Any room owners ever use it? Thinking of giving it a try, but can't seem to find any real world experience in a commercial environment. According to muellers it's as good or better than 860 and it's $50+ cheaper per bed. Of course they are going to push what they carry though. Any thoughts? Thanks!

I played on it once a while ago, its definitely fast from what I remember. It was good. Similar to Simonis. Seemed like it was slicker maybe. Its good cloth so I wouldn't worry about being disappointed.
 
excellent cloth

fast and true, but it is a little slicker so it tends to be a little harder to jump balls, but it doesn't lint up really at all. Personally I like it better than simonis. I think over all you'll be pleased with it.
 
I owned a supply store and order some for my Diamond it is faster then simonis and didn't last as long had to change it after 4 mo it got played on a lot but simonis would last me 6 to 8 mo the older it got the faster it got and I didn't think it played true it would grab more english of the rials so much sometimes that the ball would curve didn't like it at all I've tried almost every cloth to find a cheaper one then simonis and so far I have come to find that if it is cheaper its probably not worth getting but it sells so some people must like it I say if your going to put it in a pool room just try it on one table and see what kind of feedback you get from your customers they may not know the difference there is a cloth that olhausen sells called hainsworth it is teflon coated it plays as true as simonis but is a little bit slower but if you keep the humidity down in your room it will play a little faster there are some new cloths out there but don't know much about them I wish they would come out with something as good cause simonis keeps going up if you don't do it already you might want to think about calling simonis directly if you have a business you might be able to get a dealership set up with them and buy it by the bolt its a little bit cheaper if your buying it at wholesale and a lot cheaper if your buying it retail
 
Just go with Simonis 860 Hr..Tournament Blue

Simonis is the industry leader hands down and basically, everyone is trying to catch them, to no avail. I have been in many rooms where the owner switched to another brand, ie. Championship, Gorina, etc.. and the results were horrible. All of them switched back as soon as they could. Saving a few dollars on cloth is not the way to go.

You are opening a pool room so the best equipment is what you want. It will last longer and play better doing it. If cheaper was a valid argument, why don't rooms go out and buy Sears tables??

OMG... punctuation anyone??

You have some good points but they are really hard to read as one, giant run-on sentence... :)
