and fun.

3. For example, some air hockey tables are being made with motion-detecting LED light bars that detect the puck and eliminate the need for a goal slot. What this means is that you can change the position of the goal before, or even during play. For an extra challenge, you can even split the goal in two.

4. Consider what kind of rails you want on your air hockey table. Aluminum rails provide the fastest play and least energy transfer, but those with young kids might want something that plays a little slower.

5. Teenagers tend to forget that things cost money, so if you're buying an air hockey table or other game table for your rec room, keep in mind the target player. Spending a little more up front might save you the trouble of having to repair or replace your air hockey equipment after a teen tournament.

7. We may be called JustAirHockeyTables, but we've got much more.

These table options come with two, three, or as many as 13+ games in one compact table. Talk about keeping your options open.

8. Still not convinced an air hockey table is worth the space required and money? We can't expand your basement, but we can tell you about table top hockey options. These pack a whole lot of fun into a compact and easy-to-move gaming surface that can be played on the floor, a table, or on collapsible legs. Naturally, these smaller, more portable options will save you a little cash, too.
