Hathaway Spartan 6-ft Pool Table with Table Tennis Top - Black with Red Felt
Shipping & Delivery
Overview
The Spartan is a 6-ft pool-and-table-tennis combo table designed for rooms where a 7-ft table won't fit. Pool playfield is 64 in L x 30 in W — scaled to the 6-ft cabinet dimensions. The table tennis top converts the full 72 in x 38 in cabinet to a table tennis surface. Cabinet is black MDF at 72 in L x 38 in W x 31 in H, assembled weight 129 lb. At 129 lb, this is the lightest full-function combo pool table in Hathaway's lineup.
Ships LTL in a single 172 lb carton. Assembly approximately 60 minutes; two-person recommended. Includes 2 pool cues (48 in), ball set (2-in), chalk, table brush, racking triangle, and table tennis net, posts, paddles and balls. 180-day limited warranty. Rated for ages 4 and up.
Construction
The 72 in cabinet requires approximately 188 in of room length with 58-in cue clearance — 12 in less than a 7-ft combo table. For a 14-ft room where the Maverick's 84-in cabinet leaves insufficient clearance, the Spartan fits with 16 in of wall margin at each end.
At 64 in x 30 in, the playing surface is 10 in shorter and 6.75 in narrower than the Maverick's 74.75 in x 36.75 in field. The proportionally narrower surface changes the shot geometry — specifically, break dispersal patterns are tighter and rail bank angles are steeper. Players accustomed to 7-ft tables will notice the difference; players learning on this table will develop shot geometry calibrated to this surface.
The lightweight table tennis top converts the 72 in x 38 in cabinet to a table tennis surface. Net and posts, paddles, and balls are included — no additional purchases needed to start playing either game immediately.
48-in cues are included rather than the standard 57-in. The 48-in cue requires approximately 49 in of wall clearance — 9 in less than a full-length cue — which is the practical reason compact pool tables include shorter cues.
At 129 lb, the Spartan is movable by two adults without disassembly — relevant for rooms that serve multiple functions where the table is repositioned seasonally.
The playing surface carries a poly seal coat that provides a slicker, faster ball action compared to an unsealed felt surface. The ball brushes and table brush included help maintain the surface condition between sessions.
Buyer's Guide
The Spartan (72-in cabinet) and Maverick (84-in cabinet) require very different rooms. Add 58 in of cue clearance at each end: the Spartan needs 188 in (15.7 ft); the Maverick needs 200 in (16.7 ft). In a 15-ft room (180 in), neither fits with full 57-in cue clearance — but the Spartan with 48-in cues (49 in each end) fits in 170 in, which works in a 15-ft room. If your room measures between 14 and 16 ft in length, the Spartan with 48-in cues is often the only practical full-game-plus-table-tennis option.
At $519.99, the Spartan is $180 less than the Maverick ($699.99). The price difference reflects the smaller cabinet, shorter playfield, and lighter weight. Both ship LTL freight; the Spartan ships lighter at 172 lb versus the Maverick's 346 lb. Two-person assembly is recommended for both.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this table include 48-in cues instead of 57-in?
48-in cues need approximately 49 in of wall clearance versus 58 in for 57-in cues — better suited to the smaller rooms where a 6-ft table is typically installed.
What room size is required?
With 48-in cues: minimum 170 in x 136 in (14.2 ft x 11.3 ft). With 57-in cues: minimum 188 in x 154 in (15.7 ft x 12.8 ft).
Does this ship by freight or parcel?
LTL freight — 172 lb. Requires a receiving signature and ground-level access.
Is a dining top included?
No — pool and table tennis only.
What is the warranty term?
180-day limited warranty covering defects in workmanship and materials under normal residential use.
What ball size does this use?
2-in billiard balls are included — slightly smaller than the standard 2.25-in balls used on full-size tables, sized for the 6-ft playing surface.
