Hi there! I welcome you back to my site. For this post, I have decided to side-step away from the topic of billiards and thought I’d promote another gaming product in the form of air hockey.
This is in relation to earlier posts regarding other table top games like pool table, foosball, and ping pong to name a few. Today, I’ll be going over a table top air hockey table that I found on Amazon that you can enjoy playing with another partner.
This particular product is called the HX40 Electric Powered Air Hockey Table by Sport Squad. It is priced at $52.37 at the time that I am conducting this post, and has mostly favorable reviews.

Hi Armand,
Sounds interesting!
And since it is portable it makes it something more interesting. This could be a game all family members can play.
Unfortunately shipping the item only to US. I believe there must be similar item around here in Malaysia that I could check out.
Thanks for the review.

Hi there, Joe! This item can be enjoyed with friends and family that can last for hours. It can possibly make for a good ice breaker as well where you can also make good friends.
Yes, this table is only available within the country of USA. I’ll go over a similar table that can be available worldwide including Malaysia. Stay tuned, and thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. Cheers!

Didn’t think you could get air hockey tables for such decent prices; I’m really amazed! Thanks for the detailed review of the table, now I really know a lot more 🙂
Do these air hockey tables require high maintenance? Seems like the fans and other components are going to require rather regular cleaning and servicing. Is that the case?
Also, which do you think the best tabletop game is? Air hockey or foosball? I personally find foosball to be the more fun and enjoyable sport, but the tables are insanely expensive 🙁

Hi Manika! Thank you for checking out this post. Yes, there are quality hockey tables, let alone (an almost) portable ones like this are affordable and available.
To answer your questions, these air hockey tables don’t require high maintenance. As long as you take care of it by not bumping into it where it falls off a tabletop, you should be fine. In regards to other components to cleaning and servicing, I’ll get in contact with you as I’ll contact the manufacturer and ask them the same question.
In my honest opinion, I agree with you, and find the foosball table version to be more of an enjoyable activity. This is primarily the reason because you’re using both hands during play compared to air hockey where one hand is basically using just one hand. I have done a review of a table top foosball table that’s inexpensive that you can check out. I hope it’ll pique your interest.
Stay tuned as I’ll provide you the answer to your second question…

Hello Manika. I apologize for the delay. I was still not able to find an answer to your second question at this time. I have gotten in contact with Amazon regarding this. However, there was one customer who stated, “Not sure about the models out today, but when I was a kid, we had one that lasted through 5 of us without any maintenance.” I have also gotten in contact with the manufacturer, Sport Squad and have gotten no response. I will try and get you the answer to your question. I hope within a few days. Sorry for the inconvenience.
