Review on STIGA SensorScore Table Tennis Scoring System With Innovative Sensor Technology by Fred Whitehead

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Close but not usable for full size table

What a disappointment. The best thing about this device turns out to be the Revain return policy. I have a Stiga Advantage Competition-Ready table from Revain. It's regulation size. Excellent table, I might mention.The SensorScore display attaches to one of two included net brackets. The net connects to the display on one end and the other bracket on the other. That's problem number one and kindof game-over: The net is not long enough to reach the two ends on a regulation width table. Since the net has one of the sensors, you need to use it, if you want the net sensor, and you need to use the included bracket to hold the display. So even if you don't want the net sensor, you need the bracket which in our case doesn't work with the Stiga net that came with the table.Problem two. Mfr (in the Q&A section above) says you can use the score device manually. That would be perfect, as I don't need sensor, just a way to easily keep up with the scorse. AAAAH. Nope. The manual up/down buttons will work, but ONLY after a game has started by triggering a table or net sensor. It will not work in full manual mode or with the sensors disconnected. And that my friend is the deal breaker of deal breakers, and a crying shame, since this is the ONLY device of its kind I could find anywhere!Looking for help at the referred website fails, and I couldn't help but notice that the site does not even list this product. So there you have it. i will carefully repackage the product--as I'm pretty sure the last buyer did, as it didn't look like I was the first person to open it--and request a return. Maybe enough comments will be received by the mfr that the version 2.0 will be better. I'll be on the lookout for it.

Pros
  • We love this automatic scorer! It really is great. It makes playing much more enjoyable!
Cons
  • Does not fit a standard size table. And now I’m outside the refund window so can’t even return it.
