Hurricane by Tornado
« on: December 11, 2025, 08:56:01 AM »
I've searched the site and there's not much on the Hurricane by Tornado table (https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1265776311439509/?rdid=LVzu6HKjz0K7MEjX&share_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fshare%2F1ByBfcEKA9%2F#). I know it's an older Tornado and not top of the Tornado line but I have the ability to buy for $200. The other option is a much newer Fat Cat table for $100 (https://www.facebook.com/share/1AUmBe7Fwd/). I'd have to drive two hours for the Hurricane vs 25 minutes for the Fat Cat. Given that this is only for home use with very competitive older teens/adults are there any strong feelings either way here?

Thanks!

For competitive home play, the Tornado Hurricane is still the better choice even though it’s older. Tornado tables have much better build quality, playfield, and rod feel compared to Fat Cat, which tends to be lighter and less consistent. If the Hurricane is in decent condition, $200 is a fair price and it’ll hold up much better for serious players — the extra drive is probably worth it.
