It's a nice table, but that comes with a warning. My pants got caught on the corner pocket. As I "ripped" away, my gf shot and busted me in the nuts because I could not move. She laughed so hard she threw her cue and poked me in the eye. To this day I cannot walk by one of these tables without my butt seizing right up.

P.S. Enjoy your table friend.

You do realize that the table in the photo is not the same model pictured in your link to costco.

Contender LINE of tables includes multiple entry level models beginning around 14-1500 dollars.

The table is great - mine is a Contender Amherst. I don't particularly care for 8 foot tables at all - but these are good tables - inexpensive and they require very little upkeep. I am not wild about Brunswick cloth - if that is what is on yours, you might want to get it recovered. IMO, its a good, sturdy table - and it sure beats the hell out of $10 an hour table time.

Just be aware that the contender line of tables is a very entry level table for Brunswick. I am not sure about now, but they used to not even put their own name on the table, because the quality was not of their normal line. They were just called Contender tables. Any actual brunswick starts around $2200. I am not saying they are not good tables, as I have not ever played on one, just understand that they are a "budget" brand table.

Well I will not ignore the screaming monkey that was damn funny.

Entry level table for sure. You'll out grow it in no time. Get a GCI or II on Craigslist for 1K. In the long run you'll be happier. Just my opinion.
