This is a wonderful piece of furniture for our game room.  Not a big green monstrosity.  It gets much use from rambunctious competitive boys and looks as good as the first day we purchased two years ago. Husband and I put together on Christmas Eve for Santa gift and marriage still in tact!  I sort of wish we would have purchased the pool table combo instead but who knows if the convertible aspect would be inconvenient.  For a ping pong table it creates an exclusive clubby feel and I’m actually happy to have it in my home!
