Spikeball Mini - Tabletop Roundnet Indoor Outdoor Game

Our initial order actually came with missing parts (the center piece and the ball were missing), so we had to reach out to the customer service, who informed that I actually needed to go through Amazon to get the replacement. The response was very quick (within a single business day), so I was very happy about that. It was easy enough to go through the site to order the replacement (though I do have to return the original item, which is a bit of a pain), and it came fairly quickly (within 2 business days).The replacement item looks great - the installation requires some force to get all the tabs in (more so than other similar installations that I have done), but one they are in, it is very solid. I loved the fact that it came with the air pump as well - the ball comes without air, so you can use the included pump (which is actually pretty solid) to put air in it. The playing surface looks great - the ball bounces off of it very well - I plan on using this more once spring comes around outside using a small-ish outdoor table that will fit the playing surface on the tabletop.

I love the regular Spikeball game; it’s a staple of ours every summer (especially when we go to the beach) and we always have a lot of fun with it. I got really excited when I saw this mini version advertised that it could be played indoors. Spikeball that can be enjoyed year round - what’s not to love?Unfortunately, the game’s not as fun as the full sized version. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a good time, it’s just a little harder to play since it’s smaller. Also, even though it claims to be playable indoors, it’s really not. Spikeball is a game that’s pretty physical and requires a lot of movement, and the ball can move unpredictably and erratically depending on the players. Both kids and adults have a tendency to hit the ball pretty hard, and my wife and I had to take it outside pretty fast before something got broken. I’d really only recommend playing this indoors if you have a big, open area (like a basement with a lot of floor space).Overall, it’s good, just not as great as I hoped it would be. It’s still a lot of fun and I’d recommend it to people that really like playing Spikeball (like myself), but it doesn’t beat the original experience.

I ordered the Tabletop Spikeball Kit. The first kit didn't haven't the center part of the board or a pump. When I requested a refund, a new box came it included all of the other pieces but it didn't include a ball or a pump.

It was a birthday present and he loved it

This is an interesting take on the original Spikeball. The bounce is different because it isn’t a net and takes some getting used to. Typically a competitive game of Spikeball requires wide movement around the net and sometimes even going over the net, but the concept of this version doesn’t really allow for it since it’s indoor and tabletop. Indoor use is also difficult because you still need an open area and you want to be careful of breaking anything fragile.The components themselves are as expected, well made, and up to par with the quality of the originals. It’s significantly cheaper than the original version, but I would stick with the original if you are looking for a great Spikeball experience. If you can only play indoors, then this one could work, but there are obvious limitations to indoor sports. You might even be better off adding non-slip stickers to the bottom of the original version if you want to play indoors.
