Olhausen - replace cushions to help with rattle?

I'm likely moving and getting new cloth for an Olhausen table. I'm curious it going with a different cushion (artimis?) would reduce pocket rattle.

Is it worth it? I'm still kicking around getting a Connelly new, but if the Olhausen comes with me it will be in place for 10+ years.

I'd also appreciate knowing what exactly I should order, and if there would be anything additional an installer would need to do (thus increasing my install price).

**Not a mechanic**

Sounds more like an issue with the way the rails are bolted to the table as opposed to bad cushions.

How to stop RATTLE ON ANY TABLE: Aim for center pocket!!! LOL.

It is a known design flaw. Sell the table and skip the Connelly. If you want a table that will play awesome go with a Gold Crown or a Diamond. I call it getting what you REALLY want: A commercial table that plays awesome. Yes it is some money to buy either new or it is less money and a good mechanic for either used. TAKE THE LEAP< MAKE THE COMMITMENT! :)

My $0.02 :thumbup:

Thanks for the replies. So would an experienced setup guy be able to install new facings?

GC and Diamond aren't options, unfortunately. I love the diamond, but a single piece slate isn't able to turn the corner at the bottom of my stairs. Connelly seemed like a pretty compromise, but I'm open to other suggestions.

Diamond also has a 3 piece slate available for every table they sell, so that means ANY Diamond can be installed anywhere any other table can be installed as well!!

No kidding.... that changes everything!

Is the msrp what I could really expect to pay, or are there better prices available?
