Anyone else have an Olio? Anyone else have an Olio?

About 15 years ago I bought a 9' Olio table. It's basically an Asian knock-off of the Brunswick Gold Crown, but a pretty good one. For a while they were used in some of the ladies pro tour events.

I'm pretty sure mine is this one, with a slightly different pattern on the skirts:

except my slate is Italian, not Brazilian (doubt it matters), so I guess they changed that. And my corner aprons are copper colored metal, not chrome.

My problem is that the cushions have lost a lot of their bounce and I need to replace them. I'm wondering if I could put Brunswick cushions on, as I don't want something that will deteriorate again. And I haven't found any Olio replacements online anyway, even at the manufacturer site. I guess I could call them but I'd prefer not to put the same back on, as I think they should last forever.

Any advice?

I would post this over at AZBilliards forums - there's a sub-forum where table mechanics respond to questions posted.

Hello, I have found your discussion this morning and have a questions.
I know it has been a while that you had this posts, but how was the outcome?
Did you get to change to the new cushions? If so, what kind?
I am looking at the olios used 9' that someone is selling, and there is a chance that I have to change the cushions.
