I know this for English tables. I am putting my deposit in on Monday for a 9ft diamond pro am. I am pumped lads.

[@HomeLeisureDirect]

Thats awesome news! They are amazing tables. 👍🏼

[@loyallfc7239]

[@HomeLeisureDirect]

Magic! What colour are you hoping to go for?

[@loyallfc7239]

@@HomeLeisureDirect the grey cloth with rustic black finish! I phoned up yesterday and understand there are stock issues? Is the supreme winner the only state bed with stock coming in soon?

Could you please direct me to a video or picture of the Standard Blue Cloth used on the Signature Oxford Pool Dining Table?
The swatches shown on the webpage look faded, thanks

[@HomeLeisureDirect]

If you're trying to best decide, then we can send out the actual cloth swatches to you. Just get in touch with sales via email or phone and they'll be able to send you out the samples you need. Hope this helps!

[@matthewbrayson8897]

which cloth is used on the table with all the samples on?

[@HomeLeisureDirect]

It uses Simonis 860 in Tournament Blue. :)

Is the Smart Cloth still directional? and can I still iron it?

[@HomeLeisureDirect]

Hi there. Smart Cloth is directional and can be ironed. :)

What's your views on Strachan 777 on a top of the range mdf

[@HomeLeisureDirect]

Not too sure admittedly. Given that every MDF table we have experience with comes with the top-rail and the playing surface pre-built. It's probably possible if you're dedicated enough to dismantle the whole table though!

[@shaneholmes6977]

@@HomeLeisureDirect thanks. But it's it with the upgrade do you think or 6811

[@michaelyeung8984]

Disappointing that the pool table I ordered in January is now scheduled to take until August for delivery - and that’s if the date is not pushed back further! Have also not been offered any comparable alternative

[@HomeLeisureDirect]

Thanks for your comment Michael. All manufacturers are stacked at the moment, with huge delays on parts and raw materials caused by covid and the global shipping issues. We're really sorry your order has been delayed so much. If you can speak to our service team during a weekday they can investigate if there are any alternatives that would suit you. We have web page showing all the pool tables that we physically have in stock in our warehouse right now, you never know one of these may suit you: www.homeleisuredirect.com/pool_tables/pool-tables-in-stock/

What would you say is the best cloth. I’m getting 6811 strachan but now thinking to get match cloth

[@kierankelly7918]

Hi mate I want to a order a decent cloth for my table would you recommend 6811 or super pro speed cloth ? I want something that would be similar in local pool tournaments.

[@HomeLeisureDirect]

Depends on if you're aiming to play English or American pool. 6811 would be a great choice for English Pool and vice versa for American Pool and Strachan SuperPro :)
