All,
I am in the market for a table, knowing very little. My wife insists we buy new because of a previous bad experience with used. I spoke to the local store and he recommend the Olhausen Belmont/Americana which he has for $2K. He says that I wouldn't really notice the difference if I bought a higher end table, since I'm no pro, and that the Belmont is a very good table: all hard woods, etc. I couldn't find much more info, so can someone provide some thoughts: is this a good table? Is this a good buy? Is there a reason I would want a better table? Would a higher end table play better or last longer?
Also, he recommended that I get a cloth upgrade and the better playset (balls, cues etc.) as the standard package isn't great. Is that true?
Thanks for the advice!!
