If you are an ardent foosball player, then you know there are certain things you just cannot stand.
Like when the foosball rolls randomly on top of the table. Or like when the table has heavy rods which make the game sluggishly slow.
A particular pet peeve for me would be when the foosball men aren’t counterbalanced, so I have to keep putting them back up during a game.
All these seemingly small details make all the difference between a good quality high-end foosball table and a cheaply constructed one.
So where does the Tornado Tournament 3000 Foosball Table lie?

Tornado Tournament 3000 Foosball Table Review
No products found.
Designed for competitive play, the Tornado Tournament 3000 Foosball Table is one that can withstand the roughest and most intense play.
The thick professional foosball table allows for the tabletop to be transported with the rods, handles and men intact so that setting up is easy. You simply need to assemble the legs and voila! You’re all set to enjoy a game of foosball.
At the same time, this split-cabinet design is better suited for heavy use, and it also increases the resale value of your table, should you choose to sell it some years down the road.
I bet that you wouldn’t want to sell this table, though. Right from your first game, you will find that the Tornado Tournament 3000 Foosball Table is worth every penny you spent.
Still, on the split-cabinet design, you will find that it allows for easy cleaning of the ball routes. This is because the design allows for free access to the inside components of the table. You will never have to deal with a “stuck ball”.
With this design, changing the playfield is also a breeze, should you choose to do so.
This foosball table comes with very resilient and elastic patented rubber bumpers. There is no chance of the ball running between the wall and the bumper.
The foosball men on this table come in two colors: black and yellow. They come with a metal core in the head and foot, which allows for more precise ball control as well as higher cross-hatching.
You will be happy to learn that the players are perfectly counterbalanced. This way, the men hold steady when placed in a horizontal position and don’t fall back to the vertical.
The 8-sided molded handles have a super high grip and are easy to spin as well. The handles are attached to hollow high-strength steel rods protected with a chrome-plating. These lightweight rods glide smoothly and are easy to maneuver for maximum ball control.
One particularly unique feature of this foosball table is that it comes with a positive 9 ball drop that’s been approved for tournament play.
Additionally, this foosball table comes with end protectors which help preserve the laminate edges of your table. This way, even after years of tough use, your table will still look good as new.
The table is equipped with patented, 3-piece bearings which allow for smooth linear and rotational rod movements. This reduced friction enhances the player’s ball control and shot performance.
The Tornado Tournament 3000 Foosball Table also comes with game and match score counters. The abacus scoring unit comes with game count score for active play. This way, a player can keep track of not only a particular match but the overall game as well.
This 3-man goalie foosball table is packed with a ton of accessories including 3 precision high visibility balls, a bearing wrench, a bottle of silicone, a pin punch and a rulebook.
Better yet, there is a complimentary spares pack which contains one man of each color, a bumper, 4 roll pins, and an original Tornado sticker.
