We hired a professional insatller from the store. Best [$] I spent on this endeavor! The table was play ready in 14 minutes. It took a whopping 40 percent longer than the 10 minutes advertised on the box to be "PLAY READY", but it was worth the wait. This table is sturdy and plays well. I would recommed this product.

Me and a friend of mine put this table together in about half an hour. Granted, I am a contractor and he is a mechanic, but the assembly was not nearly as confusing as I've been reading in other reviews. Also, I at first thought that two of the locking supports were installed backwards at the factory (as mentioned by several other reviewers). After spending some time considering drilling out the rivets and reassembling them correctly, I discovered that the brackets swivel 360 degrees; 30 seconds later everything was aligned correctly and assembly was not a problem. The only real issue for me was the weight - my friend and I are both well over 6'0 tall and physically fit, and it was all we could do to move and load/assemble this table. Other than that, we are very pleased.

I got this table about two months ago and I still can't stop playing. I did have a lower grade table before and the two don't come close, this one rocks.

As said before, the table is very heavy. The packaging alone probably adds 40 lbs. My biggest gripe is quality control at the factory. The bottom support board on my table was cut and drilled wrong causing the table to be off center. I had to cut and drill a new piece of wood to fit. I was also missing hardware to complete the assembly. Once these problems were fixed the table works and looks great. I would recommend this table with the warning that you may have some problems with assembly.

This is a nice table. Folds up with little effort, rolls easily across floors and has a solid top. ***THE CONS***The side skirts are flimsy which make it a little difficult to fold up. While table is still packaged it is very heavy and can hardly be moved by two grown men. "10 minutes to play" now that was funny I'm a skilled mechanic and carpenter and took me at least two hours to assemble. Table came from factory with two hinge bracket on backwards so had to be removed and installed correctly. Also came with four left folding arms instead of two left and two right, still works but is not right. Net brackets are cheap and flimsy but seams like most are this way.

This table was great [...] assembly is not going to take 15 minutes. more like 2 hours. The last thing is that this table is super heavy. It took 3 full grown men to put it into my dads truck. Besides that it looks like an awesome table and I can't weight to play on it.

First of all, this table is heavy. Setting it up took more like an hour, not the ten minutes stiga claims. In terms of performance, this table rocks. Its obviously not a tournament level table but it has a consistent bounce and nice surface.

This table was a birthday and housewarming gift from my adult son, who is also a good and frequent player. We picked it up at the store (good customer service, helping us load the HEAVY carton on top of his vehicle), and took it home for "10 minutes from box to play," excited to get to use it that evening. His research had led him to choose this table, as a fast way to get going. Over two hours later, we two mechanically inclined guys stopped assembling, to wait for help lifting the HEAVY panels into place (two normal adults can't pull off this step in the assembly; a third is needed to guide the support tubes). Once together and ready for play, we found that the center of the table is 1/4" lower than the ends, and had to put shims under the wheels. The included net and hardware would be a bad joke even for a [$] table, and the net was too short to even reach the flimsy brackets; so I had to order a real net set, using c-clamps to hold the ends of the net straps to the supports while waiting for the real net. At first attempt to fold up the table for rollaway, I found that 3 of the 4 locking braces had been reverse-installed at the factory, and the fourth one was the wrong part. It took another hour lying under the propped-up table to swap brace positions, and re-install the wrong part in a way that it could function (relocated the bracket with 4 new holes in the bottom of the table).Each end of the 4 plastic playing surface corner protector caps protruded slightly above the plane of the playing surface and had to be fastened differently to be out of the way. Now it's a good table. Just be ready with at least 3 people, power tools, extra time, and lots of patience with the "10-minute" assembly instructions. I would not recommend this table, simply for its difficulty to make ready for high-level play.

This is really a great table. My family plays with it daily and we have much fun. Pretty easy assembly, cool look, and folds up greatly and easily for storage.

This is better than some competition tables I've played on. Thick table provides lively play and accurate ball response. The black surface provides excellent ball contrast. The table is VERY heavy (>300 lbs?). This is good for play but it makes setting it up very difficult. It took over an hour for my brother and I to set up, I don't know where they got this "quick play" 10 minute setup idea. Overall excellent table, better than some of stiga's higher priced tables.
