We just purchased the Minnesota Fats Billiard table for our family for a holiday gift this year. While it seemed a rather expensive purchase, in the end it worked out great for us because I got it on sale and the money was worthwhile spent as we knew the hours of enjoyment it would bring to us, our kids and the kids friends would be more than worth it.
While the website gives you the official 'stats' I can give you more a personal view of it. The dark colored wood is beautiful and the claw feet are ornate but not too fussy. We have it in a basement family room and it does not look too 'fancy' with the claw feet at all!
We really LOVED the beige colored fabric top verses the traditional green. I fully admit that it's really the beige color that sold me on this pool table. It blends into the decor of the basement and from a 'womans' point of view that was important. LOL.
My kids and husband use it about twice a week and although I've seen a little bit of 'pilling' (?) in the fabric it's not bad and can be picked right off. I suspect with a few more months of play it will be worn sufficiently to be completely smooth.
My husband and brother put it together in one evening after the kids were asleep and only had a couple moments of frustration when the directions do tell you to assemble the wooden portion first and then put the screws in and tighten, when in fact, when you do it in that order you can't reach the screw to tighten it and have to take it apart and tighten the screw THEN put the cross piece of wood in place. My only advice is to read directions, then picture it in your head and if it doesn't make sense, use common sense first. *wink*
Overall - sturdy and sound it's not cheaply made, it's camel color is beautiful and the hours of enjoyment it brings is worth every cent.
