What should I look for when buying a billiard table?
The following is a list of features you should look for when purchasing your billiard or pool table
Lifetime Warranty (See Legacy’s Lifetime Warranty)
True interlocking, laminated, cross-ply support beams – not just pieces of wood joined by hardware (See our interactive construction display).
Little or no use of metal hardware; all wood corner support systems are preferable since this type of construction does not loosen over time; be sure to lean on the table to make sure you don’t feel racking or shifting (Every Legacy table has an all wood corner support system).
Keep in mind that veneer and wood is more durable than laminate. (Legacy does not use laminates on any table).
K-66 cushion rubber is the only cushion rubber sanctioned by the BCA (Billiard Congress of America).
Roll a ball on the table to gauge quietness of play and consistency of speed & rebound action.
Minimum ¾”, 3-pc genuine slate – though if your budget allows, 1”, 3-pc genuine slate is preferable.
What are the differences between your Classic, Elite, Sterling, and Signature billiard tables?
Certain features are specific to each series:
Classic Series: hardwood top rails, legs, and blinds; ¾” mdf cabinet with oak or maple veneer; standard top rails with round acrylic sites; durahyde pockets; backed, 1 ”, 3-pc diamond-honed, genuine slate; single center beam support.

What kind of cloth do I need on my billiard table?
A minimum of 21 oz, wool blend billiard cloth will provide the best playing results.
