RS#2 Foosball Table by RS Barcelona

who doesn’t love a game of (sometime violent) foosball? we know we do and as you may have guessed, as a slave to style, a classic foosball table that’s predominantly wood is not going to cut it unless you have a hillbilly pub set up in your pad but that’s beside the point. the point is, a contemporary home deserves a foosball table that matches it and as such, going with a stainless…
