Choosing a luxury pool table is an exciting endeavour that combines the elegance of fine craftsmanship with the thrill of competitive play. As you embark on your journey to find the perfect addition to your game room, there are a number of key things to consider to ensure you’re making the right decisions for you. Here’s a comprehensive guide on what to look for when choosing a luxury pool table.
The foundation of any luxury pool table is the quality of materials used in its construction. By utilising solid hardwoods and strong, durable slate beds, we can ensure that our luxury pool tables are crafted from the finest materials available to us. We carefully select our resources for quality, ultimately providing longevity and a smooth and level playing experience.
Exquisite craftsmanship is a hallmark of luxury pool tables. It can manifest in everything from the details in the woodwork, including the finish and carvings, to the overall finish and longevity of the table. Handcrafted tables often showcase superior joinery and designs that mass-produced tables can’t match. You can visit our showroom or request more information to get an in-depth look at the craftsmanship that goes into each of our tables.
One of the main attractions of luxury pool tables is the ability to customise them to suit your preferences. We offer a wide range of customisation options, including different wood finishes, felt colours, pocket styles, and leg designs. Thesecan add a unique touch that reflects your style and personality.
Luxury pool tables come in various sizes, typically ranging from 7 to 9 feet in length depending on your needs. It’s important to consider the dimensions of your game room or chosen space to ensure there’s ample space for the table and comfortable cueing - our handy room size guide can help you decide. As a rule of thumb, you should have at least five feet of clearance around the table. Accurate measurements of your space will help you choose the appropriate table size.
The playing surface you choose is crucial for an authentic and enjoyable game experience. Slate beds often provide a smoother, more reliable gameplay as this material provides the best stability and consistency. High-quality felt also works to ensure smooth ball roll and durability. If you’re looking for something easier to move around the home, our timber bed pool tables also offer a high-quality play experience with durable materials and quality finish.
The cushions, attached to the rails, significantly affect the table’s playability. High-quality luxury tables use high-quality rubber for cushions, which provides a consistent and lively bounce. We install every cushion ourselves, ensuring that they are not only installed precisely but that each cushion is the best quality and in the best condition.
A luxury pool table should be a centrepiece that complements your home's decor. It’s important to consider the table’s design and how it integrates with your interior style - Whether you prefer a classic, antique look or a sleek, modern design, the table should enhance the visual appeal of your game room. Our luxury pool tables are bespoke, and therefore customisable to your exact specifications.
