Review on Competition-Ready STIGA Advantage Professional Table Tennis Table - 10 Min. Assembly, Single Player Playback & Compact Storage! by Dean Wilson

Solid, reasonably priced table

TL;DR: If you want a good mid-grade table for home use this is a good decision.Just got done setting up this table after the scheduled delivery (which is such a good idea for large items like this!) and I must admit I am impressed.Pros:- Price: It is a "medium level" table for sure but the construction quality is nice and it's $400 which is not that much.- Install: As other reviewers have stated it's 8 bolts which is insanely easy to other Ping Pong table installations I have done in the past.- Quality: It is a MID-GRADE TABLE! Do not expect professional status anything! But, this table is well built and bounces like it should. Again, this is not a professional set up but for home/rec use it is totally reasonable and what you would expect (if not better than) for the price.- Two piece design: I have never owned a 2 piece table and am now realizing I am quite dumb for not buying one of these sooner because it takes up significantly less space than a convention fold up and is way easier to move when folded.- Net clips: This, again, is me just always buying low grade tables in the past but these net clips are freaking sweet as they not only level the middle of the table perfectly on both sides but take about 3 seconds to install each side making assemble and breakdown hilariously quick and easy.- One person assembly: I put the table together by myself in about 15 minutes. I wouldn't recommend a smaller/not strong person to attempt a single person assembly but if you can pick up each side of the table by yourself fairly easily you will be fine.- Packaging was great and despite damage to the box my table did not suffer any major damage.Cons:- The net came with a big rip in it (see pics) and is of lesser quality than other pieces included with table.- Getting a ping pong table shipped will probably always result in a tiny bit of damage at the least. I got lucky and only have a few small knicks on the bottom side of the table and a slightly ripped net but others seem to have chipped tops, etc.I did want to add a bit of info for those of you considering this table:- If you want a table for your home, don't want to go buy it in person (because you are lazy or don't have a car big enough), and have $400 to spend I really think this is a great table for the money.- I have owned a few tables over the years but always in the $200-$300 range and this is a HUGE step up from those in all respects.- I would suggest putting the two braces and one bolt through the wheel side of the bottom bracket assembly when putting them on. It makes the whole situation much easier (see pics for explanation).- I would also suggest to be vigilant and NOT OVER TIGHTEN the bolts. Once your washer starts to deform you are good to go and anything further will lose you sturdiness.
