Question: Anyone work for Brunswick? Table Q.

[td873]

I am in the market for a table, but am not sure if I should get a GC or a Brunswick "home" table. In fact, I haven't been able to compare the differences between the Gold Crown and their home line in detail using web resources.

My basic questions are: Is there a home table that is comparable to the GC without the GC pricetag? If so, what am I compromising on by getting the home table?

Also, if anyone has been through this process recently, I would appreciate any wisdom you can pass on.

Thanks,

The only thing the Gold Crown shares with its home models are the slate and cushions.The frame is much stronger for commercial use.Are you looking for a commercail table or a furniture style table.

Nothing else in Brunswicks line compares to the gold crown. The frame has 5 times the material, it has slate levelers, and quick set leg levelers. The rails are thicker. In my opinion, none of the other tables play as well either. The other tables from brunswick in that price range are priced as such because they are furniture style tables and not the same quality of build. Not that they are bad tables, just not built like the gold crown. feel free to ask me any other questions that you have.

Hope this helps.

Centennial, Anniversary, or Gold Crown

NineBallNut,
In your opinion which is the better table, Centennial, Anniversary, or Gold Crown? I can't tell from pictures if the Centennial or Anniversary have a support between the two "legs" at either end. Please pardon my lack of expertise in the use of terminology.

I think the GC may be the best of the three given the structure of the base.

Your thoughts?

My Anniversary has a support between the two legs although, according to the Brunswick web site, this isn't the case with all Anniversary tables. Mine is, as best I can tell, from the early '50s and it's built like a tank, every bit as stout as the GCs in my local room. And the slate is thicker.

Just my .02
