Perhaps it was because purple was not a color of pool table felt that I had every seen before, and it certainly gave the pool table a whole new look. About a year later I found some with red felt, and thought these looked neat as well. If you have a table in your home, or you have a spot where you like to go play, you probably know how important it is to take care of the pool table felt. If there is one thing I remember about playing pool when I was younger was someone saying, “Don’t scratch or rip the pool table felt. It is very expensive to replace.” I know that felt is not expensive, so I can imagine it is either specially made felt, or perhaps the installation is very expensive. Either way, you definitely don’t want to rip the felt.

When buying a table, you can probably choose the color of pool table felt that you want to have in your home. You may only be able to get one color on cheaper models, but if you go for an expensive table, you may have your choice of quite a few colors. If you buy used, one of the most important things you should look at would be the pool table felt. You don’t want to get something that is worn down to nothing, because this means you will be spending a good amount of cash to get it replaced soon. That may eat up any money you just saved by buying a used model.
