Looking to order a 7’ pool table soon and have been looking at these: https://www.homeleisuredirect.com/pool_tables/engl...

Anyone got any better suggestions?

Don’t want to spend a small fortune on anything more than a basic table, so not interested in any that double up as a dining table or bespoke design.

Sadly the reconditioned market seems to have dried up, presumably due to all the staycations and sheds being built this year.

Would have been happy with a recon pub table TBF, but I can’t find one for love nor money.

Not sure where your based but worth trying the number on the table in the pic - fellas name is John. I paid about £800 for fully reconditioned, reclothed, 2 x cues, chalk, balls, cover, delivered and installed

I have a legacy 8x4 pool table which is insanely heavy. What I do know is that the set up of the table is key. Getting it perfectly flat and the cushions operating well makes a massive difference

Think the one I looked at was 200Kg for the 7’ table. Did consider second-hand but I think the hassle of picking it up and installing it perfectly at home outweighs any savings.

Any go-to suppliers or are they all much of a muchness for the basic slate bed tables?

I cannot help with UK supplier as I bought mine when living in the US. I just know that setting it up well makes all the difference to it being something which gets lots of use vs very little
