The Ultimate Guide to the QUESLA 9FT Slate Pool Table

Precision Engineering & Luxury Design for the Professional Australian Home.

In 2026, the 9FT billiard table remains the undisputed “Gold Standard” for serious players. Unlike smaller pub-style tables, a 9FT surface provides the expansive “long-pot” opportunities and strategic depth required for professional-level play. At DMA Online, our QUESLA 9FT Slate Pool Table has become the definitive choice for those who refuse to compromise on quality.This guide explores the structural integrity, playability, and room requirements of the 9FT QUESLA, while highlighting why our unique premium slate pool tables are the best investment for your entertainment space.

1. Structural Mastery: Solid Timber & Bluestone Slate

A table of this magnitude requires a foundation that will not flinch under pressure. The QUESLA 9FT is built with a Solid Black Timber Frame, specifically engineered to support its 20mm thick slate surface. Weighing in with a slate mass of 232kg (and a much higher gross weight), this table offers the dead-still stability required for tournament-grade breaks.

While many affordable pool tables use MDF, the QUESLA range is strictly slate. This ensures that the playing surface will never warp or sag, even in the diverse Australian climate. Coupled with adjustable leg levellers, you are guaranteed a 10/10 level playing field on any flooring surface.

2. The Playability: English Pro Felt & Ball Nets

The texture of your game is dictated by the cloth. The QUESLA 9FT comes equipped with Professional English Felt, available in seven distinct colours including vibrant Blue, traditional Green, and the high-impact Red. This felt is designed for “speed”—allowing the ball to glide with minimal friction while maintaining the grip necessary for advanced “English” (cue ball spin).

Furthering the professional feel are the Pro Ball Nets. These are not just functional; they provide that satisfying “drop” sound that only a high-end billiard table can produce.

Pool Table Room Size Requirements Australia

3. Room Size: Precise Measurements for the 9FT Scale

A common mistake is underestimating the space needed for a full cue stroke. Based on our 2025 specs, the 9FT QUESLA measures approx. 275cm x 152cm. To play comfortably with a standard 58-inch cue, your room should be at least 4.2m x 5.5m.

If you have a smaller room, you can still enjoy the 9FT experience by utilizing shorter cues for tight corner shots. If space is a major concern, we recommend viewing our foldable pool tables or the 3-in-1 slate dining tables which offer professional play with multi-functional versatility.

5. Maintaining Your QUESLA 9FT Slate Pool Table

To ensure your QUESLA 9FT Slate Pool Table maintains its professional playing standards for decades, regular maintenance is essential. While the bluestone slate is incredibly durable, the English Pro Felt requires consistent care. We recommend using a dedicated horsehair brush to sweep the cloth after every session, moving toward the pockets to remove chalk dust and debris.

Furthermore, keeping your QUESLA 9FT Slate Pool Table in a climate-controlled environment will preserve the solid timber frame’s finish. Professional players often refer to the WPA Equipment Specifications to understand the importance of table leveling and cloth tension. By following these tournament-level standards, your QUESLA 9FT Slate Pool Table will continue to provide the best rebound and ball speed in the industry.

Investing in a high-quality cover for your QUESLA 9FT Slate Pool Table is also a 10/10 move. This protects the felt from UV rays and dust, ensuring that the vibrant red or blue color stays sharp. Whether you are practicing for a local tournament or hosting a weekend social, the QUESLA 9FT Slate Pool Table stands as a testament to quality Australian gaming.
