Question 19

What is the difference between a snooker table and a pool table?

Accepted Answer

The difference between a snooker table and a pool table comes down to dimensions. Generally, a snooker table is larger than a pool table, also called a billiards table. The increased size is due to the fact that a snooker game typically uses a total of 21 balls, compared to the 9 to 15 used during a pool game. Both types of gaming tables have six pockets, but those on a snooker table are usually smaller than those on a pool table because snooker balls tend to be smaller than billiard balls. On 1stDibs, find a range of billiard and snooker tables.

Question 20

Are end tables taller than coffee tables?

Accepted Answer

Yes, end tables are generally taller than coffee tables.

The term “end table” is frequently used interchangeably with “coffee table,” and while these two furnishings have much in common, each table type offers its own distinctive benefits in your space.

Your end table is likely going to stand as tall as the arms of your sofa, and its depth will match the seating. These attributes allow for tucking the table neatly at the end of your sofa in order to provide an elevated surface between your seating and the wall. End tables are accent pieces — they’re a close cousin to side tables, but side tables, not unlike the show-stealing low-profile coffee table, are intended to be positioned prominently and have more to do with the flow and design of a room than an end table, which does a great job but does it out of the way of everything else.
