Deluxe Standard

Perfect new set, holding up well to play and my husband loved the quality of the balls

Just what I expected, great price and excellent merchandise.

Good product, plays well. A few imperfections in the paint but to be expected for something at this price point.

I originally bought a cheaper $30 set of pool balls, and honestly, they already looked pretty decent at first glance. Out of curiosity, I decided to try this more expensive set to see if there was any real difference. After putting them side by side, the difference became very clear. The color and finish on this set are noticeably more glossy and premium-looking. More importantly, after testing them on the table, the elasticity is significantly better. The balls feel more responsive when they collide, and the rebound paths are more predictable and controllable, which makes a real difference during play. A good set of pool balls can last for years, so this is not something you replace often. In that context, the extra ~$50 is absolutely worth it. I highly recommend going straight for this set instead of the cheaper option—you really have to compare them directly to appreciate the difference.

The set is great. It is slightly smaller than the traditional set I have, but these balls are much more responsive. We struggled to screw back the cue ball and thought it was the table balance. We have no problems with screw back with this new set! The only complaint is that the black ball is not as recognizable. Several times we have almost potted the solid purple, as it is so dark it almost looks black, and the black ball from some angles is mostly white. I wish the black patterning was more consistent all the way around.

Good quality balls for our home quarter bar table. NOTE: the cue ball does not work with our bar table with ball return. We had to use our old cue ball.

This review is for the Deluxe Superior set that Japer Bees sells for around $90. There are many $30-$40 pool ball sets available and many $200-$300 (or higher) pool ball sets also. But, there do not appear to be many that are in the $80-$100 range. So, IMO, really cheap or really expensive. I wanted the middle ground since I just own a "basement" pool table that is nothing special and I'm not a pool shark. So, I purchased the Japer Bees Deluxe Superior set. The balls are beautiful and I carefully measured the diameter and weight of all 16 balls. The tolerance is exceptional. All were within 1/8th ounce in weight (right at 6 ounces) and the diameters were all extremely close to 2 1/4" (nice tight rack). So, after a few weeks of playing, indeed, I did notice a very small 1/4" long (very skinny) chip in the #2 ball. Nothing that would impact casual play. I checked all the other balls and they are still perfect. So, I contacted Japer Bees customer support and they responded with 20 minutes!!! They immediately sent me a replacement #2 ball via Priority Mail. However, when I received it, upon racking, I noticed the new #2 ball was just slightly (<1 millimeter) smaller than the other balls. Maybe it is a "batch" thing, I don't know. Anyway, I contacted Japer Bees again and showed them in a short 3 second video that the new #2 ball racked kind of loosely. Again, they responded immediately. So what is their solution? They sent me a completely new set of Superior Deluxe balls. I am not aware of any customer service like this anywhere. Yeah, it would be great to get some $80 balls that were equivalent to $300 balls but that is just not reality. So, with that said, I am very happy with this experience overall. The balls have good elasticity (they distribute nicely after a break) and I am 6'-1" and can hammer the rack with my break cue. So far, all the other balls are good. I'm sure I'll get several years of play out of this set. Thanks Japer Bees for being a good company to work with!!!

Totally happy. These balls are great. Reactive as hell. Now that said I’m only comparing them to the balls that came with my table, and the balls in the local bar. But that said these are very smooth, and ball control is head and shoulders above the others. Absolutely worth the purchase. I got a table about 2 months ago and enjoy not having to pay a bar tab or table fee to shoot a round, but the balls that came with the table where like getting yard rocks to go into the pockets. These are smooth and easy to control. Now after 2 months of sticking rocks across the table, I’ve had to adjust my striking a good bit but it makes play so much more fun. The other balls were like throwing a spot ball hoping to find the plate. Totally recommend these to anyone. In fact I will be getting another set to take with me to the local pub. Won’t regret getting these. And I’m only talking about the cheapest set here. UPDATE: While these balls are much better then the balls that came with my table, they seem to have lost quite a bit of reactiveness. I play 10-15 games a day. Doesn’t really seem like a lot to me. Cannot say I’m as happy with them as I was at first. Will contact seller but I’m not optimistic anything will come of it. I will prolly just end up upgrading to higher quality set. Update 1-6-24 Customer service contacted me. Sent me a new set. I have to say their customer service is excellent. The new set arrived and have been working really really good. I will give an upgrade to 5 stars. I think I just got a bad set the first go around. The set they replaced with is excellent. The balls react as I would expect. Very happy with this purchase, and again the customer service is above reproach. I’ve dealt with many sellers in 10 years of Amazon, and hands down this seller has the best customer service of all.
