Where the rest of SAM's range keeps its cabinet plain, this one's turned and carved along the legs and rails, finished in a rich mahogany veneer that actually catches the light under a proper lamp. It reads as furniture before it reads as a games table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderneath that detailing sits the same one-piece, diamond-honed slate that runs through the rest of SAM's range, so the roll's exactly as true as anything else they build. I'd put this one in a formal living room, a snug, or a library-style games room, somewhere it earns its place as furniture rather than a converted garage nobody looks twice at the legs in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you just want something that plays brilliantly and the carving doesn't matter to you, the Magno Champion does the same job for less at the smaller sizes. Here, you're paying the difference for how it looks in the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You'll Love the Royal Class\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarved mahogany cabinet\u003c\/strong\u003e – turned legs and carved rail detailing set it apart from SAM's plainer cabinets, built to look like furniture, not just equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne-piece, diamond-honed slate bed\u003c\/strong\u003e – the same true, consistent roll as SAM's commercial tables, just dressed in a finish suited to a formal room.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFreeplay, no coin mechanism\u003c\/strong\u003e – rack up whenever you like, with nothing to fit, service, or explain to guests.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree sizes to choose from\u003c\/strong\u003e – 7ft, 8ft and 9ft, so you can pick the scale that actually suits your room.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSix Atlas cloth colours\u003c\/strong\u003e – Green, Black, Blue, Purple, Burgundy or Red, so the cloth can match the room rather than the other way round.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You Should Consider a SAM Pool Table\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSAM's been building slate-bed tables for decades, and it shows in the parts you don't see: the frame, how the slate's bedded and levelled, the consistency from one size to the next. Choosing SAM means backing a manufacturer whose commercial tables hold up in pool halls as often as living rooms, which says plenty about longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoosing Between the 7ft, 8ft and 9ft Royal Class American Pool Table\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing between the 7ft, 8ft and 9ft Royal Class really comes down to the room you're putting it in. The 9ft is closest to a full-size American pool table, and suits a dedicated games room or a genuinely large formal space where you want that presence and don't mind giving cues their fullest possible swing. The 8ft is where most buyers land for a decent-sized living room or library-style room, big enough to feel serious without needing an extension. The 7ft still carries the same carved cabinet and mahogany finish, so a smaller snug or study doesn't mean compromising on how it looks, just how much table you're playing on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe six Atlas cloth colours above are the standard choices for the Royal Class, and most buyers are happy picking straight from that range. Because this is the top of SAM's cabinet range, we get more requests for something a little different on this one than on any other table we sell, so if you're after a finish or detail beyond what's listed, get in touch and we'll talk through what's possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoyal Class Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Royal Class cabinet is finished in mahogany with a high-quality varnish veneer, a step up from SAM's standard cabinet colours, and it's built on the same one-piece, diamond-honed slate bed as the rest of the range, so the play quality matches the presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAvailable sizes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7ft · 8ft · 9ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSlate bed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOne-piece, diamond-honed slate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrame \u0026amp; construction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid cabinet construction, ornate styling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBall return\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFreeplay (no coin mechanism)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStandard cloth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAtlas cloth (Green, Black, Blue, Purple, Burgundy, Red)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCabinet finish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMahogany, high-quality varnish veneer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1016\/4276\/4637\/files\/atlas-cloth-colour-swatch.png?v=1788379313\" alt=\"Atlas American Speed Cloth colour swatch chart showing the standard cloth colour options\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTable dimensions and weight by size:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eExterior (L x W x H)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230 × 130 × 83cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e275kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e254 × 142 × 83cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e310kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e284 × 157 × 83cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e350kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRoom Size Requirements by Cue Length\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the best playing experience, allow enough space to use a full-length cue comfortably from every side of the table.
