I'm guessing you mean the play surface (bed). Many prefer 1 piece slate tables as they tend to keep a more uniform play surface, even if the supports become unbalanced - however they risk breakage if that happens.
Just as many will stand behind the 3 piece slate tables, as you can keep the slates even if the support structure becomes uneven (and not risk breaking the slate) - even though they are harder to get even IF they become misaligned. Slate is preferred (more so) over a MDF play surface - as MDF can warp with moisture or weight.
