Great American Pool Tables
About the Company
Great American Recreation Equipment Inc. produces some of the most popular bar quality pool tables today. All of their tables are completely American made, which is atypical in an industry that outsources most of its production overseas. They have been in business since 1990, and offer tables that are coin operated, but can provide tables that aren’t coin operated.
Price Range
Because Great American Pool tables are built for continuous, heavy use they are price anywhere from $2800 all the way up to $5000. While that’s a bit more than your typical home table, what you are getting for the extra cost is superior performance and legendary durability.
What’s Good About Them
If what you are primarily concerned about is durability, and the ability of your table to maintain a very high level of play through continuous use, Great American is one of your best choices. These tables are built to be used in bars, arcades, pool halls, and other places that get a ton of use out of billiard tables.
What’s Bad About Them
If you are looking for a really classic or antique design, then you probably should look elsewhere. Because these are mostly meant for commercial use, all of them have a “cabinet” design, which means that they don’t have the fancy wood stains or wood carved legs that you find on fancier pool tables.
Notable Models
Looking for a classic pool table that is beloved by pool hall owners across the country? Then the Great American 8 foot Pool Table is going to be your best bet. It’s one of Great American’s most affordable models, but it still looks great and comes with Great American’s legendary solid construction.
If you want a truly unique billiards experience, then you just can’t go wrong with the Great American Neon Pool table. The hot colors and flashy design are a great addition if you want a game room that has a lot of fun and flair.
