The components the make up a billiard table should make up a large part of the considerations you make when shopping for a billiard pool table.
Legs of a billiard table, whether they're post legs which are floor to slate, tapered leg or carved legs which have no bearing on the quality of the table as they are strictly for aesthetics and looks.
It's up to the eye and preference of the purchaser as to which style they may like. Other components of the table such as the corners and the cabinetry being solid wood are important because that lends more value to the product. The hardware that's used, the rails and cushions, as well as the slate really promote better playability.
With high quality components, your table will play better now and for as long as you own it. For more information on billiard table leg options, check our our video buyer's guide...
