Daruma · 05-09-2007, 06:29 PM

Putting a new pool table in the new office space - my PA was looking around and told me about $10 to $20k for a quality pool table... what do you guys recommmend?

As you can tell - not a pool player - but want something thats top quality..

I know I can get cheap - but I want the best that there is without dipping it in gold..

You can get a nice new regulation sized one for around $3k

Really nice 8ft will cost around $3,500 I just sold mine and I paid $3,600 originally for it. Had mother of pearl inlays etc.

Olhausen make a really nice ones in the $2-3k range.

Lots of them on eBay for a bit less:

I have seen some really nice tables in the 16k range but I have also seen 60k tables that are just insane.

you obviously didnt read my requirements - I want the highest end possible

You don't have to go higher than $10k for a quality one. If you're spending $20k on one, you'll have the cream of the crop.

Well heres the deal with pool tables...

the qaulity for strictly pool playing is aroung 3,000... thats for quality craftsmanship, good felt and a solid slate 'surface' thats all you need to spend.

if youre looking for aesthetics such as solid oak and fancy inlets like pearl or god forbid blingin dust... then youre looking more around 8 and up.... but no sense in that really... its your choice past 4k on how fancy you wantit to look or what fits the motif of your office....

CDSmith · 05-09-2007, 11:02 PM

Brunswick are the best pool tables I know of.

http://www.brunswickbilliards.com/

I have no idea what their higher-end models go for these days. My dad bought one when I was 15 (late 70's), it was around $2500 back then. It was their 2nd best model at the time.

I'm sure they go for over $10k now. Amazingly fine tables though.

Daruma · 05-09-2007, 11:05 PM

its for a very high end corporate setting - thus why I want the best - quality - looks - price is no prob... just the best impression is priority

CDSmith · 05-09-2007, 11:11 PM

Doesn't get more high-end than these...

here is a company that makes some high end stuff...

carol.prime · 05-10-2007, 02:06 PM

try to look more for the cheaper one..

KingRedOnion · 05-10-2007, 02:35 PM

$20k will get you a riley world tournament standard snooker table, so pool table should be $5k cheaper imo for absolute top spec
