Fat Cat Air Hockey Table With LED & Abacus Scoring
Fat Cat Storm MMXI 7-Foot Air Hockey Game Table
The design of this hockey table is very simple, maybe too simple for my taste. It is all black without any decoration and on the playing surface (which is white) are few red details including the brand logo in the middle. The table has a board between the legs for better stability so you can play intense and be sure the table won’t move. The entire table is made of high-quality materials so you can expect it will last for some time.
The smooth white playing surface and a 100V blower which has the output of 80 cubic feet can provide you a fast and exciting game of hockey. The scoring system is both, manual and electric. The electric scoring system has a timer so you can set the game to last 10 or 15 minutes which can come handy if you are playing a tournament with friends. If you want to play without boundaries, then just use a manual scoring system which is located on the side of the table. With this table, you will get 2 pushers and 4 pucks so you can play the game as much as you like.
Fat Cat Pockey Table
Fat Cat 3-in-1 Multi Game Table
One of the most popular multi-game tables is this Fat Cat 3-in-1 flip game table which consists of 3 one of the most popular games. The table has air hockey table, pool table, and table tennis cover. The Fat Cat air hockey pool table comes with the tabletop that consists of air hockey and the pool, while the table tennis comes separately and you can put it on the table when you want to play it. When you want to change the tables you have to flip the tabletops with the special lever and it is actually simple and quick transformation.
The table tennis cover on this Fat Cat pool air hockey ping pong table is made of MDF board with printed lines for the table tennis playing field. The air hockey part has a motor that blows air and moves the puck quickly across the surface which makes the game more interesting. The playing field looks a lot like other Fat Cat air hockey table models, meaning it is white with red graphics around the middle of the field. The pool table is covered with green velvet cloth and it has pockets so it looks like a read pool table.
Fat Cat 7 Foot Pool Table
Fat Cat 2 In 1 Pockey Table
If you aren’t a fan of ping pong, you can also choose this Fat Cat pockey table with only air hockey and billiards. It has a design very similar to Fat Cat 3 in 1 flip game table, but it is still unique in its own way. Dimensions of this Fat Cat pockey table are 80″ L x 44″ W x 32″ H and because of its height even kids can use it.
To change from air hockey to billiards, all you have to do is flip the playing surface. This Fat Cat pockey game table includes 4 pushers and pucks, 1 resin triangle, set of billiard balls, 2 hardwood cues, 1 billiard brush and even 2 pieces of performance chalk.

Fat Cat Hockey Table With Spring-loaded Puck Ejection Levers
Fat Cat Super Slickshot Air Hockey Table
The design is pretty similar to the Fat Cat Storm MMXI 7-Foot Air Hockey Game Table because of it black with the white playing surface. Actually, the surface looks pretty identical, the only difference is in the legs. The legs on this table don’t have a board between them, but they are more stable (they don’t need the board). Also, on each corner of the table is silver line spreading from top to bottom and it looks like a dining table which makes it easy to blend in your home.
The playing surface looks identical and feels identical to the table I reviewed above. But, this table has innovative spring-loaded puck which provides you to continue the game after scoring almost immediately. The interesting thing about this table is the fact that it includes 4 pushers and 6 pucks. Usually, you will get 2 or 4 pucks and 2 or 4 pushers with one table. If you are looking for an air hockey table for your home and your friends visit you often, this Fat Cat air hockey table might be the one you are looking for.
Fat Cat Foldable Air Hockey Game Table
Fat Cat Aeroblast Air Powered Hockey Table
This Fat Cat air hockey table isn’t made with high-quality materials like other tables, but that doesn’t mean it is not a good quality table. It is made for families with kids and teens and it has one special feature. That feature is the fact that you can fold the legs on the table and set the entire table up against the wall. This special design of the Fat Cat air hockey table makes it very popular because it saves space when you aren’t playing it.
The scoring system is located at the side of the goal, although I like the location above the goal better. The table is actually pretty simple and the only electronic part of the table is the blower which you have to plug in the household outlet so you have to be near it when you want to play the game. The good thing about the table is that it comes with small wheels on the front legs (the ones that won’t fold) so you can easily transport it.

Its simple flip design will transform a Fat Cat air hockey table to pool table in seconds, and vice versa.
