JOOLARally TL Professional MDF Indoor Ping Pong Table w/Quick Clamp Table Tennis Net & Post Set - 10 Minute Easy Assembly - Corner Ball Holders - Tournament Quality - Includes Playback Mode

I don't write many reviews, mainly due to laziness on my part. :) However, this table deserves some love.We've had this table for about a month and a half and it has exceeded my expectations in just about every way. I've played many, many games of pong on several different tables since high school (I'm 46 now). I've always wanted my own ping pong table and now that we have the space, I started looking for a decent table to play on with my boys. I found this table on sale for just under $400 around Thanksgiving and after the obligatory searching, comparing, reading reviews, etc... I decided to take the plunge. I'm very happy I did.The table was packed decently and survived a three foot drop on to concrete from the delivery chaps who ignored the messaging on the box to avoid such things. Cringing as I opened the box at finding a busted corner or crack in the table from the abuse, I was pleasantly surprised to find it in flawless condition. You'll need some muscle for the unopened box to get this guy into the spot you want, but once you've maneuvered the beast to it's location in your home you should be good to go.Unpacking and assembly was straightforward with reasonable instructions - my 18 year old son and I did it in about 45 minutes and we did it at a leisurely pace. The table is 90% assembled, you just have to attach the wheel assemblies to each side of the table with some brackets and hardware. We basically assembled it upside down in the box to protect the table surface. The only remaining item was to attach the corner ball holders through snap-on ears and a single screw each. The table is in two separate pieces and I was able to lift each side on to it's rollers by myself (my son had deserted me by that point), so each half of the table was manageable from a weight perspective.All materials are quality. The supporting legs and under carriage are sturdy and well made. The table surface is smooth with no blemishes and solid. The net is nicely made and connected to the table with two large alligator clips with metal posts that the net slides into. My favorite feature is the set of ball holders built into each corner of the table, with each holding 3 balls in a grippy foam to keep them in place. Those are very handy so you shouldn't be searching for balls with 12 balls at your disposal.Using some 3-star balls, the bounce from the table is great and plays very nicely. We have played many a game on it in the last several weeks and I'm happy every game. You can easily tilt either side of the table up (with a nice locking clip to keep it in place) for solo play or for storage. This is a great table and I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. If you're looking for a good quality table at a reasonable price, look no further.

For a "Professional Grade" table, this set hits the mark. DELIVERY was quick. Final delivery was done by a Local Freight Service here is San Diego. No Fault of Amazon, but to illustrate the quality of packing I am detailing the condition: The table comes in one fairly heavy box. At the site-rated 190+ lbs I recommend 2 people not only for the weight but more-so the size is unwieldy . Fit leaned over in the back of a small pickup from my roll up doors in the back to the front doors of the office. I estimate the box dimensions at about 5'x 5'x about 6" . Despite the box having a little flayed cardboard, the contents were perfect.PACKING is excellent with everything covered, or in taped boxes or cardboard backed blister packs for the hardware. Even the box had a textile plastic sheet on each interior side to deter punctures or denting or scratching. All very effective. The tops are supported on all 4 corners with very well engineered rubber "caps" that I kept using during assembly to protect the surfaces and corners from the wall and floors.ASSEMBLY was easy and it is exactly as described "90% assembled" you need only a Phillips (star point) screwdriver for the screws that hold the ball holders on each corner and 2 wrenches ( do not recall the size but you will need your own) to attach the brackets and wheels. Note: I unpacked, assembled, moved, and set up completely by myself so if you are surprising the family ( in my case, my co-workers) it can be done:) After unpacking, I assembled the two table halves in a space of about 10'x 6' which is less that the space needed to USE the table. Assembly really did only take about 15 minutes.SET UP was a breeze, I rolled each independent half off commercial carpet, onto solid floor, then on to carpet again and about 80' to the destination. Tables fold out easy and have threaded levelers on 4 legs and 8 locking casters that can be locked and unlocked with your feet. Net is attached with clamps, then a beaded chain slips into slits in the metal net bracket and a knob raises the bracket post to tighten the string and chain thus tightening the net. It is a very cool set up and looks great. The Play surface has a mild and consistent polyurethane coating that is semi gloss and wipes clean easily.PLAY the surface coating is great and the bounce is very good, Seamless play field, skirted edges provide strength and protection. The 4-corner ball holders ( each holds 3) and score counters work great and everyone seems to love the table from the aesthetics, to the cost ( accounting and the President were impressed) and the play ability are all a hit. I can very easily recommend this table. Reach me with any questions and I will help anyway I can.

I was worried of item being damaged. Especially considering i held the item 1 day in shipping to work around an issue. Table showed up absolutely perfect not one scratch or dent. It’s beautiful. Put together pretty easy and I did it myself. I would suggest the 20$ any room delivery though. In the box it’s a pig.

I was pleased first of all, with the delivery service. They did an excellent job and I had paid extra for the specific room delivery. It was worth it. Regular Amazon drivers you see daily do not deliver these heavy tables. The box arrived with a few skinned places on it, but nothing concerning. The table wasn't damaged at all and was very nicely packaged including poly strapping for stability inside and out. All parts were there and in excellent shape. I wanted this Joola Rally TL table above others due to the ball storage on each corner as it is much easier to continue play. The finish is very nice and the assembly was not difficult, although if you have someone to help, I would certainly recommend it as the table is heavy, even being in two sections. It's a great choice for recreational play, and a great addition to our game room. My wife and I used to play ping pong many years ago and now that we are retired, we are really enjoying playing again. The grand kids also love it. I highly recommend this Joola table.
