When I got my Geeknson table in 2017 it came destroyed. My guess it was because Canada customs opened the crate to inspect it, however did not put it back the way they found it. The shipping company then treated it poorly on the way from customs to my house. Geeknson however was GREAT with my issue. They replaced my table at no charge and even told me to keep all the pieces that weren’t damaged (extra/backup accessories). I would buy from them again for sure. I just hope they were able to get an insurance claim on my damaged one.

If ANYONE in this industry gets a pass and doesn’t need to tell us they got something from a manufacturer and/or are/aren’t being paid, it’s you, Rodney. You’re nothing but professional on this channel and I don’t think anyone would suspect you of having biases in your videos. Plus, you’re Canadian!!! That said, really appreciate the transparency you have, especially in light of the Table Talk and Table Talk Back episodes from a year or two ago where this topic was discussed. Top notch as always. That said, this table looks fantastic. I’m waiting for my Wyrmwood Modular Gaming table and see some things with this one that I wish they’d included in their design. Still, very excited for that delivery next May!

Their next stop was then in Belgium :-O With everything you mentioned about the noise and leg-space issues of the hydraulic system it really didn't feel like a biased review.

The led light bridge looks like a Philips Hue Bridge v2. If so, it will serve for all your Hue lights, and the default setting for on or off after power interrupt is configurable. Should also work with Siri, Alexa, and Google. (Though personally I prefer the LIFX leds for my gaming table since the leds and mix and match color on the same strip at the same time instead of only having a single color at a time option as the Hue currently does. Also no bridge required, they are WiFi)

I definitely think a handcrank option would've been the better choice compared to the noisy hydraulics, especially because I feel most people will find a height they like and stick with it.

The lights are Philips hue smart lights and the white Box is the Bridge. I use them anyway for all the lights in my Apartment, so for me it’s a big plus that the table comes with hue lights but I think that if you‘re Not already into the hue system it’s overkill and I agree with you about the simple version. By the way, in the app you can change the setting for the lights how they should behave in case of a power outage. Just set them to stay Off : ) I don’t like having Electronics in my table, they are going to be obsolete a lot sooner than the table will be. And that hydraulics are just Overkill, not my Cup of tea.

Thanks for the video, I was skeptical at first but I really enjoyed it. I'm in the same opinion as yourself, I prefer the higher platform and as I'm almost as tall as you leg room is important. I have 2 kids and I could never get a proper table, so I have to use a mat with a think curtain on top which makes for an excellent gaming surface. I like the lighting and the speaker functions but this is not something I would really need as I have spot lights on the ceiling above the table. The speaker function is pretty nice but I just use a sound bar which is just as effective. If money was no object I would still probably not invest on one of these, I think I prefer the streamlinedness of the Megan or your original table. Also it's nice to know you had issues with importing, I live in Sweden and ordering anything from overseas, especially America comes with added fees and charges.

Omg, I wanted to back their latest project on Kickstarter. I honestly do not have the money for this kind of thing, though. 😅 But it's really interesting to see this "in action". The Henry would have been my table of choice. I agree that needing a bridge for lights and stuff isn't as comfortable (to me) as a remote control. But then, so many devices are created to connect with bridges only these days. 😕 It would have been interesting to know if you can connect the table to a bridge that you already have. A follow-up question would then be if the table will react to voice commands. But I guess they would have mentioned that. Well, it's possible that they're developing their app and software to upgrade to this later.

Just to ask, what the red mat that's on your Denny table supplied with it when you got in in 2017? In your video for the Denny table, you had a blue mat on it, but in this video, it has a red mat? If so, do they also offer mat options that you can get for the tables, too? I thought I ask this, since after watching the Denny table review, the mat was a different color? Also, do you still have that blue mat from the Denny table review, and if not, what happened to it since that Denny table review? Did it get worned-out, hence why the red mat is there now on the Denny table? Finally, even thought about being a salesman for GeekNSon? They would definitely make more money if you were in their videos showing the features of their tables, since you do a great job explaining the features of their tables and your thoughts on them. (Hence, it could be a good idea for the future: A table salesman.) Plus, it's nice to see where you keep your spare games that don't fit on your main self, since we don't see the room that the Henry table is on that often, as per the problems you stated for the room (noise problems, etc.)

Hey Daniel, I hope I can explain this clearly - it would be easier to show than to type :) I'll do my best! The red isn't a mat, it's a fabric wrapped around a board that then sits at the higher level (the way the leaves would). That's a custom thing I use for the sake of recording video. The blue fabric board is still there as well though, that's just the layer that covers the bottom vault section underneath. We haven't done a game play video in a while, but when we used to, we'd do it down in the vault area, and you'd see the blue fabric in that case. That way we could be recording a game play, and then leave it set up, while I covered it with the red covered board to record a tutorial on top. Hope that makes sense!

@@WatchItPlayed To understand what you're saying, the way it's laid out is, from top to bottom: red mat/part, small opening, then blue mat/part. Is that correct? If not, that what would be the correct way to explain it? Plus, you are right that pictures would popular explain this better than text, so if you want to post a reply saying "here's a picture of what I'm trying to explain on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc.," that might help better. Sorry if I'm getting confused about if I am misunderstand you, but I think what I said might be correct, considering I had to picture what you said in my mind for a second to know what you might be explaining to me.

Does yours have wonky legs like mine does though. Everything is screwed in, all good, but legs still on the wonky side for such an expensive table.
@WatchItPlayed3 жыл бұрын
Mine doesn't, and I've had 3 different sets of legs over the course of 2 tables, and I can say that all of them have been secure (the extra set was me experimenting with different table heights for the studio). Have you reached out to them about this? I'll be interested to hear what kind of support you get.

@@WatchItPlayed I've had the game a while so I didn't think they would do much more but couldn't hurt to enquire. Especially the idea of maybe getting longer legs to raise the table height. 👍

Great review. Thank you. I ordered A Denis as a result :) How much use do you get out of the lights on your table and are they of any practical use - or just a bit of a gimmick. I left them off my order but I’m beginning to have second thoughts

I could not believe it when they told me the driver is not going to be removing the tables from the truck. I ordered two tables. I have a delivery window of 9-5 tomorrow. I’m curious if I will be getting Phillips hue hubs. Doubting they threw those in.
