CPBACompetition Worsted Professional Pool Table Cloth – Fast Speed High Accuracy Pre-Cut Bed and Rails

Some people say it plays fast but I like fast. It takes more skill when it’s a game of touch in my opinion.

Really happy with the final look of this product. In comparison to other cloths that are worsted this is an exceptional buy plays fast and appears durable. Only complaints if any are it's tricky to install but I'm not a professional either it's tough to stretch especially at side pockets so be cautious when cutting try to leave extra then cut off excess later. Also perhaps it was just my particular cue it has a black custom tip on it and was miss cued so it marked the table and unfortunately didn't wipe off without leaving a faint mark on the table also couple that with blue chalk so it left a dark mark. By the way felt is burgundy color so I feel like this was something that I could have prevented, I would highly recommend getting chalk that matches color of your felt which I did and tabe cleans up ten times better so lesson learned. Overall I would highly recommend this felt great for the price.

Just finished install and it's a great improvement over the old cloth. Had a problem and ripped one of the rail clothes accidently and seller quickly provided a replacement. I recommend both the material and the seller as top notch.

This felt does play fast similar to Simonis, but the fabric out of the box had many loose threads which both fell out of the packaging when opened and continued during installation. The lines I cut with my sharp knife also had hangers afterwards, so not sure if this fabric has a weak thatch or the factory cutter (and mine) were just too dull. I did get it installed just fine though with no remaining tears or rips. There isn't a ton of stretch on this fabric for installation (and there shouldn't be for high speed worsted), so be mindful of your stapling pattern during install as correcting wrinkles will be more difficult than slower, more stretchy cloth. The cloth does not seem to be wearing that well as there are lots of burn marks after just a few weeks of play (i tried to capture in the pic). That said, I do have a darker color (Burgundy) which reveals just about everything from burns to dirt more easily. We also use the table a lot. In summary, I like the way it is playing (quick and true) so far, but have concerns about durability due to loose threads and lots of spots after about 100 games. If you want to try a fast, worsted cloth on a budget, this is not a bad choice, but if you have the dough, go with Simonis.UPDATE: Upgrading my rating to 4 stars. After 2 years of considerable play, the felt is actually holding up well. The initial burn marks, now, seem to have blended in with the rest and are barely noticeable. Still rolls fast and true. Only issue was the shedding and lack of stretch on install. The lack of stretch is starting to show a little on the rails, however, overall, this is a great playing felt for half the cost of Simonis.

Lovely blue felt. Great product and fast shipping.

I only just put this cloth on my table, but it is pretty fast. Not the fastest I’ve ever played, but still fast. Great for 9 ball. I get incredible cue ball control on this cloth. It seems pretty durable too. Make sure you use a fresh razor to cut it. Also, I messed up a rail. I contacted the company to buy some cloth and they sent me a rail cloth for free. That was pretty awesome, especially since I’m the one who messed it up.Edit 6 months later — this cloth is still holding up fantastic. I honestly will not buy any other brand of cloth. This stuff is as good as Simonis.

This cloth looks great, and plays great on the two tables I've used it on.

I picked this up after seeing a few forum conversations regarding it as a lower priced equivalent to the Simonis 860 / 860HR. Instead of paying the Simonis tax I figured I'd give this a shot and spend the difference on some nice Aramith balls.I've installed cloth a few times, including some standard run of the mill felt and Simonis 860. This installs just like any other worsted cloth, it likes to fray and can be a bit tough to stretch but once you get there it's worth the effort.The cut sizes were generous enough that it draped off the slate before stretching by a few inches on each side for an 8' table, which helped make install a lot easier than it could have been.As for how it plays and feels, I'd put it up there with Simonis 860 or 860 HR just on speed and feel. If you're looking for something worsted like that and like the speed, this is a good way to get there for the money. If you just want cloth for a table and don't save a bit and just buy Championship Saturn II.
