It’s got some unique features that make it stand out from the crowd.First off, the carbon technology surface is super smooth and feels great to play on. Plus, it has integrated ball storage, which is a huge plus. The frame and structure are also super sturdy, so you can rest assured it won’t break easily. And the best part? It folds up easily, making it perfect for storage. Oh, and the premium black matte finish is just stunning! You’ll be the envy of all your friends when you show it off.When the package arrived, I was impressed by how well it was packaged. It was super secure and didn’t budge an inch during transit, which is a huge plus. And guess what? The ping pong table was in perfect condition! I’ve ordered a lot of big, heavy items in the past, and they’ve always gotten damaged in shipping. But not this time!Assembly was a breeze. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and it only took my wife and oldest son to get it set up. Just make sure you have enough people to help you move it, or you might end up with a hernia! The hardest part was installing the easy glide wheels onto the frame. I tried to do it myself at first, but it was a bit tricky. But once I got some help, it went smoothly.And the best part? It comes with everything you need to get started. So, if you’re looking for a new ping pong table, look no further. The STIGA Carbon18 Table Tennis Table is the perfect choice!Once I put it together, I had to give it a try. I couldn’t stop staring at the sleek black finish. All my other ping pong tables have been green or blue, so when I saw this finish, I was thrilled and had to buy it. The ping pong ball bounces great on this carbon 18 table. I’m not a pro, but if you want quality and performance, look no further. Oh, and did I mention the integrated ball storage? I mean, seriously, this table has integrated ball storage. It’s a game-changer! I’m always on the hunt for ping pong balls, but now I can just reach down and grab another one. The only downside is that after a round, there are ping pong balls everywhere. I don’t have to chase them during the game, but I do have to clean up after myself.After beating my wife and son 10-0 and feeling like I should try out for the Olympics, it was time to put it away. This ping pong table is a breeze to fold up and store. It even has a locking mechanism to keep it folded up in its thin profile. And the best part?

If you’re in the market for a ping pong table with a black matte finish, a sturdy frame, easy-to-glide wheels, and integrated ball storage, look no further. Just buy it and thank me later.

I could tell this ping pong table was high quality from the moment it was delivered. The packaging was secure and tight with no damage which is unusual for large packages. The assembly was a piece of cake, took us maybe 15 minutes max. Our house has four very competitive teenagers and this is the perfect addition to our game room. The black and silver design makes it look very modern, a lot better than the old-fashioned green tables. I like having all the balls stored in one spot so they all don’t get lost. We can easily grab another ball from the storage area instead of running across the room to get a stray ball. Of course, we have to pick up after ourselves after we're done, but in the moment the ball storage keeps the competition going. The net is easy to attach and is even easier to adjust the tension. I love that the table has a playback mode for when somebody wants to play by themselves or practice for the next competition. Whenever the kids want to do something else, one person can easily fold it up and it takes up very little space in our game room. This table is already at work offering fun and entertainment for our family and the friends we invite over. We are very satisfied with this purchase and if you’re considering buying one, this is is my recommendation.

I purchased this STIGA table for the rec room at our family cabin and it has been a game changer. Both my wife and I (as well as our kids) find ourselves spending a bulk of our indoor time playing it on weekends. We also rent our cabin out as a vacation rental and the number of reviews that have mentioned the STIGA ping pong table has pleasantly surprised me. It’s been an incredible value add to our cabin whether it’s kids looking for something to do in the evening or occupying the whole family on a rainy weekend at the cabin. As the pictures state, assembly is a breeze as it’s truly 95% assembled out of the box. I love the quality of the steel frame and locking soft casters. The quality of the net also stands out as it does not sag like nets on our previous table have for us. It is easy to fold and stow flat against the wall when we need the space for other activities. This table looks very sleek as the anchor of our cabin rec room and I highly recommend it.

The separate table halves really come in clutch, since I don't have a ton of room in my warehouse these are able to store in different areas. Ball storage is a sweet addition so you can let a few balls fly off the table and just worry about them later since you have extras ready!! For the price, I didn't expect a super high quality table, but this seems like a professional build and the net just clips on. Took me about 7-8 minutes to setup, literally just had to attach the legs and net, and DONE. Overally, highly recommend.

Arrived so quickly and well-packaged. The ball storage compartment is going to be a game changer! No more hunting around for balls when we want to play. Quality product!
