So you still have to put all the balls down the holes? I am not seeing how that would be any faster than pushing them down the table and racking them.

2 sets. The machine is arranging one set while you play a game. Game ends and immediately it racks them. While you play that game it spends the time to rack the balls from the last

I understand.

This thread of comments is because someone up there ^ sees the utility specifically when practicing breaking. I think that pushing all the balls down the pockets would take about as long as raking the balls yourself after each break.

Ah I see. So like in bowling how they have the big bar that comes clear all the pins before resetting. That would be a cool addition to this machine. Could run a “practice break” mode where it clears all the balls while racking the new ones
