Shuffleboard Review: The Surprisingly Simple Austin
Posted by Tyler Leach, Director of Marketing on Jun 30th 2025
In today's review, we're diving deep into the Austin Shuffleboard by California House. This isn't just a shuffleboard; it's a testament to unparalleled quality, bespoke design, and effortless integration into any sophisticated space.
Build Quality: The Highest Standard (10/10)
The Austin Shuffleboard sets the benchmark for build quality and materials, earning the highest possible rating: a perfect 10 out of 10. California House prides itself on using only the finest materials available on the market, including options for solid maple, oak, or walnut wood. What truly sets it apart are the customizable details, such as genuine leather collars and a selection of premium fabrics for the gutters. Every component is meticulously crafted and made to order, reflecting a commitment to the highest quality.
Aesthetics & Features: Fully Customizable Masterpiece (9/10)
In terms of aesthetics and features, the Austin Shuffleboard is a design chameleon, scoring an impressive 9 out of 10. Its fully customizable nature allows it to seamlessly integrate into any room aesthetic, with endless possibilities for finishes and fabrics. California House even offers custom stain matching to perfectly complement existing decor. This particular 16ft model features a two-piece playing surface (ideal for tricky installations like stairwells), a custom finish, elegant black collars, and complementary khaki gutters, all designed to fit the mountain home setting perfectly.
Ease of Assembly: Surprisingly Simple for its Scale (8/10)
While shuffleboards are typically larger and more challenging to assemble than pool tables, the Austin 16ft Shuffleboard excels in ease of assembly, earning an 8 out of 10. This remarkable score is largely due to California House's meticulous pre-assembly. The cabinets arrive half-assembled, and connecting the three pieces (for a 16ft model) is straightforward using clearly marked brackets. All four legs bolt on with just two bolts per side, and even the bolts come pre-separated with washers in place, a testament to their attention to detail. Our installers consistently rate this as the easiest shuffleboard to set up, highlighting the inherent quality of its build.
