Review on Experience Professional Play With STIGA STS 185 Table Tennis Table by Ethan Carpenter

Revainrating 4 out of 5

had i paid the full price I probably would have been more disappointed. As far as assembly it is straight forward .

OK, #1 I got this on lighting sale so the rating is based on the price I bought it for. It came well protected on a crate box so no complaints there. All parts were in order and I actually had two screws left over which is kind of scary but i triple checked and they were extra. There was a 2inch long factory repaired ding at an middle edge which is kinda of weak, had i paid the full price I probably would have been more disappointed. As far as assembly it is straight forward but a complete nightmare in how many bolts, nuts and especially screws are required. Get a friend to help you otherwise it'll be pretty much be an all day activity(I watched a couple movies while I assembled to keep the rage in check). DO NOT over screw your screws as they will strip out in the board and be worthless(get your glue on), i just set my power drill to a very low setting and still finished each by hand which really slows the process down but is absolutely necessary. Once assembled the table is great, plays great, and folds great.I don't expect this table to move well based on how it went together, as least not worth the hassle to move it anyway. I'm no ping pong expert but i'd probably have to take one star away at full price.

Pros
  • 0.75-Inch Top
Cons
  • Expensive price relative to other table tennis tables on the market
