Features

• The G 500 is made of high-quality MDF material. It is very sturdy and durable and it is further strengthened by designing the table with a thickness of 1 inch. The durability and sturdiness of the table are dependent on how the thickness of the table is. If the table is thicker, then the durability and sturdiness are normally high. This sort of thicker table is usually judged as the higher end.

• The lower end table is usually half an inch thicker and is made of materials that are flimsy, unlike the higher end quality tables which are made of higher quality materials. The best of the Garlando G 500 table is of 25 mm thick MDF cabinet with melamine coating.

• The player rods are made of Cold drawn steel rods and has a wall thickness of 2-3 mm. The surface finish of the rods is of high quality and as smooth as one can imagine. They are stronger and perfectly straight which allows very smooth gameplay. In order to increase the durability of the steel rods, the rods are plated with 5 microns of chromium. This eliminates rusting of the player rods.

• The player rods are also equipped with springs and plastic handles. These confirm high grip. These telescopic rods do not come on the other side and provide additional safety. This helps while small children playing the game so that it does not anyone in the play which is very important. The Rods allows the player a very fast play which tends to make the game more interesting.

• The surface is made of tempered glass. This is not the normal table surface which you find in ordinary Foosball tables. It provides an ultra-smooth surface which enhances the gaming experience leaps and bounds.

• The metal legs are rigid and hence are not prone to any movement while in play. It is a fact that tables that move a little or do not move at all provide very optimal playing conditions. The area of the metal legs is 9 x 9 square centimeters. This increases the competition level and the players on either side have the same scope of winning the play. The metal legs are further protected as it covered with washable powder varnish.

• The corners of the table are cornered. This keeps the ball in play at all times. So, the player would focus on the game without any second thoughts and each and every game has interesting gameplay. The side panels are also perfectly curved. The wood handles are also designed to support a comfortable gameplay and reduce perspiration.

• Steel rollers are used with the custom-designed rods which greatly enhance the gameplay and the speed of each game. Players do not hurt their wrists as the stress applied is reduced drastically. The ball bearing bushings are encased with Nylon.

• The players are guaranteed to be unbreakable. The Red and Blue players are molded on to the bars and made of perfect plastic with no predetermined breaking point.

• Other notable features include 360 degrees rotating goalie, very easy and immediate ball retrieval through and an exit behind each goal and a goal counter in Grey/White.

The only drawback in this version of the table is that there are no leg levelers in this table, hence setting the correct height of the legs are somewhat hideous. But it is not a big deal unless you place the table on an uneven floor.

It has unbreakable players which are not counter balanced. This result in some shots being blocked your own players. This is another drawback.
