Family Leisure is a superstore for the finest billiards tables in the world. When we start discussing crossbeams and rubber stoppers and K-66 cushions and drop pockets, it makes some shoppers heads spin. They don’t know whether they prefer a ball-and-claw leg or a tapered leg, and we understand. Not everybody speaks the language of billiards! You’ll need to decide about slate thickness, wood finish, sight style and more. Let Family Leisure communicate everything we know about pool tables before you look for the perfect fit.
