How much is it? What is your budget? Are you a casual user or do you want to take it more seriously? From all the tables that I have seen at costco i'm not too happy with their looks nor their quality.

I would buy used... When I was shopping for a table, I saw some really good deals on craigslist.

the problem with buying used is you unless you play on it for a while, you wont know the condition of the slate. If the table and cloth look like they have been well taken care of then you can pretty much assure that the slate is in good shape. I bought my table new, used tables are significantly cheaper, if you can find a good used table than that is a good bet.

Unfortunately, I would not really be able to tell if the slate is in good condition as I have never owned a table..
But I wanted to know the size of the usual pool table in a pool hall..

I spent a fair sum of money on a table a few years ago. It is now collecting dust.
