Trying to fulfill a lifelong dream of having a table at home.
Balancing wife's requirements and my own!
Has anybody ever played on this "Chamberlain" table?
I can't find any information on it. Thanks!!

I have not played on that table but my guess is that it probably plays very similar to a cheap table. Looks like bolted (not pinned) guys which create dead tic tacks, probably solid 5/8" rods which are heavy/slow (compared to Tornado, Warrior). The table would probably be fine for most people and provide tons of fun but it will not replicate a competition/billiards/tavern level table (which you might not be looking for anyway).
I like the looks of the table tho.
Here are a couple higher preforming tables with better aesthetics, all of which cost much more:

Please don't spend $1k on that table. It will not play well and you can get a much much better table such as a new base model Tornado, a used high end Tornado, a Warrior, a Fireball, etc for the same price. Seriously, after about a month you will not play on that table because it will not play well.

Firewood here is less than $100 per rick. Look for a used Tornado. Even a 40 year old Tornado would be better if it's in good shape, and half the price.

Well, you can go to bed tonight knowing you changed the world today for the better.
The Warrior has been ordered and is on the way. :)
Thanks, all!!

I looks like you may be in Central TN (based in that seller’s location). There is a good player base in TN, AL, KY and GA. Keep an eye on Craigslist - you may be able to get a used Tornado for */- $500. Better than a used one new off brand table. There may be DYP tournaments in your area (still could be a couple hour drive). It’s worth looking one up, even if you just watch (watch is all you want to do). Everyone was new once - you
May get some valuable assistance and maybe meet up with peeps from your area.
