Have you ever dreamed of having a pool table in your home? If you’ve been wondering how to turn your dinner table into a pool table, Fusiontables has created an ingenious solution that’s revolutionizing home entertainment. Pool tables are undeniably fun, whether you’re an expert player or just enjoy the occasional game with friends and family. They’re perfect for parties, casual gatherings, and creating memorable moments that bring people together.

But for most of us, that dream quickly crashes into reality with one simple question: “Where am I going to put it?”

Traditional pool tables are massive pieces of furniture. They’re extremely heavy, require a dedicated room, and take up so much space that they essentially eliminate any other use for that area. For apartment dwellers, homeowners with limited square footage, or anyone who doesn’t want to sacrifice an entire room to a single piece of furniture, a pool table has always seemed like an impossible luxury.

Until now.

The Space Problem Most Homeowners Face

Modern living spaces are getting smaller, not larger. Whether you’re in a city apartment, a suburban home with an open floor plan, or simply trying to make the most of every square foot, the challenge is the same: how do you create a home that’s both functional and fun?

We’ve all been there. You want to entertain, you want your home to be a place where people want to gather, but you also need practical furniture that serves daily needs. The idea of dedicating valuable space to something you’ll only use occasionally just doesn’t make sense, especially when quality furniture requires careful space planning.

This is exactly why multifunctional furniture has become such a game changer in modern interior design. Today’s best furniture pieces work harder, serving multiple purposes without compromising on style or quality. Just as modern furniture from brands like Article have redefined what we expect from our homes, convertible dining pool tables are transforming how we think about entertainment spaces.

Enter Fusiontables: The Belgian Innovation That Changes Everything

In 1997, a team of designers and engineers at Saluc, a Belgian company headquartered in Callenelle, had a revolutionary idea. Saluc is already the world leader in manufacturing high quality pool balls under the legendary Aramith brand, so they know a thing or two about billiards. But they also recognized a huge gap in the market.

Pool enthusiasts who loved contemporary design were stuck with traditional, bulky pool tables that looked completely out of place in modern homes. Meanwhile, design conscious homeowners who would have loved to own a pool table couldn’t justify the space.

The Saluc team asked themselves: what if we could create a pool table that doesn’t look like a pool table? What if it could be beautiful enough to be the centerpiece of your dining room, sophisticated enough to blend seamlessly with modern decor, and functional enough to use every single day?

The result became Fusiontables, a line of stunning dining pool tables that transform from elegant dinner tables into professional quality pool tables in less than 60 seconds.

How Fusiontables Actually Work

Here’s where it gets really interesting. The engineers at Saluc didn’t just slap a dining top onto a pool table and call it a day. They completely reimagined what a convertible table could be, introducing several patented technologies that make the Fusion table unlike anything else on the market.

The Easy-Lift System

One of the biggest challenges with any dining/pool table is the height difference. Pool tables need to be 32.5 inches high for optimal play, while dining tables are typically 29.5 inches. That three inch difference might not sound like much, but it makes all the difference in comfort and playability.

Fusiontables solved this with their patented Easy-Lift system. Using spring assisted technology, you can raise or lower the entire table with minimal effort. The system requires zero maintenance, features an auto lock mechanism for safety, and includes auto leveling to ensure your table stays perfectly flat whether you’re dining or playing. No wobbling, no adjusting, just smooth, effortless transformation.

The Flat Pocket System

Traditional pool tables have pockets that hang down underneath, creating an obvious “pool table look” that screams “game room furniture.” They’re also impractical if you want to store things or have seating that slides underneath.

Fusiontables created an ingenious flat pocket system using memory nylon. When you’re playing pool and balls drop into the pockets, the nylon extends underneath the table to catch them. But when you remove the balls, the pockets return to a completely flat position, invisible from any angle.

Even better? At the end of your game, you can slide metallic strips over each of the six pockets and store your pool balls right inside the table’s slim 4.5 inch profile. Everything you need stays with the table, hidden in plain sight. This innovative design adheres to furniture safety standards while maintaining its sleek aesthetic.

Professional Grade Playing Surface

Don’t let the sleek design fool you. This is a serious pool table that meets the exact specifications of a regulation 7 foot American pool table. The playing surface is a single piece of precision cut 19mm natural slate, not the typical three piece slate that requires careful alignment and constant adjustment.

That one piece slate sits on Fusion’s rigid SpaceFrame, eliminating all the leveling issues common with traditional tables. The table also features K66 cushions, considered the gold standard for rebound consistency and precision, along with Simonis cloth, the worldwide benchmark for high quality pool table fabric. You can choose from 25 different cloth colors to match your interior design.

Transform in 60 Seconds

The transformation process is surprisingly simple. For dining, three beautiful table tops create a generous surface that comfortably seats up to 10 people, with matching benches that slide perfectly underneath. All billiard accessories are discreetly stored within the table’s 4.5 inch profile.

When it’s time to play, simply slide the benches out, remove the three lightweight table tops, retrieve your cues and balls from the integrated storage, engage the Easy-Lift system to raise the table to playing height, and you’re ready to go. No tools, no complicated mechanisms, no heavy lifting. Just simple, elegant functionality.

Design Options to Match Any Style

One of the most impressive aspects of Fusiontables is how customizable they are. The tables come in powder coated steel (aluminum grey, satin white, or satin black) or brushed stainless steel for the ultimate luxury option.

Wood finishes include Vintage Oak, Walnut Select, Grey Oak, White Oak, and Wenge, each bringing its own character to your space. The Vintage collection is particularly striking, combining reclaimed wood aesthetics with a post industrial metal frame that evokes the ambiance of an old Brooklyn workshop in a sophisticated, contemporary way.

For those wanting something truly unique, the Crystal Mirage Glass Tops can be customized with high resolution prints using cutting edge technology. I’ve seen these used brilliantly in wine cellars, corporate offices, and modern homes with abstract art designs. It’s a conversation starter that elevates the table from furniture to art piece, much like unique statement furniture pieces that transform ordinary rooms into extraordinary spaces.

The Rock Reverso Collection offers the ultimate in versatility, with ceramic panels that provide two different surfaces in one table top. The ceramic side is incredibly resilient: stain resistant, chemical resistant, fire and heat resistant, scratch resistant, and even has antibacterial and antifungal properties.

Complete Your Space

Fusiontables also offers a complete collection of matching furniture including chairs, benches, LED lighting, and even a unique cue holder made from the same phenolic material as Aramith billiard balls. Every table comes with a comprehensive accessory kit including Aramith pool balls, wooden cues and racks, chalk, cleaning supplies, and everything else you need to start playing immediately.

Investment and Value

A Fusiontable is an investment, with prices starting around $8,200. That might seem steep until you consider what you’re getting: a professional quality pool table AND a designer dining table that seats 10, all in one space saving package.

Compare that to buying both pieces separately. A quality dining table that seats 10 people typically runs $2,000 to $4,000. A regulation pool table with professional grade components easily costs $3,000 to $6,000 or more. You’re also saving the cost and space of a dedicated game room.

When you factor in the Belgian craftsmanship, patented technology, premium materials, and the space you’re saving, the value proposition becomes clear. Plus, like quality investment furniture, well made pieces last for decades, not years.

Space Requirements

The table measures 230cm x 134cm x 75cm (90.5″ x 52.75″ x 29.5″) with a playing surface of 192cm x 96cm. You’ll need a minimum room size of 4.38m x 3.42m (171″ x 134″), though 4.90m x 3.95m (192″ x 154″) is optimal for comfortable cueing from all sides.

Keep in mind that unlike traditional pool tables that sit unused most of the time, your Fusion table will function as your dining table every single day, making far better use of your space.

Perfect for Multiple Settings

Fusiontables work beautifully in homes, particularly in open concept living/dining areas, finished basements, modern lofts, and vacation homes where entertainment is key. If you’re planning to host gatherings, a Fusiontable provides both dining and entertainment in one elegant package.

Forward thinking companies are also discovering their benefits in conference rooms (meetings by day, team bonding by night), employee lounges, and client entertainment spaces. High end hotels and boutique accommodations use them to create memorable guest experiences that differentiate their properties.

Why This Matters

In a world filled with disposable furniture and fickle trends, consumers are demanding products with strong identity and lasting value. We want furniture that adapts to our lifestyle, not the other way around. We value quality time with family and friends. We need homes that are both beautiful and functional.

The Fusiontables concept addresses this by mixing sleek, minimalist design with exceptional functionality. It’s furniture that brings people together across all generations for enjoyable, memorable moments. Just like how brands have revolutionized affordable quality furniture, Fusiontables is revolutionizing how we think about entertainment furniture.

The Bottom Line

A Fusiontable isn’t just a pool table that converts to a dining table. It’s a complete reimagining of what furniture can be. It’s a conversation piece, a gathering place, and a smart solution to the eternal challenge of making the most of our living spaces.

For pool enthusiasts who never thought they’d have room for a table, this is your answer. For design lovers who want furniture that’s as beautiful as it is functional, this delivers. For anyone who wants their home to be a place where people love to gather, where memories are made over both meals and games, this is exactly what you’ve been looking for.

The question isn’t really “where am I going to put a pool table?” anymore. The question is “why haven’t I made my dining table work this hard before?”
