Hathaway Spartan 6-ft Pool Table with Table Tennis Top

The table measures 72 in long × 38 in wide × 31 in tall (approximately 183 cm × 97 cm × 79 cm). The playfield itself is 64 in × 30 in. When the table tennis top is in place, it covers the full 72 in × 38 in exterior of the table.

You need enough clear space on all sides to swing a pool cue comfortably. A standard 48-in or 52-in cue requires at least 4–5 ft of clearance on each side and each end of the table. The Spartan's 72 in × 38 in footprint fits best in a room with at least 10 ft × 13 ft of usable open space — though the exact fit depends on your cue length and room layout. Measure your room before ordering to confirm.

Yes. Hathaway specifies this product is for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor humidity, temperature swings, and moisture can damage the engineered wood construction, warp the playfield, and degrade the felt. Keep it in a temperature-controlled indoor space for best performance and longevity.

The table tennis top is a lightweight, single-piece panel that sits directly on top of the pool table. It covers the full 72 in × 38 in surface. The support board (included) is placed under the top for stability. The top lifts on and off easily — no permanent hardware — so you can switch between billiards and table tennis without tools and store the top when not in use.

Yes. When the table tennis top is installed on the pool table, it sits over the felt surface and protects it from dust, scratches, and impact during ping pong play. The felt is only exposed when you remove the top to play billiards.

Everything you need for both games is in the box. For pool, you get two 2-piece pool cues, a full billiard ball set (16 balls), a racking triangle, cue chalk, and a rail brush. For table tennis, you get the conversion top, net and posts, two paddles, and two balls. No additional purchases are required to start playing either game on day one.

Hathaway rates assembly at approximately 60 minutes. You'll need a Phillips-head screwdriver; a level is also recommended to ensure the table is set up flat. Hathaway advises that two adults work together — one person can manage the process, but the table body is heavy and some steps are much easier with a second set of hands.

Yes. The Spartan includes four 3.5-in ABS leg levelers that adjust independently to compensate for minor floor irregularities. Using a level during assembly to dial in each corner is the recommended approach — a properly leveled table ensures the cue ball rolls straight and games play fairly.

The Spartan is covered by Hathaway's 180-day limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship from the date of original retail purchase. The warranty is nontransferable and covers residential use only; institutional or commercial use voids it. To make a claim, contact the retailer where you purchased the table and have your proof of purchase, model number (BG50310), and relevant part numbers ready. Shipping costs for warranty service are the buyer's responsibility. You can also reach Hathaway's warranty team directly at warranty@bluewaveproducts.com or (800) 759-0977.

Hathaway notes a choking hazard warning on this product — the billiard balls and small accessories are not suitable for children under 3 years old. For older children, the table is designed for family play. Adults should supervise younger kids and store small accessories (chalk, balls) out of reach when not in use. Do not allow children to sit, climb, or lean on the table.

The Spartan does not have wheels or casters. Hathaway advises against dragging the table to move it, as this can damage the legs. To reposition, lift the table — with at least two people — rather than dragging or sliding it across the floor.

Brush the felt regularly with the included rail brush, always brushing in one direction (from head spot toward the foot). Keep food and drinks off the playing surface. When the table tennis top is not in use, consider leaving it in place to protect the felt from dust. Avoid placing the table in direct sunlight, which can fade the cloth over time. Hathaway's warranty does not cover scratching or damage resulting from normal usage.

A 6-ft table has a shorter playfield (64 in × 30 in on the Spartan) compared to a 7-ft table's typical 76–78 in playfield. The shorter length means slightly less room for position play and long-distance shots, but the game mechanics, pocket sizes, and general strategy are the same. For casual family play and skill development, the 6-ft delivers a satisfying billiards experience. If you have the room for a 7-ft table and want a larger playing surface, the Hathaway Maverick II 7-ft is worth comparing. The Spartan's key advantage is fitting rooms where a larger table simply won't.

Yes. The inlayed sights on the 4-in rails are a genuine training aid — they give new players the visual reference points to understand banking angles and cue ball positioning. The compact playfield also means fewer steps between shots, which keeps beginners engaged rather than walking the table on every turn. The included accessories mean there's nothing additional to buy to start practicing.
