If you own it, what's your impression of the Thwack Game Table?

Question

I'm considering ordering the Thwack game table for my college-aged son.  If you own it, what's your impression?  Durable?  Good Quality?  Fun?  Or not?

For better or worse, he seems to have picked up my lack of interest in alcohol.

I think my aversion to it came from growing up in a family dominated by a man addicted to alcohol, one who became violent when inebriated--which was too frequent.

If that wasn't sufficient incentive to avoid the stuff, I later learned a genetic tendency toward alcoholism can be passed down from parent to offspring.  I was potentially vulnerable, and am a possible "carrier."

Consequently, I took my last drink of alcohol on New Year's Eve, 1980.

My son's watched friends and family drive themselves into ruin through substance abuse; it appears he, too, has no need for alcohol to have fun.

Subsequently, beer holders are not a missing component (in my personal view).

I don't condemn others who enjoy an occasional brew.  My wife enjoys a half can every few weeks or months.  And playing in bands, as I do, I'm surrounded by folks who consume responsibly and rely on designated drivers.
