Transform Any Room Into a Game Room with a Fun and Stylish Foosball Table (2024)

Our Top Picks

Our number one pick is by high-end pool table manufacturer Barrington Billiards Company. The Allendale meets regulation sizing for tournaments and has a solid wood frame with metal reinforcements on the legs, as well as hidden levelers for extra durability and sturdiness without sacrificing aesthetics.

The dark oak wood stain contrasts the black legs and playing surface, making for a handsome appeal that'll go with almost any decor scheme. With hollow rods and non-slip handles, the counterbalanced players are easy to maneuver.

We also like that this foosball table has old-fashioned scoring beads for the nostalgic among us. We recommend having an additional person nearby when you assemble this table, which can be rather tricky to do if you're working alone. This is also the heaviest table on our list, so determine where your table will live before purchasing one.

For an attractive and functional option that won't break the bank, look to this foosball table from Best Choice Products. We also appreciate that this table has adjustable leg levelers to ensure sturdy and fair play on any floor surface.

At 48 inches, it's a bit smaller than a regulation table, but the ergonomic handles, realistic game pieces, and built-in cup holders make it worth the purchase. Traditional bead-style scoring and a detailed field layout make this foosball table a fun and realistic option for game night.

Made from engineered wood, this table does require assembly, so be sure to put aside at least 30 minutes and maybe commission a friend to help. It comes in three wood finishes, so you can easily match the rest of your living room decor.

If you're short on space or want a foosball table you can push to the side when not in use, your best bet is this table from Kick Monarch. This foosball table is a standard playing size, but it folds up and has two wheels for easy maneuvering into a corner. We also like that it is backed by a lifetime warranty in case of manufacturing defaults.

We think this table is great for a household with a family room that doubles as an entertaining space. This table is available in three finishes—brown, black, or gray—so you can choose a finish that best matches your home's style. You can even work with the manufacturer to choose the color of your players and balls to match your favorite sports team.

If you're hoping to keep kids occupied for hours, we recommend looking at a multi-game system like this option from Giantex. One side is a mini foosball table, while the other is an air(less) hockey table. Simply flip the game to your desired playing side and you're ready to go.

Some assembly is required with this table, and we recommend carefully storing small pieces for each game that may be easily lost. Just like our best mini pick, the Giantex 27" Foosball Table, this tabletop game can easily be stored when not in use, making it ideal for smaller households.

Though smaller than regulation-sized, the foosball table still has 18 mini-players and three non-slip handles. It comes with two balls, two strikers, and two air hockey pucks. While this foosball table is a great design for kids, it may not be the best option for adults looking for a multi-game system because of the small playing surface and low profile.

Weighing just 12 pounds, this tiny foosball table can be placed on your floor, a coffee table, or a dining table. It's made from a solid wood frame, has steel rods, and comfortable hand grips. This mini version is a great way to introduce kids to foosball before they can reach a full-size table.

This option is perfect for kids; it's even ASTM-certified to ensure it meets safety requirements for ages 6 years and up. It weighs just 8 pounds, the lightest on this list, so it's simple to move around your space or store in a closet or basem*nt.

It's also more budget-friendly than a full-sized table, but it doesn't compromise on any of the elements for fun and effective play. Plus, you can easily store this table when you're not using it. This table does require full assembly, which may be challenging, so we recommend having a helper nearby.

The Diletta is a multifunctional foosball and coffee table hybrid you can place in the middle of your living room. Interior designer Elizabeth Herrera recommended this table as an attractive, yet multipurpose option. We like that this table is made from durable materials, like wood, iron, and tempered glass, and it has five casters for easy maneuvering.

Whether you use this table as your TV room coffee table or place it in a dedicated game room in your home, its multifunctional design is a great alternative to a larger, bulky foosball table. "It is great for smaller spaces that can't house a traditional foosball table and is a unique addition that will seamlessly fit in with your furnishings and decor," says Herrera.

While you will have to sit on the floor while playing at this table, we think that's a reasonable compromise for the overall space this table saves in your home.

Calling all competitive foosers! At 56 x 29 inches, the Kinwood was built for tournaments and boisterous at-home games in your basem*nt bar or bonus room. It's got solid birchwood legs with levelers, plated chrome rods, and comfy octagonal handles.

You'll also appreciate the weighted, counterbalanced players and a traditional bead-scoring system. The faux concrete design adds a rustic feel to the table that experts and beginners alike will love to play on. The manufacturer recommends a room size of 9 x 8 feet to have enough room to move and play comfortably.

It's lighter than other similarly sized tables, but you'll need an extra set of hands for assembly. While it comes with everything you need for assembly, we recommend using your own tools for a simpler and quicker process.

If you appreciate upscale design with timeless finishes, you'll love this 57-inch foosball table from Pottery Barn. Constructed from solid wood, it's exceedingly sturdy and attractive. And unlike most other options, Pottery Barn will deliver this table fully assembled and place it in the room of your choice. The solid wood frame is undoubtedly heavy, so ensure to scope out where you want your table to live before ordering.

The rustic design is sophisticated yet timeless enough to become a permanent fixture in any game room. This item is made to order, so shipping will take a few weeks. As with most traditional tables, this one has adjustable leg levelers, two manual scoring systems, steel rods, and comes with four plastic balls.

Telescopic rods add a level of safety and function to your foosball table. Instead of your opponent's rods sticking out onto your side, they retract into the table itself. Now, you don't have to worry about accidentally hitting the other player as you play. This is especially important with little kids around who may accidentally run into the rods.

The regulation-sized table also has leg levelers, an automatic ball return, and a manual scoring system. We also love the players painted with realistic features. The gray table has a natural wood grain for a stylish appearance in any room in your home.

Assembly is required so grab a friend to help out. It comes with everything you need, but you may need a tool or two of your own to simplify the process. Also, the size and features of this table are best suited for teenagers and adults.

Final Verdict

The best overall pick is the Barrington Billiards Company Allendale Foosball Table, a regulation-size foosball table with a solid wood frame, metal reinforcements, hidden levelers, counterbalanced players, non-slip handles, and a timeless appearance. If you're looking for something a bit more affordable, we suggest the Best Choice Products 48in Competition Sized Foosball Table, our best budget pick, which has all of the features of a competitive foosball table at a slightly lower price and smaller size.

FAQ

• What is the standard size of a foosball table?

  Standard (or full-size) foosball tables can be anywhere from 48 to 56 inches long, 29 to 31 inches wide, and 34 to 36 inches in height. Within these ranges, the more critical aspect is that the table has the proper length-to-width ratio.

  There are also regulation-size foosball tables, which are best for preparing for a competition. These models measure 56 inches long and 30 inches wide.

• How much space do you need for a foosball table?

  Generally speaking, you should have at least 4 feet (48 inches) of space on each player side of a foosball table. For the ends, you need at least 18 to 24 inches so people can easily walk through and access the score counters. For instance, if you get a table that's 56 x 30 inches, you'll want to have at least 10 x 8 feet of open space in a room so players can move comfortably.

• How do you clean a foosball table?

  The proper way to clean a foosball table depends on the material. Finished wood can be dusted and wiped down with a mild cleaner or polish. Glass, laminate, linoleum, and metal can be cleaned with soapy water, an all-purpose liquid cleaner, or even diluted white vinegar.

  When in doubt, use products specifically formulated to clean the material. You shouldn't use harsh or abrasive cleaners on foosball tables, as those may remove the finish, the goal counters, or the field details.
