Description
This tabletop snooker game set shrinks the classic table down to fit on a desk, a kitchen table or any flat surface. The table is 24.2cm long, 13.4cm wide and 6cm high, with a green flocked playing surface, a soft black flocked cushion around the edge and six pockets, just like a full-sized table. It comes with two slim black cues, a triangle for racking the reds and a full set of snooker balls: the reds, the yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and black, and a white cue ball. The balls are carbon steel, so they roll with a satisfying weight, and the whole set weighs 0.275KG.
It brings a proper game of tactics and skill to the table without needing a games room. Set it up after Sunday lunch for a family tournament, keep it on a desk for a quick frame between tasks, or bring it out on a rainy afternoon when everyone is at home. Kids can learn how snooker works, potting a red and then a colour in turn, while grown-ups will happily line up a careful shot of their own. Two cues mean two players can take each other on, and the small scale makes every pot feel like an achievement.
The table body is plastic and stands on four plastic feet with green tips, while the playing surface and cushions are flocked with acrylic and polyamide fibres for a soft, felt-like finish. The cues are made from plastic and paper, and the triangle is plastic too. A small drawer sits beneath the centre of the table. To keep it looking its best, brush the flocked surface gently with a soft dry cloth and wipe the plastic parts with a damp cloth. Because it is so compact, it tucks onto a shelf between games, and it makes a cheerful present for anyone who loves a frame or two.
