Buying a pool table: what to look for
Congrats! Making the decision to purchase your very own pool table was a great move. When purchasing a home, what should you pay attention to? There are pool tables, pool table s, and more pool tables! A quality pool table is an investment that will improve your game. The following list will assist you in considering various aspects of a table before you purchase your own.

Most Known Table Manufacturers

Brunswick
With Brunswick pool tables, you can choose from Economy Models to Custom Models. The company has adapted easily over the past 170 years in the business, and is why they remain successful in the industry.

It gets better! The tables are easy to knock down, which will be useful for tournaments or if you need to move the table one day.

Olhausen
They offer a lifetime warranty on their tables that are 100% made in the USA.

The best part? The cushions are Accu-Fast, the best cushions you can buy, made of 100% pure gum rubber, making the Olhausen pool table higher quality and more durable.

Diamond Billiards
With Diamond Billiards, you get three major positives: their tables are made in the USA, they use solid hardwood, and their cloth is Simonis.

In addition to that, they also have a no excuse program that allows you to pay for Diamond pool tables on a monthly basis instead of paying them up front!

Legacy Billiards
As a last point, Legacy is a manufacturer of pool tables that creates a product with fewer pieces, which simplifies assembly. Each one is made of solid hardwood, and has a lifetime warranty.

That's crazy: they use environmentally friendly methods for making their tables.

Slate vs. MDF

Slate
Professional billiards are only played on slate surfaces. Standard slate comes in one piece and the slate can be broken up into up to three pieces for a cheaper price. It is glued to the slate in order to maintain a consistent playing surface.

There's no need to worry about the slate deteriorating over time, since it isn't affected by humidity. There is no better option in terms of durability and consistency.

MDF Pool Table Bed
In terms of price and quality, MDF pool table beds provide the most value. Humidity can cause this table bed to warp over time.

The problem gets worse: With this option, your table is not always level when you're playing, which means your ball may move.

Ball Return vs. Ball Pockets

Ball Return
Usually this option is used in coin operated pool halls and bars (commercial locations).

Type of Table

Veneer
The table has a thin layer of hardwood (1/8") layered with a less expensive wood or particle board underneath.

Solid Hardwood
Solid hardwood is the best table type since it is solid wood and therefore more durable.

Felt

Woolen Cloth
Wool is thick and heavy with a content of 60%+. The cloth you are most familiar with is usually found on coin operated tables and in homes. Although it costs far less than worsted wool, the balls roll slower on this cloth and the felt will pill.

Worsted Wool
It is made of worsted cloth (aka speed cloth) and does not pill. Considering its top quality and consistent surface, it is the best cloth on the market. Moreover, they offer spill-resistant cloth! The cloth will be found on tables where professional tournaments are held and on tables of serious pool players.

Maybe you're wondering: What about the top cushions?


The best results can be obtained by choosing Natural Gum Rubber of 65% or higher. There are no better cushioning options as Accu-Fast cushions from Olhausen pool tables. Solid wood cushions are the best and long-lasting, and they come in other materials, too, but solid wood is the best and most durable.

Warranty
A warranty cannot be attached to a used table if it has not been purchased from the manufacturer separately. A warranty is a good thing to ask if you are purchasing a new table.
