Every table here is available at or around 6ft, a common size for UK homes where space is tight. There are 25 to choose from, from 8 brands, in English and American styles, with 6ft prices from £1,449 to £6,200. Almost all have a slate bed.
An English and an American 6ft table aren't the same size, so check which game you play first. Use the filters to narrow by game, price and brand, or go back to all Pool Tables.

Not for most homes. A 6ft table is a common choice for UK games rooms, garages and garden rooms, and it plays well for family and social games. The main reason to choose one is space: a 6ft table that you can cue around properly plays better than a 7ft table squeezed into a room that's too small for it.
The trade-off is for league and regular players. Most UK pubs and leagues use 7ft tables, and a 6ft table feels more crowded, so if you're practising for league matches, a 7ft pool table is the better fit if your room allows it.
Most of our 6ft tables are also available as 7ft, so you can pick the size once you've measured. SAM's figures show a 6ft English table needs about a foot less in length and 6in less in width than a 7ft with the same cue.
You need room to draw the cue back on every side, so the room size depends on your cue length. These are the minimum room sizes manufacturers publish for 6ft tables:
| Cue length | 6ft English (SAM) | 6ft American (Heemskerk) |
|---|---|---|
| 48in | 13'5″ × 10'11″ | 13'11″ × 10'11″ |
| 52in | 14'1″ × 11'7″ | 14'7″ × 11'7″ |
| 57in | 14'11″ × 12'5″ | 15'5″ × 12'5″ |
DPT recommends about 14ft × 11ft for its 6ft tables. If your room is only just big enough, a shorter cue helps for shots near the wall. Check the product page for the exact figure for the table you want, and read our guide What Room Size Do I Need For My Pool Table?
"6ft" is a size class, not an exact measurement, and English and American 6ft tables aren't the same size:
Buy the table for the game you'll play most. Each product page lists the playing area and outside dimensions for every size.
A sample of 6ft tables across the range, using the specifications from each product page.
| Table | Game | Playing area (6ft) | Slate | Weight (6ft) | 6ft price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DPT Omega Classic | English | Not stated | 3/4in (19mm) | 230kg | £1,449 |
| Buffalo Eliminator II | American | 178 × 89cm | 19mm, three-piece | 200kg | £2,395 |
| FMF Spirit Tournament | English | 160 × 81cm | 3/4in (19mm) | 212kg | £2,595 |
| SAM Balmoral Champion | English | 156 × 80cm | 20mm, one-piece | 210kg | £4,497 |
| SAM Vienna (dining) | American | 180 × 90cm | 22mm, three-piece | 220kg | £6,200 |
Almost every 6ft table we sell has a slate bed. Slate stays flat and level and gives a consistent roll. MDF tables are cheaper and lighter, but the bed can sag or warp over time. A slate 6ft table still weighs over 200kg, so check the route into the room before you order. For more on the difference, read Slate vs MDF Pool Table: What's the Difference.
If the table has to share a dining room, several of our 6ft tables come as pool dining tables, including the DPT Avant Garde 2.0, the Dynamic Diner, the FMF Elixir and Xcalibur, the Naroki and the SAM Vienna, Madrid, Oporto and Classic. See all pool dining tables.
Delivery is included on most tables to mainland England and Wales, and installation is included on most American and premium slate-bed tables. Deliveries involving stairs carry an extra charge. Each product page shows exactly what's included, and the full terms are in our Delivery & Installation policy.
If your room can't comfortably take a 7ft table, yes. A 6ft slate table plays properly for home games. If you play in a league, practising on a 7ft table is closer to what you'll play on.
Yes. We sell both. English 6ft tables have a smaller playing area and use 2in balls; American 6ft tables are larger and use 57mm balls.
The 6ft slate tables compared above weigh between 200kg and 230kg. Each product page gives the weight for every size.
